Re: Additional Business Activities at Liquid Nation / Skate World
Dear Mr. Christenson:
I have discussed the issue of activity associated with your business, which may occur outside of the
enclosed building, with the City Attorney. Subject to all applicable permitting requirements,
skateboard ramps may be located outdoors, and shall be considered as Accessory Structures that are
ancillary to the Principal Use of the property. Please bear in mind that Accessory Structures, which
are greater than thirty (30) inches in height, are subject to all setback requirements, and must be
located on the lot so that required setbacks are provided. The maximum height for Accessory
Structures is twelve (12) feet. Further, adequate parking to serve all activities associated with the
existing and the expanded business must be provided. The parking requirement is one space for each
300 square feet of gross floor area of the building, and one space for each 300 square feet of outdoor
area used for skateboard ramps and the like.
In order to obtain Zoning Department approval for your Occupational License, please provide a survey
or site plan showing parking locations and parking calculations as well as the location and height of all
skateboard ramps and other similar outdoor structures. As you are aware, all other Building Code
violations must be corrected, and final inspections made, before your Occupational License can be
issued. Since the business is in operation, it is imperative that these corrections be made immediately.
Please feel free to call me at 247-5817 with any questions.
Sincerely,
Sonya Doerr, AICP
