ATTACHMENT 2: ZONING MAP 6206 W ALAMEDA AVENUE, LAKEWOOD, COLORADO

Detailed Written Description Project: Alameda Self Storage Project No: 1544 Location: 6206 W. Alameda Ave Date: 02/05/16 This document is being submitted to request a Special Use Permit, for the property at 6206 W. Alameda to include Mini-Warehouse or Storage in this M-G-U zoned property. The property is a 48,077 sf (1.1 acre) parcel with an existing vacant buffet style restaurant, and associated parking. The proposed use of the property is to build a climate controlled mini-warehouse storage facility. The first floor will consist of a commercial / retail space occupying 60% of the required build to zone by 40 deep. The remainder of the first floor will be dedicated to rentable mini-warehouse spaces. The remaining floors will be 100% interior access mini-warehouse storage spaces. The site will be developed with a one way transportation pattern around a centrally located building, oriented on the north row. The existing eastern site access point will be removed and consolidated with a shared access on the adjacent east property. The building will consist of a masonry base with the required transparency and storefront access on the north property line. The upper stories will incorporate EIFS, Metal Panels, Curtain Wall Glass, and metal canopies, seeking to create detailing that both addresses the design standards illustrated in the zoning requirements as well as creating an associated link to the back of the residential properties to the west. The Supplemental Standards illustrated in section 17.4.3 of the Lakewood Zoning Ordinance, under sub-section O, are being addressed by limiting the exterior access units to the south and east elevation, such that they do not face the residential area or the public street frontage. Detailing of the building elevations is intended to create compatible architectural elements with the visible elements of the residential zone directly to the west. Ground Floor Activation: In addition to retail and sales for the self-storage facility we will provide a conference room, private workstations, free Wi-Fi, and a community printer/copy/fax/scanner. Tenants of the self-storage facility will be able to use the conference room to hold meetings which will include a large oval table, a large flat screen TV for presentations, and video conferencing. We will also provide personal workstations for tenants to conduct their business. These will be private workstations. The intention of the workstations will be to provide the tenant the ability to have a private call or private one-one meeting. The remainder of the space will be very open with a modern feel. The intention of the open space will have a coffee house feel with couches, high tables, and softer lighting to provide a relaxing feel. Our hope is that our users will engage with each other in order to have a community element.

Self-storage facilities have become a great incubator space for start-up s and small businesses. With flexible month to month lease options, a wide variety of storage options, and shared office environment, self-storage caters perfectly to small businesses. The office environment will be visible from the public realm through storefront glass, activating the street/pedestrian areas of the building. Business and storage activates will be visible to the community. Our business hours will be the following: Monday 9:30 AM 6:00 PM Tuesday 9:30 AM 6:00 PM Wednesday 9:30 AM 6:00 PM Thursday 9:30 AM 6:00 PM Friday 9:30 AM 6:00 PM Saturday 8:30 AM 5:00 PM Sunday 11:00 AM 3:00 PM We envision this space being used as follows: A small e-commerce business that is currently selling goods out of their home now has a flexible lease space to store their inventory safely and securely, we provide packing and shipping, which gives the tenant the ability to ship their sales and provides the small business a place to conduct meetings with potential clients. By providing an individual this service gives them the ability to: 1). Save Money: The customer does not have to rent warehouse and office space. Their business can be conducted under one roof. 2). Our leases are month to month. The small business now has more flexibility. If their business fails or grows they are not locked into a long term lease or having to pay termination fees. 3). We are a logistics company, it says it in our name, CUBESMART Self- Storage & Logistics. The business owner can fill orders and ship their products easily and efficiently all in one location. Fact: 30% of our customers are commercial customers. Our target market which is a 3-mile radius around our site could provide over 270 potential commercial customers. Source: Self-Storage Almanac Economics & Redevelopment: 1). Self-storage is an asset to small businesses. This is a win-win for the city of Lakewood and small business. Small businesses tend to choose self-storage because of the flexible month to month leases and the cost savings that self-storage provides versus keeping inventory in expensive retail or other commercial spaces. 2). In our 3-mile radius self-storage is under supplied by only having 3.9 square foot per person. This equates to over 500,000 square foot of storage needed in the immediate area. Fact: Denver metro has 7.5 square foot per person of supply. Our feasibility study indicates that the current supply of self-storage is 96% plus occupied. 3). There is also a lack of class A institutional quality assets in the 3-mile. The average age of the facilities in our 3-mile is 1992. The last self-storage built in our 3-mile radius was in 2006. The Uncle Bob s at 7605 W. Arizona Ave. Older self-storage facilities tended to not to provide climate control selfstorage which is a fairly new concept but is where the industry has been heading for the past 10 years. Customers like their belongings stored in

temperature controlled environments because their belongings tend to not age as quickly due to temperature changes and the belongings being stored are much more secure. Colorado has large temperaturee swings throughout the year and having belongings stored in an environment that does not change by more than 10 degrees can certainly prolong the life of a person belongings. Our feasibility studyy indicates that there is less than 1 square foot of storage per person that iss climate controlled in the 3-mile radius. This reason is certainly why we are very excited about this project because the demand will be very high for ourr product type. 4). Continue to redevelop the Alameda corridor with a pedestrian friendly and neighborhood service building. Example of our proposed layout: Retail Sales/Leasing Office OPEN SPACE Private Workstations Conference Room Amenities: The open space will add to a community feel and provide tenants of our facility the ability to use our WI FI, printer, copier and open area as a meeting place to host informal meetings or conduct work. Conference room will provide tenants a place to hold video conferencing or formal meetings.

Private workstations areas will be first come first serve. This area will provide the tenant the ability to have private phone calls or a space for more focused work. Please keep in mind that these are rough sketches and thoughts on how we would like to proceed with our development if a Special Use Permit is obtained. We believe that this concept and idea would be unique to Lakewood and would provide a great neighborhood service if approved. Sincerely, Pamlico Investments, Inc. & Arcwest Architects.

CCH Alameda, LLC 6206 W Alameda Ave. in Lakewood, Colorado. The applicant is requesting a Special Use Permit (SUP) to allow Mini- Warehouse or Storage use in the Mixed-Use General Urban (M-G-U) zone district. Date: November 17, 2015 Time: Location: Neighborhood Groups Notified: City Staff: In Attendance: 6:00PM 7:15PM Lakewood Cultural Center - Community Room 480 S Allison Parkway Lakewood, CO 80226 Alameda Gateway Community Association Erin Bravo, Planning - Development Assistance Paul Rice, Planning Manager - Development Assistance 3 Residents, including one City Council member, 3 Applicants, and two City Staff members were in attendance. This is a summary of the neighborhood meeting. It is not inclusive of all the details, but rather a summary of the main points discussed at the meeting. Meeting Agenda: Introduction Purpose of Meeting Explanation of the Special Use Permit Process Presentation by the Applicant Questions and Discussion with Citizens Closing Comments and Next Steps

Case # SU-15-005 Address: 9760 W. Colfax Ave. Page 2 of 4 Staff opened the meeting with introductions, followed by an explanation of meeting protocol, the neighborhood-meeting format and the SUP process. Planner s Introduction: Erin Bravo greeted attendees, provided cards, an overview of the meeting, the SUP process, reviewed meeting conduct, introduced the site, zoning, and the urban context. Erin reiterated that the proposal is for the use, not for the site plan. Just because the applicant is showing components of the site plan, does not mean that site plan will be approved. Planning Commission will be making a decision about use, based on the ability of this proposed mini-warehouse storage use to meet the special use permit criteria. Applicant Presentation: Applicant presented about who they are, what they are not proposing, and what they are proposing. The applicant then presented site specific information including existing conditions, neighborhood context, and how the site fits into Lakewood s comprehensive plan for neighborhood activity areas. Tim Heirls, the Project Architect with ArcWest Architects presented the proposed architectural detail and how the building design will activate the street frontage. The applicant then described the operations of the storage facility and opened the presentation for attendee questions. Q1: What are your hours of operation and how many days per week are the facilities open? A1: Typically six but potentially seven days a week with reduced hours on Sundays during peak times of the year. Q2: Can those terms and conditions (hours of operation) change? Can zoning protect the operation from changing? A2: Yes, the terms can change in ownership. Planner: Zoning does not typically regulate business operations. If there are any restrictions, those would most likely be written into the deed. As far as design and site layout, any special use must meet the supplemental, dimensional, and design standards of the Lakewood Zoning Ordinance, which will be thoroughly reviewed in the Site Plan Process. Q3: Do you offer waste service? Where is it located? A3: Yes, trash is located inside the building. Q4: Was the Alameda Gateway Community Association notified of this meeting? A4: Yes, they were sent a notification. They have not contacted the City regarding this proposal. Q5: What type of screening or buffering will you put in? A5: We (applicant) will work with the City to ensure we are meeting all design and transition standards. At this time, we are proposing a 6-foot masonry fence around the perimeter of the site, not including W Alameda Ave., and trees to help buffer the building from the surrounding residential land uses. Q6: Fences already exist along the yards of residences to the West, won t two fences lead to debris accumulation? S:\Development Review\Cases\DAT15\ZP-15-051 6206 W ALAMEDA AVE\Neighborhood meeting

Case # SU-15-005 Address: 9760 W. Colfax Ave. Page 3 of 4 A6: We (applicant) intend to replace the adjacent fences but we will have to have conversations with the residents to determine what is best and most desirable for those property owners. We will work with the City to ensure we meet the transitions. Planner: We have four options for transitions or buffers when a project is adjacent to single-family homes. The standards must be met before a Major Site Plan can be approved. Q7: There is no condition about buffering in the Special Use Permit? A7: (Planner) No, the Special Use Permit is a process set forth to determine if the use is appropriate on the site. Once we get to the Major Site Planning stage of any project, that is when we review the site for details such as landscaping buffers, transitions and compliance with all dimensional and design standards. Q8: How does security work? A8: We (applicant) have exterior cameras that are pointed on toward our property, hallway cameras, keypad access for all tenants and restricted floor access. We also have exterior lighting but that light does not bleed across property lines. Q9: What type of lighting? A9: Low beam security lights that help secure the facility. Planner: There are also exterior lighting standards in the Lakewood Zoning Ordinance and the Lakewood Police Department also offers a Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) survey that can improve site safety on a broad spectrum. Applicant: Why this works our units provide a lower cost option for business storage. Local businesses can store their stocked goods in our facility at a lower cost per square foot than it costs to store items on-site at their business location or take up valuable business space storing the stocked items. We offer modern wifi and office spaces for the small businesses that use out storage units to house their goods. Our rental units have also become incubator spaces for small local businesses such as e-commerce. And then, of course we offer an affordable location for short and long term storage needs. Q10: Where is the parking located? A10: We are proposing parking on the side and rear of the building. Applicant: New development encourages more new development. This development is investing in an area that needs it and will provide a community service with its office space. Q11: Where else have you built in the metro area? A11: 104 th Ave in Northglenn and on Jewell and Sheridan Blvd., which is a conversion of an old Safeway store. Q12: Is the Safeway site a confirmed site? Are any of your sites open? A12: We are still working through the planning process with Denver but we expect the project to move forward. No, none of our sites are open quite yet. Q13: What is the construction timeline? A13: 10-12 months once we receive our building permits. S:\Development Review\Cases\DAT15\ZP-15-051 6206 W ALAMEDA AVE\Neighborhood meeting

Case # SU-15-005 Address: 9760 W. Colfax Ave. Page 4 of 4 Q14: If the community has an issue with the hours of operation and the SUP cannot put conditions on that, is there any way to regulate it? A14: The most appropriate place for operation limitations would be in the deed, which runs with the property. Although we feel that there are a number of other uses allowed by right that could be much more disruptive that the use we are proposing. Next Steps Planner: We will write up the minutes to this meeting and the applicant will decide if they want to move forward with a formal application. If they choose to do so, a public hearing will be scheduled with the Planning Commission, who will make the final decision. There will be a notice if a public hearing is scheduled. The Planner and Applicant are available to answer any additional questions, our cards are up front. You can contact us via telephone or email. Thank you for attending. Meeting Adjourned at 7:15 PM.
