The North Augusta, South Carolina, Planning Commission, is asking the city council to consider new restrictions for self-storage development in the area. The request comes after officials approved several storage projects over the past year, according to the source.
The planning commission has suggested barring future self-storage development from the Knox Avenue and Martintown Road commercial corridors as well as areas near U.S. Interstate 20 for exits 1 and 5. It specifically proposes restricting self-storage to the city’s industrial zones, which are southeast of the Jefferson Davis-Palmetto Parkway interchange. Currently, the business permitted in most commercial districts through an exception.
In May, the planning commission approved the redevelopment of Kmart store to a 1,000-unit self-storage facility. A Public Storage project is also under construction near Carolina Springs Road and East Buena Vista Avenue.
