Augusta, ME, Considers Self-Storage in 2 New Zoning Districts


Jan 27, 2021
Augusta, Maine, city officials are considering whether to allow new self-storage development in two zoning districts. Though there isn’t yet a proposal for either area, the move would enable vacant retail buildings in the Civic Center District and Regional Business District to be converted to storage as a conditional use, according to the source. Indoor self-storage, which isn’t addressed in the city’s current zoning, would also be allowed.
“This is something that has come up a number of times in the past few years, with respect to some of the larger retail locations that are having trouble being filled,” Matt Nazar, development director, recently told city councilmembers. “And one of the potential uses for a portion of those existing retail spaces is for indoor self-storage units; basically, cutting some of those spaces up into individual self-storage spaces. It may end up providing some level of use in some of these commercial facilities that couldn’t, potentially, get used in another way.”
