Steve Thatcher <br />31 January 1905 <br />Page Four <br />The rezoning would make the existing gas station a nonconforming use and <br />subject to the nonconforming use provisions of the ?bonds View Zoning <br />Ordinance. The rezoning would inhibit the commercial use of the site and <br />promote residential redevelopment. <br />The procedure used to implement the rezoning would he: <br />1. Plar�a ddevelopment moritorium on the area being considered for <br />rezoning. -- <br />2. Conduct a rezoning study to dUrrminr the appruprintp zoning district <br />for the area. <br />3. Process the rezoning in accurdarne with the City's zoning procedures. <br />If upon review of the applicant's request, the City finds the proposed use to <br />be acceptable and chooses to approve the conditional use permit, the following <br />items shculd be addressed: <br />1. Planning District 6 of the Comirehensive Plan should be amended to reflect <br />a change in proposed land use. <br />2. The applicant's site conforms to the B-3 lot area and lot width requirements. <br />3. Site drainage plans must be submitted for review and approval of the <br />City Engineer. <br />4. The six foot high fence at the perimeter of the property is acceptable, <br />however, the fence cannot extend beyond the front building line. The <br />5ite-PJ.4-O-5hpw1 that the fence (loos beyond the buildrna on both sides of <br />The lot. The fence snould be setback in coke with the zoning <br />requirements. Landscaping &hould replace the fence in these areas to <br />screen adjacent residential properties. <br />5. Building setback. The building complies with the 0-3 setback standards. <br />The canopy proposed over the gas pumps encroaches into the front yard <br />setback within 10 feet of the property line. The Hounds View Zoning <br />Ordinance makes no setback exception for these canopies. As such, the <br />structure is in violation of the required setback. Three options are <br />available to correct this violation: <br />a. Revise the site design to conply with the established setback <br />standard. <br />b. Consider a variance from the established setback. <br />c. Consider a Zoning Ordinance amendment to specifically address <br />gas station canopies. <br />
