The Zoningordinanc~ was amended June 25, 198~ to allow the
consideration of public and/or private parking facilities alrld any
related accessory uses as conditional uses in any zoning
district other than those commercial districts where.it is now a
permitted use. Conditional use permitsaregrranted by the
Commission, subject to appropriate conditionsiand safeguards,
when the Commission finds:
A. That the proposed use meets all the m1n1mum standalrds
established in the Zoning Ordinance for this type of
use;
B. That the proposed use is in harmony with the purpose and
intent of the zoning ordinance and the plan for physical
development of the district as embodied in the
comprehensive plan for the development of the City;
c. That the proposed use will not be detrimental to tlle
health, welfare, and safety of the surrounding
neighborhood or its occupants, nor be substantially or
permanently injurious to neighboring property.
(See sec. 14, Ordinance 1638)
The P.R.C.reviewedthe site plan on June 24, 1987 and
recommended approval with certain condit ions. A copy of th~~
P.R.C.report is attached. Intllis particular case the applicant
is requesting that the Commission consider the use and site plan
only, as a finalized landscape plan has not been prepared. The
Commission may either direct the Staff to make a technical review
of the landscape plan and include any conditions that the
Commission might feel appropriate or the Commission may direct
that the landscape plan be brought back before the Commission
when the applicant is ready.
If a building permit has not been issued within 12 months from
the date of approval of the use p.ermlt, the use permit is
cancelled. Upon written request the use permit may be apprc)ved
for extension for one six month period.
