STAFF COMMENTS:
Conditional use permits are granted by the Commission, subject to appropriate
conditions and safeguards, when the Commission finds:
A. That the proposed use meets all the minimum standards 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 the health, welfare,. and
safety of the surrounding neighborhood or its occupants, nor be sub tantially
or permanently injurious to neighboring property.
(See sec. 14, Ordinance 1638)
The P.R.C. will review this project after the application and site plan have been received.
The site plan must also come before P&Z for final approval.
The lot is a triangular fragment of an older tract that, due to its shape, is unlikely to
develop as a larger. commercial use. It abuts a public utility substation and the request is
in line with the existing and future land uses.
