(99 -705) Item Summary: The request is for approval so that the applicant may pursue the development of animal boarding associated with a proposed veterinary clinic adjacent to the future Texaco service station that will be located at the Rock Prairie Road/Wellbom intersection. The property abuts a vacant A -P zoned tract to the east and vacant R-1 to the north. The Master Development Plan for Edelweiss Subdivision shows the adjoining property as a future row of medium density single family with frontage on the future Marta Street, which will run parallel to Rock Prairie Road. The proposed veterinary clinic is a permitted use in the C -1 zoning district and is therefore not subject to PnZ review. The just under 400 square foot kennel does require PnZ approval because it is listed as a conditional use in the C -1 district. The conceptual plan that was submitted with the request shows the kennel addition in the rear of the building, roughly 100 feet from the rear property line. The exercise area for the animals will be located between the building and a 25' buffer zone that has been reflected on the site plan. Relationship to Comprehensive Plan: The Land Use Plan shows this area as commercial near the intersection with medium density single family behind the commercial. The Master Development Plan shows an undetermined buffer zone and landscape easement that would separate the commercial from the single family development. Item Background: The subject property has been under development for the past decade as the Edelweiss Subdivision. Budgetary & Financial Summary: NA Staff Recommendations: Section 14 of the Zoning Ordinance authorizes the existence of conditional uses. The Commission may permit a conditional use subject to appropriate conditions and safeguards, when after public notice and hearing the Commission finds that: (Staff comments are in italics) 1. "The proposed use meets all the minimum standards established in the ordinance for the type of use proposed." This use meets all of the minimum ordinance requirements. 2. "That the proposed use meets the purpose and intent of the ordinance and is in harmony with the development policies and goals and objectives as embodied in the Comprehensive Plan for Development of the City." This use is not in conflict with the Land Use Plan. 3. "That the proposed use will not be detrimental to the health, welfare, and safety of the surrounding neighborhood or its occupants, nor be substantially or permanently injurious to neighboring property." The public hearing is an opportunity for the Commission to measure the potential impact on surrounding land uses. "The Commission may impose additional reasonable restrictions or conditions to carry out the spirit and intent of the ordinance and to mitigate adverse effects of the proposed use. These requirements may include, but are not limited to, increased open space, loading and parking o:\Woup\deve_saw&ptV9- 705.doc requirements, additional landscaping, and additional improvements such as curbing, sidewalks and screening. Unless the public hearing brings to light any new information indicating potential negative impacts, Staff' recommends approval with compliance with the concept plan and the buffering as conditions.
