Existing Zoning Commercial Industrial Proposed Zoning General Commercial /Commercial Industrial Present Use of Property Retail Sales /Service, Flex - Warehouse Proposed Use of Property Retail Sales /Service, Flex - Warehouse REZONING SUPPORTING INFORMATION 1. List the changed or changing conditions in the area or in the City which make this zone change necessary. The improvements on the subject tract were constructed in the mid 1970s. During the time since construction the uses within the improvements were consistent with the zoning ordinances under the City's policy of "cumulative zoning ". In recent times the City has backed away from the policy of cumulative zoning and has adhered more strictly to the uses under the specific zoning classification that a property exists. The improvements on the subject tract are constructed in such a manner that strict adherence to the current zoning designation, without applying cumulative zoning, provides a hardship for portions of the property. In general terms, the front portion of the property is best suited as General Commercial, while the rear portion of the property is best suited to remain Commercial Industrial. 2. Indicate whether or not this zone change is in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan. If it is not, explain why the Plan is incorrect. The requested zone change is consistent with the City's Comprehensive Land Use Plan. The subject tract, as well as the surrounding property, is designated as General Commercial. 3. How will this zone change be compatible with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby property and with the character of the neighborhood? The two adjacent tracts, north and south, that front Highway 6 are currently zoned General Commercial. We believe that allowing the rezoning of the front portion of the subject tract will be consistent with that of the neighboring tracts along the frontage road of Hwy 6. We also maintain that allowing the western portion of the subject tract to remain Commercial Industrial is constant with that of the neighboring property adjacent to the west. 10/10 Page 2 of 3 4. Explain the suitability of the property for uses permitted by the rezoning district requested. The portion of the subject tract that the applicant is requesting rezoning is very suitable for uses permitted within the General Commercial zoning district. The improvements located on this portion of the property are primarily composed of glass store front, retail oriented space, which is typical of most structures located in General Commercial zoning districts. 5. Explain the suitability of the property for uses permitted by the current zoning district. The suitability of the subject tract under the current Commercial Industrial zoning district is ideal for a portion of the property but not all. The improvements were originally designed to accommodate light industrial, flex warehouse space on the western portion of the subject tract and retail use for the eastern portion of the property that faces Highway 6. Therefore, zoning the eastern portion of the subject tract as General Commercial will create a list of permitted uses more suitable for that area of the property. 6. Explain the marketability of the property for uses permitted by the current zoning district. The marketability of the property under the current Commercial Industrial zoning district is not well suited for the eastern portion of the property. This portion of the property is limited in its marketability by the current zoning district. The western portion of the property is marketable under the current zoning district but would become unmarketable if the entire property was to be rezoned to General Commercial. 7. List any other reasons to support this zone change. None at this time.
