Site Location:

Rodrigo Armendariz

7108 South Freeway Mapsco: 105F

Proposed Use: Retail with Outside Storage of Stone/Granite Slabs

Request: From: "E" Neighborhood Commercial

To: "POlE" Planned Development for all uses in "E" Neighborhood Commercial plusoutside storage of granite slabs for sale and outdoor storage in the rear; site planincluded

Land Use Compatibility: Requested change is compatible.

Comprehensive Plan Consistency: Requested change is not consistent.

Background:The applicant is proposing a zoning change to "POlE" for a Planned Development for E uses plus outsidestorage of stone slabs for display and sale. The business is a retail store for carpet, tile and granitecountertops for homes and businesses.

The outside storage is a necessary component for the business since they are limited on indoor space.The stone slabs are displayed outside. The applicant has been at this site since 2009 and was recentlycited by Code Compliance for the outdoor storage in a commercial district.

The Hallmark-Camelot Neighborhood Association had expressed concern about the visibility of the slabsfrom Bellvue St., south of the property. There is one business between the subject property and BellvueSt., with a 6 ft. chain link fence. The applicant and neighborhood representative met after the ZoningCommission meeting, and the site plan now includes a 6 ft. metal screening fence on the north, south,and west sides of the property, and the dumpster has been moved to the south side of the property andwill be enclosed.

Site Plan Comments:

The revised site plan as submitted is not in general compliance with the Zoning Ordinance regulations.The key deficiencies are:

1. There is a minimum 10' rear yard setback in which the existing metal building, roll offcontainer and proposed storage area encroaches into.

2. A solid masonry wall, wood fence, or combination thereof, a minimum of six feet in height isthe requirement for screening. The site plan indicates a six foot metal fence along the rear,north and south sides of the property. A waiver is necessary for the metal fence.

Zoning Commission recommended waivers to the items noted above.

Public Notification:

The following Neighborhood Associations were notified:Hallmark Camelot NA Everman ISODistrict 6 Alliance

Development Impact Analysis:1. Land Use Compatibility

The applicant is proposing a zone change for "PD/E" Planned Development for E uses plusoutside storage of stone slabs. Surrounding land uses consist of a hand wand car wash to thenorth, north/south freeway to the east, restaurant to the south, and apartments to the west.

Based on surrounding land uses, the proposed zoning is compatible at this location.

2. Comprehensive Plan ConsistencyThe 2011 Comprehensive Plan designates the site as neighborhood commercial. Outside storagewould be permitted by right in the I, J, or K zoning districts. The requested zoning change is notconsistent with the following Comprehensive Plan policies.

• Separate incompatible land uses with buffers or transitional uses. Some land uses haveattributes such as height, proportion, scale, operational characteristics, traffic generated,or appearance that may not be compatible with the attributes of other uses. (pg. 38)

Based on the lack of conformance with the future land use map and the policy stated above; theproposed zoning is not consistent with the Comprehensive Plan.
