Staff Recommendation: Denial
Background:
The subject property is 0.3 acres of land located just north of 28th Street on Clinton Ave. This site is
currently zoned "ER" Neighborhood Commercial Restricted and the applicant is proposing to change the
zoning to "FR" General Commercial. The applicant intends to expand the existing automotive business
two lots to the north. The applicant was storing vehicles for repair on these lots but was cited by Code
Compliance. The proposed zoning change is intended to bring the site into conformance with zoning
regulations.
The text below describes development requirements related to automotive repair located within close
proximity to One -Family Zoning.
Automotive Requirements within the Zoning Ordinance (5.134)
• All repairs must be conducted within an enclosed building.
• Vehicle storage requirements for automotive repair; paint and body shops near one or two-family
residential use.
o Automotive repair; paint and body shops located on property adjacent to a one- or two-
family residential use must screen all vehicles that have been accepted for repairs from
view from such residential use by parking/storing the vehicles within a building or by
providing a six-foot solid screening fence or six-foot solid screen evergreen hedge along
the property line adjacent to, or across an alley from, the one or two-family residential

use. The solid screen evergreen hedge shall planted be in accordance with the zoning
ordinance landscaping and buffer requirements.
o All other automotive repair; paint and body shops within 200 feet from any one or two-
family residential use must screen all vehicles that have been accepted for repairs from
view from such residential use by parking/storing the vehicles within a building or by
providing a six-foot solid screening fence or six-foot solid screen evergreen hedge on all
property lines facing the residential use. The measurement of the distance between the
automotive repair or paint and body shop and the one or two-family residential use shall
be along the nearest property line of the one- or two-family residential use to the nearest
property line of the automotive repair or paint and body shop, along street lines and in a
direct line across intersections. The solid screen evergreen hedge shall planted be in
accordance with the zoning ordinance landscaping and buffer requirements
No repairs shall be conducted on any premises that adjoin any residential district boundary.
No automobile repair or service facility shall be permitted to have bay doors facing a one- or two-
family district.

Subject property is not located within a registered Neighborhood Association.
Development Impact Analysis:
1. Land Use Compatibility
The applicant is proposing to change the zoning of this site from "ER" Neighborhood Commercial
Restricted to "FR" General Commercial Restricted. This site is surrounded by a vacant lot and
single-family to the north, vacant land to the east, automotive repair just south and single-family
west. Encroachment of additional automotive would be detrimental to existing residential uses
due to sound and other negative characteristics. Additionally, this lot was rezoned in 2010 to
neighborhood commercial restricted to provide a buffer to more intense surrounding uses.
The proposed zoning is not compatible with surrounding land uses.
2. Comprehensive Plan Consistency — Northside
The 2021 Comprehensive Plan currently designates the subject property as Mixed -Use and
Neighborhood Commercial on the Future Land Use Map. The proposed zoning is inconsistent
with the land use designations for this area and does not align with the following policies of the
Comprehensive Plan:
• Promote appropriate infill development of vacant lots within developed areas, which will
efficiently utilize existing infrastructure
• Separate incompatible land uses with buffers or transitional uses. Some land uses have
attributes such as height, proportion, scale, operational characteristics, traffic generated,
or appearance that may not be compatible with the attributes of other uses.

Based on conformance with the policies stated above, the proposed zoning is not consistent
with the Comprehensive Plan.
