The case was continued at the June Zoning Commission meeting so that the applicant could reach out to staff.

The applicant mentioned this would be a phased project in which if approved, the trailer parking would come first then the offices for the trailer sales and light manufacturing of trailers. At the July Zoning Commission meeting the applicant did mention a 25 ft. tree buffer as identified on the site plan. The adjacent property owner spoke in opposition to the request.

Land Use Compatibility The applicant is proposing a zoning change to PD/E Planned Development for "E" Neighborhood Commercial plus trailer parking, sales and light manufacturing. The northern boundary abuts an existing single-family neighborhood with other residential uses along the southern border, a church is directly south. Due to the proximity to residential and other surrounding land uses, the proposed zoning is not compatible with surrounding land uses. 2. Comprehensive Plan Consistency The 2019 Comprehensive Plan designates the subject property as Neighborhood Commercial. While the trailer parking and sales including light manufacturing may not be considered a neighborhood commercial use, the size and scale of the proposed building and trailer storage meets the below policies within the following Comprehensive Plan. Promote appropriate infill development of vacant lots, old commercial centers (greyfields), and contaminated sites (brownfields) within developed areas, particularly in the central city. • Encourage compatible development between residential and commercial properties along the west side of the East Loop 820 corridor. • Encourage appropriate development and redevelopment within central city commercial districts and neighborhoods. • Locate large industrial uses along freight rail lines, highways, or airports within industrial growth centers and other appropriate locations. Based on lack of conformance with the future land use map and policies above, the proposed zoning change is not consistent (Significant Deviation) with the following Comprehensive Plan. The submittal of a site plan may help to mitigate any neighborhood concerns. Attachments: • Location Map • Area Zoning Map with 300 ft.
