Background:
The property is located at the intersection of Berry and Mitchell both neighborhood collectors. The
applicant is requesting a zoning change from "B" Two -Family and "E" Neighborhood Commercial to "E"
Neighborhood Commercial for a parking lot for an existing restaurant.
Past efforts to rezone this property for neighborhood commercial have not been successful. Should the
property be approved, there are several requirements that go along with a parking lot adjacent to
residential, such as down lighting, screening, chaining and locking at night.
The case was continued at the November Zoning Commission meeting to allow more time for the
applicant to reach out to the neighborhood and clarify proposed uses for the property. The proposed use
was indicated in the zoning change request application and thus noticed to the public as a parking lot for
restaurant. At the November hearing the applicant and owner suggested that the use could be for a
restaurant expansion and/or event center. The request is to change the existing zoning of "B" Two -
Family and "E" Neighborhood Commercial to allow the full lot to be zoned "E" Neighborhood Commercial.
"E" Neighborhood Commercial would allow beauty/barber shops, bookstores, drug stores, studios, offices,
public and civic uses, health care, retail sales, banks, restaurants, gasoline sales, bakeries, event center
or rental hall, and alcohol sales for off premise consumption and as part of food service.
At the December Zoning Commission meeting a representative for the New Mitchell Boulevard
neighborhood association spoke in opposition. They do not want to see the lot change to commercial.

Five motions were made by the Commissioners ending in motions failing with a tie vote. The last motion
that was seconded is the motion for Denial moving it forward to City Council.

Development Impact Analysis:
1. Land Use Compatibility
The applicant is proposing a zoning change to "E" Neighborhood Commercial. The "B" Two -
Family portion of this lot has less than 20' of frontage on Berry Street making access difficult
without utilizing the existing and adjacent "E" Neighborhood Commercial lot for access. The
understood uses, after hearing information given by the applicant and owner at the November
hearing, would be a restaurant expansion and/or an event center. Because this site is adjacent to
a residential district, it would be required to follow appropriate setbacks and consider projected
front yard for placement of parking stalls and buildings.
Surrounding land uses are single family to the north and west, churches to the east and south,
and the Renaissance Square shopping center east of Mitchell Boulevard. Neighborhood serving
uses at this corner are appropriate as a buffer to the residential uses. At the location of two
collector/arterial streets and in proximity to the Renaissance shopping center, the proposed
zoning for this site is compatible at this location.
2. Comprehensive Plan Consistency - Southeast
The 2019 Comprehensive Plan designates the subject property as Neighborhood Commercial.
The requested zoning change is consistent with the following Comprehensive Plan policies:
• Encourage appropriate development and redevelopment within central city commercial
districts and neighborhoods.
• Promote appropriate infill development of vacant lots, old commercial centers (greyfields),
and contaminated sites (brownfields) within developed areas, particularly in the central city.
• Promote a balance of residential, commercial, and industrial uses in the Southeast sector.
Based on conformance with the future land use map and policies stated above the proposed
zoning is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan.
