Background:
The property is located at the intersection of Gould Avenue & Northside Drive. The applicant is requesting
a zoning change to add a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for a restaurant with alcohol sales; site plan
included. The subject property was rezoned to Community Facilities "CF" for the church use back in 2011,
the property has sold. According to historic aerials the church appears to have been built prior to 1950
and may have been constructed prior to the Zoning Ordinance.
The applicant has stated they will keep the existing structure and remodel it for a take-out restaurant
facility with alcohol sales. The remainder of the lots 19 and 20 will be used as green space as indicated
on the site plan with the exception of the dumpster location and will act as a buffer to the single family
uses in the block.
Conditional uses are those uses which are generally compatible with the permitted land uses in a given
zoning district, but which require individual review of their proposed location, design and configuration,
and the imposition of conditions in order to ensure the appropriateness of the use at a particular location.
While a restaurant is not permitted in the "CF zoning district by right, allowing it by CUP with a site plan
may help mitigate any neighborhood concerns.
Through Ordinance 23609 effective March 29, 2019, the Conditional Use Permit allows for an unlimited
time period for the operation of a use unless otherwise approved by the City Council. If a time limit is
Page 1 of 3
established for a Conditional Use Permit, the renewal of the CUP shall be considered through the public
hearing process and approved by the City Council. A CUP shall expire if no permitting action is taken
within six months of approval or cease of the use for six months. A CUP may be revoked through the
public hearing process if necessary after convictions of one or more code violations.
Per Section 4.407 (a), the following general rules apply to all conditional uses:
a) Conditional use permits in residential districts shall be limited to those uses designated "CUP" in
the Residential District Use Table in Chapter 4, Article 6, Section 4.603.
b) Approval of a conditional use permit shall authorize only the particular use or category of related
uses for which the conditional use permit is issued.
c) A conditional use shall not be enlarged, extended or otherwise modified unless approved by the
City Council or approved administratively as applicable.
d) The use of property for the purposes described in a conditional use permit shall not commence
until a certificate of occupancy has been issued. A certificate of occupancy shall not be issued
until all or approvals which may be required by the Codes and Ordinances of the City, including,
but not limited to, a Building Permit, a Certificate Of Occupancy and subdivision approval have
been satisfied.
Section (d) provides the following Conditional Use Permit factors in consideration of appropriateness of a
request:
a) The proposed use is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan;
b) The proposed use is compatible with the existing and adjacent uses.
c) The proposed use meets all supplemental use standards specifically applicable to the use as set
forth in Chapter 5;
d) The proposed use is compatible with and preserves the character and integrity of adjacent
development and neighborhoods;
e) The proposed use is not materially detrimental to the public health, safety, and welfare, or results
in material damage or prejudice to other property in the vicinity.

Site Plan Comments:
The site plan as submitted is not in general compliance with the Zoning Ordinance regulations.
1. The existing building encroaches into established setbacks along Gould Avenue (20 ft.) and
Northside Drive (20 ft.)(requires development regulation standard)
• (analysis: Based on the existing building configuration, year constructed) Staff
supports the encroachment into established setbacks.
2. A 5 ft. bufferyard is required along all property lines please indicate on the site plan. If the existing
building and any parking spaces encroach. (requires development regulation standard)
• (analysis: Based on the existing building configuration, year constructed) Staff
supports the encroachment into the 5 ft. bufferyard.
3. Parking is prohibited in the front yard for CF zoning. (requires development regulation
standard)
• (analysis: Approximately 3 parking spaces encroach into the projected setback.
Based on the past aerials the parking has always been in place) Staff supports the
encroachment of 3 parking spaces in the projected front yard.
The Zoning Commission recommended Approval to the 3 development regulations standards
noted above.

Development Impact Analysis:
1. Land Use Compatibility
The applicant is requesting a zoning change for a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for a restaurant
with alcohol sales. Surrounding land uses are predominantly single family.
The proposed zoning for a CUP is compatible at this location.
2. Comprehensive Plan Consistency — Northside
The 2020 Comprehensive Plan designates the subject property as Institutional. The requested
zoning classification is not appropriate for the land use designation. The requested CUP zoning
is not consistent with the following Comprehensive Plan policies:
Encourage new development in character with the existing neighborhood scale,
architecture, and platting pattern, while working to improve pedestrian, bicycle, and
transit access between adjacent neighborhoods and nearby destinations.
Encourage infill development of compatible, single-family homes in existing
neighborhoods to preserve and protect residential neighborhoods.
Based on lack of conformance with the future land use, and policies stated above, the proposed
zoning is not consistent (Significant Deviation) with the Comprehensive Plan.
