The applicant intends to use the property for a swimming pool sales and supply business. He plans to display three or four models of above ground swimming pools and hot tubs. Those purchased will be sent to the customer from separate warehousing facilities. This use is specifically listed in the "C-4" and "I-2" Districts. It is permitted as a conditional use in the "C-3" District. The applicant chose the rezoning route to lessen the time of approval. He had previously tried to use a site on South University only to learn that it could not be used for his purpose. Staff realizes that Cantrell is a highway and normally suited for "C-4" zoning; however, staff is concerned about access and the proliferation of curb cuts along Highway 10. There are a number of "C-4" type uses along this segment of Cantrell, including the gas station immediately to the west of this site, but staff feels that these uses are misplaced.
