The proposal is to utilize the site for a single family residence and a barber shop. Currently, there is one residential structure on the property and the plan is to convert a small area on the west side of the house for the barber shop. The lot has 70 feet of frontage on Baseline and a depth of 153 feet. There is a substantial front yard setback, so providing the necessary parking does not appear to be a problem. (The parking requirement is one space per 200 feet of floor area.) Zoning found in the general vicinity is R-2, 0-3 and C-3. There are existing C-3 parcels to the east and west of the site and across Baseline Road. Land use is made up of single family, several mobile home parks, a church, commercial, office and a private school. The commercial uses include retail, auto service, an eating place and mini -storage units. A number of the uses are still nonconforming because the area was annexed to the city, and there are very few undeveloped parcels. The Geyer Springs East Plan identifies both sides of Baseline Road for commercial use. Therefore, the requested C-1 reclassification conforms the adopted land use and staff supports the rezoning.
