Z-8708-A Staff AnalysisOctober 11, 2012 ITEM NO.: 5 FILE NO.: Z-8708-A NAME: 5700 Patterson Beauty/Barber Salon — Conditional Use Permit LOCATION: 5700 Patterson Road OWNER/APPLICANT: Jean Hoffman/Jeanie Barron PROPOSAL: A conditional use permit is requested to allow a beauty and barber shop within one bay of this 1-2 zoned, multi -space building. SITE LOCATION: The property is located on the west side of Patterson Road, north of Hoffman Road. 2. COMPATIBILITY WITH NEIGHBORHOOD: Zoning in the surrounding area is almost exclusively Industrial, 1-2 and 1-3. Uses are varied; including warehousing, light manufacturing, wholesaling and auto related uses. A CUP was previously approved to allow a beauty salon in this building and on the property located north of this site. This building is divided into 13 bays with a mixture of uses. Allowing the proposed beauty salon/barber shop to locate in one of the bays should have no impact on other properties. Notice of the public hearing was sent to all owners of properties located within 200 feet of the site and the Wakefield, Upper Baseline, Geyer Springs and SWLR United for Progress Neighborhood Associations. 3. ON SITE DRIVES AND PARKING: The site contains 87, concrete -paved parking spaces with access off of Patterson Road and Hoffman Road. The proposed beauty and barbershop is to occupy 885 square feet of the 29,375 square foot building. The beauty and barbershop is required four (4) parking spaces. Based on the uses in the building and the number of on -site parking spaces, there appears to be sufficient parking. 4. SCREENING AND BUFFERS: No Comments. October 11, 2012 ITEM NO.: 5 Cont.

Staff briefly described the property and proposed salon use. Staff suggested that the property owner consider rezoning to PID in the future. Staff noted that Public Works required additional right-of-way to be dedicated along Hoffman Road and a franchise agreement for the parking in the right-of-way. The proposed conditional use permit was briefly discussed. After the discussion, the Committee forwarded the application to the full Commission for final action. STAFF ANALYSIS: The 1-2 zoned property located at the northwest corner of Patterson and Hoffman Roads contains a one-story, 29,375 square foot building and an 87-space parking lot. The building is divided into 13 lease spaces and contains a variety of uses. The applicant is requesting approval of a conditional use permit to allow use of one of the lease spaces (5700 Patterson Road) for a beauty and barbershop, other than for some minor remodeling of the interior of the lease space to accommodate the use, no changes are proposed to the site. The proposed beauty and barbershop is to occupy an 885 square foot (14'9" X 60') lease space. Days and hours of operation are proposed as Tuesday — Friday, 8:00 a.m. — 7:30 p.m. and Saturday, 7:00 a.m. — 7:00 p.m. The shop will have a maximum of 6 employees. Signage will consist of space on the center's existing ground -mounted sign and wall signage on the front of the lease space. The nature of the uses in the 13-space building has begun to change, from purely 1-2 Industrial uses to a broader range of uses. The location and design of the site seem to support allowing the addition of other, service type uses. Staff has suggested that the applicant consider rezoning the site, perhaps through a 3 October 11, '2012 ITEM NO.: 5 ILE NO.: Z-8708-A Planned Development, in the future if the lease trend continues to support the need for space for other types of uses.
