District to "POD"
an office/warehouse
The applicant's request is to rezone the property from PCD
to POD to allow for an office / warehouse similar to Lot B
PVK Development, which is located to the southeast at
15315 Kanis Road. The current zoning of the parcel has
restrictions limiting to 0-2 uses. The applicant is proposing
a two-story building that will contain approximately
17,466 square feet. The lower level will be a basement that
warehouses vehicles, and construction materials. There will
not be any areas of outdoor storage materials or equipment.
The first floor of the building will be used for office
administration of the construction business.
BACKGROUND
CONTINUED
The property is currently undeveloped and has frontage
along Kanis Road north of Pride Valley Drive. The
surrounding parcels to the east, west, and south are zoned
PCD. The area to the north across Kanis is zoned 02 with
R2 in proximity.
According to the site plan, the new building will be situated
toward the back of the lot with parking in front along Kanis
Road. The exterior building materials will consist of
alternating sections of vertical and horizontal siding panels
with stone veneer.
The west portion of the property will be retained by the
seller for a regional storm water detention facility for all the
lots in vicinity. The east and west sides of the parking area
will allow access to the basement area of the building in
order to warehouse vehicles and construction materials.
There will be a shared access easement at the eastern
property line along Kanis Road, which will allow vehicular
access for the adjoining parcel. The dumpster will be
located along the common lot line and will be screened as
required by code. There will be no fencing used on this site.

The request is in the Ellis Mountain Planning District. The Land Use Plan shows
Suburban Office (SO) for the requested area. The Suburban Office (SO) category
shall provide for low intensity development of office or office parks in close
proximity to lower density residential areas to assure compatibility. A Planned
Zoning District is required. The application is to revise an existing Planned
Commercial Development (PCD) District to allow for the development of office,
limited indoor storage and warehouse on to this site.
Surrounding the application area, the Land Use Plan shows Suburban Office (SO)
use in all directions from the site. The Suburban Office (SO) category shall provide
for low intensity development of office or office parks in close proximity to lower
density residential areas to assure compatibility. A Planned Zoning District is
required. To the north (across Kanis Road) is an apartment complex — Fitzroy
Chenal. This property is zoned 0-2, Office and Institutional District with a
Conditional Use Permit for apartments. To the south, east and west is land zoned
Planned Commercial Development (PCD) District. There are mini warehouses on
the land to the south and west. To the east is vacant cleared land.
Master Street Plan: To the north is Kanis Road, it is a Minor Arterial on the Master
Street Plan. A Minor Arterial provides connections to and through an urban area
and their primary function is to provide short distance travel within the urbanized
area. Entrances and exits should be limited to minimize negative effects of traffic
and pedestrians on Kanis Road since it is Minor Arterial. This street may require
dedication of right-of-way and may require street improvements for entrances and
exits to the site.

Bicycle Plan: There are no bike routes shown in the immediate vicinity.
Historic Preservation Plan: There are no existing historic sites on, or in proximity

H. ANALYSIS:
The applicant's request is to rezone the property from PCD to POD to allow for an
office / warehouse similar to Lot B PVK Development, which is located to the
southeast at 15315 Kanis Road. The current zoning of the parcel has restrictions
limiting to 0-2 uses. The applicant is proposing a two-story building that will contain
approximately 17,466 square feet. The lower level will be a basement that
warehouses vehicles, and construction materials. There will not be any areas of
outdoor storage materials or equipment. The first floor of the building will be used
for office administration of the construction business.
The property is currently undeveloped and has frontage along Kanis Road north
of Pride Valley Drive. The surrounding parcels to the east, west, and south are
zoned PCD. The area to the north across Kanis is zoned 02 with R2 in proximity.
According to the site plan, the new building will be situated toward the back of the
lot with parking in front along Kanis Road. The exterior building materials will
consist of alternating sections of vertical and horizontal siding panels with stone
veneer.
The west portion of the property will be retained by the seller for a regional storm
water detention facility for all the lots in vicinity. The east and west sides of the
parking area will allow access to the basement area of the building in order to
warehouse vehicles and construction materials. There will be a shared access
easement at the eastern property line along Kanis Road, which will allow vehicular
access for the adjoining parcel. The dumpster will be located along the common
lot line and will be screened as required by code. There will be no fencing used on
this site.
Staff is supportive of the POD zoning request. Staff views the request as
reasonable. The property is a "SO" (Suburban Office) on the city's future land use
plan. The proposed rezoning to POD will be consistent with the future plan and
with other existing developments along Kanis Road. The requested POD zoning
should have no adverse impact on the area.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the request subject to compliance with the
comments and conditions as outlined in paragraphs D, E, F, and the staff
analysis of the agenda staff report.
