Peckham West 3rd and Ringo, NW Corner Rezone from "C-4" Open Display to "C-3" General Commercial Offices 15,000 square feet Existing Use: Clinic SURROUNDING LAND USE AND ZONING: North - Multifamily, Zoned "C-4" South - Industrial, Zoned "C-4" East - Office, Zoned "C-4" West - Commercial, Zoned "C-3" PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS: 1. No specific plans have been submitted at this time, but the proposal is to construct additional office space on the property. The location is currently occupied by a chiropractic clinic, and it is unknown whether the rezoning is to allow the clinic to expand or for construction of a separate building. The site is located in a part of downtown that has a wide range of uses. Abutting this property on the north and west are commercial and multifamily uses. To the east and south across the street there are office and industrial uses. The use is compatible with the area. 2. The property is flat and occupied by a single structure on the northeast corner. A majority of the remaining area is used for parking. 3. There are no right-of-way requirements or Master Street Plan issues associated with this request. 4. There have been no adverse comments received from the reviewing agencies at this time. n July 24, 1984 Item No. 10 - Continued 5. There are no legal issues. 6. There is no documented neighborhood position on this site. A majority of the area is "C-4" which was a conversion from the old "G-1" Commercial District. "C-4" does not permit many of the uses previously allowed in "C-1" so rezoning "C-3" has become common in the area. The property directly to the west was rezoned from "C-4" to "C-3" at the end of last year because of similar reasons. 7. Staff supports the request and does not view it as creating any problems for the area. There are many different uses currently in place and it is diffcult to determine what the primary land use pattern is. A clinic or additional office use is consistent with the area's mixed development and that appears to be the trend for the future. Staff does not foresee anv difficulties with establishing these small "C-3" locations. There are four other "C-3" sites within two blocks of this property. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the request as filed. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: The applicant was present. There were no objectors in attendance. The Commission discussed the request briefly and then voted to recommend approval of the request as filed. The vote: 10 ayes, 0 noes and 1 absent.
