PUBLIC NOTIFICATION
FILE NO.: Z-4328-A
All owners of property located within 200 feet of the site,
all residents within 300 feet and the John Barrow and
Brownwood Terrace Neighborhood Associations were notified of
the rezoning request.
LAND USE PLAN ELEMENT
Planning Division:
The request is located in the Boyle Park Planning District.
The Land Use Plan shows Low Density Residential for this
location. The property is currently zoned MF-12 Multifamily
and the zoning request is for C-3 General Commercial. This
change does not require a land use plan amendment since a
review is currently being performed by area citizens. The
Land Use Plan is not reflective of the current zoning
insomuch as the surrounding C-3 zoned properties are
indicated as Low Density Residential, Office and Mixed Use
on the Plan.
City Recognized Neighborhood Action Plan:
This property is located in an area to be covered by the
John Barrow Neighborhood Action Plan Review that is
currently taking place. This area is north of their
original plan area, but will be included in the review area.
The initial review of the land use plan amendment would
require a large expansion of the application, which would be
duplicitous of the actions of the neighborhood plan
committee.
STAFF ANALYSIS
The request before the Commission is to rezone this
undeveloped .3 acre tract from MF-12 Multifamily to C-3
General Commercial District. The .3 acre tract is part of
a larger 1.98 acre parcel. The northern and southern
portions of the larger parcel are already zoned C-3. Once
the .3 acres is rezoned, the applicants propose to develop

FILE NO.: Z-4328-A
the entire 1.98 acre parcel as office warehouse. A
conditional use permit to allow office warehouse in C-3
has been filed for the August 3, 2000 Planning Commission
meeting (Z-4328-B).
Staff is supportive of the rezoning request. The property
is'located within the commercial node established at the
intersection of Kanis and John Barrow Roads. The properties
abutting this .3 acre tract on the north, south and west are
zoned C-3. Uses in the immediate area are varied and
include a laboratory, offices, a bank, a small commercial
shopping center and a plumbing company. The larger area
around the intersection includes an even broader range of
office and commercial uses. The undeveloped, ME-12 zoned
tract adjacent to the east is owned by these applicants.
When the previous land owner rezoned the properties to their
current zoning pattern, he retained this 50' X 60' MF-12
area to provide possible access from the larger MF-12
property on the east to Barrow Road on the west. The
current owners have no desire to take access from John
Barrow. Access to both the currently proposed C-3
development and their abutting MF-12 property will be off of
Rose Street which enters the site from Kanis Road to the
south.
The property is located in the Boyle Park Planning District.
The Land Use Plan is not reflective of the current zoning in
that it does not recognize the existing C-3 zoning in the
area generally north of Kanis Road, east of John Barrow.
The property is not within an area covered by a neighborhood
action plan. The area north of Kanis Road is north of the
area covered by the John Barrow Neighborhood Action Plan.
That plan is currently being reviewed. As part of that
process, the Plan Committee will be asked to expand their
review to include this area. It is expected that the review
will result in a Plan Amendment recognizing the commercially
zoned properties, including this .3 acre tract, as
commercial on the Plan.
Staff believes the C-3 zoning request is compatible with
uses and zoning in the area. No plan amendment is required
at this time.
