The proposed use for the property is a used car sales lot. The site is vacant now, but had been previously used for mobile home sales which is also a "C-4" use. With the site being completely vacant and no indication what type of use had occupied it, a rezoning to "C-4" was requested because of this and to avoid any problems. The use is compatible with this section of University Avenue because there are similar uses in the immediate vicinity. The zoning pattern includes "C-3" which this property abuts, "R-2" to the west and "I-2" to the south, north and east. The portion of University Avenue south of Mabelvale Pike to I-30 is normally associated with uses that require a mix of "C-3," "C-4" and "I-2" districts. Because of this, it is not uncommon to find all three classifications along a short segment of the street. 2. The site is flat with a wooded view area along the west side. 3. There are no right-of-way requirements or Master Street Plan issues associated with this request. December 18, 1984 Item No. 25 - Continued 4.
