STAFF ANALYSIS
In 1985, the property at 4100 Asher Avenue was reclassified
from C-3 to PCD. The purpose of the PCD was to allow a
mixture of C-3, C-4 and I-1 uses, a retail and business
center. The concept was never fully developed and the
request is to rezone acreage back to C-3. The site is
currently occupied by Parkin Printing and an eating
establishment. The two uses are in separate buildings and
both are permitted in the C-3 district. Another factor for
the reclassification to C-3 is to remove certain restrictions
or requirements on the property, such as Planning Commission
review of any proposed changes to the site or buildings.
Zoning in the area is R-3, R-4, R-5, 0-3, C-1, C-3, I-2 and
I-3. The existing land use is made up of single family,
churches, commercial, industrial and St. Francis House. The
existing uses found along Asher Avenue are a combination of
commercial and industrial. Single family residences are
found north of West 29th and the industrial uses are
concentrated primarily south of Asher Avenue. Throughout the
neighborhood, there are also vacant lots.
A reclassification of the property to C-3 will not have an
impact on the area nor will it be a significant departure
from the existing situation. Commercial zoning on the site
has been in place for years and the requested action just
