South - Vacant, Zoned "R-2"
East - Vacant, Zoned "R-2"
West - Commercial, Zoned "R-2"
STAFF ANALYSIS:
The request to rezone approximately 11 acres to "C-4" for
auto sales and service. The property is located on the
south side of I-30 east of the county line where a majority
of the land is still vacant. Recent rezonings in the area
have been for "C-4" to allow uses similar to the one being
proposed with this request. The Otter Creek District Plan
identifies the location as mixed commercial/industrial so
the "C-4" rezoning is compatible with the plan, and staff
supports the request.
One item that will have to be resolved prior to the property
being rezoned is the status of the floodway that crosses the
southeast corner of the site. With other rezoning proposals
in the area, the City has required the landowners to
dedicate any land that is in the floodway. A recommendation
concerning the dedication will be developed prior to the
public hearing. Also a high percentage of the property is
in the floodplain so -those requirements will have to be met
for any construction that takes place on the tract.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the "C-4" rezoning.
