Item No. 8
NAME:
West 12th Street Conditional
Use Permit (Z-4814)
LOCATION: The northwest corner of
Appainway and West 12th Street
(2810 West 12th Street)
OWNER/APPLICANT:
Carl Lynn Vines
PROPOSAL:
To construct an 884 square feet addition (two service bays)
to an existing 642 square feet service station building
which would allow for limited motor vehicle repair. A side
yard variance is also requested (3' 2" is requested, 15' is
required).
ORDINANCE DESIGN STANDARDS:
1. Site Location
Adjacent to an arterial street (West 12th Street) and a
residential street (Appainway).
2. Compatibility with Neighborhood
The Stephens School Plan calls for a commercial use on
this site and projects light industrial and industrial
uses to the north and the east. The existing land use
includes duplex to the north, duplex and commercial
located to the south, church and single family to the
east, and industrial to the west. It is obvious that
the neighborhood includes mixed uses and according to
the "plan" will be in transition to more intense uses
in the future. Given these considerations, the staff
feels that this proposal is compatible with the
surrounding area.
3. On -Site Drives and Parkin
The site contains three access points ( one 50' access
on Appainway and two 40' access drives on West 12th
Street). The entire property is paved and could be
used for parking.

4. Screening and Bufffers
No landscape plan has been submitted.
5. Analysis
The staff feels that this proposal will not have a
negative impact on the surrounding area (see number
2). Ordinarily, a 15' side yard is required between
commercial and residentially zoned property. This
site, however, already has a building constructed 5' 4"
from the property line. The proposed addition (3' 2"
setback) will be further removed from the duplex
located to the north and also enclose an existing
outside grease rack. The location of an existing
concrete wall and the grease rack further necessitates
constrution 3' 2" from the side yard setback. The
applicant will be required to meet City Landscape
requirements and will not be allowed any outside
storage or display as per "C-3" zoning di*trict
requirements. Finally, the applicant needs to paint
the rear of the building to match the existing
structure.
6. City Engineering Comments
None.
7. Staff Recommendation
Approval as filed provided the applicants agrees to:
(1) comply with City Landscape Ordinance requirements;
(2) no outside display or storage on -site; and (3) to
paint the structure to match the existing building.
