Item No. 5 - Z-4863
Owner: Otter Creek Development Company
Applicant: Claude Brasseale
Location: Otter Creek East Boulevard and
Mabelvale West Road
Request: Rezone from 11I-2" to 11C-3"
Purpose: Commercial and Office
Size: 2.63 acres
Existing Use: Vacant
SURROUNDING LAND USE AND ZONING:
North - Commercial and Hospital, Zoned "0-3" and "C-2"
South - Industrial, Zoned "I-2"
East - Industrial, Zoned "I-2"
West - Commercial, Zoned "I-2"
STAFF ANALYSIS:
The request is to rezone a tract in the Otter Creek
Industrial Park area from 11I-2" to 11C-3" for a mixed
commercial and office development. Because of the new
hospital located on the north side of Mabelvale West Road,
it is anticipated that some of the uses will be medical
related and/or service oriented. In addition to the
hospital, the land use includes commercial and industrial.
Also, several of the parcels are still undeveloped. Zoning
in the area is a mix of "R-2," 110-2," "C-2," "C-3," and
"I-2" with the industrial classification being the primary
district.
The Otter Creek District Plan recommends industrial uses for
the area, but staff feels that a mixed development pattern
is appropriate and supports the 11C-3" request. This is
especially true for the Mabelvale West frontage because of
the nonindustrial uses located on,the north side. The most
recent rezoning action was to "C-3" for some land fronting
Mabelvale West Road, so staff's position is consistent with
other rezoning requests in the immediate vicinity.
There are no right-of-way requirements or Master Street Plan
issues associated with this request.
