STAFF ANALYSIS:
The request to is rezone a 2.37 acre tract on Chicot Road
just south of 1-30 from "R-2" to "C-4." Currently, there is
a two-story structure located in the southwest corner and
the balance of the site is used as an RV trailer park. The
entire property is nonconforming and -the rezoning request
was filed as the result of an enforcement action because of
some type of expansion of the office use.
Land use in the area includes multi -family, commercial, auto
sales, motels and industrial. The property under
consideration abuts a major industrial operation on two
sides with commercial uses to the north and across Chicot
Road. The zoning pattern is typical of the 1-30 corridor
and includes "R-2," "0-3," "C-4" and "1-2." Several of the
existing uses are still nonconforming and there are some
vacant tracts found throughout the area.
The Geyer Springs West District Plan identifies the site and
some of the surrounding properties for commercial use so the
proposed "C-4" rezoning conforms to the adopted plan. Along
the 1-30 corridor the City has endorsed a mix of commercial
and industrial zoning over the years by rezoning properties
to either "C-3," "C-4" or "1-2." The current "C-4" request
maintains the accepted zoning configuration and Staff
supports the reclassification.
