Hirscheider 8907 Kanis Road Rezone from 11R-2" to "C-3" Commercial 0.96 acres Single Family SURROUNDING LAND USE AND ZONING: North - Office, zoned 110-3" & 11C-4" South - Vacant, zoned 11C-3" East - Office, zoned 11C-3" West Fire Station, zoned 11C-3" STAFF ANALYSIS: The request before the Planning Commission is to rezone one acre at 9807 Kanis Road from 11R-2" to 11C-311. Property is situated on the south side of Kanis Road and approximately 300 feet west of John Barrow Road. At this time, there is a single family residence on the site that is being used as a rental unit. Zoning in the general vicinity is 11R-211, "R-5119 110-3119 "C-3" and "C-411, with the property in question abutting 11C-3" on three sides. Across Kanis Road, the existing zoning is "0-3" and 11C-411. The location is one of the few remaining "R-2" parcels in the area. Land use is very similar to the zoning and includes residential, office, commercial, and a fire station. Adjacent to the site are the fire station on the west, and an office building to the east. Across Kanis Road is a medical clinic. Because of the Kanis/Barrow intersection's proximity to the Baptist Hospital Complex, there are several clinics and other medical related uses in the area. Throughout the neighborhood, there are a number of undeveloped tracts, including the "C-3" directly to the south. 1 September 11, 1990 Item No. 2 -- Z-5349 Continued The site under consideration is shown on the Boyle Park District Plan as part of a mixed use area with office and commercial uses. Therefore, 11C-3" reclassification is compatible with the plan's directions and staff supports the rezoning. ENGINEERING COMMENTS: Kanis Road is classified as a minor arterial, which has a right-of-way standard of 90 feet. The existing right-of-way is deficient and dedication of addtional right-of-way will be required. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the 11C-3" zoning as requested. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: (September 11, 1990) The applicant was present. There were no objectors and the item was placed on the consent agenda. A motion was made to recommend approval of the 11C-3" rezoning as filed. The motion passed by a vote of 10 ayes, 0 nays, and 1 absent. V,
