STAFF ANALYSIS•
The request is rezone 3700 Baseline Road from "R-2" to "C-4"
for an auto related use, a tire service. No plans have been
submitted, so details of the specific development are
unknown at this time. The site is vacant, and has 100 feet
of frontage on Baseline Road.
Land use is very mixed and includes single family, multi-
family, churches, a school, commercial and industrial. The
existing commercial uses range from small retail
establishments to auto sales and service. The zoning is
primarily "R-2" because this area was annexed to the city
several years ago. Therefore, a high percentage of the
commercial and industrial uses are non-conf6rming. There
are two commercially zoned tracts in the general vicinity, a
"C-2" parcel at the southeast corner of Baseline Road and
Hilaro Springs and a 11C-3" site on Scott Hamilton Drive.
The Geyer Springs East Plan shows the north side of Baseline
Road from Mize Road to Community Road for commercial
development. When an area along Baseline Road has been
identified for commercial use on an adopted plan, the City
has endorsed a combination of "C-3" and "4
C-" zoning.

Item Na. 4 - Z-5368 Continued
Staff's position is that the proposed "C-4" reclassification
conforms to the land use plan and the rezoning should not
have any impact on the surrounding properties. Also, the
proposal is not introducing a new land use to the
neighborhood.
ENGINEERING COMMENTS:
The required right-of-way for this segment for Baseline Road
is 45 feet from the center line, the urban standard for a
principal arterial. A portion of the property has the
necessary 45 feet of right-of-way, but there is a piece that
has only has 40 feet, so dedication of some additional
right-of-way will be needed.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the "C-4" rezoning as filed.
PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: (October 23, 1990)
