STAFF ANALYSIS
This issue is before the Planning Commission due to an
enforcement action by the City. The site is zoned R-2, and
has C-3 non -conforming status. A transmission shop and used
car lot, C-4 uses, recently occupied the location and a
zoning violation notice was issued by the City. The owner is
now requesting a R-2 to C-4 rezoning for the property.
Zoning in the general vicinity is R-2, C-3, C-4 and I-2. The
nonresidential zoning for the properties fronting I-30 is a
combination of C-3, C-4 and I-2. Land use is a mix of single
family, commercial, industrial, and a mobile home park. A
number of uses are non -conforming and there are several
vacant tracts found throughout the area.
Over the years, the City has endorsed a zoning configuration
of C-3, C-4 and I-2 along the I-30 corridor. The proposed
C-4 reclassification conforms to established pattern and
should not have any impact on the surrounding land. Also,
the current Otter Creek District plan shows the site for
strip development, and either C-3 or C-4 is the appropriate
zoning classification for the land use element. Therefore,
the C-4 rezoning does not create any type of plan conflict.
