STAFF ANALYSIS
The property at 4716 Baseline Road is currently zoned R-2,
and the request is to rezone the site to C-4. Currently,
there are two uses on the 2.8 acres, a group of mini -storage
units and Rug Doctor. Both uses are nonconforming and the
owners would like to add another structure to house
additional storage units. Rezoning of the site must first
be accomplished because the ordinance prohibits expansion of
nonconforming uses. Also, site plan review will be required
because of having multiple buildings on the property.
In the surrounding area, the primary zoning is R-2; other
nearby zoning includes 0-3 and C-3. Land use is a
combination of single family, mobile home parks, a church, a
school, office and auto related uses. For properties that
front on Baseline, the existing uses range from a church to
a small neighborhood commercial center. The site under
consideration abuts single family lots on two sides and a
commercial use to the west. Directly across Baseline Road,
there is a commercial use.
The Geyer Springs East land use plan shows the property as
part of a large commercial area that extends from Geyer
Springs to Doyle Springs. Reclassifications to nonresiden-

tial districts in the immediate vicinity have been to either
0-3 or C-3. Because of the previous zoning actions in the
neighborhood, staff feels that C-3 is more consistent with
the area. A C-3 rezoning will maintain the zoning pattern
established by other rezonings and provide a level of
commercial services that are compatible with the adjacent
properties.
In the C-3 district, mini -warehouse units are listed as
conditional use. Therefore, a condition use permit will
need to be approved by the Planning Commission, in addition
to the rezoning action to allow the new units. The
conditional use permit process requires a site plan, so the
multiple building issue would be addressed by the permit
review.
ENGINEERING COMMENTS
The right-of-way standard for Baseline Road is 90 feet, or
45 feet from the centerline. Dedication of additional
right-of-way will be required because the exiting
right-of-way is deficient.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of C-3 and not C-4 as requested.

Ben Kittler was present and stated that he was representing
Ron and Dale Broadaway, the owners. There were no
objectors. Mr. Kittler indicated that the owners have no
problems with the C-3 reclassification if the site's
nonconforming status did not become an issue.
Jerry Gardner, a city engineer, commented on the
right-of-way dedication for Baseline Road. Also, he
discussed a franchise possibility for the building
encroachment. There were additional comments made about
the right-of-way dedication and a franchise agreement.
