STAFF ANALYSIS
This issue is before the Planning Commission as a result of
an enforcement action by the City. The property is zoned
C-3 and the applicant started selling cars before having
5404 South University rezoned to C-4. There are three
structures on the site and a high percentage of it is paved.
Zoning along this portion of South University is typical of
the South University corridor and includes C-3, C-4 and I-2.
To the west and east, there is land zoned R-2, R-5 and 0-1.
The property in question abuts C-3 zoning on three sides.
Land use in the general vicinity is made up of single family
residences, churches, commercial, auto sales, motel and a
fire station. To the northwest of the site, there are
several vacant parcels, zoned C-3 and C-4.
Over the years, the City has supported C-3 and C-4 zoning
along South University. Therefore, the requested C-4
reclassification is compatible with the existing zoning
pattern. C-4 also conforms to the adopted land use plan,
65th Street West, which shows the property as part of a
commercial area adjacent to South University.
(In C-4 district, open display is prohibited in the first
20 feet of a required front yard setback.)
