�rTAFF ANALYS I S
The property in question is situated approximately 100 feet
east of Bowman Road and the request is to rezone the site
from R-2 to C-3. At this time, no information has been
provided to the staff about a specific use or user for the
location. The site is vacant, however, it appears that it
was occupied by some type of self-service gas station. The
tract has 133 feet of frontage on Bowman and a depth of
145 feet.
Zoning in the area includes R-2, MF -12, MF -18, 0-3, C-3 and
PCD. The property abuts C-3 along the east side and there
is some C-3 land to the south. Land use is made up of
single family residences, office, commercial, a plumbing
contractor, a plant nursery and mini -storage units. The
land uses at the Bowman/Kanis intersection are a liquor
store, the plant nursery, an unoccupied building and vacant
land. There are several nonconforming uses and undeveloped
tracts found throughout the area. The C-3 parcel to the
west is primarily vacant at this time.
The adopted land use plan for the area identifies the south
side of Kanis, including the site under consideration, as
neighborhood commercial. Therefore, either C-1 or C-3 would
be the appropriate district for recommended land use
pattern. Since Kanis is classified as a minor arterial and
the city has supported C-3 in the immediate vicinity, a

reclassification to C-3 appears to be a reasonable option
for the site. There are no plan or zoning issues associated
with this rezoning proposal.
LAND USE PLAN ELEMENT
The request is in the I-430 District. The adopted plan
calls for neighborhood commercial - no issue.
ENGINEERING COMMENTS
The right-of-way standard for Ranis Road, a minor arterial,
is 90 feet or 45 feet from the centerline. The existing
right-of-way is deficient and dedication of additional
right-of-way will be required.
