PUBLIC NOTIFICATION
All owners of property located within 200 feet of the site,
all residents within 300 feet of the site and the Gibralter
Heights -Point West -Timber Ridge Neighborhood Associations
were notified of the rezoning request.
LAND USE PLAN ELEMENT
The site is located in the Ellis Mountain Planning
District. The adopted plan recommends Mixed Office
Commercial for this small site. It is staff's position
that the C-1 zoning request and the accompanying
conditional use permit for a dry-cleaners drop-off/pickup
and an office use meet the intent of the MOC
classification. The requested zoning is not out of
character with the existing zoning pattern and the
existing -proposed uses in the area.
STAFF ANALYSIS
The request before the Commission is to rezone this .52±
acre tract from "R-2" Single Family to 11C-1" Neighborhood
Commercial. This request is associated with an
accompanying conditional use permit for an office and a
drycleaners drop-off/pickup (item 16.1 on this agenda,
Z -6748-A). The site is currently occupied by a one story,
frame structure containing a nonconforming jewelry
manufacturing and sales business. Once rezoned, the
property will be completely redeveloped to accommodate the
proposed new uses.
The site is located within the area of the Chenal
Parkway/Bowman Road/Kanis Road commercial development. The
C-3 zoned property across Kanis Road to the north currently
contains a large landscape supply and nursery business.
Just past that site is the intensely commercial development
of the Chenal Parkway/Bowman Road intersection which
contains a large variety of commercial uses. The C-3 zoned
property adjacent to the west contains a mini -warehouse
development. A nonconforming liquor store is located on
the R-2 zoned property across Bowman Road to the east. The
R-2 zoned property to the south is occupied by a

nonconforming office use and a PD -C zoned commercial
development is located one lot further south. The proposed
C-1 zoning is compatible with uses and zoning in the area.
The Ellis Mountain District Land Use Plan recommends Mixed
Office Commercial for this site. It is staff's opinion
that the C-1 Neighborhood Commercial zoning and the
accompanying conditional use permit for a drycleaners drop-
off/pickup station and an office use meet the intent of the
MOC designation. The use mix proposed by the conditional
use permit is 2,500 sq. ft. for the dry cleaners and 1,300
sq. ft. of quiet office, a mix of 665± for the drycleaners
and 33%± office.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of the requested C-1 zoning.
