E. STAFF ANALYSIS:
Louis E. Bona, owner of three (3) acre property located on the south side of
Kanis Road (approximately 500 feet east of Barrow Road), is requesting to
rezone the property from "R-2" Single Family District to "C-3" General
Commercial District. The rezoning is proposed for future development of
the property.
The property is undeveloped and tree -covered. The property slopes
downward from front to back (north to south).
The general area contains a mixture of uses and zoning. There is a
mixture of office and commercial uses located within the C-3 zoning
across Kanis Road to the north. Undeveloped 0-3 zoned property is
located to the south, with an apartment complex to the southeast. There
is a narrow undeveloped C-3 zoned parcel immediately to the west, with a
mixture of commercial uses further west along Barrow Road.
Undeveloped C-3 zoned property is also located to the east.
The City's Future Land Use Plan designates this property as Mixed Office
Commercial. A Land Use Plan Amendment for a change to Commercial
is a separate item on this agenda (Item 3).
Staff is supportive of the requested C-3 zoning. Staff feels the requested
rezoning is appropriate. The properties immediately east and west of this
site, as well as the property across Kanis Road to the north, are zoned
C-3. Staff feels the rezoning of this parcel to C-3 will allow for the unified
development of the undeveloped property along the south side of Kanis
Road, between Barrow Road and Michael Drive. Staff believes the
requested C-3 zoning will have no adverse impact on the general area.
F. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
