E. STAFF ANALYSIS:
Conner Property Limited Partnership, owner of the 0.52 Acre property at
6400 Scott Hamilton Drive, is requesting to rezone the property from 1-2"
Light Industrial District to "C-3" General Commercial District. The rezoning
is proposed in order to utilize the existing commercial building as a funeral
home.
There is a one-story vacant commercial building on the property which was
previously used as a branch bank facility. There is paved parking on the
east side of the building. There are paved driveways along the south and
west sides of the building. Access drives from Scott Hamilton Drive and
Wall Street serve the property.
The property is located in an area primarily made up of mixed light industrial
uses. There is a day care center and an office use across Wall Street to the
north, with industrial uses further north. A gas station is located immediately

south, with undeveloped property across West 65th Street. A retail use and
mixed industrial uses are located to the west. Mixed industrial uses are
located across Scott Hamilton Drive to the east.
The City's Future Land Use Plan designates this property as Commercial.
The requested C-3 zoning does not require a change to the Land Use Plan.
Staff is supportive of the requested rezoning. The four (4) lots bounded by
Scott Hamilton Drive, Wall Street, Dividend Street and West 65th Street
are shown as Commercial on the Land Use Plan. The past use of this
property has been office/commercial and not industrial. The two (2) lots
immediately west along Dividend Street were previously changed to C-3
for retail use. Staff feels that the requested rezoning to C-3 for use of the
existing building as a funeral home is appropriate, and should have no
adverse impact on the adjacent properties or the general area.
F. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the requested C-3 rezoning.
