E. STAFF ANALYSIS:
BSILR, LLC, owner of the 3.70 acre property located at 6510 Woodson
Road, is requesting to rezone the property from "R-2" Single Family
District and 1-2" Light Industrial District to "C-3" General Commercial
District (with condition). The rezoning is proposed in order to utilize the

existing commercial structures for wire cable and sling storage, with light
assembly and shipping. A conditional use permit to allow this use is a
separate application on this agenda. The applicant has offered a
condition for the proposed C-3 zoning to eliminate the following uses as
permitted uses for the property:
• bar, lounge or tavern
• establishment for the care of alcoholic, narcotic or psychiatric
patients
• pawn shop
• private club with dining or bar service
• special event center
Currently there is a one-story brick commercial building within the east half
of the property, including a covered, unenclosed area. There is also a
small metal building on the site. Access drives from Woodson Road serve
the property. There is an area of paved parking on the south side of the
buildings. The west portion of the property is undeveloped.
There is a mixture of uses and zoning in this immediate area. A school
and animal clinic are located immediately to the north. Mixed
commercial/industrial uses are located further north across West 65th
Street. Single family and two-family residences are located to the south.
Mixed commercial/industrial uses are located to the west and east (across
Woodson Road).
The City's Future Land Use Plan designates this property as Commercial.
The requested C-3 (with condition) zoning does not require a change to
the future plan.
Staff is supportive of the requested rezoning to C-3 (with condition). Staff
views the request as reasonable. The property has a history of being
utilized as a Southwestern Bell Telephone maintenance facility, including
outdoor storage of materials. The rezoning of this property to C-3 (with
condition) will be consistent with the other commercial and light industrial
zonings in this area along the West 65th Street corridor. Staff believes use
of this property as an enclosed commercial use will have no adverse
impact on the adjacent properties or the general area.
