extraterritorial jurisdiction. The property is zoned R-2. A PCD is the typical process for
creating new nonresidential development sites in predominantly residential areas.
A. PROPOSAL/REQUEST/APPLICANT'S STATEMENT:
The proposed site consists of two tracts containing a total of approximately 2.223-
acres northwest of the Colonel Glenn Road and Marsh Road intersection. This
vacant land would be developed with a 9,100 square foot general merchandise
retail store. The site would have 31 parking spaces (2 accessible) and a single
drive access to Colonel Glenn Road. The dumpster would be situated at the
northeast corner of the proposed building and enclosed by a wood fence. A 6-foot
wood privacy fence would be placed around the site perimeter to screen the
building from adjacent properties. Lighting would be directed downward and
toward the site interior so as not to encroach upon neighboring properties. The
site would be serviced by a septic system and existing water lines located along
Colonel Glenn Road. A propane tank would also provide gas.
Right-of-way for Colonel Glenn Road would be dedicated-
B. EXISTING CONDITIONS:
The property is undeveloped.
A vacant commercial structure is situated opposite this parcel near the southwest
corner of Colonel Glenn Road and Marsh Road. Immediately west of this building
is a residence with a metal out -building that is significantly larger than the house.
To the northwest of the property is a vacant residential structure and a residence
is to the southeast.
The area is sparsely developed with primarily residential uses.
C. NEIGHBORHOOD COMMENTS:
As of this writing, staff has received several phone calls from the public about the
request. The callers were seeking information on the proposed development and
were generally supportive. Notice of the public hearing was sent to all owners of
properties located within 200 feet of the site and the Citizens of West Pulaski
County neighborhood association.

G. TRANSPORTATION/PLANNING-
Rock Region Metro: No comment received.
Planning Division: The request is in the Ellis Mountain Planning District. The
Land Use Plan shows Commercial (C) for the requested area. Commercial
category includes a broad range of retail and wholesale sales of products, personal
and professional services, and general business activities. Commercial activities
vary in type and scale, depending on the trade area that they serve. The application
is to change an area from R-2 (Single Family District) to PCD (Planned Commercial
Development) District to allow development of a retail center.
Master Street Plan: To the south is Colonel Glenn Road and it is Principal Arterial
on the Master Street Plan. A Principal Arterial is to serve through traffic and to
connect major traffic generators or activity centers within the urbanized area.
Entrances and exits should be limited to minimize negative effects of traffic and
pedestrians on Colonel Glenn Road since it is a Principal Arterial. This street may
require dedication of right-of-way and may require street improvements for
entrances and exits to the site.
Bicycle Plan: There is a Class II Bike Route shown on Colonel Glenn Road.
A Bike Lane provides a portion of the pavement for the sole use of bicycles.
H. SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE COMMENT: January 29, 2020
The applicant was present. Staff presented the item to the committee.
Planning staff had no comments beyond the reminder for the req property owner
notification.
Public works indicated half -street improvements conforming to the Master Street
Plan would be required with the development of the site. The improvements would
include a 5-foot sidewalk. Storm water detention is also required on this property.
A letter from a registered engineer certifying the intersections comply with 2004
AASHTO Green Book standards is needed.

ANALYSIS:
A revised site plan and comment responses were provided by the applicant.
The right-of-way for Colonel Glenn Road and half -street improvements would be
provided as per the Master Street Plan.
Storm water detention has been added to the west of the proposed building.
The required certification of the sight distance for the driveway has been provided.
The driveway would be fully functional and have three 12-foot wide lanes.
The number of parking spaces provided is 30, 2 of which are accessible. This
complies with the minimum number of parking spaces required for the proposed
building and use.
The specific details requested by County Planning have been addressed in the
revised plans as well.
The landscape plan has been revised and existing plant materials will be
maintained to address the insufficiency.
It appears all technical issues have been addressed.
A pylon sign 22-feet in height and 96 square feet in area is proposed. A building
sign of 150 square feet is also proposed. Both comply with the standards for
commercial uses.
Dumpsters are located to the east of the building and will be screened as required.
An additional fire hydrant would be added to the east of the access drive.
Staff is supportive of the request as it will provide an additional convenient location
for general retail needs.
J. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the request to rezone the property to POD subject

Planning Division.
Planning Division: The request is in the Ellis Mountain Planning District. The Land Use
Plan shows Commercial (C) for the requested area. Commercial category includes a
broad range of retail and wholesale sales of products, personal and professional services,
and general business activities. Commercial activities vary in type and scale, depending
on the trade area that they serve The application is to change an area from R-2 (Single
Family District) to PCD (Planned Commercial Development) District to allow development
of a retail center.
Master Street Plan: To the south is Colonel Glenn Road and it is Principal Arterial on the
Master Street Plan. A Principal Arterial is to serve through traffic and to connect major
traffic generators or activity centers within the urbanized area. Entrances and exits should
be limited to minimize negative effects of traffic and pedestrians on Colonel Glenn Road
since it is a Principal Arterial. This street may require dedication of right-of-way and may
require street improvements for entrances and exits to the site.
B:cycle Plan: There is a Class II Bike Route shown on Colonel Glenn Road. A Bike
Lane provides a portion of the pavement for the sole use of bicycles.
