REGULAR AGENDA
Action Agenda
1. Consider and act upon approval of a Site Plan for an existing retail
building on Tract 20 of S. Shelby Survey, Abstract A0820. Subject
property being located at 403 S. State Highway 78.
Mr. Lee stated that the property owner/applicant is proposing to utilize the
existing commercial building by converting it into a retail furniture store and
warehouse. The property is zoned Commercial Corridor (CC) District, and totals
0.45 acres in size.
Mr. Lee reviewed with the Commissioners the various improvements that the
property owner/applicant had to make into order to meet the nonresidential
design standards of the Zoning Ordinance. In working with the applicant, the
parking was calculated separately based on retail use and warehouse use,
partially due to limits of the property imposed by the large right-of-way along
State Highway 78 and geometric design limits along Williams Street. In addition,
Mr. Lee noted that the property has direct access to both SH 78 and Williams
Street.
Commissioner Onufreiczuk questioned the landscaping and parking. Mr. Lee
stated that the parking on the west side of the building is allowed to have parallel
parking. Additional trees and shrubbery is required along the eastside of the
building, between the adjacent property and the subject property. Before a
Certificate of Occupancy is issued, the additional landscaping and parking
requirements will need to be met.
A motion was made by Vice-Chair Ames, and seconded by Commissioner
Onufreiczuk, to approve the Site Plan for an existing retail building on Tract 20 of
S. Shelby Survey, Abstract A0820, located at 403 S. State Highway 78. Motion
carried 6— 0.
