properties in the area and is constructing public utilities through the area. Allowing two <br />buildings onto one lot will also maximize City tax revenue. <br /> <br />Reduced rear yard Setback: The, northern building is located along Basalt St. The main <br />building access will be from the parking lot west of the building. Under City Code, the <br />front yard runs parallel to the public street. Therefore, even though the main customer <br />and employee access will come from the parking lot, it is Staff's determination that the <br />front yard is the east side of the building along Basalt St. The side yards would be the <br />north (parking lot) and south (maneuvering area). The rear yard is on the west side of the <br />building. A rear yard setback is 35 feet. The western edge (rear) of the building is only <br />located 26 feet from the western property line. The lot itself is only 200 feet deep and <br />with the required setbacks, it is difficult to meet the rear yard setback. Also due to <br />desirability and need of the shared maneuvering area, it is impossible to reorient the <br />building. It should be noted that this building will back up to an outdoor storage area for <br />Sauter and Sons. Staff feels that the reduced rear yard setback is acceptable due to the <br />lack of depth of the lot, the use of the property, and the adjacent land use to the west. <br /> <br />The Planning Commission met on September 4 and conducted a public hearing regarding the <br />'request to rezone the property to PUD. There were no written or verbal comments submitted <br />regarding the rezoning request. <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br /> <br />The Planning Commission has recommended that the property be rezoned to PUD provided that <br />the permitted uses remain the same as the underlying zoning district, E-1 Employment.. <br /> <br />Council Action: <br /> <br />Motion to adopt Resolution #03-0% adopting Findings of Fact #00 to rezone the subject <br />property (currently legally described as Lots 2, 3 and 4, Gateway North Industrial Park Plat 2) <br />from E-1 Employment District to Planned Unit Development (PUD). <br /> <br />-and- <br /> <br />Motion to introduce an Ordinance to rezone the subject property (currently legally described as <br />Lots 2, 3 and 4, Gateway North Industrial Park Plat 2) to Planned Unit Development (PUD), <br />based on findings of fact. <br /> <br />-or- <br /> <br />Motion to deny the request to rezone the subject property (currently legally described as Lots 2, 3 <br />and 4, Gateway North Industrial Park Plat 2) to Planned Unit Development (PUD), based on <br />findings of fact. <br /> <br />Reviewed by: <br />Community Development Director <br /> <br />CC: 09/23/03 <br /> <br /> <br />
