Absent and not voting: none_ MOTION CARRIED (BILL NO. 5 - REZONE FOR PUBLIC STORAGE OF CALDWELL - DICK PHILIPS) The Planning and Zoning Director, Jim Blizzard, reviewed the memo that was distributed to the City Council Members with regard to the rezone for Public Storage of Caldwell. Mr. Blizzard's information was as follows: The request was to rezone a portion of Tract U, Mountain View Subdivision, from R -3 (High Density Residential) to C -3 (Service Commercial) as requested by Public Storage of Caldwell, Richard M. Phillips, Agent. The location was a parcel located adjacent to 3202 Cleveland Blvd. legally described as a portion of the south 1/2 of Tract U, Mountain View Subdivision. The applicant is requesting rezoning of the subject property from R -3 to C -3 to allow for the expansion of the existing mina. - warehouse /storage business located immediately north of the site. The applicant has also submitted an application to the Planning and Zoning Commission for a special use permit. This application was tabled by the Commission until the rezoning application is approved. The subject property is undeveloped and approximately 5.0 acres in area and is in the R -3 zoning district. Adjacent uses include a storage /warehousing business immediately north, a mobile home park on the west, a single family residence near the southwest corner of the parcel and vacant R -2 (Medium Density Residential) or C -3 property on the south and east side. A portion of Tract U was rezoned from R -2 to R -3 in 1980. In 1989, the City approved another rezoning request to allow C -3 uses in the northern half of the property as well as a special use permit for the warehouse use. In October, 1990, a Special Use Permit allowing for the expansion of an existing storage business was conditionally approved. Conditions of approval for this permit included installing a sight obscuring fence along the east and south property lines where adjacent to residential zoned land and installation of trees and shrubs along the Cherry and Locust Street frontages and restrictions on the number of vehicles which can be sold on the property. The Planning and Zoning Commission conducted a public hearing for this application on January 30, 1992. Staff's recommendation to the Commission was to table this application until such time as the Land Use Element of the Comprehensive Plan had been revised and adopted. Public testimony at the hearing was made by one person owning property within the 300 foot public notice mailing radius as well as by a number of persons resident in areas beyond that area. The Commission voted 4 -3 to recommend to the Council denial of the rezoning based upon finding that the request is not in conformance with the Comprehensive Plan and it may be detrimental to the surrounding neighborhoods. This application was considered by the City Council at a public hearing on March 2, 1992. The four Councilors in attendance voted unanimously to delay action until such time as the entire Council has the opportunity to review the case and consider testimony made at the hearing. Book 33 Page 67 Mr. Blizzard further stated that Staff offers the following analysis nf the raques0: 1. The City Comprehensive Plan indicates that the subject property is within an area designated for medium densi7y residential development. This designation does not provids for the proposed commercial use of the property. Furthermo._ the Plan states thy. "commercial areas allocated in the Plan should be adequate for growth in business which is eynected to occur". Staff does not find that the request is in conformance with, the Plan. 2. The applicant claims that this application is a response to a growing damand for additional storage in the community. There are no apparent opportunities for the applicant to provide for additional storage on the existing C-3 zoned portion of his property nor is it a practical solution for him to acquire and expand onto the vacant commercial land across Locust Street. Staff finds that the applicant has applied for the rezoning as his most prac alternative to expand his business. 3. Considerable testimony has been made to the effec that the proposed zoning and use will have adverse impacts to adjacent ond surrounding property including the loss of the R-3 zoning and result in inappropriate transition between lanb uses of higher and lower intensity. Staff finds that problems of this nature might be mitigated by requiring landscaping, sight obscuring fence, restrictions an lighting ar! signs, as well as deep se.tbacks from streets, and restricting access to Via storage use. Staff does not find that the proposed use will resul in excessive noise or traffic. Future residential development to the south might be designed so that WOR do not front on Cherry Street. 4. Existing public facilities and services, including streets, utilities, fire and police protection can serve the proposed use. If the special use permit is approved, the City Fiia Mars nal has identified a need to provide restricted access gates off of Cherry Street for emergency vehicles and installation of fire hydrants. The City Engineering Department recommends conditions of approval include the installation of curb and gutter and paving of half of the driving lane. Other existing public services and facilities are adeq . for the pro,, use , 5. tether uses permitted in. the C-3 district, without the hanefit of a public hearing mi. ght occur once the rezon� is approved. Some of these uses might present development, problems other than those asscc- - ,iith the storage use. Mr. Blizzard further .__:formes. Council that the Staff recommends that the City Council uphold the Planning and Zoning Commission's decision and deny this application to rezone a portion of Trant U, Mountain View Subdivision from R-3 to C-3, base6 upon finding to proposed zoning would not be in conformance - , , ,ith t1ae Compre. �Ian. City Wuncil Members discussed this request at some length including the possible change of use in the future and the use of a buffer area to benefit other property owners. The Council also asked Mr. Philips to clarify several of their concurns ragording the request. Councilman Raymond suggested that a decision be delayed to see if some plan could be devised to provide a b 'fifer on their property. This would allow Vz. Philips ao opportunity to consider other possibilities. Councilman Ozuna further suggested some lands<::aping along the back :ide of the property. Council;an Raymond then. MOVED delay first -reading of Bill No, 5. Mr. was recognized and stated that the Council shouln open th, meeting for discussion in opposition to Mr, Philips- The City Attorney assured Council that the City Ccvncil cnly asked for clarification from Mr. Philips; not testimony. Therefore, the hearing portion of this issue was glee at thc last meeting. Book 33 Page 68 Councilman Houchins indicated that he did not believe the first reading of the Bill was the issue at this time. The decision was whether this should be considered for a Comprehensive Plan change. Councilman Raymond then MOVED to continue the discussion on the rezone under Bill No. 5 to the next meeting. The motion died due to a lack of a second. The Planning and Zoning Director pointed out that if the application from Mr. Philips was substantially changed from what was presented at the Planning and Zoning hearing, part of the process would be lost as far as public participation. The Council would be acting on a different package than what was presented to the Commission. Councilman Nancolas stated that he thought the subject tonight was not whether Caldwell needed more storage, but rather where does this plan fit into existing Comprehensive Plan and land use. If this was changed to C -3, it would immediately jeopardize the buffer zone on the property just south. The obvious change would be to an R -3 which would further jeopardize those residentials around the area. The issue was whether there was conformity and an orderly pattern in that particular area and does it fit in with the Comprehensive Plan. Councilman Nancolas further said that he would also like to have some medium ground here, but he did not feel that this was the subject at this time. The issue was whether to uphold or over turn the Planning and Zoning's decision to deny. Based on the information received through the hearing process, he did not 'believe changing it to C -3 did the area justice. Perhaps, Mr. Philips needed to reapply with a revised request. At this time, Mr. Nancolas stated that he could not support the request for a zone change at this time. MOVED by Nancolas, SECONDED by Ozuna that the City Council uphold the Planning and Zoning Commission's recommendation to deny the zone change. Councilman Raymond asked the City Attorney if it would be necessary to start the procedure over again. Mr. Morrow, the City Attorney, stated that if there was a substantial change, they would have to start over. The Mayor then requested a roll call vote. Those voting yes: Nancolas, Murdoch, Carpenter, Houchins, Raymond, and Ozuna. Those voting no: none. Absent and not voting: none. MOTION CARRIED Councilman Raymond commented that he would hope that a different request would come back to the City Council as he would like to see Cleveland Boulevard developed with going businesses succeeding and expanding. However, he also wanted to protect neighborhoods. NEW BUSINESS (FINAL PLAN FOR MARSHALL FIELD SUBDIVISION) The Planning and Zoning Director informed Council that the final plat of Marshall Field Subdivision has been reviewed and approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission as well as reviewed by Staff. The recommended action by all was to approve the Final Plat. MOVED by Ozuna, SECONDED by Houchins that the Final Plat for Marshall Field Subdivision be accepted. Roll call vote.
