MEMO TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
Q�
FROM: BRUNO RUMBELOW, CITY MANAGER
MEETING DATE: MAY 18, 2010
SUBJECT: CONDITIONAL USE REQUEST CU10-05
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council approve Conditional Use Application CU10-05 on the
second reading of an ordinance, and take any other action necessary.
BACKGROUND:
Conditional Use Request CU10-05 was submitted by Michael T. Cantrell and was
approved on the first reading of an ordinance by Council at the April 20, 2010 meeting.
The request was to allow sales, service and outside storage of lawn equipment in the
"Ll" Light Industrial District within an existing structure. The applicant sought approval of
two variances and a special exception respectively, relative to lot depth and area, and
encroachments into building setbacks, parking within the landscape setback area and
required parking. The subject lot was part of Lots 1-4 of the Lipscomb & Daniel
Subdivision originally platted in 1948, predating the City's first zoning ordinance. The
site is an existing developed lot, and the existing structure was built in 1967 prior to the
rezoning of the site in the 1984 City Rezoning. Platted and developed lots exist adjacent
to the subject site, eliminating the possibility to expand the site. The Board approved the
variances and special exception requests at their May 3, 2010 meeting.
