O. W. (unimproved) on the west. The property is zoned General Commercial (GC). Mini-Storage warehousing (SIC #4225) is classified as a Conditional Use in GC zone. The reason some uses are conditional in GC zones is that in certain instances the Commission may feel that a use may be appropriate if further conditions are considered on a case-by-case basis. Staff reviewed this request using the Code of Ordinances Sections 106-216, 106-217 (pertains to SCUP), all applicable elements of the La Porte Comprehensive Plan, and other previously approved plans for Texas ImportlExport Park, 16th Street Plan, and City's Bicycle & Pedestrian Trails Plan as a guide. Considerations were given to the following issues: . Character of the surrounding and adjacent properties; . Existing use of nearby properties, and the extent to which a land use classification would be in harmony with such existing uses or the anticipated use of the properties; . Suitability of the property for the uses to which would be permissible, considering density, access and circulation, adequacy of public facilities and services, and other considerations; . Extent to which the designated use of the property would harm the value of adjacent land uses; . Extent to which the proposed use designation would adversely affect the capacity or safety of that portion of road network influenced by the use;
