William Hartman, 1.08 Ac. at225 & hwy. 146 <br />The City has received a request from Mr. J. William Hartman to rezone <br />a tract of land (legal description attached) at Hwy. 225 and Hwy. 146 <br />from zone "C" Commercial to zone "I" Industrial to allow a new car <br />marshalling yard. <br />HISTORY <br />The site in question is North of the old Westinghouse tract at the <br />Hwy. 146, Hwy. 225 interchange. The site will be utilized for the <br />marshalling of imported automobiles and parts. This property is not <br />served by City utilities and has no on-site well or septic tank. <br />Initial interpretations indicate that utility extensions will be <br />required. The cost of the extensions will be born by the applicant. <br />ANALYSIS <br />The location has been compared to both the proposed land use map and <br />the proposed zoning map for reference. This area is proposed to <br />become "LI" Light Industrial on both maps. The proposed use lends <br />itself well to an "I" Industrial zoning classification as it is the <br />closest zoning classification to the "LI" proposed. This property is <br />within 1/2 mile of several marshalling and storage yards including the <br />Barbours Import Service, BMW of North America, and Central Freight <br />....Line on the west side of 146. <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />The proposed use of this property as a new car marshalling yard is in <br />line with the comprehensive plan and the proposed new zoning map. A <br />special use permit must also be granted by the Planning and Zoning <br />Board of Adjustments prior to the development of the site. <br />Based on above review and the comparison to the comprehensive plan <br />staff would recommend that the rezoning from "C" to "I" be granted. <br />• <br />
