(Exhibit A) Requested BY: Mr. Henry Blair, owner of Stone Castle Industries. Zonin Light Industrial (LI} Purpose of Request: Special Conditional Use Permit #SCU92-002 is requested to allow Stone Castle Industries to locate at the above referenced facility for the purpose of manufacturing azchitectural and ornamental trim from synthetic stone. This business activity, SIC #3272, is listed by Zoning Ordinance Section 7-500, Table • A, as conditional in LI zones. Background: The facility in question, which consists of two (2) buildings, is owned and operated by Barrett's Air Conditioning and Heating. Barrett's is down sizing its operation and is proposing to lease the "rear" building to Stone Castle Industries. This rear building was constructed some years ago as a secondary or accessory building for Barrett's Air Conditioning. The building has no improved street frontage but rather, is accessed from Barrett's pazking lot. The alley sepazating the two structures has been surfaced with what appeazs to be a shell/gravel mixture and is used as a driveway to the reaz structure (see Exhibit A). While current ordinance provisions would prohibit construction of a new building without its own improved street frontage, the reaz building can be considered as a legally pre-existing, non-conforming structure in regards to this issue. As the applicant is proposing no building additions or site modifications, staff is considering the present situation as an acceptable given. However, if this building were to be enlazged at any time in the future, development of the LJ • Page 2 of 4 • Planning & Zoning Commission SCU92-002 unimproved North 12th Street right-of--way would become necessary. The issue of parking and traffic control is discussed further in the analysis section of this report. Stone Castle manufactures its products by blending sand and polymer resins. This mixture is then poured into moulds. The end product is a material which visually resembles various types of stone and is shaped for specific applications. Mr. Blair, the applicant, will present photo examples of typical products to the Commission during the Public Hearing. Based on information provided by the applicant, the entire operation will take place indoors. The sand and other raw materials must be protected from rain and other contaminants. All material storage will also be indoors. Products will be produced in relatively small runs of 300 - 500 pound batches. Analysis: Zoning Ordinance Section 7-700 establishes performance standards for Industrial, Conditional Uses. These standards are too lengthy to list verbatim in this report. They can be found on pages 63 and 64 of the Zoning Ordinance. The standards, as they apply to this request, are as follows: A. ZYaffic Control: The intent of this section is to prevent excessive traffic congestion and safety hazards. The requirement also seeks to keep industrial traffic out of residential neighborhoods. The property in question is located in a Light Industrial zone. There is ready access to nearby truck routes; specifically, Highway 146, West Main Street (west of Hwy. 146.), and Barbour's Cut Boulevard. L~ • • • • Page 3 of 4 Planning & Zoning Commission SCU92-002 B. C. D. E. • Existing on-site parking should be Stone Castle and Barrett's ongoin business should have little impact volume or patterns. Drainage: adequate for both g operation. This on existing traffic This is an existing facility. No building additions or site modifications are proposed. Drainage is not applicable to this request. Compatibil~ with Surrounding Area: The facility is located in a relatively undeveloped Light Industrial zone. As noted, all storage and processing will take place indoors. There should be no incompatibility with the surrounding area. Required Licenses Obtained: If the requested Conditional Use Permit is approved, the applicant will have to obtain a City Zoning Permit and a City Industrial Waste Permit. These are the only operating permits required for this type of business. Availability and Adeguac~of Public Services: Utilities and services currently available to the rear structure appear to be adequate. Both of Barrett's buildings are supplied with water from a single meter. They also share a common sewer tap. The property is to remain under single ownership. Stone Castle is leasing not purchasing the rear building. Stone Castle's manufacturing process does not rely heavily on water. The primary water and sewer demand will be to accommodate the sanitary needs to the approximately five employees to be working out of the building. The building does have its own restrooms. Impact on water and sewer systems should be minimal. • Page 4 of 4 • Planning & Zoning Commission SCU92-002 F. Loading Berths: • While this building does not have any loading berths as such, there is a large overhead door with adequate off street maneuvering room to accumulate loading and unloading. There will be no obstruction of pedestrian traffic or visual obstruction of rights-of--way. Conclusion: The request satisfies Zoning Ordinance prerequisites and is therefore, eligible for the requested permit. Staff recommends approval of Special Conditional Use Permit #SCU92-002. i :.~ _-~ ~~ •-~ ~ 7 - I a - a s L_ 314 I p - O 19.4 x ~ O 0 9 ~ ~ ~ ' ~ 302 _ ~ p a • 19,2 '~nTE S T ADAMS u ~_ S T . . r --- ~ J5"RCP -.- , •-. • - ! - ' ~, . - Yll BUILDING IN QUESTION ~ T - ~ ` ( - 20T BARRETT'S AIR CONDITIONING l\ _,.._ 1 . t 1 ( ' POC1tJiq - 205 - -- ~. .. • ~ 1 CP 20~ RCP 210 .6 201 201 15" 15" R C P _ 242 ~ /6 i ~ ~_ - - - - - - 18" j P t a ~- RC =gyp 15"RCP WEST, POLK S 2h ~ ~ , ~ ~ .~ - ,t29- 1 O _.

As some Commission Members may recall, a Master Plan (General Plan) was previously approved several years ago (March 28, 1977}. This plan has been included as Exhibit B in your packet. Over the years, circumstances have changed. Hams County Flood Control now requires detention of stormwater runoff. This requires the addition of some type of detention facility on the undeveloped land. In addition, the airport is now planning an extension of a runway which requires that the Famngton Blvd. extension shown on the Comprehensive Thoroughfare Plan be adjusted. In order to account for these problems, the developer and the City of La Porte have been working together to develop a revised General Plan which will address all of the problems and also provide a subdivision which has the aesthetics normally expected in new developments. The resultant revised General Plan is shown on Exhibit A in your packet. • The key items that have addressed the problems include: A. The City of La Porte will trade the existing park located in the northeast portion of the subdivision for a site located adjacent to the proposed detention facility and Big Island Slough. A trade of 3.97 acres for 8.38 acres of land for the new park site. B. The detention facility and the new park will be combined to allow for a shallow detention facility which will be used for park facility during dry times. C. ~ The proposed Farrington Blvd. extension can now be made and still allow for the runway extension. D. The new street alignment now more closely resembles what is standard design principles. It has eliminated the straight street concept for the newer approach of short, non-thoroughfare type streets. This concept eliminates houses facing collector or arterial facilities. E. The new General Plan allows for the phasing of the subdivision which will be done in conjunction with market conditions. • Planning & Zoning Commission • Glen Meadows -Staff Report Page 2 of 2 Conclusion and Recommendation In view of the facts presented above, the staff recommends approval of the revised General Plan as presented. Per the Development Ordinance, this will serve as authorization for the developer to file a Preliminary Subdivision Plat on the property. The developer will have up to one (1) year to file the preliminary plat for approval or file for an extension of the General Plan. • • • • • STAFF REPORT ' City of La Porte Planning an~oning Commission/Zoning Board adjustment Planning Schedule -January thru March, 1993 • Dec. 31 5:00 P.M.
