Title
Conduct a public hearing and consider an ordinance for Zoning Application No. Z0725-0411, submitted by Mark Cohen on behalf of Town East Shopping Center, for a change of zoning from Service Station to General Retail to allow uses permitted by-right in the General Retail zoning district located at 2801 Motley Drive.
(No responses in favor or in opposition to the application have been received from property owners within the statutory notification area. The Planning and Zoning Commission recommends approval.)
Body
The applicant is requesting a zoning change to rezone the property from Service Station (SS) to General Retail (GR) to allow for a future drive-through restaurant. While the SS district permits restaurants, it also requires fuel sales, which the applicant does not intend to provide. Therefore, the request is to rezone the property to GR. If approved, any future development on the site must comply with the standards of the GR zoning district. Additionally, any use requiring a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) in the GR zoning district would still be required to obtain a CUP.
On August 25, 2025, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted 6-0 to recommend approval of the request.
Recommended/Desired Action
Following the public hearing, staff recommends that the City Council take action.
