CONCEPT REVIEW FOR REZONING
Harrison Ave. South
RECOMMENDATION: I recommend denial of the concept to rezone.
MARCH 14, 1986
PURPOSE: To review and recommend action on a concept review to rezone from R -1 -A
to B -3.
Name of Applicant: Gary L. Capone
Address of Property: Two lots immediately south of 702 East Excelsior
Avenue.
Present Zoning: R -1 -A
Nature of Request: To rezone from R -1 -A to B -3.
Reason for Request: To construct a storage building.
The Applicant is proposing to construct a 50'x 50'storage building on
the two lots adjacent to his business at 702 East Excelsior. The subject
property is zoned R -1 -A. In order to construct a storage building the
zoning would have to be changed. The lots will meet the minimun require-
ment for a B -3 district.
Currently the site is an empty lot used for parking and storage by the
adjacent business.
The applicant has contacted the surrounding neighbors, it appears none
have objected.
ANALYSIS: Anything done to the site would be an improvement, however, to rezone
would intrude into a residential area. If this rezoning would be allowed,
a precedent would be set for other businesses along Excelsior Avenue to
do the same. Another consideration for the Commission, is what will happen
to the cars parked on the lot now?

It is my intention to build a storage building or garage on the
properties to the south of 702 Excelsior Avenue East, actually
fronting Harrison Avenue on lots 31 and 32.
It's purpose is to provide adequate storage for products used in
our business, and to eliminate unsightly refuse, and frequent
vandalizisms and pilferage•of a product unable to be contained
within our existing facility.
