Explanation
Rezoning Amendment Z11-031A
Ordinance #2310-2011, passed January 23, 2012 (Z11-031), rezoned 0.89± acres from the L-C-5, Limited Commercial District to the CPD, Commercial Planned Development District. That legislation established specific development standards for the construction of a hotel, which included restrictions that the building height be limited to seventy feet, and that the hotel contain a maximum of 50,000 square feet. The applicant desires to remove the building height and size restrictions to allow the hotel to exceed seventy feet in height and 50,000 square feet in area while staying in compliance with the Zoning Code requirements for building height and parking. The revised CPD Plan includes the addition of a parking deck to accommodate the required number of parking spaces, and access control language has been added to the CPD text to ensure motorist safety within the parking structure. The size and height restrictions were not requested by any of the City Departments, and Staff believes these changes are negligible. This ordinance will amend Ordinance #2310-2011 by repealing Section 3, and replacing it with a new Section 3 with a modified Commercial Planned Development plan and text. All other use restrictions and development standards established by Ordinance #2310-2011 are unchanged and shall remain in effect.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
