A furniture store is not listed in <br />the B-5 district as either a permitted or conditional use. In April 1986. the City Council determined <br />that the proposed furniture store was compatible with the other uses in the zoning district and would <br />operate substantially similar to a “gallery”. In October 1986, the City Council approved the <br />commercial site plan for the furniture store. Again in June 1998, the City Council approved the <br />commercial site plan for the current furniture store. <br />Ms. Hensley is asking for the same consideration that was granted, noting “Hope Chest for Breast <br />Cancer” is compatible with the other uses in the zoning district and would operate substantially <br />similar to a “gallery” and furniture store (as the property has ftmetioned since 1987). “Hope Chest for <br />Breast Cancer” is \ ery similar in use to the furniture sales use currently in the building, the only <br />difference being resale of “pre-owned” furniture and accessories versus sale of new furniture and <br />accessories. <br />“Hope Chest for Breast Cancer” plans to use the building ver>' much the same as it is currently. TTie <br />interior of the building will remain the same with partitions dividing the building into sections. <br />Minor remodeling may occur such as installing new carpet. The e.xterior of the building will also <br />remain the same with potential of adding additional Iand.scaping such as flowers and bulbs <br />augmenting existing landscaping. <br />»<02-283 1 <br />“Hope Chest for Breast Cancer” <br />9/10/02 <br />Page 2 of4
