Zoning File #2024 June 15, 1995 Page 3 Review Exliibit E, applicant proposes the installation of partitions to create a second office area. Applicant proposes no changes within the residential use. Access to the residence will continue to be off Lydiard and all commercial activities will be located off Shadywood. All sisnage allowances for the commercial use will be subject to the signage standards for the B-4 zone. Applicant may wish to consider whether he wishes a permanent address assigned at a Shadywood or Lydiard Avenue address. Although the application has been brought under a Lydiard Avenue address, a Shadywood Road address is the current official designation. Issues for Consideration 1 . Will the proposed multiple residential and commercial use of this property require special limitations or restrictions on commercial use? The residential unit within this zoning district requires one acre. The property is less than one acre although the B-4 zoning district would require only 20,000 s.f. The commercially-used portion of structure is a single story 26 ’ x 24’ addition. Should the conditional use permit specify an approved number of employees for the commercial use? Applicant proposes two full-time staff members and a part-time person. Parking and safety issues alone necessitate some type of control of the commercial use. 2. Do members agree that hardcover information is not necessary with Uiis review? If applicant at some time in the future proposes any additions or paving expansions, hardcover inventory would have to be provided with the permit. 3. The neighborhood appears to be in complete support of the continued residential use. The location of the residential and commercial uses of the strucnire present minimal impact on the immediate adjacent residential neighborhood. Do members have other concerns? Options of Action To either deny or approve James Wilson ’s conditional use application to allow continued residential use of the B-4 zoned property considered a non-conforming use based on some of the findings suggested in the staff memo above, i.e. history, zoning of 1950, pattern of surrounding residential development, layout/design of structure, no proposed expansions of structure..... If the application is to be denied, please refer to the necessary findings set forth in Section 10.09, Subdivision 6 (A) (1-3). Any recommendation of approval must include the following conditions. 1. Conditions set forth by City Engineer in his report dated June 7, 1995 that includes a recommended site plan indicating three designated off-street parkmg stalls.
