Planning Cases <br /> 1. Case#00-45, Semper Development, County Road E & Lexington Avenue N., <br /> Site Plan, Special Use Permit (SUP),Variance, Lot Split <br /> Ms. Chaput explained this is a request for a lot split regarding the Walgreens proposal and the <br /> various related cases. She stated this case was last tabled at the February 26 meeting for <br /> additional information. She noted it came to staff's attention that the minor subdivision <br /> application creating two parcels from the existing Holiday inn site eliminates all landscape area <br /> from the Holiday Inn. She added Holiday Inn would then become a non-conforming use by the <br /> landscape requirement of the zoning code. She stated Council might recommend approval with <br /> conditions and a landscape variance, recommend reasons for denial, grant a request for an <br /> extension of time or the applicant could withdraw the application. She added staff recommends <br /> denial for two reasons: <br /> 1. The proposed minor subdivision of the property located at 1201 County Road E, creating <br /> two parcels from one, leaves the Holiday Inn's remaining parcel with less than 25% <br /> landscape area which is unable to meet the requirements of Section 5 (F) of the Zoning <br /> Ordinance. <br /> 2. Since a minor subdivision of 1201 County E can not create a developable lot for a <br /> proposed Walgreens,the remaining applications for: a variance from Section 6 (D)#1(b), <br /> proximity to drive-in businesses; a Special Use Permit for a drive-in business in a B-2 <br />
