Background The Subject Property is a veterinary clinic facing County Road E W in the B-2 General Business District that has been in continuous operation since 1984. At the time, a veterinary clinic was not a permitted use for the Subject Property within the B-2 District. However, on April 23, 1984, the City Council approved a Special Use Permit (“Special Use Permit Case No. 84-5”) that gave the Applicants permission to operate a veterinary clinic, which included conditions of approval such as a limit on the business hours and number of employees. When the City adopted its current Zoning Code in 1993, the Subject Property no longer needed a Special Use Permit to operate a clinic in the B-2 District because the a clinic is a permitted in the B-2 District under the current Zoning Ordinance in Section 1320.05. The Applicants request to amend certain conditions of approval citing that it unduly limits their ability to operate their business. Plan Evaluation A full evaluation of the proposal was presented to the Planning Commission on January 8, 2020. The memo to the Planning Commission on this case is provided in Attachment D.
