<br /> *NB regulations require buffer yards of 30 feet where development lS proposed adjacent to residential

<br /> **The dedication of the pedestrian way at the west side of the property provides legal status for the
<br /> City trail in this location (the existing trail is proposed to be straightened out and relocated slightly to
<br /> the west), While having this pedestrian way dedicated is a desirable feature, it essentially shrinks the
<br /> setback for the building housing units 1-3 from 30 feet to 10 feet.
<br /> Use
<br /> The use of the property is proposed as office condominiums. Offiee is a permitted use in the
<br /> Neighborhood Business Zoning District. Other permitted uses include: clinics not to exceed
<br /> 3,000 gross square feet; financial institutions and services not to exceed 5,000 square feet
<br /> (and only those that do not have a drive-thru facility nor an outdoor or detached automated
<br /> kiosk); Wld certain types of retail sales and services, not to exceed 3,000 square feet, and
<br /> including only the following: antiques, art and school supplies, bakeries, bicycles (not
<br /> motorized), books, stationery, candy, camera and photographic supplies, carpets and rugs,
<br /> china and glassware, clothing and costume rental, convenience store, custom dressmaking,
<br /> drugs, dry goods, florist, garden supplies (year-round operation only), gifts, grocery,
<br /> hardware, hats, hobby shops, household appliance repair, interior decorating (no retail .
<br /> furniture sales), jewelry, locksmith shops, musical instruments, paint and wallpaper, shoes,
<br /> sporting goods, tobacco, toys, and wearing apparel, and similar type uses.
<br /> Special uses include restaurants not to exceed 3,000 gross square feet (exterior seating will
<br /> be considered based on its impact to adjacent residential uses outside of the neighborhood
<br /> business district) and dwelling units as part of a mixed use development including non-
<br /> residential structures. Automobile related businesses, liquor stores, and restaurants,
<br /> exceeding 40 percent in gross liquor receipts of the total food and liquor reeeipts, would are
<br /> prohibited in the Neighborhood Business District. Consideration for special uses would
<br /> require that the applicant return to the Planning Commission and City CounciJ for review of a
<br /> special use permit/amendment to the PUD. This process would involve a similar public
<br /> hearing process to the one used for this planning case. Consideration for any prohibited uses
<br /> could only be considered through a Zoning Ordinance Text Amendment, which again would
<br /> require a similar public hearing process,
<br /> While currently the use of the site has only been proposed as "office condominiums", it is
<br /> important that the Planning Commission specify their expectations for current and future use
<br /> of the site Ihrough conditions in the Planned Unit Development document. rffor example the
<br /> Planning Commission did not want a relail use, which is otherwise permitted in the NB
<br /> district, a condition should be added to the PUD document. Another way to address this
