5. Alex's Landscaping Issue: Without getting into the various issues surrounding Alex's Conditional Use Permit, the situation here has made it apparent that outside sales and storage yards in the B-1 district can be problematic, given the lower buffer standards as compared to those in the I-1 district. Proposed Change: Restrict building supply and storage yards in the Business districts to indoor-only, such as those seen at some of the big-box retailers. Allow outdoor sales and storage yards in the Industrial district. 6. Cultural Center Issue: City staff fielded an inquiry for a cultural center along Main Street. The term Cultural Center is not on our table of uses, but does appear in our code. However the language in the code only allows them in the P-1 district(Public). It seems that this use would be appropriate in a Business district. Proposed Change: Allow Cultural Centers in the Business districts. 7. Assisted Living Issue: City staff fielded an inquiry regarding an Assisted Living facility on Main Street, in the B-1 district. The term Assisted Living does not appear in our code. Similar uses, allowed in the B-1 district as a Conditional Use are "Nursing Homes" and "Specialized Care Facilities". Proposed Change: Add"Assisted Living Facility"to the list of uses allowed in the Business Districts. The following is a summary of the proposed changes. If the Planning and Zoning Commission agreed with these changes, or a clearly modified version of these changes,it would be appropriate for staff to properly notice a public hearing to take input, from the public, on any comprehensive plan amendments, code amendments and rezonings necessary to implement these changes. Summary • Rezone the Commerce Drive Business Park to I-l. • Add a B-2 (Main Street Commercial) o As compared to B-1, B-2 would NOT allow 0 Mini-Storage
