OPTIONS For each of the two actions and recommendations above the Planning & Zoning Commission can: 1) Move to recommend approval and adopt Findings in support of the motion; 2) Move to recommend denial and adopt Findings in support of the motion; or 3) Move to continue the items) for further discussion or to gather additional information. FINDINGS OF FACT If the Planning and Zoning Commission recommends approval of the actions above, the following Findings of Fact could be cited in support of those decisions. 1) The City wants to retain a community commercial character on its Main Street, reducing the development of large, unsightly or industrial type uses. Creating a new zoning district, B-2, specifically for this Main Street commercial district is reasonable and appropriate. 2) With the creation of a new B-2 Main Street Commercial district it is necessary to have somewhat different standards and uses for the new district compared to the existing B-1 Commercial district. Amending the code to clearly distinguish which standards apply in which district is reasonable and appropriate, as is done through many of the proposed changes to the text of the Zoning Code. 3) Automobile and motorized equipment service, as opposed to strictly sales, involves potentially unsightly display of vehicles, equipment to be repaired, and service bays, which is undesirable along Main Street, and therefore separating sales and service in different uses, is reasonable and appropriate. 4) Similarly, it is reasonable and appropriate to allow some service of automobiles and motorized equipment as an accessory or subordinate use to a gas station and define it as such in the Zoning Code. 5) Building supply sales within an enclosed building is a use that can be appropriate for the high visibility environment of Main Street, but a storage yard associated with such a use is not. Therefore, separating storage yards from this use is reasonable and appropriate. I 1g ri v'1lI t i r r ind 11
