November 10, 2021 Centerville City Council Page 5 of 12 RE: Shingle Creek Capital, LLC Ï Rezoning and Conditional Use Permit Main Street Median Site access is only to Main Street via the two existing curb cuts. There is a raised median in Main Street which allows only right-in/right-out movements to the site, also posing a challenge for typical retail users that rely on full, quick, easy access. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT A CUP would be considered by the City Council only if the rezoning is approved. Otherwise, the requested use with outside storage is not allowed in the current B-2 zoning district. If the Council votes to deny the rezoning, the CUP is a moot point, since the identified business cannot make use of the site without outside storage. CUP Criteria The Centerville zoning code has criteria for reviewing a CUP in Section 156.320(B)(2). The applicants respond to these criteria in their narrative Ï that the use is necessary, desirable, and will contribute to the public welfare; that the use will not have adverse impacts on adjacent property; and that the proposed use will permit development and use of neighboring property. Outside Storage The Site Plan shows three separate staging areas on the outside storage portion of the site and details the floor area of each part of the building use: Main Floor Showroom: 1,801 sq ft Office 2,140 sq ft Warehouse: 37,179 sq ft Total: 41,120 sq ft The plan notes the square footage of the staging areas as 61,654 sq ft, about 1.5 times the area of the building. which is the standard in the B-1 district for the size of outside storage areas relative to the building. The identified storage area excludes space in the middle of the site for loading and circulation, i.e., truck movements in and out of the site. Parking The site plan proposes 21 customer parking spaces, including 2 handicapped spaces as required by ADA, for the retail showroom of about 2,000 sq ft, or 10.5 spaces per 1,000 sq ft, which is more than adequate. Site Access Site access will from the two existing driveways off Main Street, the west drive for cars, the east drive for trucks accessing the storage yard. Because of the raised median in Main Street, only right-in/right-out access is possible. Cars coming from the east on Main Street can make a U-turn
