STAFF REPORT
Planning staff recommends approval with the following condition:
1. Wheel stops to be placed in parking spaces. (Transportation)
Robert W. Petton would like to open an automotive services shop at 5290 Eastex
Freeway. Mr. Petton currently owns Z-Tech located at 5550 Eastex, Suite C. The shop
offers vehicle enhancement and protection services, such as paint sealant, rust protection,
window tinting, interior upgrades and accessories. The new shop would employee 5
persons with business hours being Monday - Friday, 8am to 5pm.
The property was previously used as a radiator shop, a grandfathered use. Automotive
services and automotive repair are not the same use category, therefore automotive
services requires a specific use permit in a NC (Neighborhood Commercial) District.
Surrounding properties are commercial and should not be negatively affected by this use.
Please note that final occupancy approval is subject to review and acceptance of
submitted plans and field inspections to verify compliance with applicable codes.
Exhibits are attached.
