Richardson, Planning Manager SUBJECT: Consider a request for a zone change from RS (Residential Single Family Dwelling) District to LI (Light Industrial) District FILE: 1980-Z STAFF REPORT The Planning Manager recommends approval. A-Lisotta Mini Stor-All, DD#6 and Captain=s Cars, Inc. have applied for a zone change from RS (Residential Single Family Dwelling) District to LI (Light Industrial) District. The property is located at 6045 and 6055 College. A building on the west side of A-Lisotta=s Mini Stor-All was severely damaged during Hurricane Ike. This building is located on property that is currently zoned RS. The Zoning Ordinance states that a legal non-conforming use that is located within a building that is 60% or more destroyed by an act of God can no longer occupy that building. The business would like to reconstruct the building. Because of the RS zoning along the west and north sides, the new building would have to be set back 25' along those property lines, causing the building to be greatly reduced in size. Therefore, A-Lisotta=s Mini Stor-All asked DD#6 and Kirk Giles, adjacent property owners, to participate in the zone change, which they did. The zone change will allow A-Lisotta=s Mini Stor-All to reconstruct the building to its original dimensions. Exhibits are attached. PUBLIC NOTIFICATION Notices mailed to property owners 9 .
