TO: Planning Commission and City Council
FROM: Stephen C. Richardson, Planning Manager
SUBJECT: Consider a request for a zone change from LI (Light Industrial)
District to GC-MD (General Commercial-Multiple Family
Dwelling) District or more restrictive district.
FILE: 1854-Z
STAFF REPORT
The Planning Manager recommends approval of this request.
Paradise Baptist Church is going to build a new church at Fannett
Road and Cardinal Drive. The church=s property zoning is split
between GC-MD and LI. A church is permitted in a GC-MD District
by right. LI zoning requires a specific use permit.
At the suggestion of the Planning Manager, the church is requesting
that the subject property be rezoned to GC-MD so that it may
proceed with its development plans without a specific use permit.
Exhibits are attached.
