FILE: PZ2021-75 STAFF REPORT Grant Keller of Vaquero Ventures is requesting a rezoning and Specific Use Permit to allow a coffee shop at3154 Shannon Avenue. The proposed coffee shop would be located just south of the existing Sonic, just south of Washington on Martin Luther King Parkway. The greatest obstacle for this request will be an existing sewer line, located in the alleyway across the middle of the property. A request has been submitted to abandon the alleyway and reroute the sewer line. City Engineering and Water Utilities are in discussion with the applicant regarding this sewer line. Although the majority of the property is currently zoned RS (Residential Single -Family Dwelling), it is located adjacent to GC -MD (General Commercial — Multiple -Family Dwelling) zoning, commercial uses, and partially fronts on Martin Luther King Parkway, a major arterial. GC-MD-2 (General Commercial — Multiple -Family Dwelling -- 2) zoning provides a buffer between the remaining residential zoning to the south and the commercial properties to the north as a Specific Use is required and will need approval by City Council. Landscaping will be required per City of Beaumont Ordinance. Specifically, an eight (8) foot tall wood or masonry fence with a ten (10) foot wide landscaped buffer would be required along the south property line. A six (6) foot wide landscaped strip containing shrubs would need to be installed along Martin Luther King Parkway, part of Shannon Avenue and to either side of the driveway on Highland Avenue to buffer parking areas from adjacent streets and two (2) landscaped islands would be required in the proposed parking areas. In addition, a five (5) foot sidewalk will need to be installed for the width of the property along all three (3) streets. Staff recorninends approval of the request with the following conditions: 1. Approval is subject to an agreement between the applicant, City Engineering and Water Utilities regarding the alleyway/sewer line. 2. Landscaping to be installed as per City Ordinance. 3. Sidewalks be installed and maintained along all three (3) street frontages.
