Commercial school, including trade school to allow the continuation of an
existing martial arts academy at this location on property located at 2820

REQUEST
DETAILS: The applicant is requesting approval of a Specific Use Permit for a
Commercial school, including trade school to allow the continuation of an
existing martial arts academy located at 2820 Market Loop, Suite 100 in
Commerce Business Park. The applicant had previously been approved for a
specific use permit for the martial arts academy under Planning Case ZA16 -
019. The applicant has requested that the proposed specific use permit would
be tied to the tenant’s lease of 2 years and any additional extensions of the
lease. The tenant’s new lease will begin on May 1, 2018.
The tenant space is approximately 2,400 square feet of useable space / 2,600
square feet of rentable space. The parking spaces at this site are shared by
two approximately 5,900 square foot buildings with multiple tenants. There
have not been any issues with the parking associated with this business.
The applicant has modified the class size under this specific use permit from
5-10 students per class to 2-15 students per class. Based on 15 students at
peak time the school would require 5 spaces . There is a 30 minute overlap for
classes two nights a week in the evening at 8:00 pm (not during regular
business hours). Based on the current tenant mix, the site has enough
available parking for the 45 students at the peak time of day.
45.19 IN CONSIDERING WHETHER TO GRANT A SPECIFIC USE
PERMIT FOR COMMERCIAL SCHOOL, INCLUDING TRADE SCHOOL,
THE CITY COUNCIL SHALL CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING:
1) Safe access for the ingress and egress of students, pedestrian,
parking and vehicular traffic, including the identification of student
drop-off areas.
2) Adequate illumination will be provided at night to protect the safety
of those persons entering and exiting the site.
