Current Zoning: “CS” Community Service District. SPIN Neighborhood #2. DETAILS: The project is generally located on the west side of Lonesome Dove Ave. approximately 400’ north of Emerald Circle. The west and south property lines abut the Emerald Estates subdivision and the north property line abuts the Lonesome Dove Cemetery. The applicant is requesting approval of a Site Plan to allow an approximately 13,893 square foot worship building with 376 seats to be added on the property. The Site Data Summary Chart is below. Site Data Summary Existing Zoning “CS” Community Service Land Use Designation Public/Semi-Public Gross/Net Acreage 6.708 ac. (292,183 s.f.) Proposed Building Floor Area (Gross) 13,893 Total Building Floor Area (Gross) 30,895 Building Height/Number of Stories 32’-2” and 1 story Open Space % 55.6% Impervious Coverage % 44.4% Total Parking Required (1 per 3 seats) 126 Total Parking Spaces Provided 156 VARIANCES REQUESTED: 1) Driveway Ord. No. 634, as amended, Section 5.2.d requires a minimum stacking depth of 75’. A variance is requested to allow a stacking depth of approximately 40’ for all three driveways. A variance was approved with the previous site plan (ZA99-009) to allow a stacking depth of ±40’ on all three drives. Reapproval of the variance is required since the existing use of the driveway is projected to increase in actual or proposed daily design hour volume by 20% or more. Case No. ZA21-0093 2) Driveway Ord. No. 634, as amended, Section 5.1 requires a minimum throat width of 24’. A variance is requested to allow the existing throat width of 17’4” for the center driveway to remain. A variance to allow the 17’4” throat width was approved with the previous site plan in 1999. Reapproval of the variance is required since the existing use of the driveway is projected to increase in actual or proposed daily design hour volume by 20% or more. 3) Zoning Ord. No. 480, as amended, Section 33.19 requires a 5’ sidewalk to be constructed along Lonesome Dove Ave. at the time of construction. A variance is requested to allow no sidewalk to be constructed along Lonesome Dove Ave. 4) Zoning Ordinance No. 480, Section 39.6.a requires an 8’ solid fence to be constructed where the non-residential use abuts the residentially zoned lots to the west and south. A variance is requested to allow the existing fences and vegetation to remain. The Zoning Board of Adjustment approved a variance (ZBA-313) to the fence requirement in 1999. Reapproval of the variance is required since the previously approved variance was based on the plot plan presented at the time. The Zoning Ordinance was amended in 2000 to give City Council the authority to grant a variance to the screening requirements for non- residential uses where they abut residentially zoned lots or tracts or lots having an occupied residential dwelling.
