ADMINISTRATIVE COMMENTS:
The subject site is a 4.1-acre lot zoned Light Industrial (LI) within the Thompson Addition. The developer, Mike Wherley, is proposing to construct two office buildings with one building being used for L&L Auto and the other as office/warehouse. The total building areas will be approximately 37,000 sf. The developer is proposing to construct one driveway with a deceleration lane along State Highway 121 Business. Originally the proposed driveway aligned with the median opening. However, a left turn lane would have been required at the opening. The developer has requested to shift the driveway further east so the driveway no longer aligns with the median opening. The applicant is asking for the following variance: a) to allow driveway spacing between adjacent lots to be less than 230 feet apart. An SUP was approved by City Council on November 6, 2017.
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council approve the variance as set forth in the caption above.
