Summary Explanation and Background:
The applicant is requesting a change of zoning classification from BU-1 to BU-2 on the 0.70 acre eastern portion of the 1.38-acre property to resemble the property bordering the site to the north. The western half of the property will remain BU-1 without any modifications. The BU-1 portion will be developed as a personal hobby shop as permitted in that zoning classification. The applicant intends to develop the eastern portion with eight (8) recreational vehicles and eight (8) boat outdoor storage spaces. The site will also have motion sensor lighting and a Type A buffer on the south and west property boundaries. Fencing and landscaping along the right of way frontage will also be provided. The applicant is strategically placing the outdoor storage to the rear of the subject property to improve the aesthetic appearance of the project.
The applicants' proposed use falls under a permitted use with conditions under Section 62-1483. The use specifically is found in Section 62-1833.5(a), which has the condition: Storage yards must be enclosed with a six-foot wall, louvered fence, or chain-link fence.
The subject property is currently undeveloped and located on the east side of North Courtenay Parkway, a state-maintained road, approximately 300 feet north of Norwich Street.
North of the subject property is a 1.36-acre parcel developed with a single commercial building with BU-1 (western half) & BU-2 (eastern half) zoning classification and a CC FLU designation.
South of the subject property is a 1.36-acre parcel developed with a single-family residence with BU-1 zoning classification and a CC FLU designation. East of the subject property are two (2) 2.52-acre parcels, each developed with a single-family residence zoned AU with an NC FLU designation. West of the subject property is N. Courtenay Pkwy, a state-maintained roadway.
The Board may consider if the request is consistent and compatible with the surrounding area.
