Kenmore Street and the vacant lot west of and adjacent to Jurisdiction: City of South Bend Public Hearing Date: 10/17/2017 Requested Action: The petitioner is requesting a zone change from LI Light Industrial District to GI General Industrial District and seeking five variances from the development standards Land Uses and Zoning: On site: On site is a manufacturing establishment North: To the north across Nimtz Parkway are 2 vacant lots zoned LI Light Industrial District East: To the east across Kenmore is a vacant lot zoned LI Light Industrial District South: To the south are industrial buildings zoned LI Light Industrial District. West: To the west is a vacant lot and cell tower zoned LI Light Industrial District District Uses and Development Standards: The GI General Industrial District is established to provide for development of manufacturing and processing facilities or facilities which may require substantial amounts of outdoor storage or outdoor operations. Permitted uses in this district tend to generate heavy traffic and require extensive community facilities. Permitted uses in this district may require extensive amounts of outdoor storage or outdoor operations. The permitted uses provided for in this district should be separated from residential districts or low intensity commercial/mixed use districts by less intense industrial districts. Site Plan Description: The 9.14 acres site contains an existing 45,200 square foot building with a 6,000 square foot office. There are 53 existing parking spaces. The site plan shows a two phase expansion totaling 56,000 square feet of additional industrial space. The petition is preserving the mature trees on site,plus adding parking screening and screening of the proposed loading areas. The proposed site plan includes outdoor storage areas with solvent and propellant tanks. Zoning and Land Use History And Trends: This site has been LI Light Industrial District since the adoption of the new zoning maps in 2005. Traffic and Transportation Considerations: Kenmore has two lanes.Nimtz Parkway has four lanes. Utilities: The site is served by municipal water and sewer. Agency Comments: The City Engineer recommends approval subject to review and approval of sidewalks, APC 4 2840-17 Page 1 of 4 Staff Report 10/6/2017 curb cut, lighting, and overall improvements to the site. Development of the site requires City approval of a Drainage Plan and meets the requirement to store all runoff from developed areas on site, along with compliance with the City's Downspout Disconnection Program. The approaches shown at the truck entrance near solvent storage tanks will need to be reviewed by the Engineering Department via the curb cut application process. The Department of Community Investment(DCI) offers a favorable recommendation subject to the suggestions provided below. Properties along Nimtz Parkway feature a high landscape character and above average building design; these comments seek to preserve that character. DCI recommends the following: Tanks, storage areas, and similar features should not be located in front yards; Any new gas house/charging area placed in a front yard should be built in a manner and with materials that complement the existing building's architecture; The lot should be heavily landscaped, even to exceed ordinance standards, especially along the Nimtz frontage. To the degree permitted by existing space and business operations, all parking areas and outdoor tanks and storage areas should be landscaped screened. Any fencing visible from the Nimtz or Kenmore street frontages should be of a decorative style (not chain-link). The Airport authority noted that future expansion will require completion of FAA Form 7460 to ensure the planned height of the facility is not a concern. Additionally, exterior lighting of this facility must also be considered so as to not cause any issues with arriving and departing aircraft. The Building Department had the following comments: Any additions to existing building must meet the Airport Economic Area guidelines for architecture materials and finishes on new buildings or additions including at least 1/3 of building facade to be covered with masonry wainscoting. A request for an alternative covering for an interim period to accommodate an easier tie-in on the West side between Phase I and Phase II or for the finishing of Phase II will require a Design Appeal and Approval. Commitments: The petitioner is not proposing any written commitments. Criteria to be considered in reviewing rezoning requests, per IC 36-7-4-603: 1. Comprehensive Plan: Policy Plan: The petition is consistent with City Plan, South Bend Comprehensive Plan,November, 2006), Objective ED2: Retain existing businesses and recruit new ones. Land Use Plan: The future land use map identifies this area as light industrial. Plan Implementation/Other Plans: There are no other plans in effect for this area. 2. Current Conditions and Character: The properties along Nimtz Parkway and Kenmore have developed as light industrial uses. APC# 2840-17 Page 2 of 4 Staff Report 10/6/2017 3. Most Desirable Use: The most desirable use for this site is industrial. 4. Conservation of Property Values: The site is located in an established industrial area. The proposed site is compatible in scale and use, and should not adversely affect surrounding property values. 5. Responsible Development And Growth: It is responsible development and growth to allow the development of industrial uses along major transportation routes. Combined Public Hearing This is a combined public hearing procedure,which includes a rezoning and 5 variances from the development standards. The Commission will forward the rezoning to the Council with or without a recommendation and either approve or deny the variances. The petitioner is seeking the following variance(s): 1) from the required landscaping of required perimeter yards to none 2) from the required foundation landscaping to no foundation landscaping on the north elevation and to the existing on the east 3)from the required interior off-street area landscaping to none 4) from the required minimum loading space dimensions and maneuvering aisle widths; 5)to allow loading between the front lot line and front fagade of the building State statutes and the Zoning Ordinance require that certain standards must be met before a variance can be approved. The standards and their justifications are as follows: (1) The approval will not be injurious to the public health,safety,morals and general welfare of the community; The proposed development variances should not have an impact on the public health, safety, and general welfare of the community. (2)The use and value of the area adjacent to the property included in the variance will not be affected in a substantially adverse manner; Because the property is an established industrial use there will be minimal changes to the site. Property values should not be adversely impacted. (3) The strict application of the terms of this Chapter would result in practical difficulties in the use of the property Due to the fact that the site is an existing building located on a corner lot with two front yards, strict application of the development standards for loading areas would create practical difficulties in the development of the site. The landscaping meets the intent of the ordinance shown on the plan. Strict application would require the removal of mature landscaping. Staff Comments: Because of the nature of the use,the staff recommends the solvent storage area either be APC 4 2840-17 Page 3 of 4 Staff Report 10/6/2017 located behind the front building line or screened with Type B landscaping on the east and west. Recommendation: Based on information available prior to the public hearing, the staff recommends the rezoning petition be sent to the Common Council with a favorable recommendation. The staff recommends approval of the landscaping variances (variances 1-3) for the current building only. Future development should meet the landscaping regulations in place at the time of development. The staff recommends approval of the variances for the loading areas (variances 4-5). Analysis: Rezoning the property to GI General Industrial will allow for the redevelopment of an industrial site in a manner consistent with the surrounding area. i II �I I I I III I APC 4 2840-17 Page 4 of 4 ORDINANCE NO.
