Title

Authorization to allow Outdoor Accessory Display and Storage of Up to 25% of Indoor Space. (B)

 

Petition DB-21-118 SPA:   Mr. Stuart Cullen, agent for Fiber Swimming Pools Dist., Requesting authorization to allow outdoor accessary storage and Display up to 25% of the existing indoor storage area.  Zoned: BA (Business Automotive) Located at 4322 NW 13th. Street.

 

Explanation

 

The applicant operates a swimming pool retail facility at the above location.  That use is allowed in the BA zoning district.  However, that district does not allow outdoor storage and display as a primary use by right. The applicant was recently cited by Code Enforcement for having swimming pools stored and displayed alongside the right-of-way in front of the subject property.  The code provides an opportunity for the Development Review Board (DRB) to consider a request to allow up to up to 25% of the existing indoor storage area to be used as outdoor accessory storage and display, subject to compatibility and screening standards. 

 

The applicant is requesting that the DRB consider a request to have limited outdoor storage, consistent with the requirements of the Land Development Code.

 

 

Fiscal Note

None.

 

Recommendation

Staff recommends approval of Petition DB-21-118 SPA with conditions.
