Commercial Holding to B, Business.
Section 2. The City Council has made the following findings of fact with regards to the
proposed rezoning:
1. The Property is guided for Commercial development within the Comprehensive Plan.
The Commercial land use is intended for highway oriented businesses including
commercial, office and retail uses.
2. The Property is proposed to be guided for Business development within the draft
Comprehensive Plan update which is currently under review. The Business land use
is intended for corporate campus uses including offices, office parks, warehousing,
and other such uses.
3. The purpose of the Business zoning district is to provide for a mix of office,
commercial, and larger scale retail and service uses. These uses are consistent with
the uses described within the definition of the Commercial land use within the
Comprehensive Plan.
4. The purpose of the Business zoning district is to apply to property which is proximate
to arterial roadways. This is consistent with the definition of the Commercial land
use, which states that the use will be concentrated along the Highway 55 corridor and
to include highway oriented businesses.
5. The Property is adjacent to Highway 55, an arterial roadway.
6. The Business zoning district allows service businesses near future urban residential
densities and along the TH 55 corridor, consistent with the Future Land Use Plan
Principles of the Comprehensive Plan.

broader metropolitan market with frontage on a regional highway, consistent with the
objectives of the Commercial and Business land uses in the Comprehensive Plan.

City residents, consistent with the objectives of the Commercial and Business land
uses.

consistent with the objectives of the Commercial and Business land uses in the

of the TH 55 corridor, consistent with the objectives of the Commercial and Business
land uses in the Comprehensive Plan.

Comprehensive Plan. The standards and uses permitted within the Business zoning
district are consistent with these objectives and do not conflict with the
Comprehensive Plan.

objectives within the pending draft Comprehensive Plan designation as Business and
is not in conflict with either the existing Comprehensive Plan or the pending update to
the Plan.

the zoning classification of the Property from RCH, Rural Commercial Holding to B, Business.
