COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
The 1987 Comprehensive Plan shows the property as
suitable for highway commercial use. The proposed 1996
Comprehensive Plan shows the property as suitable for
light industrial/showroom use.
DISCUSSION:
In January of this year the Planning and Zoning Commission reviewed and
approved a preliminary and final plat for a Haverty's facility on Belt Line
Road at Lakeshore Drive. Unable to complete land acquisition
negotiations to its satisfaction, Haverty's has selected an alternative site
on Gateway Boulevard. While the site configuration is necessarily
somewhat different, the facilities proposed are essentially the same as
those review previously. The applicant is in process of requesting a
special exception from the Board of Adjustment to reduce the required
parking spaces to a number justifiable by the nature of its operation.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff recommends approval of the replat, subject to engineering comments
and conditioned upon modification of the site plan in the event the Board
of Adjustment requires a greater number of parking spaces than those
shown.
1) Recommend approval of the replat
2) Recommend disapproval of the replat
3) Recommend modification of the replat
