The subject site is located at 1804 and 1812 North Clinton Street and currently a parking lot for <br /> Mason Manufacturing. <br /> PROJECT DESCRIPTION <br /> 1. The petitioner proposes to rezone from R-5 Two Family Residence District to M-1 Intense <br /> Commercial- Light Industrial District in order to continue the use of the parking lot for their <br /> employees and to be in compliance with the Zoning Ordinance for permitted uses. <br /> STAFF ANALYSIS <br /> 1. The surrounding zoning includes R-5 Two Family Residence District to the north and west and <br /> M-1 Intense Commercial-Light Industrial District to the south and east. The Decatur Urban Area <br /> Land Use Plan shows this area as Residential-Low Density. The existing use is compatible with <br /> adjacent uses to the south and east. The rezoning for the continued use of a parking lot should not <br /> have an adverse effect of the surrounding area since the site has been used as a parking lot for <br /> over ten years and it has not appeared to have had an adverse effect on the area. <br /> STAFF RECOMMENDATION <br /> 1. Staff recommends approval of the rezoning. <br />
