The Plan Commission considered rezoning of this property from R-2 to B-1 at the March 1 <br /> meeting. At that time, there were some concerns from a neighboring property owner as well <br /> as from City Staff. It was suggested by the Commission that if the petitioners consider O-1 <br /> rezoning instead of the more intense B-2 zoning. The petitioners agreed to amend their <br /> petition to O-1. <br /> 2. If said property were to be rezoned to O-1 the following ordinance requirements would have to <br /> be met: <br /> a. A site break fence would need to be provided along the south and west ends of the <br /> property, not less then four(4) feet nor more then six (6) feet. <br /> b. Parking would not be allowed in the front yard along either street (E. Pershing and 25th <br /> Street), since the property is a corner lot. Zoning regulations require that two 25 foot side <br /> yard setbacks be provided on the north and east sides of the property, therefore placing any <br /> and all parking in the back of the property. <br /> c. There would have to be a minimum of 4 parking stalls including one handicapped space. <br />
