11 - Zoning Change from Single-Family Dwelling to Neighborhood Service - Mayer Addition, Block 3, Lot 27, 3150 Bonham Street & 10 N.W. 32nd StreetItem No. 11
TO: Mayor & Council
FROM: John Godwin, City Manager
SUBJECT: ZONING CHANGE, 3150 BONHAM STREET
DATE: July 3, 2019
BACKGROUND: James O'Bryan has applied for a change in zoning on a 0.462 acre lot on
Bonham and 10b NW Streets. The purpose of the request is to change the zoning from S172
Residential to Neighborhood Service (NS) for the purpose of continuing to operate a beauty shop
that has operated on this lot for a number of years, while retaining the current residential use.
The property is located on a relatively well -travelled state highway; it has no drainage issues.
This request should not increase traffic or parking demands. The beauty shop is a legal
conforming use, with a certificate of occupancy.
STATUS OF ISSUE: A majority of the area is single family and is so zoned. A few exceptions
include two other NS lots, a long-standing tax service office on a 2F lot, MF -1 next door, the
VFW hall (a former church) immediately behind, and a second 2F lot. The future land use plan
calls for a wide strip of both sides of Bonham to convert, over time, to retail -type uses, which
can include neighborhood services, offices, retail, parking, etc. This request is therefore
consistent with the city's long-term plan. Although in the short-term it will be somewhat
inconsistent with much of what is currently on the ground, this is typical of transition zoning.
The planning and zoning commission met on July 1, and following a public hearing at which
interested persons spoke for and against, the commission recommended approval of the zoning
request by a vote of 7-0. A protest petition was presented and staff verified the 20% threshold
was surpassed; therefore, council approval requires a super majority, or six votes, regardless of
the number of members present.
BUDGET: NA
RECOMMENDATION: Approve a zoning change from SF2 Residential to Neighborhood
Services. However, should there be six or fewer members present, hold the public hearing open
to a date certain.
