TO: Mayor, Mayor Pro Tem and City Council
Grayson Path, City Manager
FROM: Andrew Mack, AICP Director Planning & Community Development
SUBJECT: Public hearing to consider and take action regarding the petition of Donald
Wilson on behalf of Sunrise Ministries Intl Church for a Specific Use Permit
(SUP) for a Self-Storage/Mini-Warehouse in the City of Paris, Block 249, Lot
35-A, located at 3055 Clarksville Street- LCAD 17987.
DATE: May 23, 2022
BACKGROUND
On 5/2/22 the P&Z approved tabling this item and continuing the hearing to their June 6th meeting.
The reason for this is that there was insufficient information provided with the application and the
applicant was unable to attend the meeting to clarify the plans for the project. Staff has been
working with the applicant since this time and additional plans are being prepared to return this
item to the P&Z.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff is generally in support of the request, but recommends tabling and a continuation of the Public
Hearing to the June 6, 2022 regular meeting of the SUP application in order for a better plan to be
prepared for the building remodeling and upgrading of the existing parking lot improvements. It
is recommended that the Council continue the hearing on this item to its meeting on June 27,
2022 so that the item does not have to be republished in the paper and new notices mailed out.
ANALYSIS
The applicant requested in connection with the rezoning change from NS to C, an SUP to permit
the remodeling of a closed nursing home into a storage rental facility. The SUP is a requirement
for the commercial storage facility remodeling permit to be approved. The attached plan for the
project shows no detail as to these plans. It only represents a line drawing depiction of the existing
site improvements for the property. There have been no plans submitted nor discussions with the
Building Official with respect to building code requirements for this remodel. The current building
contains just under 40,000 s.f. of floor area. The parking lot is in substantial deteriorated condition
with an undetermined amount of parking spaces. Two driveway access points exist to the site from
Clarksville and water and sewer services are available to the property.

Section 12-100 of the Zoning Ordinance requires that "The City Council of the City of Paris, Texas,
after public hearing and proper notice to all parties affected and after recommendations by the
Planning and Zoning Commission may authorize the issuance of specific use permits for the
following types of uses in the following districts:
(50) Self-storage/mini-warehouses must have a specific use permit (S) to locate in a Commercial (C)
zoning district in the City of Paris, Texas.
Section 12-101 further requires that: "The city staff shall review and recommend said Special
Use Permit request and the Planning and Zoning Commission in considering and determining
its recommendation and the City Council on any request for a Specific Use Permit shall require
from the applicant Site plans and supportive plans, information, operating data and expert
evaluation concerning the location, function and characteristics of any building or use
proposed. The City Council may, in the interest of the public welfare and to assure compliance
with this ordinance, establish conditions of operation, location, arrangement and construction
of any use for which a permit is authorized In authorizing the location of any of the uses listed
as Specific Use Permits, the City Council may impose such development standards and
safeguards as the conditions and location indicate important to the welfare and protection of
adjacent property from excessive noise, vibration, dust, dirt, smoke, fumes, gas, odor, explosion,
glare, offensive view or other undesirable or hazardous condition. "
The applicant in this request has failed to provide any supportive plans, information, operating
data and expert evaluation concerning the location, function and characteristics of the proposed
use remodeling of the facility for this use. Additional information should be sought from the
applicant during the public hearing. It would be appropriate for the applicant to work further with
Staff to better develop the proposal whereby the request could be brought back before the P&Z for
further consideration and the imposition of appropriate conditions should request be approved for
recommendation to the City Council.
INPUTS
One input was received to date in support of the project from Vicki Eisele residing in a residence
to the north of the property located at 3084 Pride Circle.
