The lease space of 2,353± square feet requires a total of 12 parking spaces. The subject property does not have adequate parking to serve the existing uses and the proposed tenant. However, when the subject property and the adjacent lot, commonly known as 600 E. Main Street, are reviewed together, there are adequate spaces for current tenants on both lots and the proposed Fitness and Health Center use. A parking agreement has been executed which allows the applicant to utilize parking spaces on this adjacent lot.
There are no proposed changes to the exterior of the building.
The Specific Use Permit request has been reviewed by staff and meets the standards of the ALDC.
