The subject property is located at the northeastern corner of the intersection of Greenville Avenue and Hightrail Drive and is commonly known as 821 S. Greenville Avenue.

 

The properties to the north and south are zoned Planned Development PD No. 4 (PD-4) with a base zoning of Shopping Center (SC). The properties to the east are zoned Single-Family Residential (R-5).  The properties to the west (across Greenville Avenue) are zoned Light Industrial.

 

The subject property is zoned PD-4 with a base zoning of SC. The applicant is requesting to amend the development regulations to allow for a "day care facility" use by right in addition to the uses already permitted by the existing Planned Development. The site is already developed and has an existing 18,936± square foot building which currently houses Christ the Servant Lutheran Church. 

 

The applicant is wanting to lease 2,750± square feet of the existing building for a preschool which is classified as day care facility use.

 

There are no proposed changes to the exterior of the building.

 

This request has been reviewed by the Technical Review Committee. The request is in general conformance with the future land use map in the adopted Comprehensive Plan and is compatible with the surrounding uses.
