and Land Use:
Size:
The request parcels may be considered one (1) zoning lot
for the purpose of calculating parking and setback re-
quirements if the tract is subdivided and sold to differ-
ent entities. If the request property is subdivided and
driveways and parking areas are to be used in common by
the tenants located on the property, cross easement agree-
ments shall be submitted to the Planning Department for
approval. Upon approval, the cross easement agreements
shall be recorded. (p)
(Note: Should any parcel be subdivided or sold without an
approved cross easement agreement, parking and setback
requirements will be calculated individually and separate
from the original request parcels.)
Parking areas shall have at least twenty (20) square feet
of interior landscaping for each space. Each required
landscaped area shall contain a minimum of 100 square feet
and have a minimum dimension of at least ten (10) feet.
With the provision of this landscaping, parking space size
may be reduced to 9.5' x 18' or 171 square feet. A con-
ceptual plan depicting this requirement shall be submitted
to the Planning Department in conjunction with final site
plan review. (P)

DISCUSSION
Amendment to a previously granted Conditional Use Planned Development
(Case 85S066) is requested. A shopping center is planned on the entire
23.3 acre tract.
The applicants are seeking three (3) changes to the approved zoning.
First, the applicants are requesting that the entire acreage be con-
sidered as one (1) zoning lot for the purpose of calculating the number
of parking spaces that must be provided and for the purpose of determin-
ing setbacks for structures.
Secondly, a reduction in the required size of parking spaces from 10 feet
by 20 feet (200 square feet) to 9.5 feet by 18 feet (171 square feet)
with a minimum of 60' from center of double parking aisle to center of
double parking aisle. In addition, the applicants are requesting use
exceptions to permit the following B-3 uses in addition to the use ex-
ceptions previously permitted:
Motor vehicle repair,
Hotel or motel,
Motor vehicle wash.
It should be noted that a motor vehicle accessory store was also request-
ed; however, the use is already permitted in B-2 District and, therefore,
need not be addressed.
The Northern Area Land Use and Transportation Plan designates the request
parcels for general commercial use.
3 87S011/BSJAN7/FEB25P
Approval of the request to allow the various parcels to be as one (1)
zoning lot would be consistent with past Commission and Board action and
could be administered through a cross easement agreement similar to the
one permitted under the conditions of zoning for Chesterfield Meadows
Shopping Center. A cross easement agreement would permit a business
located on one parcel to utilize parking located on an adjacent commer-
cial property when calculating the minimum number of on-site parking
spaces normally required by the Zoning Ordinance. In addition, the
required setbacks for buildings and other structures could be measured
from the outer boundary of the zoning lot rather than from the interior
property lines of individual parcels (Condition 2). With respect to the
exception relative to parking space size, the provision of landscaping in
accordance with that proposed for the Special Corridor Overlay District
would be appropriate in return for the reduced size. This reduction
would be consistent with recent Planning Commission and Board action for
other development in the County (Condition 3). Further, the requested
use exceptions would be compatible with those previously permitted on the
site. (Condition 4) ~
