DISCUSSION
The applicant is requesting renewal of temporary Manufactured Home Permit 98SR0226 to park
a temporary manufactured home in a General Business (C-5) District. The first permit on the
subject property was issued in 1974.
The temporary manufactured home is located on property belonging to Abilene Motor Express.
Section 19-178 of the Zoning Ordinance allows an employee of 9(e business to occupy a
manufactured home in a General Business (C-5) District. The applic~ has indicated that an
employee of Abilene Motor Express will occupy the manufactured home.

Staff notes when the manufactured home permit was renewed in 1998 (Case 98SR0226), the
property was zoned Residential (R-7) and was owned by Dorothy E. Cranor. On July 23, 2003,
the present owners, Abilene Motor Express, rezoned the subject property from Residential (R-7)
to General Business (C-5).
The property is served by public water and sewer.
This request, which is for seven (7) years, appears to be in character with the area at the present
time. The temporary manufactured home is located in an area designated by the Jefferson Davis
Corridor Plan for community commercial and light industrial use. Adjacent properties are
zoned General Business (C-5) and Light Industrial (I-I).
If this were a new request, staff would recommend denial; however, since a temporary
manufactured home has been parked on the subject property since 1974, staff would recommend
approval subject to the aforementioned conditions.
Because of the potential for future development in this area, staff believes that the Board should
advise the applicant to look upon this request as a temporary dwelling. If approved, it mayor
may not necessarily be renewed.
Staff recommends approval of this request for seven (7) years, subject to Conditions 1 through 4,
as noted herein.
