REQUEST: Amendment to Conditional Use Planned Developments (Cases 795065 and
89SN0174) to permit all Light Industrial (1-1) uses on property zoned
Office Business (0), delete a buffer requirement, and permit exception
to side yard setbacks in an Office Business (0) District.
Specif ically , that portion of the property lying wi thin Southport
Industrial Park (Case 79S065) has been developed for a light
industrial use. The applicant wishes to expand this use to adjacent~
vacant property to the south zoned Office Business (0) with
Conditional Use Planned Development to permit a mix of office,
commercial and light industr ial uses (Case 89SNO 174) . Amendmen t to
Case 79S065 is requested, to delete a twenty (20) foot buffer
requirement along the south boundary of lots within Southport to
accommodate the proposed expans ion. Amendment to Case 89SNO 174 is
requested, to permit additional light industrial uses within the
adj acent, Off ice Bus_~ness (0) tract and to permi t a ten ( 10) foot
exception to the required twenty (20) foot side yard setback in Office
Business (0) Districts.
PROPOSED LAND USE:
Expansion of an existing sheet metal products. fabricating facility
(Super Radiator Coils) is planned. However, with the approval of this
request, the property CQuld be redeveloped for any Light Industrial
(1-1) use.
PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
RECOMMEND APPROVAL SUBJECT TO THE CONDITIONS ON PAGES 2 AND 3.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Recommend approval for the following reasons:
A. Although the proposed light industrial land uses for the Office
Business (0) portion of the request property does not conform to the
Northern Area Land Use and Transportation Plan, which designates this
property for low density residential use, the property is currently
zoned to permit a mix of office, light commercial and light industrial
uses subject to conditions that address land use transition and
compatibility issues a Approval of additional light industrial uses on
the Office Business (0) tract, if properly conditioned, would be no
more intense than uses currently permitted.
B.. Deletion of the required twenty (20) foot buffer along the southern
boundary'of the Light Industrial (M-l) portion of the request property
would be appropriate to permit the proposed industrial expansion,
since a fifty (50) foot buffer is currently required along the
southern boundary of the Office Business (0) tracta Specifically,
this fifty (50) foot buffer would remain in effect with the approval
of this request and ensure land use transition and compatibility with
less intense uses on adjacent property to the south.
c. The requested ten (10) foot exception to the required twenty (20) foot
side yard setback for buildings in the Office Business (0) tract would
facilitate the expansion. of the existing building, located on the
Light Industrial (M-l) tract, and should have no adverse impact upon
future development on adjacent property.

Property along Southlake Boulevard has been developed for Southport
Industrial Park. Properties to the south, southeast and southwest are
zoned .Office Business (0)- and Agricultural (A), and are occupied by office
development, si~gle family residences. or remain vacant.
Zoning History;
On May 23, 1979, the Board of Supervisors, upon a favorable recommendation
by the Planning Commission approved rezoning and Conditional Use Planned
Development on the Light Industrial (M-l) portion of the request property
and property to the north, east and west (Case 795065, Southport
Corporation). Subsequently, Southport Industrial Park was developed.
Condi tion 9 of Case 795065 requi red a twenty ( 20) foot buffer along the
southern boundary of Southport Industrial Park.
On January 10 t 1990, the Board of Supervisors approved rezoning with
Conditional Use Planned Development on the Office Business (0) portion of
the request property ( Case 89SNO 17 4) , subj ect to a number of condi tions
which address loading areas, setbacks. buffers, drainage and uses
permitted. The condi~ions were designed to ensure land use transition and
compatibility between development on the property that was the subject of
Case S9SN0174 and adjacent, agriculturally zoned property to the south.
As noted herein, the applicant seeks amendment to both Conditional Use
Planned Developments, to permit addi tional light industrial uses on the
Office Business (0) tract. Except as noted herein, the conditions of

e
.
zoning approval for Cases 795065 and 89SN0174 would remain in effect with
the approval of this request.
Site Design.~
The proposed expansion would consist of a one (1) story addition to an
existing industrial use and an employee parking lot. Access would be
provided, via an existing driveway and parking area, to Southlake
Boulevard. It should be noted that Condition 9 of Case 89SN0174 requires
the approval of site and architectural plans by the Planning Commission.
As noted herein, this condition would remain in effect with the approval of
this request.
Architectural Treatment:
Condition 3 of Case 89SN0174 requires that new construction conform to
Emerging Growth standards relative to architectural treatment.. At the time
of site plan review for the proposed expansion, staff will make specific
recommendations relative to treatment of building facades and screening of
mechanical. equipment.
Buffers & Screening~
Condition 12 of Case 89SN0174 requires a minimum fifty (50) foot buffer
along the southern property boundary of the Office Business (0) portion of
this request. This buffer must be landscaped. in accordance with Zoning
Ordinance requirements for buffers. In particular, existing trees within
the buffer, having a caliper of eight ( 8) inches or greater, must be
retained and can be credited towards required landscaping. With the
approval of this request, the required twenty (20) foot buffer between the
M-l and 0 tracts would be deleted. (Condition 2)
Conclusions:
Although the proposed light industrial land uses for the Office Business
(0) portion of the request property does not conform to the Northern Area
. .
Land Use and Transportation Plan~ which designates this property for low
density residential use, the property is currently zoned to permit a mix of
office, light commercial and light industrial uses subject to conditions
tha t address land use trans i tion and campa ti hili ty issues. Approval of
additional light industrial uses on the Office Business (0) tract, if
properly conditioned, would be no more intense than uses currently
permitted. (Condition 1)
Deletion of the required twenty (20) foot buffer along the southern
boundary of the Light Indus trial (M -1) portion of the request property
would be appropriate to permit the proposed industrial expansion, since a
fifty (50) foot buffer is currently required along the southern boundary of
the Office Business (0) tract (Condition 2). Specifically, this fifty (50)
foot buffer would remain in effect with the approval of this request and
would ensure land use transition and compatibility with less intense uses
on adjacent property to the south.

yard setback for buildings within the Office Business (0) tract is designed

impact upon future development on adjacent office zoned property.
