Executive Summary
The subject property is located on an undeveloped corner of commercial property between West Avenue and West North Loop Road. Adjacent to the property on the north and east are residential zoned properties utilized as commercial uses - a restaurant to the north and mechanical A/C and heating repair shop to the east.
The applicant will be constructing a 1-story commercial building on the property that was recently approved for a "C-2" zoning district, downzoned from "C-3" and "I-1." Partial right-of-way acquisition was recently taken from the property, leaving the developable space of the property limited. Additionally, the configuration of surrounding properties further restricts maximum use of the property.
