RE: Approve Zone Change from Suburban Mixed Use District (SMU) to Suburban
Mixed Use District with a Planned Development Overlay (SMU-PD) at 237 North
Washburn Street (Plan Commission Recommends Approval)
BACKGROUND
The subject area included in the zone change request consists of a 231,688 square foot(5.32 acre)
commercial parcel that was previously used as an automotive service center for Pommerening
Auto Village, which closed its location at this site. The property is now used by Franklin
Equipment for commercial and equipment rental and storage. The surrounding area consists
predominately of commercial uses with Interstate 41 to the east. The immediate properties on
the south, north and across I-41 to the east are commercial properties. The adjacent property on
the west is a vacant property. The 2040 Comprehensive Plan recommends Interstate
Commercial land use for the subject property and immediately adjacent properties.
ANALYSIS
The petitioner is requesting this zone change to allow for the combination of the subject parcel
and a portion of the adjacent parcel to the west. The property to the west was recently rezoned
to SMU-PD and a Planned Development approved for a senior living community on that parcel.
Currently the property at 237 N.Washburn Street is used by Franklin Equipment for commercial
and equipment rental and storage. The owner intends to combine the adjoining parking area.
No physical site alterations are proposed for the subject property at this time. The rezone to the
Planned Development overlay is necessary for a "clean up" of the property lines for the site at
237 N. Washburn Street to include the rear parking area. The Planned Development will also
provide the ability to accommodate future needs for the site.
RECOMMENDATION
The Plan Commission recommended approval of the zone change at its August 20, 2019
meeting.

ANALYSIS
The petitioner is requesting this zone change to allow for the combination of the subject parcel and
a portion of the adjacent parcel to the west. The property to the west was recently rezoned to SMU-
PD and a Planned Development approved for a senior living community on that parcel. Currently
the property at 237 N.Washburn Street is used by Franklin Equipment for commercial and
equipment rental and storage. The owner intends to combine the adjoining parking area. No
physical site alterations are proposed for the subject property at this time.
Staff is supportive of the rezone as the Planned Development overlay is necessary for a"clean up"
of the property lines for the site at 237 N.Washburn Street to include the rear parking area. The
Planned Development will also provide the ability to accommodate future needs for the site.
RECOMMENDATION/CONDITIONS
Staff recommends approval of the zone change from Suburban Mixed Use (SMU) District to
Suburban Mixed Use—Planned Development(SMU-PD) District as requested.
The Plan Commission approved of the zone change as requested. The following is the Plan
Commission's discussion on this item.
Site Inspections: Report: Mr. Hinz and Ms. Propp reported visiting the site.
Staff report accepted as part of the record.
The applicant requests a zone change from the existing Suburban Mixed Use (SMU)District to
Suburban Mixed Use-Planned Development(SMU-PD) District for the property located at 237
N. Washburn Street.
Mr. Wiley presented the item and reviewed the site and surrounding area as well as the land
use and zoning classifications in this area. The petitioner is requesting this zone change to
allow for the combination of the subject parcel and a portion of the adjacent parcel to the west.
The property to the west was recently rezoned to SMU-PD and a Planned Development
approved for a senior living community on that parcel. Currently the property at 237 N.
Washburn Street is used by Franklin Equipment for commercial and equipment rental and
storage. The owner intends to combine the adjoining parking area. No physical site alterations
are proposed for the subject property at this time. The Planned Development overlay is
necessary for a "clean up" of the property lines for the site at 237 N. Washburn Street to include
the rear parking area. The Planned Development will also provide the ability to accommodate
future needs for the site. He said staff recommends approval of the zone change from Suburban
Mixed Use (SMU)District to Suburban Mixed Use—Planned Development(SMU-PD) District
as requested.
Item-Zone Change—237 N.Washburn St.
j Mr. Fojtik opened up technical questions to staff.
Ms. Palmeri asked if there were any plans for changing the use.
i
Mr. Wiley said he believes they just want access to the paved area. He explained the paved area
is nonconforming because the way it is divided. He said the property to the west does not have
a use for the paved area.
Ms. Nieforth commented it is more about circulation of the site and to have access around the
building.
Mr. Fojtik opened up the public hearing and asked if the applicant wanted to make any
statements.
Russel Reff(applicant), 217 Ceape Avenue, stated he is here on behalf of Shoreland
Development. He said Chris Pommerening,whose family owns the property,is also present.
He explained his client has an easement that runs from north Witzel Avenue to the edge of the
paved property. He said they have had that for many years and have used the easement. He
stated the easement ended short of the paved piece of property. He said Art Pommerening
paved that area many years ago assuming it was part of the easement. He said they have an
adverse possession claim to that parcel and that is one of the reasons the paved area is being
deeded to them. He said in addition to that,they had an easement that essentially goes from
Witzel Avenue through part of the Wertsch property and then goes east to the back of the Fleet
Farm property. He said they are eliminating that easement on the Wertsch property so they
will be able to develop it better and also exchange it for the piece of land in the back. He said
the paved area has been used for many years and they did not realize the issue until the
proposal of the senior living facility. He explained there was discussion with staff and rezoning
was staff's recommendation. He commented it is a win-win for all parties.
There were no other public comments on this item.
Mr. Fojtik closed the public hearing and asked if the applicant wanted to make any closing
statements.
There were no closing statements from the applicant
Motion by Perry to adopt the findings and recommendation as stated in the staff report.
Seconded by Mitchell.
Mr. Fojtik asked if there was any discussion on the motion.
There was no discussion on the motion.
Motion carried 9-0.
