ITEM V: PUBLIC HEARING: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR AN ADAPTIVE
REUSE AT 204 CHURCH AVENUE
GENERAL INFORMATION
Applicant/Property Owner: Clinton Liard, Behind Stained Glass, LLC
Action(s) Requested:
The applicant is requesting a Conditional Use Permit approval for an adaptive reuse at 204
Church Avenue.
Applicable Ordinance Provisions:
Adaptive Reuses are permitted only through a Conditional Use Permit in the Urban Mixed Use
District (UMU) as regulated in Section 30-53(C) of the Zoning Ordinance. Criteria used for
Conditional Use Permits are located in Section 30-382 of the Zoning Ordinance.
Property Location and Background Information:
The subject site is located at the
northwesterly corner of Church Avenue and
Central Street. The subject parcel is about
4,851 square feet (0.11 acres) in area and is
developed with an existing 2,296 square foot
two-story building constructed pre-1920.
According to the City records, this property
was originally used as a single-family house.
Between 1976 and 1977, the use changed to
commercial (abstract and title business).
Since that time the property switched uses
back and forth from commercial to various
institutional uses. The general area has a
wide variety of uses including governmental,
institutional, low to high density residential
and commercial, many of which were former
single-family structures converted to commercial uses.

ANALYSIS
The applicant is requesting approval for a Conditional Use Permit for an adaptive reuse of the
property to convert the existing institutional residential use to a single-family use. Single-
family uses are not permitted in the UMU Zoning District. However, as the original structure
was constructed as a single-family house, an adaptive reuse is the prudent course of action to
legally reestablish the single-family use. According to the applicant, the existing footprint of the
building will not be changed and there are no external design modifications planned.
Staff is in support of the Conditional Use
Permit for the adaptive reuse as the use
conversion will not have a detrimental
impact on the surrounding area and will
not result in increased traffic to the site.
Architecturally, the building already fits
the character of the surrounding area.
Staff also feel the proposed use of the site
will align with the design of the building
itself, as the exterior appearance is
consistent with that of a single-family
home.
RECOMMENDATION/CONDITIONS
In its review and recommendation to the Common Council on an application for a Conditional
Use Permit, staff recommends the Plan Commission make the following findings based on the
criteria established by Chapter 30-382 (F)(3):
(1) Is in harmony with the Comprehensive Plan.
(2) Would not result in a substantial or undue adverse impact on nearby property, the
character of the neighborhood, environmental factors, traffic factors, parking, public

improvements, public property or rights-of-way, or other matters affecting the public
health, safety, or general welfare.
(3) Maintains the desired consistency of land uses, land use intensities, and land use
impacts as related to the environs of the subject property.
Staff recommends approval of the proposed Conditional Use Permit for an adaptive reuse at
204 Church Avenue as with the findings listed above.
