Summary of Applicant’s Request:
The subject site is currently undeveloped with a zoning classification of PDP(GC) with Specific C-4 uses. The petitioner is requesting a rezoning to PDP(HHC) with specific C-1, C-2, I-1 and I-2 uses listed as follows:
The following requested uses from the C-1 District:
• Business, professional and nonprofit offices
• Restaurants with or without alcohol dispensation

• Drive-in restaurants
• Tire and Automotive accessory establishments
• Automotive Specialty Establishments
• Automotive and Truck Rental Establishments
• Veterinarian and Animal Clinics or Hospital Establishments
• Domestic Rental Establishments
• Light Construction Service Establishments
• Automobile Service Establishments
The following permitted uses in the I-1 Light Industrial District

• Light Outdoor Advertising Service Establishments
• Light Research, Development and Testing Laboratories

It is anticipated that the Cortez Crossing Subdivision will develop with a mix of commercial and industrial uses, and the PDP/HHC designation provides the flexibility to develop with associated light commercial, heavy commercial and industrial uses with or without outdoor storage. Commercial uses would be located closer to SR 50 and the use mix would transition in intensity to the south consistent with currently developed lots in the subdivision.
