MINIMIP IPHYSICAL CHARAC. : I2000 LAND USE PLAN: I Zonin g Ordinance Amendment - BH District February 7, 1990 Page 2 ' SUMMARY COMMENTS At the present time the Zoning Ordinance allows financial insti- tutions with drive-thru service as a permitted use in the BG, General Business District. However, in the BH, Highway Business District, financial institutions are permitted, but there are no provisions for allowing drive-thru service. This anomoly was ' highlighted during recent consideration of the bank proposal along Market Boulevard and West 79th Street where the site is actually bisected by both the BH and BG district. Staff believes this could be a oversight since the Highway Business District is specifically designated to provide for highway oriented commer- cial development and it is reasonable to assume that a financial institution locating in this district would offer drive-thru ser- vice. Consequently, staff is proposing that Section 20-712, Permitted Uses, No. 1, be revised from financial institutions to financial institutions, including drive-thru service. The Planning Commission reviewed the proposal at their February 7 , 1990, meeting and recommended its approval. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve the proposed ' Zoning Ordinance Amendment as attached. ATTACHMENTS ' 1. Ordinance amendment. I ORDINANCE NO.

Maybe we also want to look at that in connection with the other three zones that we've got and maybe even decide not to have it. Ahrens: I think if you look at R-12, you should look at R-10 and whatever else. ' • Emmings: Might as well . Conrad: I don't want to create a gorilla to review here. ' Krauss: I think what we could do is give you a summary of what we think these districts are accomplishing. Conrad : That' s probably real valid. Like how many do we have or what's gone in and what are you hearing is the need. What are the developer' s saying that we need . Emmings: And why are they all even numbers? That' s what I want to get at. I want something with odd numbers. Conrad : Let's move on quickly and get out of here if we can. ' ZONING ORDINANCE AMENDMENT TO THE BH, HIGHWAY AND BUSINESS DISTRICT TO ALLOW BANK DRIVE-THRU WINDOWS AS A PERMITTED USE. ' Conrad: Without any staff comments, do we have any comments? Emmings: In Section 2 in the ordinance I 'm looking at. Krauss: You know something, they stuck it in there. Emmings: Yeah, and that doesn' t have. Number one, that has nothing to do with banks and number two, it doesn't say anything about being underneath the building . ' Krauss: Well no. Ahrens: This is what was missing last time. Krauss: That's in the text of the original ordinance. I knew I wrote it. I was getting frustrated. The parking ordinance has, this is only one component. One line of that parking line. The parking ordinance itself that was approved had. . . Emmings: So that Section 2 ought to be deleted out of here? ' Krauss: Well it doesn't belong in this one that's for sure. • e+ • Planning Commission Meeting I February 7, 1990 - Page 50 I Emmings: So what, Section 3 should be Section 2 and Section 2 should be deleted? Krauss: Right. Emmings: You guys sat and tried to sandbag us again. ' Ahrens: It's like a picture of the hotel with a green roof. Wildermuth: Don' t worry about it. The roof isn't green. In fact, that I wasn't even the hotel. Emmings: And nobody noticed. Everybody looks at the building and nobody I notices it' s not the building that they're proposing. Krauss: I was standing behind Joan and we' re going , what is that? That doesn't look anything like the thing. Emings moved, Wildermuth seconded that the Planning Commission recommend I approval of the Zoning Ordinance Amendment to the BH, Highway and Business District to allow bank drive-thru windows as a permitted use amended to delete Section 2. All voted in favor and the motion carried. APPROVAL OF MINUTES: Emmings: Can we pass these with 3 of us? We can can' t we? Wildermuth: Sure. Emmings: On the Minutes with just 3 of us because he wasn' t here? Krauss: I think all you need is a simple majority. Emmings: Well you do have a simple majority. Emmings moved, Ahrens seconded to approve the Minutes of the Planning Commission meeting dated January 17, 1990 as presented. All voted in favor' except Wildermuth who abstained and the motion carried. CITY COUNCIL UPDATE. Conrad: Any questions? Emmings: Yeah, on the ongoing list.
