2 Background and Summary of Proposal On behalf of a tenant, the applicant is requesting to open a beauty salon in a 1,524-square foot unit within an existing medical office center. Within the O-2 Office District, beauty salons require a Conditional Use Permit for a Hair Care Center. The hours of operation are proposed as 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Monday through Saturday; and 10:00 a.m.to 5:00 p.m., Sunday. No changes are proposed to the exterior of the building with the exception of a new sign above the entrance. The elevation of the sign depicts a raceway mounted channel sign, which is consistent with other signs on the building with regard to style and size. The Zoning Ordinance requires six parking spaces for the salon and 38 parking spaces for the medical office. As there are a total of 47 parking spaces onsite, the minimum requirement is satisfied Zoning History # Request 1 MOD Approved 12/10/ CUP (Bulk Storage Yard) Approved 02/28/ CRZ (AG-2 to Conditional O-2 Office) Approved 04/14/ CRZ (AG-2 to Conditional 0-2 and Conditional B-2 Community Business) Approved 02/24/ CRZ (AG-2 to Conditional R-10 & P-1 w/ PD-H2) Approved 03/28/2006 CUP Conditional Use Permit REZ Rezoning CRZ Conditional Rezoning Application Types MOD Modification of Conditions or Proffers NON Nonconforming Use STC Street Closure FVR Floodplain Variance ALT Alternative Compliance SVR Subdivision Variance Comprehensive Plan Recommendations The Comprehensive Plan designates the subject property as being within the Transition Area. The Transition Area serves as a unique land use area buffering the low density Rural Area to the south from the more densely developed Suburban Area to the north. Within the Transition Area, the Plan calls for development patterns that promote open space, low per acre density and preservation of natural features. Non-residential uses should be neighborhood-serving. These are uses that are scaled to support the needs of nearby residential neighborhoods, users of the Transition Area s open space and recreational areas, and agricultural users. Page 2

3 Natural and Cultural Resources Impacts The site is located in the Southern Rivers watershed. Drainage in the Southern Rivers watershed is highly impacted by the presence of high ground water, poorly draining soils, and high water surface elevations in downstream receiving waters. As the site is developed with an existing medical office center and parking lot, no additional impacts are anticipated with this request. There do not appear to be any significant natural or cultural resources on the site. Traffic Impacts Street Name Present Volume Present Capacity Generated Traffic Fisher Arch No Data Available No Data Available Existing Land Use 2 55 ADT Proposed Land Use ADT 1 Average Daily Trips 2 as defined by a 1,525- square foot medical office 3 as defined by 1,524-square foot hair care center 4 LOS = Level of Service Master Transportation Plan (MTP) and Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Fisher Arch is a two-lane local street with a 60-foot right-of-way. There are no current roadway CIP projects proposed for this area. CIP project (2-033), Princess Anne Road Phase VII-A, is planned for this section of Princess Anne Road. The limits of this project include the roadway segment on Princess Anne Road from Seaboard Road to Sandbridge Road. The improvements will include, but are not limited to, shoulder widening, drainage improvements, and utility relocations. Public Utility Impacts Water & Sewer This site is currently connected to both City water and sanitary sewer service. Evaluation and Recommendation In Staff s view, the request is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan s recommendations for the Transition Area as it will provide a neighborhood-based service that is compatible with the surrounding area. The 47 parking spaces depicted on the site are more than adequate to serve both the proposed and allowed uses. Staff has recommended a condition to address signage, consistent with recent Conditional Use Permit applications for personal services. For the reasons stated above, Staff recommends approval of this application, subject to the conditions below. Recommended Conditions 1. All applicable building permits and occupancy permits shall be obtained as required for a personal service use by the Building Official s Office. 2. Any onsite signage for the hair care center establishment shall meet the requirements of the City Zoning Ordinance, and there shall be no neon or electronic display signs or accents, installed on any wall area of the exterior of the building, in or on the windows, or on the doors. The building signage shall not be a box sign. There shall be no window signage permitted. A separate sign permit shall be obtained from the Department of Planning and Community Development for the installation of the signage. Page 3

4 Further conditions may be required during the administration of applicable City Ordinances and Standards. Any site plan submitted with this application may require revision during detailed site plan review to meet all applicable City Codes and Standards. All applicable permits required by the City Code, including those administered by the Department of Planning / Development Services Center and Department of Planning / Permits and Inspections Division, and the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy, are required before any uses allowed by this Use Permit are valid. The applicant is encouraged to contact and work with the Crime Prevention Office within the Police Department for crime prevention techniques and Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) concepts and strategies as they pertain to this site.
