Items for Discussion
A. Mango Express Car Wash — The petitioner seeks approval of a Special Use Permit
to construct and operate a car wash at 151 S. Neltnor Blvd. While Plan Commission
voted unanimously to support the petition, this is an Item for Discussion because a
member of the public spoke at that meeting.
B. Forming America, Ltd. — The petitioner, located at 1200 N. Prince Crossing Rd.,
seeks a fifth amendment to the controlling Special Use Permit to reflect the work
completed on the property. The recommendation includes the need to pave a final
area covered currently by gravel, which the petitioner objects to. Paving this area or
returning it to turf would complete the conformance requirements with City Code.
The Plan Commission voted unanimously in favor of the amendment, including the
need to pave over the gravel area.
C. Text Amendment to Sec. 6.27 of the Zoning Ordinance — The City was approached
by someone who seeks to install several outdoor vending machines; however, this use
is not listed as permitted in the Zoning Code, despite a number of vending machines
already present at various locations. If a use is not listed, the Zoning Code prohibits
its use as stated clearly in the Code. This text amendment would make outside
vending machines legal with certain restrictions. The Plan Commission voted
unanimously in favor of the amendment as proposed, although there was some
discussion on vending machine content.
