ITEM SUMMARY:
Forming America, Ltd. has petitioned the City to amend their existing special use permit for a fifth time
at 1200 N Prince Crossing Road in the M Manufacturing District for ancillary outside storage on the
property. The amendment is to update the controlling site plan for the special use permit so it is
reflective of what has actually been constructed on the site. The petitioner originally received approval
for their special use permit in 2007 and it is been amended over time to allow more time for the
required paving to be completed. In 2019, a fourth amendment was approved that required the
petitioner to provide a financial security that the City would hold onto until such time that all paving per
the controlling site plan was completed.
The petitioner has paved all portions of the property currently being used for outside storage. There is
approximately 64,000 square feet that was originally to be paved for outside storage but remains
unpaved. The petitioner has indicated they have no need for this storage area any longer and
therefore do not need to pave. This is acceptable provided they do not place any outside storage on
this area to remain unpaved. For their financial security to be eligible for release, however, they must
complete all of the paving identified on the controlling site plan. As such, they are requesting this
amendment so their controlling site plan will replicate what portions of the property they are using for
outside storage, as they have indicated they have no intention to utilize any more of the property for
outside storage.
At their October 3 meeting, members of the Plan Commission voted unanimously (4-0, with three
absent) in support of the fifth amendment to the Special Use Permit.
ACTION PROPOSED:
Discuss and recommend approval of the requested Fifth Amendment to the Special Use Permit for
1200 N Prince Crossing Road.
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:
Members of the Development Committee voted unanimously (4-0) to recommend approval of the
request at their October 9, 2023 meeting.
