ZOniDl! The existing parcel is located on a flat, vacant site in the Stanley Business Park and is zoned PUD - C (Planned Unit Development - Commercial) District. The City Council approved the Stanley Business Park PUD in December 8,1981, under PUD-81-15 (Ordinance #1010), This PUD approval made spe- cific automotive-related uses, e,g., repair, sales, etc" permitted uses; these uses are typically condition- ally permitted uses in the City's commercial zoning districts. Building materials sales and garden cen- ters and plant nurseries - the main components of the proposed I lome Depot store - are conditionally allowed uses in the business park, therefore, requiring conditional use permit approval. Neighborhood commercial retail uses are not allowed by the Stanley Business Park PUD approval, therefore, requiring the PUD development plan modification. The Stanley Business Park PUD references the development standards of the City's CS (Service Com- mercial) district for building height, setbacks, and floor area ratio, and parking. As shown in the follow- ing table, the proposed development meets or exceeds the minimum requirements of the Stanley Busi- ness Park PUD development plan approval for this site.
