Fritschen AICP, RLA Community Development Director CASE: OBOA 11 -01 DATE: January 25, 2011 BACKGROUND: The City of Owasso received a request for a Special Exception to allow the placement of a non- permanent concession trailer on a property zoned CH. The property is located at 106 East 2nd Street (76th St. N. just east of Main), on the some parcel as Owasso Pawn. The applicant intends to sell BBQ from the trailer during the daytime hours and remove the vehicle at night. SIZE OF LOT: 0.76 acres, (33,250 SF) EXISTING LAND USE: Commercial - Retail Sales (Owasso Pawn) SURROUNDING LAND USE: North: Commercial, CH Zoning South: Commercial, CH Zoning East: Commercial, CH Zoning West: Commercial, CH Zoning PRESENT ZONING: CH (Commercial High Intensity) - Owasso APPROVAL PROCESS "The Board of Adjustment shall hold the public hearing and, upon the concurring vote of three members, may grant the Special Exception after finding that the Special Exception will be in harmony with the spirit and intent of the code, and will not be injurious to the neighborhood or otherwise detrimental to the public; welfare. Provided that the Board in granting a Special Exception shall prescribe appropriate conditions and safeguards, and may require such evidence and guarantee or bonds as it may deem necessary to enforce compliance with the conditions attached." -Section 1480.4 Owasso Zoning Code. ANALYSIS: The applicant desires to sell BBQ from a trailer that will be placed in the parking lot. The applicant indicates that he will remove the trailer in the evenings. A use such as this, temporary concessions trailer is essentially a temporary non - conforming use placed on an existing conforming lot and thus requires approval from the Board of Adjustment According to the Owasso Zoning Code. Letters were mailed to all property owners within three - hundred (300) feet of the subject property and the request was advertised in the Owasso Reporter. Staff received no objections concerning OBOA 10 -09. The applicant provided information as to the size and placement of the vehicle. According to this information the vehicle is a 7' x 12' trailer and it will be parked towards the front of the parking lot, behind the sidewalk next to the sign for Owasso Pawn. The size of the trailer is less than a typical parking stall of 9'x19'. Typically, with uses such as this, parking and avoiding the obstruction of the drive aisles are usually the biggest factors that need consideration. Owasso Pawn is a 7,400 SF retail building and requires 37 spaces according to the zoning code; staff visited the site and determined that parking will not be impacted with the proposed concession trailer. Staff recommends that the applicant park the trailer perpendicular to the frontage of 76th Street North to avoid taking more than one parking stall. Staff has concluded that the concessions trailer will not impact public safety and the welfare of the community and could serve to potentially bring more people into the downtown area. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of OBOA 10 -09 ATTACHMENTS: 1. General Area Map 2. Letter from the Property Owner 3. Copy of Legal Notice Owasso Public Works Department Engineering Div.
