Key outcomes at a glance:

- Zone change approved (Case C24-00008): The commission approved rezoning 1822 Glendale Avenue from RD-6 (duplex residential) to a multi-dwelling residential district. Applicant Faldo Perez described a proposed four-unit, 7,000-square-foot building and said renovation work is already underway. The commission voted to forward the approved rezoning to City Council; the applicant will appear before council on March 19.

- Special use permit approved (Case SUP24-00141): The commission approved a special use permit for an existing smoke shop to relocate within a strip center at 3015 Glendale Avenue, subject to 11 conditions (landscaping islands, bicycle parking and other site improvements). Applicant Bridal Najee said the business has operated at the shopping center since 2021 and the landlord confirmed willingness to implement required site changes.

- Special use permit approved (Case SUP24-007): The commission approved a special use permit for a used auto sales lot at 2204 North Reynolds Road, subject to 26 conditions. Applicant Shafiq Al Ketchin said the parcel meets minimum lot-size requirements and that initial operations will focus on sales with service added later.

- Zone change deferred (Case Z24-0007): The commission deferred one major rezoning — HealthPartners' request to rezone 815 Navarre Ave. for a community health center — for 60 days so the applicant can hold another public meeting and directly engage adjacent neighbors. (See separate article.)

- Planned Unit Development approved (Case PUD24-0001): The commission approved a PUD and associated waiver requests to allow construction of a new Washington branch library at 3027 Alexis Road. Staff and the applicant discussed a 20,000-square-foot single-story building, an on-site book-drop/drive-up window, two exits and a 28-space parking lot; the applicant proposed a six-foot privacy fence where the library property abuts residential zoning and a plan to connect walkways to nearby Tremainesville Avenue. The commission also recommended one waiver for encroachments into a required 60-foot open-space perimeter area to City Council and approved the PUD with 44 conditions.

- Text amendment adopted (Case M-9-24): The commission recommended a text amendment to add locational criteria for car washes, including a 100-foot separation from existing residences and a half-acre minimum lot-size benchmark informed by peer-city comparisons. The commission approved the amendment for referral to City Council.

- Self-storage study (Case M-10-24): After staff analysis of best practices and local market data, the commission approved staff’s recommendation to make no changes to the zoning code for self-storage units, citing existing regulations and the consumer preference for storage close to homes.

Other procedural items: the commission approved minutes from Jan. 16 and deferred Case SUP24-00113 (a tobacco-shop permit for 606 N. Reynolds Road) to the March agenda at the applicant’s request.

All approvals on Feb. 1 were recorded as unanimous voice votes; the commission made several approvals contingent on stated site conditions and, where applicable, recommended waivers to City Council. Cases approved by the commission will next appear before council on March 19, unless otherwise specified by staff.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Toledo - Toledo City Plan Commission on 2025-02-13 2:00 PM - Feb 13, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","On Feb. 1 the Toledo City Plan Commission approved zone changes, special use permits and a planned-unit development for the Washington branch library and recommended an amendment guiding car-wash siting; one rezoning request for an East Toledo health center was deferred for more neighborhood outreach.","taxTitle","Toledo, Lucas County, Ohio","taxId",2665,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6666843,"Plan commission delays rezoning request for proposed East Toledo community health center",2414,1205000,3619000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2307819-4f512be31c9daac673398d47fbdeb703&start=1205&end=3619","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2307819-4f512be31c9daac673398d47fbdeb703/thumbnail_1205000.jpg","/articles/6666843/Toledo/Lucas-County/Ohio/Plan-commission-delays-rezoning-request-for-proposed-East-Toledo-community-health-center","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6666843-33f716c7cf05f158c5d63dcba84d3221/orig.mp4?Expires=1775131341&Signature=m14-S4yoyIPGqoa5~OLaRou~gRyEXIB5a4Rb2qNVMpoVQ9CFOc3Q58D5KyxEuKLos5XgvAoQoiEAL2cZSBRyn2O4c9ZGNwHmGhO2LOOW4aDbFVzXAxVMU6M3xhukAjhG187JB~m7wXmW4~IfTPrNaj2lqvWf6M0p182UPAGAMalDJChaWAoYGi5t6dUUAhBbZtsDDVqOaV6grGk8t-mSWcVe3eqCoRr7aDNLNw3TE-M1GLB83z0gZQnoGR9B1SU9KorakW03xhB48qxMKoHrZvHMrCH4JsGVn0jrHFuyN6HrRFdngRTuUzPoDCXwQvJXMEKP69OVaboEr3xlgW-B9w__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Toledo City Plan Commission on Feb. 1 deferred a rezoning request from HealthPartners of Western Ohio that would allow construction of a 23,000-square-foot East Toledo community health center at 815 Navarre Avenue.

HealthPartners CEO Janice Sutterhouse told the commission the nonprofit, a federally qualified health center, purchased the site and has $200,000 already invested and funding in place to construct a clinic she said could serve about 6,000 new patients and provide roughly 15,000 primary-care visits annually. \"Our goal is to be in the neighborhoods where poor people live so they actually have access to us,\" Sutterhouse said during her presentation.

Commissioners said they supported the mission but expressed concern that a zoning change to a mixed commercial-residential classification would remain if the clinic later closed or relocated, potentially allowing other commercial uses inconsistent with the surrounding low-density neighborhood. Commissioner Ball summarized the dilemma: zoning changes remain after a use changes, and that permanence prompted requests for stronger neighborhood engagement before approval.

After extended discussion about neighborhood impacts — including traffic, lighting, parking and buffering — Commissioner Paul moved to defer the case 60 days so the applicant could hold another public meeting and make an effort to contact adjacent neighbors in person; Commissioner Whittington seconded. The motion passed unanimously. The applicant agreed to the delay and to return with an update on outreach; the commission said it would expect a report rather than a full rehearing when the case returns.

The commission discussed alternatives such as reviewing the proposal as a special use permit or a community center-type application, which would allow the commission to place use conditions, but staff explained certain conditional-zoning approaches are not legal under local code. Commissioners also suggested the applicant pursue a minor site-plan review if the commission later judged it warranted.

Sutterhouse described the proposed facility as a full-service, neighborhood-based clinic with medical, dental, behavioral health and urgent-care services open evenings and Saturdays; she said the project would create an estimated 68 jobs and an annual payroll of about $5.7 million. Neighbors and an owner of a nearby jewelry business asked questions about parking and landscape screening; one adjacent owner urged more direct outreach to immediate abutters. Sutterhouse said she would do door-to-door canvassing and provide petitions and meeting summaries to the planning staff and council committee.

Because the commission deferred rather than voted to deny or approve, no development approvals were granted and no site-plan review was completed. The commission instructed staff and the applicant to report back on community outreach when the case returns in roughly 60 days.

The deferral does not change federal or state designations referenced in the presentation; HealthPartners remains a federally qualified health center and the site is within a Census tract identified during the presentation as having high poverty and documented health disparities.

Planning staff said they would note the applicant’s outreach when they prepare the record for City Council if the case returns with a recommendation for approval.","HealthPartners, a federally qualified health center, sought rezoning for a 23,000-square-foot clinic at 815 Navarre Ave.; commissioners deferred the request 60 days to allow direct neighborhood outreach and additional community meetings.","actionData","errors"]
