Board continues hearing on proposed commercial garage at 1879 Eighteenth Street
The Logansport Board of Zoning Appeals on Sept. 15 continued a petition to operate a commercial garage at 1879 Eighteenth Street after planning staff and the board raised questions about parking ownership, buffering, building condition and outstanding enforcement notices. Planning staff told the board the property is in the AB (Agribusiness) district and that commercial garages are allowed only by special exception with standards including a minimum lot area (15,000 square feet plus 1,000 square feet per service bay over two), screening of vehicles awaiting repair by an opaque fence at least 6 feet tall, and limits on outdoor storage and duration of on‑site vehicles. Staff said the petitioner had been moving vehicles to the site and posting signage without required approvals and that enforcement letters had been issued. Staff also pointed out that the site plan showed parking on land not owned by the applicant and recommended conditions including that parking and the required fence be established before any operations. Petitioner Joshua Weber (with co‑applicant Adelberto Narvaez) told the board they had begun moving to the location after being displaced from another site, that they plan to keep vehicles behind fencing and to repaint and repair buildings, and that they hoped to finish key items within 12–24 months. The board discussed the lack of a recorded survey for the property, the need for the county building commissioner to assess older structures (the elevator/ silo portion) and safety/access issues including ADA access and stacking/backing room for parking. The board voted to continue the case and asked the petitioners to move vehicles currently parked in front to the rear of the site while they resolve ownership, survey and fencing questions. The zoning administrator indicated any operations must comply with the site‑specific conditions and required permits before the board will consider final approval.
