Summary

The commission approved rezoning of 125 Canebrake from B5P to I-1 for an enclosed recreational-vehicle storage facility and accepted revised staff recommendations for the companion development plan, subject to standard sign-offs and conditions including sidewalks, parking depiction and a dump-station design.

The Development Planning Commission unanimously approved a zoning map amendment to rezone 125 Canebrake from interchange service (B-5-P) to light industrial (I-1) to allow an enclosed recreational-vehicle storage facility. The vote followed staff presentations and a development-plan review that identified required conditions and sign-offs.

Staff described the site as roughly 0.99 acres on Canebrake Drive, north of the interstate, in an area the urban growth master plan labels for flex industrial uses. Planning staff said the proposed use—an enclosed building to store large RVs—aligns with the place-type and development-type recommendations of the master plan, and that the project would add sidewalk connections and street trees where none currently exist.

Commissioners asked several technical questions about parking, vehicular-use area landscaping and a proposed on-site RV dump station. Planning staff said whether the paved circulation areas are labeled “parking” or “circulation” they are subject to vehicular-use-area landscaping standards and screening requirements. Tony Thomas, representing the applicant (D and J Realty owner David Samarkar), described the proposed building as enclosing five large RVs and said the applicant will design a sanitary dump station to meet local sanitary requirements and connect to an existing manhole on the site’s south corner.

Commissioner Baker moved to approve the map amendment PLN MAR 25-1 (D and J Realty) from B-5-P to I-1; Commissioner Jonathan Davis seconded and the motion passed unanimously. The commission also moved to approve PLN MJDP 24-93 (development plan for Covey Ridge Lot 4) and later voted to approve PLN MJDP 20-493 (the Canebrake development plan) subject to the revised staff recommendations that require depiction of parking per Article 16, sidewalk facilities, and other standard conditions. Staff noted final certification of the development plan remains contingent on submittal of the required revised plan documents and technical sign-offs.
