Plan Commission recommends M1 rezoning for vacant Dolphin/Coral parcels; asks for more screening on self‑storage plan
Summary
Commission recommended rezoning about 4.27 acres at Dolphin Drive and Coral Drive from M3 to M1 to allow a proposed self‑storage development, and during consultation urged more layered landscaping, masonry base or durable materials at overhead doors, and attention to snow storage and service turning radii.
The Plan Commission recommended rezoning approximately 4.27 acres near the Dolphin Drive/Coral Drive intersection from M‑3 limited business/industrial park to M‑1 light manufacturing to enable a proposed self‑storage facility and held a consultation on the applicant’s preliminary site and architecture plans.
Applicant representatives described proposed office and long linear storage buildings, a gated entry, landscaping and a headhouse with windows to improve the frontage. Commissioners expressed support for adding layered trees and screening along Coral Drive and for considering masonry or other durable materials at garage‑door elevations where vehicle impacts are likely. Fire and engineering had reviewed initial plans and did not register substantive objections, and the applicant said they use higher‑grade metal panels and are open to additional landscaping.
The commission recommended the rezoning unanimously and gave the applicant feedback on adding layered plantings and addressing snow storage, turning radii and durability at overhead doors. Staff will work with the applicant on final site‑plan details before formal plan review.
