Board approves Special Exception for Legacy Homes office at 34 W Story Road
Summary
The P&Z Board approved a Special Exception allowing office use at 34 W Story Road after staff clarified hours, signage and that most Special Exceptions are property‑specific; a community meeting was held with no objections.
Senior Planner Yvonne Conatser presented a Special Exception request for 34 W Story Road to allow office use by Legacy Homes. Board members sought details about hours of operation, signage, and whether the Special Exception would stay with the property if tenants change.
Staff explained that proposed hours would be similar to surrounding uses, signage would follow code, and that Special Exceptions are typically specific to the property and use; a new tenant seeking a different use would need to submit a new Special Exception application. The staff report noted a community meeting was held with no concerns. Board Member Linda Bennett moved to approve the Special Exception subject to staff conditions; Board Member Mark Hide seconded and the motion passed unanimously, 6–0.
The approval allows office use at the site under the conditions listed in the staff report; future changes of use would require separate review.
