Most recently, it was used by Disco Home Improvement. Physical Characteristics: The approximately one-acre site is flat and is bordered on the north by Jones Street, to the east by Harrison Street, to west by Metz Baking Company and this property is also highly visible to the Locust Street Connector that connects to Highway 20 and 61/151 through this portion of downtown. Concurrence with Comprehensive Plan: The subject request involves the following Comprehensive Plan's Land Use Element: Goals 2.1, 2.2, 5.2, 7.2 and 7.3. Impact of Request on: Utilities: Existing utilities are adequate to serve the site. Traffic Patterns/Counts: There are no vehicle counts for Harrison or Jones Streets. The section of Locust Street immediately west of the subject property carries approximately 30,000 vehicle trips per day, while the Jones Street Connector immediately east of the subject site carries approximately 22,000 vehicle trips per day. Public Services: Existing public services are adequate to serve the site. Environment: Staff does not anticipate any adverse impact to the environment as the proposed site is almost completely covered with building and pavement at this Rezoning Staff Report - 210 Jones Street Page 2 time. Any changes to the zoning of this site will have a minimum impact on the environment. Adjacent Properties: Staff does not anticipate any significant impacts to adjacent properties. The most likely impact from the rezoning of the site to commercial would be an increase in the number of vehicle trips into this area. CIP Investments: None proposed. Staff Analysis: The applicant is requesting rezoning of the property at 210 Jones Street from LI Light Industrial to C-4 Downtown Commercial zoning district. The subject property has been used by Disco Home Improvements for many years, and is located adjacent to Locust Street and the Locust Street Connector in downtown Dubuque. The subject building is a two-story brick structure that is highly visible from the surrounding highway and streets. Rezoning of the subject property would reflect an expansion of existing C-4 Downtown Commercial District that currently lies to the northwest of the site. The applicants are requesting the change in zoning from LI to C-4 to facilitate conversion of the building to a furniture store. According to City records, the subject property has always been zoned light industrial; however, there has been a mix of commercial zoning surrounding the property over the years that was removed as part of the freeway construction in the 1980's. The subject building is adjacent to the Sara Lee Baking Company located immediately east of the site, with loading facilities for the baking company immediately south of the subject property. Access to this site is from Jones Street by way of Highway 61/151. Traffic counts for Harrison Street on the building's west side and Jones Street on the building's east side are not available, but are low given the roundabout access to the site and the current use of the building. Traffic counts on Locust Street parallel to the building are approximately 30,000 vehicle trips per day while the Locust Street Connector carries approximately 22,000 vehicle trips per day. These traffic counts are based on 2001 data and staff anticipates these numbers will have grown appreciably since that time. Planning staff recommends the Zoning Advisory Commission review section 6-1.1 of the City Zoning Ordinance that establishes the criteria for reviewing rezoning requests.
