P&Z board denies C-2 Zoning for Tutt Street Property Citing reluctance to set a precedent allowing "spot zoning" in residential neighborhoods, P & Z votes to deny change at Tutt Street property from R-2 Low Density Residential to C-2 Highway Oriented Commercial. Petitioner, Dennis Kemp advised methods of appeal. Case involved an interesting set of definitions and treatment of property which is "government," or "public property." Click on headline for complete story with photo(s) Following a P & Z public hearing, the City of Columbia Planning & Zoning Commission voted down a request by owner Dennis Kemp for a zone change at 401 Tutt Street from R-2 Low Density Residential to C-2 Highway Oriented Commercial, citing a number of reasons, but centering on the the body's opposition to spot zoning. Chairman Joe Flowers presided at both the hearing and the subsequent special called meeting of the P & Z, held one week ago on Thursday, August 10, 2017 at City Hall. On the final vote, on a motion by member Gale Rogers, with a second by George Kolbenschlag, with Roy Rademacher, voted to deny the zoning change request. Member Sue Stivers abstained. In a letter to the Planning & Zoning Commission, Mr. Kemp cited several commercial enterprises along the length of Tutt Street, including a restaurant, a feed supplier, a retail store, a dog grooming location, a daycare facility, and two properties owned by the Columbia, one, a City Streets equipment and materials storage area adjacent to his land and another, the City Gas Department, and cited the noise and unkempt appearance of the city property. Chairman Flowers cited the reasons why each of the other properties were operating in accordance with P & Z codes "conforming use," in the case of Beyond Blessed; were operating with under "conditional use," or, in the case of the City of Columbia property, does not come under commercial classification. Rather, Chairman Flowers said, it is defined as "government" or "public property." He also cited the fact that the automotive facility Mr. Kemp owns is on a single lot, which includes a residence and the commercial enterprise. Mr. Kemp told the P & Z that he's main reason for wanting the change was to install a stand-alone sign, advertising he car business. After the vote was taken, Mr Flowers outlined two steps for Mr. Kemp to follow-up on the decision of the P & Z Board:
A very interesting element of the hearing was how government entities are treated, regardless of where they a icons of the the city, such as City Hall, or, because of the nature of the work done there, not necessarily a welcome part of the neighborhood. This story was posted on 2017-08-17 14:08:54
