BOARD/COMMISSION REVIEW:
The Planning and Zoning Commission considered this matter on January 15, 2020 and voted to recommend approval of the request (Approved, 9-0). Staff concurs.

The property is approximately 1.25 acres and is currently vacant. It is located west of the Arbor Terrace senior housing assisted living facility, north of the retail buildings, and south of townhomes in the Windridge Unit 1 Subdivision across Leverenz Road.
In 2003, Ordinance #03-165 rezoned the 26 acre Cantore Place property from OCI to B2, and Ordinance #03-166 approved the Preliminary PUD for Cantore Place. The Cantore Place PUD listed land uses as: B2, ORI (Office Research and Light Industry) and R3 (Medium Density Multiple-family Residence). Since 2003, 9 of the 11 buildable lots have been developed with several office buildings, several retail buildings, a veterinary clinic, a bank, a car wash, a senior assisted living facility, and, most recently, a self-storage facility.
