Body
REQUESTOR:
Economic Development, Tourism, and Planning Department
BACKGROUND:
The applicant, Envision Dallas, is a non-profit manufacturing and service center for persons with blindness. They are requesting Specific Use Permit (SUP) approval to utilize an approximate three-acre area of their property addressed as 1801 Valley View Lane for outside storage. The outside storage area consists entirely of new vehicles being stored for sales delivery from a local dealership. This use will be independent of the operations within the building presently, which include a variety of uses such as manufacturing, warehouse, distribution, offices, cafeteria, medical offices/rehab center, and a proposed early learning center with an outdoor play area. The site is zoned Planned Development No. 77 (PD-77), which requires approval of an SUP for outside storage as an accessory use per Ordinance No. 2424. The proposed vehicle storage use is temporary in nature and is not intended to occur for longer than 36 months. Therefore, this request falls under the classification of ‘Interim Use,’ which provides a time limit for the expiration of the SUP.
