Attachment Proposed Amendments The proposed zoning amendments permit single family residences and their accessory uses in the Conservation Commercial District and the addition of self-storage facilities as a specially permitted use in the Conservation Office Park District. Potential Impacts The proposed amendments create no adverseenvironmental impacts. The Conservation Commercial District has many existing single family residences and other buildings that were constructed as single family residences and converted to commercial uses like offices. Permitting single family residences within the district will not adversely impact the character of the district and the adverse environmental impact of single family residences is less than that of the other uses permitted in the CC District. Commercial Warehouse Facilities are permitted in the Conservation Office Park District. Self- storage warehouse facilities have less adverse environmental impacts than commercial warehouse facilities and would not change the character of the zoning district.
