February 6, 2017 MEMO TO: V.H. McDonald, City Manager FROM: Liz Becher, Community Development Director °° Craig Collins, AICP, City Planner Aaron Kloke, Planner I SUBJECT: — North Platte Industrial Park Proposed Land Use Recommendation: ‘That Council provide direction to the potential developer of the former Petroleum Club, located in the North Platte Industrial Park, as to whether their proposal for the reuse of the building as a microbrewery would be a permitted land use, pursuant to the approved North Platte Industrial Park Covenants. ‘Summary: On Tuesday, January 24" 2017, members of City staff met with potential developers to discuss City requirements for the redevelopment of the former Petroleum Club, 1301 Wilkins Circle. An aerial map is attached for your reference (Exhibit A). The potential developers would like to purchase the property and establish a microbrewery and restaurant, As an integral part of the microbrewery, a maximum of six (6) grain silos, no taller than thirty-five (35) feet in height, would be added along the northwest edge of the exterior of the building. In addition to serving beer on site, the proposed microbrewery would also assemble and distribute product from this location. The property is properly zoned (C-4 (Highway Commercial)) for a microbrewery; however, the North Platte Industrial Park was originally developed by the City and as the developer, the City instituted Covenants in 1980. Attached as Exhibit B, the adopted Covenants provide a list of permitted land uses in the subdivision and although several of the listed land uses are similar, a microbrewery is not specifically listed. The Covenants do allow the City to permit land uses that are not specifically listed. It is of staffs opinion that there are no other standards, architectural or otherwise, that would prevent the development of a microbrewery, restaurant, and grain silos. Before developing the property, the potential developers would like assurance from the City that the use of the property as a microbrewery would be allowed, and that the exterior addition of six (6), thirty-five (35) foot grain silos would be permitted.1301 Wilkins Circle - Former Petroleum Club ys
