and 13`" Lane. The subject site was part of the fottner Velde Ford car dealership site (new and used car dealer), which included at least four parcels of land. The new site plan, which includes two of those parcels, proposes a used vehicle sales use with accessory auto repair service. In the county zoning code, the "used vehicle sales ' use is differentiated from the "new and used car dealer" use. On CG (General Commercial) zoned sites. special exception use approval is required for a used vehicle sales" use, while ' new and used car dealer ' uses are allowed by right in the CG district. This project represents redevelopment of the CG zoned site and will upgrade the site to meet current site plan development standards with the conditions recommended at the end of this report. At its regular meeting of January 10, 2002, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted 7-0 to recommend that the Board of County Commissioners approve the special exception use request with the conditions contained in the recommendation at the end of this report (see attachment #4). At this time, the Board of County Commissioners is to consider the request and is to approve, approve with conditions, or deny the special exception use request for a used vehicle sales business. Pursuant to section 97L05 of the land development regulations (LDRs), the Board is to consider the appropriateness of the requested use for the subject site and surrounding area. The Board may attach reasonable conditions and safeguards necessary to mitigate impacts and to ensure compatibility of the use with the surrounding area. ANALYSIS 1.
