Location: 5959 Earle Brown Drive Request: Special Use Permit The applicant requests special use permit approval to operate a health club for women in the Brookview Plaza Shopping Center at 5951 Earle Brown Drive. The location in question is zoned C2 and is bounded on the northeast by Summit Drive, on the southeast by Earle Brown Drive, on the southwest by Best Company retail/warehouse, and on the northwest by Target. Health clubs are allowed by special use permit in the C2 zoning district. The health club is to occupy 14,330 sq. ft. in the center next to the space formerly occupied by Designer Depot. The applicant has submitted a letter of application and a floor plan of the proposed space. The space will include a large aerobics room for dance exercises with a running track around it. A 60' x 20' pool,` 4' in depth, for lap swimming and water aerobics is also included, as well as a "workout" room with nautilus equipment. Also included in the floor plan of the space are rooms for lockers, showers, sauna, steam, suntanning, "sales," offices, multi -purpose, and nursery. The "sales" offices are actually for fitness consultants who will work with clients on their fitness programs. As a special use, the proposed health club is subject to the standards contained in Section 35-220.2 of the Zoning Ordinance (attached). The main concern presented by the Zoning Ordinance is parking. The parking formula for halth clubs is twenty (20) spaces for the first 1,000 sq. ft. of gross floor area anti one space for every 300 sq. ft. of G.F.A. thereafter. The parking requirement for the total space is 64 spaces. The average weight of the retail parking formula for this building is 6.2 spaces per 1,000 sq. ft. or 88.8 spaces for the space in question. Therefore, parking available for the floor area in question exceeds th requirement of the ordinance for the health club use. There is, therefore, no parking problem with the proposed use. As to the relationship of the proposed health club use to the surrounding neighborhood, staff see no negative impact. The surrounding neighborhood includes retail establishments, a clinic, high-rise offices and high-rise residential. The proposed health club for women should fit well into such a neighborhood and meet a growing demand for an exercise facility. Altogether, the proposed use appears to meet the standards for a special use permit and approval is recommended, subject to at least the following conditions: 1. The special use permit is issued for a health club use and may not be transferred to any other type of use. 2. The special use permit is subject to all applicable codes, ordinances and regulations and any violation may belgrounds for revocation. 3. Building plans are subject to review and approval by the Building Official with respect to applicable codes prior to the issuance of permits. 7-30-87 -1- Anlic:ation No. 87016 continued 4. Swimming pool plans are subject to review and approval by the State Health Department prior to the issuance of permits. 5. The swimming pool and shower room shall be licensed as required by section 7-201 of the City Ordinances prior to operation. 6. Suntanning beds shall be inspected by the City Sanitarian on a yearly basis. 7-30-87 -2- ki C2 { NO Io / r i I/ summlI APPL Aw l GRANDVIEW B PARK S me
