I propose a Limited Mixed Use (MU) zoning district for the property at 401 Elm Street, allowing only the following uses:
· Household Living – no Multi-Dwelling
· General Public and Civic – Cultural Center/Library, Small Event Center, or School
· Eating & Drinking Establishments – only Fast Order Food (i.e. coffee shop)
· Office – except Payday Advance, Car Title Loan Business
· Retail Sales & Service – as listed
· Industrial Facilities – as listed
· Adaptive Reuse – as listed
Other zoning districts that I considered requesting were IL, CN1, and RSO. While each of these districts allow one or two of the three existing or historic uses, none of them allow all three, as MU does:
