Public hearing on a request for a conditional use permit regarding approximately .22 acre of land in the Bentley Plaza Survey, Unit C-R, County of Johnson, Texas, located at 103 Conveyor Dr. to allow for the use of a Tattoo removal and application business. Staff Presentation Owner’s Presentation Those in Favor Those Against Owner’s Rebuttal Commissioner Gibson opened the public hearing at 6:31 pm. Staff Presentation- Aaron Maldonado, Development Services Director stated the following: The property is platted. This property is zoned (C-1) Restricted Commercial District. The conditional use permit is to allow for the use of a Tattoo removal and application business. The purpose of the Conditional Use Permit is to allow for review of uses which would not be appropriate generally without certain restrictions throughout a zoning district, but which if controlled as to number, area, location or relation to the neighborhood would promote the health, safety and welfare of the community. Such uses include colleges and universities, institutions, community facilities, zoos, cemeteries, country clubs, show grounds, drive-in theaters and other land uses as specifically provided for in this ordinance. To provide for the proper handling and location of such conditional uses, provision is made for amending this ordinance to grant a permit for a conditional use in a specific location. This procedure for approval of a Conditional Use permit includes public hearings before the Planning and Zoning Commission and the City Council. The amending ordinance may provide for certain restrictions and standards for operation. The indication that it is possible to grant a Conditional Use Permit as noted elsewhere in this ordinance does not constitute a grant of privilege for such use, nor is there any obligation to approve a Conditional Use Permit unless it is the finding of the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council that such a conditional use is compatible with adjacent property use and consistent with the character of the neighborhood. Owner Presentation- Shawn Green, Owner, stated the following: Mr. Green said he has been performing tattoos for 33 years. In addition, he grew up in Joshua. Mr. Green gave a brief description of Texas requirements. Those in Favor/Against- Shelly Anderson, Council Member, asked if anything in the business will generate sales tax. Mr. Green stated not in the beginning but will in the future. After no more comments, Commissioner Gibson closed the public hearing at 6:40 pm.
