th
The applicant is requesting to rezone Lot 22, Block 3, Sunset Park 6 Filing, totaling 0.85
acres from R-5, Multiple-Residential and Office District to R-6, Multiple-Residential and
Commercial District to accommodate the future development of a laundromat and
apartments.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
None.
BACKGROUND:
The subject property is located west of South Prairie Avenue and north of Amherst
Avenue, generally located west of the State Fair Grounds in the Sunset Park Subdivision,
6th Filing. The 0.85-acre site is comprised of a single undeveloped parcel. A preliminary
site plan has been submitted for development with a proposed laundromat along Amherst
Avenue and apartments located behind the laundromat on the north side of the property.
The proposed laundromat and residence, multifamily are both a use by right in the
Multiple-Residential and Commercial (R-6 Zone) District. The applicant is requesting to
construct a new laundromat facing Amherst Avenue. The laundromat will be a 3,000
square foot single story building and will house 80 to 90 washing machines and dryers
for patron use. Behind the laundromat will be a two-story apartment building, which will
provide eight new apartments. The proposed apartment building is approximately 7,200
square feet and if each apartment has the same floor plan, each apartment will be
approximately 900 square feet. Based on the proposed site plan the laundromat and
apartments have the appropriate number of parking spaces required by Sec 17-4-42 &
Sec 17-4-43. The applicant currently owns multiple residential rental properties and
laundromats in Pueblo, to include Lady Fair Laundromat at 1141 South Prairie Avenue.
The applicant states that Lady Fair Laundry, which is located a block south of the
proposed rezone site, will close and be moved to this new location if the requested
rezoning and the commercial plan review are approved.
