SUBJECT: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ZONING RESTRICTIONS TO REZONE
APPROXIMATELY 34.07-ACRES FROM S-1, GOVERNMENT USE
ZONE DISTRICT TO I-2, INDUSTRIAL ZONE DISTRICT
SUMMARY:
The applicant is requesting to rezone approximately 34.07-acres from S-1, Government
Use Zone District to I-2, Industrial Zone District to allow a large truck/trailer parking area
for a distribution center operation.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
None.
BACKGROUND:
The parcel is located southeast of the Pueblo Memorial Airport and directly east of the
Target Distribution Center warehouse south of United Avenue. The site is characterized
by flat sagebrush prairie. The Target Distribution Center warehouse located directly to
the west of this site is a critical multistate distribution center for the Target Corporation
and as such is extremely busy. The large loading and parking area lot is generally at
maximum capacity forcing semi-trucks to queue along United Avenue and use
undeveloped dirt parcels as short-term parking. The applicant is requesting the rezoning
of the adjacent 34-acre parcel to allow approximately 500 trailer stalls for their
distribution operation. The applicant would develop the site in accordance with City
regulations through the commercial site plan review process. The attached site plan
shows the applicant’s intent to pave the parking spaces, provide for stormwater and the
required landscaping. Future plans include connecting a paved access between the
Target Distribution Center warehouse parcel to the west over a small arroyo to this
parcel, as shown on the attached site plan.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
There are no financial implications for the City.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning and Zoning Commission, at their May 10, 2023 Regular Meeting, voted 6-
0 to recommend approval, Commissioner Martinez absent.
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS:
The Planning Department sent out Notice of the Planning and Zoning Commission
Public Hearing to all property owners located within 300 feet of the subject property.
A Public Notice poster was placed on the subject property 15 days prior to the Public
Hearing.
ALTERNATIVES:
If City Council does not approve this Ordinance the property will not be zoned in
accordance with the Pueblo Municipal Code.
Upon request of City Council, the Ordinance could be returned to the Planning and
Zoning Commission for consideration of proposed modifications.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval of the Ordinance.
