CC: Mayor Nicholas A. Gradisar

FROM: Scott Hobson, Acting Director Planning and Community Development
SUBJECT: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ZONING RESTRICTIONS TO REZONE
APPROXIMATELY THREE ACRES OF LAND GENERALLY LOCATED AT
1725 WEST PUEBLO BOULEVARD FROM B-3, HIGHWAY AND ARTERIAL
BUSINESS ZONE DISTRICT AND A-4, AGRICULTURAL FOUR ZONE
DISTRICT TO B-4, REGIONAL BUSINESS ZONE DISTRICT
SUMMARY:
The applicant is requesting to rezone approximately three acres generally located at 1725 West
Pueblo Boulevard from B-3, Highway and Arterial Business Zone District and A-4, Agricultural
Four Zone District to B-4, Regional Business Zone District to facilitate commercial uses in this
currently vacant area.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
None.
BACKGROUND:
This rezone site spans just under three acres of land northeast of the intersection of West
Pueblo Boulevard and Gretna Avenue and includes six different parcels. Pueblo Urban
Renewal Authority owns the largest of the parcels, which they acquired in 2011 in exchange for
providing financial assistance with the construction of the Minnequa Fire Station and related site
improvements. The rezoning area is located north and east of the former Brass Saddle bar,
which closed about two years ago. The applicant intends to demolish this building for their
intended new commercial construction project that would be permitted under the proposed B-4
Regional Business zoning. The applicant’s tentative site plan proposes a tire shop and a drive-
thru coffee shop; both are uses by right in a B-4 Zone District. When staff requested review
comments from the other city departments, both City Transportation and the Colorado
Department of Transportation made comment on their site plan regarding vehicular access from
Lakeshore Drive. However, neither department has concerns about the rezoning case, and the
applicant intends to implement the proposed changes during the Commercial Site Plan Review
process.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
There are no financial implications for the City.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning and Zoning Commission, at their November 8, 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.
