Zoning Text Amendment
Architectural Nexus CB Zoning Text Amendment
Petition Number: PLNPCM2020-01024
Zoning District: CB
City Council District: Seven (7)
Salt Lake City has received a request from Architectural Nexus proposing a zoning text amendment to the CB – Community Business zoning district that would allow a “School: Professional and Vocational (Outdoor)” and associated activities to be allowed on a defined portion of their property at 2545 E. Parleys Way. The property is zoned CB – Community Business zoning district which only allows vocational uses within an enclosed building. The applicant proposes to use a designated portion of their site for the building of Accessory Dwelling Units or tiny homes on an ongoing basis, with the structures donated to the community through a charitable giving program. This proposal would designate an area approximately 3,750 square feet in size at the back of an existing parking lot for this use to occur. To that end, the applicant is proposing an amendment to the CB zoning district to establish a designated “Build Area” on their site where a “School: Professional and Vocational (Outdoor)” is allowed. This amendment would not apply to other properties in the CB zoning district or beyond the designated area on this property.
Project Location
Property located at approximately at 2545 E. Parleys Way.
