Site Plan and Zoning Context  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Current GCO land use regulations prohibit the retail sale of used vehicles. In an effort to reconcile the 
existing land use into conformity with zoning requirements, this application would change the base zoning 
of the Property from GCO to C-3.  The property has some non-conforming development standards related 
to its development under C-3 zoning prior to current code requirements.  The following table shows the 
setbacks typically required under current C-3 for reference.
