Agenda Item Summary:
The applicant has submitted a Major Amendment to a Planned Development Overlay to allow wine manufacturing. The subject property is 2.23 acres in size and zoned Light Industrial District with a Planned Development Overlay. Farm wineries are classified as a Conditional Use in the Light Industrial District. Firehouse Wine Cellars is proposing to relocate the wine manufacturing facet of their business currently operated downtown to the existing 13,568 square-foot building situated on this property. The winery tasting room and retail will continue operation downtown. A 7,787 square-foot portion of the existing building located on the subject property will be used for manufacturing with the remaining 5,781 square feet dedicated to storage. The operation will include bringing in production inputs such as grapes and bottles and sending out completed and filled cases of wine. The manufacturing process will be conducted entirely indoors and there will be four employees at the facility. There is no current plan to retail wine from this location. The loading zone and garbage dumpster will be located in the southwest corner of the building. There is an existing ground-mounted sign located in the northeast corner of the site and the sign face will be changed to advertise the new use. The applicant is requesting an Exception to reduce the amount of landscaping required by 10,410 landscaping points. This site was previously occupied by US Foods which is a food supplier and distribution company.
