Request for use-by-exception as permitted hy Section 24-111 (c}{2), to permit a
veterina1y clinic withi11 the Commercial General (CG) Zoning District at 725 Atlan tic
Boulevard, Unit 1.
725 ATLANTIC BOULEVARD, UNIT 1
John Green DVM
July 9, 2015
DEREK W REEVES, PLANNER
The applica nt is Dr. john Green, th e owner and operator of an existing veterinary clinic at 519 Atlantic
Boulevard in Atlantic Beach. Services cover a ll things h ea lthcare for household pets, but do not offer ove r night
or long term boarding of a nim als . Th e app li cant is r equ ired to obtain a Use-By-Exception per Section 21-
111(c)(2), which states one is neede d for, "veter in ary clinics" within the Commercia l General zoning district.
The s ite is located at the end of a n existin g comme rci a l strip cen ter within the Commercial General zoning
district. Within the strip center there is a nail anti spa place to the west and warehouse uses to the north. The
south side is the storefron t for the clinic and Lhe east wa ll is the exterior of the building. Immediate neighbors
to the strip center are other com mercial uses to the so uth, east and west. To the north and north east is some
multi-family residential a nd beyond that is some si ngle fam ily residentia l within 300 feet. Amp le parking is
provided for the enti re shopping ce nter. Constructi on on the prop erty would be limi ted to a n interior build out
a nd new s ign age. The Interior build out wil l atte mpt to limit noise by strateg ica lly locating cages, using
insulated sl idin g glass doors and noor to ceil ing sou nd proofing in the wa ll s. Th e app licant, in conjunction w ith
th e property owner, has agreed to place waste bags and baskets outside the unit for customers use. The
app licant will maintain the waste baskets whil e a lso hosing off sidewalks as necessary.
Based on the location re lative to residentia l and the Jack of overnight boarding of anima ls, staff expects little lo
no negativ e impacts as a result of this business. Due to the close proximity to public right-of-ways a nd the
shared na ture of the s h opping cente r, It is recom me nd ed to add a r eq u ire me nt for waste bags an d baskets as a
con diti on of a pproval. It is also recommended to ad d a requirement for sound p roofin g to be installed between
this unit of the shopping center and its immediate ne ighbors as a condition of approva l. While these solutio ns
are offe re d by the app li cant th ey would not be required unless a dd ed as a cond it ion.
