OVERLAY SUMMARY Large areas zoned General Commercial (CG) and Light Manufacturing (M-1) are proposed to be rezoned to the MU-6 and MU-11 zones. These areas are generally located along the 1-1 5corridor, extending from 400 South to 2100 South. They also include areas along 2100 South from 1-15 to Redwood Road, property at Redwood Road and 500 South, property on 600 North near 600 West, and property on 900 North at 400 West. An interactive mar) of the affected Dronerties is available on the project webpage. The proposed MU-6 and MU-11 zones generally don't allow for the more intense commercial and light industrial uses that are currently allowed in the CG and M-1 zones. Due to this, the City is proposing the 'Transitional Overlay" over these properties to allow a selection of more intensive commercial uses to occur in these areas. Some of the additional uses would be subject to a Conditional Use process. The overlay would require additional landscape buffering standards PROPOSED ADDITIONAL USES to the uses but would also allow for reduced zoning requirements on facade design elements, such as windows, entrances, and ground floor street -facing active uses. Existing Businesses Some businesses may become nonconforming uses if the MU and Transitional Overlay zones are adopted, but could continue operating and change to other similar or lower intensity businesses in the future through the nonconforming use process. New buildings and building expansions over 1,000squarefeet would generally be subject to the Transitional Overlay and other MU zone standards. Change of Nonconforming Use Process A nonconforming use may change to another nonconforming use, provided it is permitted in the MU-2 zone, or the new use has similar or less adverse impacts than the existing use. The below table lists the proposed additional allowed uses and whether they will be permitted (P) or conditional (C). Those uses listed with a C would be subject to a Conditional Use process. U Ambulance service C Vehicle, automobile rental agency P Blacksmith shop C I I vehicle, automobile repair (major) C Bus line yard and repair C I vehicle, automobile sales and service P Equipment rental (indoor) P I Warehouse C Industrial Assembly C Welding shop C Limousine service P I I Wholesale distribution C Sign painting/fabrication C I I Woodworking mill C Taxicab facility C SALT LAKE CITY PLANNING DIVISION v.2 10/22/2024 ADDITIONAL ZONING AND DESIGN STANDARDS The below diagram illustrates the additional standards proposed to apply to the additional uses in the overlay.
