ORDINANCE NUMBER 15-10810
AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ORDINANCE NUMBER 8526, CODIFIED AS CHAPTER
42 OF THE SALINA CODE, AND THE ZONING DISTRICT MAP OF THE CITY OF
SALINA, KANSAS BY REZONING AND PRESCRIBING THE PROPER USES OF
w CERTAIN PROPERTY WITHIN THE CITY.
BE IT ORDAINED by the Governing Body of the City of Salina, Kansas:
Section 1. Findings. In relation to the following described real estate:
Lot Nine (9) except the East Fifteen Feet (E 15ft.) thereof and Lots Ten (10) and
Eleven (11), in Surveyor's Plat Twelve (12) in the City of Salina, Saline County,
Kansas. (the "Property")
the Governing Body makes the following findings:
1. All conditions precedent for the amendment of the City's Zoning District Map and the
rezoning of the Property have been timely met;
2. While the subject properties could be suitable for residential redevelopment, they are more
suitable for an expansion of Kenwood Park and an enhanced entryway into the Bicentennial
Center complex. The Midway already serves as the Ohio Street entrance into Kenwood Park
and the Bicentennial Center but visibility is currently obstructed and directional and
wayfinding signs are insufficient. The current R-2 zoning at the southwest comer of The
Midway and Ohio inhibits the ability of the City to install an electronic message center sign
that would identify the main entrance and inform the public (residents and out-of-town
visitors) of upcoming Bicentennial Center and community events;
3. The Public Use — Exposition Facilities (P -EX) zoning classification being requested by the
applicant was developed specifically for Kenwood Park because the existing C-3 (Shopping
Center) zoning classification is not reflective of its ownership and current use. The
properties at Ohio and Midway are a logical and contiguous extension / expansion of the
existing public facilities use;
4. The Midway serves as a transition area between the residential corridor along Ohio Street
and Kenwood Park. The requested P -EX zoning would be compatible with the future zoning
and current use of Kenwood Park and nearby residential use if the proposed message center
sign is appropriately sized, light spill from the sign is adequately controlled and the
entryway site is adequately buffered from adjacent uses;
5. The applicant's design plans for The Midway are consistent with existing traffic patterns and
traffic flow into and out of Kenwood Park;
6. Municipal facilities, such as the Bicentennial Center, are identified as a primary use in the
Public / Semi -Public land use area and approval of the requested PDD (P -EX) zoning would
be consistent with the Public / Semi -Public land use designation and the Smoky Hill River
Renewal Master Plan; and
7. The Bicentennial Center is an important asset of the community and the proposed sign is an
important feature of the entryway.
Section 2. Amendment. DISTRICT "PDD P -EX", PUBLIC USE -EXPOSITION
FACILITIES PLANNED DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT. The Zoning District Map of the City
w of Salina. Kansas is amended to rezone the Property as part of DISTRICT "PDD P -EX", PUBLIC
USE -EXPOSITION FACILITIES PLANNED DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT.
