Background
There is an existing multi-tenant building at 10450 Baltimore Street that is currently home to Chipotle, Massage Envy, Let’s Dish, Bella Nails, and Washburn McReavy. At this time the applicant is requesting the approval of a conditional use permit to allow for a Pure Barre workout studio in one of the vacant tenant spaces in this building. The city considers such studios to fall under the use of amusement and recreation, and this use requires a conditional use permit according to the PBD (Planned Business District) zoning district requirements.
There will be no site changes associated with this use. All site improvements on this site are current.
The city does an analysis of available parking in these conditional use permit/gym situations to determine that the site will be able to handle this use. The site meets the general retail parking requirements for the commercial use of the building. According to the parking study provided and peak usage times, staff believes the parking provided is sufficient for this use.
Pure Barre, as described in the attached narrative, is a total workout that utilizes a ballet barre to perform small, isometric movements to burn fat and sculpt muscles. Classes will be Monday through Friday with an average of seven classes per day. The hours of operation would generally be 5am to approximately 8pm. The largest classes are during the morning hours when parking is more available. Weekends will generally have 4 classes on Saturday and Sunday mornings. Classes will consist of 10-12 students.
This tenant will occupy one of the vacant spaces, approximately 1,500 square feet, adjacent to Chipotle.
Recommendation
By motion, approve the resolution.
