I visited the site and found the landscaping in poor condition. Any reuse of
this building needs to replace the landscaping in accordance with the original
site plan approval.
The proposed bingo use is considered a "change in use" through the Springfield
Development Code and needs to conform with the standards of the Code applicable
to the proposed use.
The property was developed for retail sales and therefore the parking standard
used at the time of development was for retail sales/warehouse uses. A total
of 46 paved parking spaces were provided.
Bingo is considered "Recreational" in the Springfield Development Code and is
subject to the following parking standards:
"1 for each 100 square feet of floor area in the primary assembly area and 1
for eaCh 200 square feet of gross floor area in the remainder of the building".
The parking available would only allow 4,000 square feet of the building to be
used for bingo. This would leave ]8,1)110 square feet of the building vacant and
any proposed future use of this 18,000 square feet would have no parking spaces
available.
It appears that this property is inadequate for the proposed use.
