Title
PUBLIC HEARING: Consider a request for a Specific Use Permit (SUP) for Wholesale Plus, to operate a retail store with used goods and merchandise sales, located in an existing multi-tenant building on 1.98 acres, on the east side of N. Main Street, approximately 480 feet southeast of the N. Main Street and Johnson Road intersection, legally described as Lot 1, Block 1, of the Davis-Addition Keller subdivision, zoned Old Town Keller and addressed 432 N. Main Street, Suite 400. Montie Ray Davis, Owner. George Haddad, Applicant. (SUP-2506-0025).
Body
Background:
Wholesale Plus received a Certificate of Occupancy on April 4, 2024, for the sale of new household goods and sport related items.
In June 2025, Code Compliance staff received a complaint of the business selling used goods. A case was opened for the legal non-conforming use and the Applicant was informed that they would need a Specific Use Permit (SUP) to continue operation.
An SUP is required to sell used goods in the Old Town Keller (OTK) zoning district.
Site Design:
The Applicant is proposing to continue operation out of an existing 1,200 square foot lease space in the west building of 432 N. Main Street, in Suite 400. The space was previously occupied by a flower shop.
Parking is shared between the various lease spaces on the lot. The parking requirement for retail use is one space per 200 square feet of floor area, bringing the total number of spaces needed to 6 plus the 1 required accessible space. There are at least 13 parking spaces directly adjacent to the proposed lease space.
Proposed Hours of Operation:
Tuesday - Saturday: 10:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.
Summary:
Section 8.02 (F)(2) of the UDC states that when considering an SUP request, the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council shall consider the following factors:
1) The use is harmonious and compatible with surrounding existing uses or proposed uses;
2) The activities requested by the applicant are normally associated with the permitted uses in the base district;
3) The nature of the use is reasonable and appropriate in the immediate area;
4) Any negative impact on the surrounding area has been mitigated; and
5) That any additional conditions specified ensure that the intent of the district purposes are being upheld.
Citizen Input:
On June 26, 2025 the City mailed out 39 letters of notification for this Public Hearing to all property owners within three-hundred feet (300’) of the subject site. A public hearing notice sign was posted on the site.
Staff has received no letters of support or opposition in response to this SUP request.
SUP Request:
1. To sell used goods in the Old Town Keller Zoning District.
