Property Details: Comprised of 1,900+/- SF between 2 structures - 1,463 SF +/- Primary Building (not including below grade SF) - 440 SF +/- Additional Structure - 50+/- Ft Wide Lot - 8+/- Parking Spaces Baltimore County, Maryland, commercial properties with a Business Local (B.L.) base zone and an Automotive Services (A.S.) District overlay (commonly designated on zoning maps as BL-AS) combine neighborhood-serving retail permissions with dedicated allowances for auto-oriented commercial uses. - Zone & District Overview - Business Local (B.L.): The underlying base commercial classification designed primarily for low-intensity, neighborhood-serving retail, professional offices, personal services, and dining establishments. - Automotive Services (A.S.) District: A special overlay district applied within the Urban-Rural Demarcation Line (URDL). It extends or modifies allowable uses on the site to accommodate automotive, fueling, and vehicle-servicing operations that are otherwise restricted or prohibited in standard B.L. zones. - Permitted & Special Exception Uses Under Baltimore County Zoning Regulations (BCZR S230), combining B.L. with an A.S. District influences allowable activities as follows: Category Typical Permitted Uses Standard B.L. Uses (By Right) Retail stores, banks, medical/professional offices, restaurants, personal service shops (e.g., dry cleaners, barbershops, florists). Automotive & Service Uses (By Right or Special Exception depending on criteria) Fuel service stations, auto repair/service garages, car washes, vehicle sales/rental areas, and tire/accessory retail. Key Regulatory Note: While standard B.L. zones generally require a Special Exception or strict location conditions for car washes, service garages, or fuel stations, an A.S. District designation explicitly establishes land-use compatibility for auto-centric operations. - Development & Site Performance StandardsAutomotive operations in a BL-AS district are subject to specific development criteria under the BCZR: - Residential Buffers & Screening: When abutting residential districts (e.g., D.R. or R.C. zones), properties typically require perimeter landscape buffers (often 15 feet or more) and visual screening (fencing or dense evergreen planting). - Parking & Surface Area: Vehicle display, storage, and customer parking areas must feature durable, dustless surfacing with strict layout standards to prevent encroachment onto public rights-of-way. - Lighting & Operational Controls: Exterior lighting fixtures must be shielded and limited in height (typically a maximum of 20 feet near residential boundaries) to control light spillover. - Car Wash & Service Bay Setbacks: Specific distance buffers apply relative to neighboring residential dwellings (e.g., minimum 250-foot separations for certain car wash configurations unless modified by variance or special exception). (Information per Baltimore County Department of Zoning)
