On December 19, 2023 City Council denied the proposed Comprehensive Plan amendment, Zoning Ordinance amendment and Site Plan for 6016 Vernon Ave.


Ron Dee on behalf of GreenDrop Charitable Donations is proposing to remodel the existing Kee’s auto repair shop at 6016 Vernon Avenue into charitable donation center which would accept donations on behalf of Disabled American Veterans. The GreenDrop donation office would accept donations of gently used clothing, shoes, and household goods. GreenDrop has 61 locations across the country. This office is proposed to be open from 10 am to 6 pm seven days a week, 363 days per year. They would be closed Thanksgiving and Christmas. Two employees would be on the site during business hours. The existing site is zoned PCD-4, Planned Commercial District, which allows only automobile service centers, gas stations and car washes.


To accommodate the request the following is required:

  • A Comprehensive Plan Amendment from Medium Density Residential to Neighborhood Service. (This would establish a new Land Use Category in the Comprehensive Plan.)
  • A Zoning Ordinance Amendment to allow the proposed use in the existing PCD-4 Zoning District.
  • Site Plan Review
