HEARING REQUIRED: Public
SUMMARY:
The City has received a request from Millwood Terrace, Inc. to amend the City’s Future Land Use Map from Office (O) to Commercial (C), and the City’s Zoning Map from R-2 (Residential Office) and C-2 (Commercial) to C-1 (Retail Commercial).
The property currently has split zoning with a more intense commercial zoning designation of C-2 on the southeastern portion and R-2 on the western portion; the Future Land Use Map (FLUM) is consistent with Commercial and Office designations. This request will provide the parcel with a singular zoning district category of C-1 and a singular FLUM designation of Commercial.
Although the C-1 zoning district currently does not lie within the immediate area, the proposed district will appropriately serve as a transition area between the more-intensive C-2 zoning abutting the subject property to the east and the more-restrictive R-1AAA zoning district directly across North Baylen Street to the west. Additionally, it will serve as a transition to the properties located directly to the south across W. Jordan and north across W. Maxwell Streets which are located within the R-2 zoning district.
On October 10, 2019, the Planning Board unanimously recommended approval of the request.
