PROPOSED USE: Multi-unit residential development.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (5-0) on October 14, 2021.

CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The 1.61± acre site consists of one parcel developed with a former supermarket predominantly zoned in the C-4, Commercial District with a small portion of the site zoned in the R-3, Residential District that contains the site’s dumpster facilities. The requested AR-2 Apartment Residential District will permit redevelopment of the site with multi-unit residential development.

Staff finds this proposal to be consistent with the density recommendation of the Plan and recent infill development proposals in the area. A concurrent Council Variance (Ordinance #3147-2021; CV21-057) has been filed to permit commercial vehicular access through the site, and to reduce the required number of parking spaces, parking lot landscaping area, vision clearance triangles, and parking and building setback lines.
