The subject site is approximately 1.278 acres and is located in the 5100 Block of East Fitzgerald <br /> Road and is currently undeveloped. <br /> PROJECT DESCRIPTION <br /> 1. The petitioner proposes to rezone from B-2 Commercial District to R-6 Multiple Dwelling District <br /> so that the property will have consistent zoning with the intent to create a 31 lot residential <br /> subdivision. Rezoning the subject site from B-2 Commercial District to R-6 Multiple Dwelling <br /> District would allow for all those uses permitted in the R-6 Multiple Dwelling District. <br /> STAFF ANALYSIS <br /> 1. The surrounding zoning includes R-6 Multiple Dwelling District to the east and B-2 Commercial <br /> District to the north and west. The property to the south is located in Long Creek. The Macon <br /> County and Decatur Comprehensive Plan shows this area as Retail. The permitted uses in the R-6 <br /> Multiple Dwelling District are compatible with Retail as shown in the Comprehensive Plan. The <br /> proposed zoning is compatible with adjacent zoning and uses in all directions. <br /> 2. The proposed rezoning of the subject site should have no adverse effect on the adjacent properties <br /> or the City as a whole. <br /> STAFF RECOMMENDATION <br /> 1. Staff recommends approval of the rezoning. <br />
