Ashe, Historic Preservation Plannei� <br /> �' <br /> SUBJECT: Rezone from B-2 Commercial District to PD Planned Development District at 3131 <br /> North Water Street <br /> SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the rezoning with the <br /> following condition: A detailed Site Plan, Lighting Plan and Landscape Plan shall be submitted to and <br /> approved by the Economic and Urban Development Department, the De�artment of Engineering and <br /> Infrastructure and the Fire Department prior to the issuance of a building permit. <br /> The City Plan Commission voted 8-0 to recommend approval of this petition as presented at the <br /> October 2, 2008 hearing; the minutes of the meeting are attached. <br /> BACKGROUND: The subject site, zoned B-2 Commercial District and located at 3131 North Water <br /> Street, contains approximately 1.2 acres and is currently under redevelopment. <br /> The petitioner proposes to rezone the lot from B-2 Commercial District to a PD Planned Development <br /> District to allow the Express Care Center to keep the existing parking on the east side of the lot in <br /> order to provide the public more beneficial access to the medical facility. <br /> The proposed rezoning will allow the petitioner to build along a main corridor for the use of an <br /> Express Care Center. It will also allow for the facility to have ample main entrance parking. The site <br /> has not been utilized for a number of years and redevelopment of the �ite will enhance one of the <br /> City's main corridors. <br /> The rezoning of this property is compatible with the intent of the Comprehensive Plan and the Zoning <br /> Ordinance. In staff's opinion the rezoning of this property to PD Planned Development will not <br /> adversely affect the neighboring properties. <br /> POTENTIAL OBJECTION: There were no known objectors at the Plan Commission meeting. <br /> INPUT FROM OTHER SOURCES: N/A <br /> STAFF REFERENCE: Any additional questions may be forwarded to Stephanie Ashe at 424-2781 <br /> or at S�shel�i decaturil.�av. <br /> BUDGET/TIME IMPLICATIONS: None <br />
