The City Plan Commission voted <br /> 7-0 to recommend approval of this petition at the August 4,2016 meeting;the minutes of the meeting are attached. <br /> BACKGROUND: <br /> The subject site located at 1215, 1225, 1227 and 1234 West Cerro Gordo Street is currently zoned R-6 Multiple Dwelling District <br /> and consists of approximately 0.6 acres. The portion of the subject site located North of West Cerro Gordo Street is an asphalt <br /> parking lot that serves Marquis and the portion of the subject site located South of West Cerro Gordo Street is vacant. <br /> The petitioner proposes to rezone the subject site from R-6 Multiple Dwelling District to M-1 Intense Commercial/Light Industrial <br /> District that would allow for all those uses permitted in the M-1 Intense Commercial/Light Industrial District. <br /> Rezoning the site from R-6 Multiple Dwelling District to M-1 Intense Commercial/Light Industrial District should not create any <br /> adverse effects on the adjacent properties or the City as a whole as a majority of the area to the north and west are already zoned <br /> M-1 Intense Commercial/Light Industrial District. <br /> The adjacent zoning includes M-1 Intense Commercial/Light Industrial District to the north,east and west and R-6 Multiple <br /> Dwelling District to the south and east. The Macon County and Decatur Comprehensive Plan shows this area as Retail which is <br /> partially consistent with the M-1 Intense Commercial/Light Industrial District in that this district is designed to allow retail and <br /> intense commercial uses. The existing uses to the north and west are compatible with the permitted uses in the M-1 Intense <br /> Commercial/Light Industrial District. <br /> POTENTIAL OBJECTIONS: There were no known objectors at the Plan Commission Meeting. <br /> INPUT FROM OTHER SOURCES: <br /> The petition has been reviewed by the City's Technical Review Committee;Planning,Engineering and Fire. <br /> STAFF REFERENCE: Any additional questions may be forwarded to Suzan Stickle at 424-2786 or at sstickle@decaturil.gov. <br /> BUDGET/TIME IMPLICATIONS: None <br /> ATTACHMENTS: <br /> Description Type <br /> Ordinance Ordinance <br /> Supporting Documentation Backup klatcrial <br /> https://decatur.novusagenda.com/AgendaWeb/CoverSheet.aspx?ItemID=798 9/2/2016 <br />
