PARTICIPATION
sent to Sandpiper, Twin Lakes, Westbrook, Sewer District #
147, Twin Lakes, Campus Place, Kensington Place, Birchwood,
Westwood, and Pennebrook.
BACKGROUND
As shown on the two Plan Amendment sheets, the original
application was for a tract of land containing a total of 4.19±
acres which included the tract that fronts on to Colonel Glen
(1.13± acres) and lots 5-22 of block 22 of Euclid Place
Addition (3.06±acres). Staff believes the change to Office is
appropriate only on the 1.13 acre tract facing Colonel Glen
Road.
This area is included in the John Barrow Neighborhood Area
Plan that was adopted in June 1996. In the Policy Plans' section
on Business And Commercial Goal states that "To enhance the
climate directed towards encouraging new businesses and
commercial establishments to locate in the area as well as
retention of existing businesses." Office, on the tract facing
Colonel Glen, can act as a transition to the heavier commercial
BACKGROUND I nature of Asher Avenue and fulfill one of the goals to bring
CONTINUED new bushiness into the area.
The Plan also states to "determine design standards for new
construction of single, two and multiple family housing in the
area." The Euclid Place Addition tracts should be held for
development of housing stock in accordance with the Plan.
Weldon Street has been platted to the east.
The property is currently zoned R-3 and is approximately 1.13±
acres in size. To the north, south, and west are areas shown as
Single Family on the Land Use Plan and zoned R-2 and R-3.
The majority of the homes are to the northeast. Along Colonel
Glenn, are scattered homes and businesses. Directly abutting
the property to the east is Green Memorial Baptist Church
shown as Public Institutional on the Plan. To the southeast, is
the intersection of Asher, Colonel Glenn and Stagecoach Road.
Starting at this intersection and continuing up Asher, there are
several businesses shown as either Neighborhood Commercial
or Commercial on the Plan. These are zoned either C-3, C-4 or
O-3.
Colonel Glenn is shown as a Principal Arterial on the plan and
is currently built as a two lane rural road without curb and
gutter.
