Rezone from "C-4" to 110-1"

0.21 acres +
Existing Use: Duplex (Nonconforming)
SURROUNDING LAND USE AND ZONING:
North - Industrial, Zoned "C-4"
South - Vacant, Zoned "C-3"
East - Multifamily, Zoned "C-4"
West - Commercial, Zoned "C-4"
STAFF ANALYSIS:
This request is to rezone the lot from "C-4" to "0-1" to
make an existing duplex conforming. The "C-4" district does
not allow any residential uses. "O-1" was chosen because it
does provide for a better mix of office and residential uses
to a maximum density as per the "R-5" district. The owners
are hoping at some point in the future to possibly add a
third unit or have some office space along with one or two
residential units. Staff sees no problems with the "O-1"
rezoning and supports the request.
This type of rezoning action in the downtown area west of
Broadway is quite common as reflected by the accompanying
zoning sketch. The existing "C-4" was a conversion from the
old Zoning Ordinance.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of "O-1" as filed.
PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION:
The applicant was present. There were no objectors. The
Planning Commission voted to recommend approval of the
request as filed. The vote: 9 ayes, 0 noes and 2 absent.
