RECOMMENDATION:
Recommended Action
COMMUNITY COUNCIL: Approval.
PLANNING COMMISSION: Denial.
PLANNING STAFF: Denial.
STAFF ANALYSIS: The majority of the parcels in neighborhood appear to be 60-feet wide and are zoned R-75. Nevertheless, the rezoning of this single parcel R-60 would be inconsistent with the surrounding zoning and may affect the stability of the existing community. Therefore, it is the recommendation of Staff that this application be “Denied”.
PLANNING COMMISSION VOTE: Denial 8-0-0. Vivian Moore moved, Jon West seconded for Denial, per Staff recommendation. Edward Patton was not present for this vote.
COMMUNITY COUNCIL VOTE/RECOMMENDATION: Approval 8-1-0. Board discussed the proposed density and the layout of the development.
