A (One Family Dwelling) District
1963 to 1990
R-1 (Low Density Residential) District
1990 to Present
R-4 (Single Family Residential) District
 
STAFF COMMENTS:
While the proposed request does not align with the Comprehensive Plan Designation of the property, the current request to rezone the property to P-1 (Parking) District would provide a transition from the more intensive commercial zoning to east to the less intensive residential zoning to the west and therefore staff does not object. A zoning of P-1 would also limit the use of the property to parking and, as a result, restrict more intensive uses.   
 
ZONING COMMISSION ACTION:
The Zoning Commission found that the request met the Findings of Fact requirements and VOTED 7 to 0 to APPROVE.
 
FINANCIAL IMPACT:  N/A
 
NEIGHBORHOOD CONCERNS:  N/A
