(Multi Family Residential), Case No. ZC 16 -07
Action Requested
Recommend, by motion, approval of the zone change for PID 75- 134 -2303, changing the zoning from
C -2 (Office District) to R -4 (Multi - Family Residential).
Background /Discussion
Pat Briggs, owner of the property located at 75- 134 -2303, has requested a zone change which would
allow future development for aMulti- Family Residential facility. The property is currently zoned C -2
(Office District) which would not allow residential uses. The applicant has not submitted a site plan and is
only seeking a rezoning at this time.
Applicable Regulations
In reviewing a proposed amendment, consideration shall be given to existing conditions within the area directly and indirectly
affected by the proposal, the conservation of property values, the use to which the property affected is being devoted at the time,
and relevant provisions, if any, in the land use plan.
The comprehensive plan refers to the Mississippi Connections Plan for guidance. Within that plan, the
guidance for areas along Jackson Avenue and Lion's Park includes incorporation of high density housing
options. The zone change achieves the desires of the comprehensive plan by increasing housing
opportunities near Lion's Park.
The surrounding land uses include Lion's Park to the west, vacant land to the north, single - family uses to
the east, and commercial and industrial uses to the south. The proposed change does not adversely affect
surrounding properties.
Financial Impact
None
Statutory Review Period
Per State Statute 15.99 the required 60 day review period ends on December 23, 2016
