RE: To amend Ord. No. 85-193-244, adopted Oct. 28, 1985, as previously amended by Ord. No. 88-210-196, adopted Sep. 12, 1988, Ord. No. 92-367-314, adopted Oct. 12, 1992, and Ord.

ORD. OR RES. No.
PURPOSE: To amend Ord. No. 85-193-244, adopted Oct. 28, 1985, as previously amended by Ord. No. 88-210-196, adopted Sep. 12, 1988, Ord. No. 92-367-314, adopted Oct. 12, 1992, and Ord. No. 2011-13-26, adopted Feb. 28, 2011, and Ord. No. 2017-248, adopted XXX XX, XXXX, which authorized the special use of the properties known as 1090 and 1100 German School Road for use as an elderly housing facility, to remove 1090 German School Road from the ordinance, upon certain terms and conditions.
REASON: The applicant has proposed a multi-family development at 1090 German School Road which will be authorized through a new special use permit ordinance. An special use permit pertaining to an elderly housing development at 1090 and 1100 German School Road is currently in place. An amendment to the existing special use permit ordinance is therefore required to remove 1090 German School Road.
RECOMMENDATION: In accordance with the requirements of the City Charter and the Zoning Ordinance, the City Planning Commission will review this request and make a recommendation to City Council. This item will be scheduled for consideration by the Commission at its February 5, 2018, meeting. A letter outlining the Commission’s recommendation will be forwarded to City Council following that meeting.
BACKGROUND: 1090 German School Road is located in the Jahnke neighborhood in the City’s Midlothian Planning District. The property is comprised of 133,294 SF, or 3.06 acres, and is currently unimproved. The density of the parcel if developed as proposed would be approximately 31 units per acre.
The City of Richmond’s current Land Use Plan designates a land use category for the subject property as Multi-family Medium Density. “Primary uses are multi-family dwellings at densities up to 20 units per acre. Includes day nurseries, adult day care and residential support uses such as schools, places of worship, neighborhood parks and recreation facilities, and limited public and semi-public uses. (City of Richmond Master Plan, p. 133).
The City’s Zoning Ordinance designates this property as R-3 (Single-family Residential). The property is also subject to an existing special use permit allowing elderly housing at 1090 and 1100 German School Road. The elderly housing development authorized at 1090 German School Road was not constructed. The existing special use permit ordinance pertaining to 1090 and 1100 German School Road will therefore be amended, as part of this request, to remove 1090 German School Road.
Adjacent and nearby properties are a combination the same R-3 Single-family Residential District with the R-43 Multi-family Residential District occupying the adjacent areas to the south and west. Multi-family land use predominates the immediate vicinity of the subject property.
FISCAL IMPACT / COST: The Department of Planning and Development Review does not anticipate any impact to the City’s budget for this or future fiscal years.
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS: Staff time for processing the request; preparation of draft ordinance; and publishing, mailing and posting of public notices.
