PURPOSE: To amend Ord. No. 2005-347-2006-13, adopted Jan. 9, 2006, which conditionally rezoned the property known as 2101 East Franklin Street from the M-1 Light Industrial District to the B-5 Central Business District (Conditional), upon certain proffered conditions, to revise the proffered conditions.
REASON: The applicant has requested to amend the conditions of a previously approved rezoning ordinance which rezoned the property from M-1 Light Industrial to the B-5 Central Business District. The applicant wishes to allow for residential uses on the ground floor of the existing building and has amended the proffer statement to permit ground floor residential uses.
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 October 1, 2018, meeting. A letter outlining the Commission’s recommendation will be forwarded to City Council following that meeting.
BACKGROUND: The property consists of a 2,600 SF, .06 acre parcel, of land currently improved with a historic structure and located in the East Planning District of the Shockoe Bottom neighborhood. The property is also within the Shockoe Bottom Station Area of the Pulse Corridor Plan.
The Pulse Corridor Plan designates the subject property for neighborhood mixed-use land use. Neighborhood mixed-use areas are cohesive districts that provide a mix of uses, but with a larger amount of residential uses than other mixed-use districts. They are an urban, walkable environment with limited neighborhood-oriented uses incorporated along key commercial corridors and at corner sites (p. xii).
A mix of B-5, B-5C and M-1 zoning districts are present in the vicinity. A mix of office, commercial, mixed use, industrial, vacant, and residential land uses are present in the vicinity.
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.
