RE: To rezone the properties known as 6814, 6907, 6927, 6937, 7000, and 7005
Jahnke Road from the R-1 and R-2 Single-Family Residential Districts to the RO-2 Residential-Office District.
ORD. OR RES. No.
PURPOSE: To rezone the properties known as 6814, 6907, 6927, 6937, 7000, and 7005 Jahnke Road from the R-1 and R-2 Single-Family Residential Districts to the RO-2 Residential-Office District.
REASON: The applicant is requesting to rezone the property to the RO-2 Residential Office District, which allows a greater mix of uses than the current R-1 and R-2 Single-Family Residential Districts.
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 December 7, 2020, meeting.
BACKGROUND: The properties known as 6814, 6907, 6927, 6937, 7000, and 7005 Jahnke Road consist of a combined 182,564 sq. ft., or 4.16 acres of improved, and some unimproved, parcels of land located between Old Jahnke and Jahnke Roads. The properties are located in the City’s Midlothian Planning District in the Jahnke Neighborhood.
The City of Richmond’s current Master Plan designates a future land use category for the subject properties as Transitional Office. Primary uses are low-to-medium intensity professional, business, and administrative offices, and medical and dental clinics that are compatible with adjacent residential uses and serve as separation between residential areas and nearby commercial or higher intensity land uses or features.
The City of Richmond’s draft Richmond 300 Master Plan designates these parcels as Neighborhood Mixed-Use. This category is characterized by existing or new highly-walkable urban neighborhoods that are predominantly residential with a small, but critical, percentage of parcels providing retail, office, personal service, and institutional uses.
Primary Uses for Neighborhood Mixed-Use areas include Single-family houses, accessory dwelling units, duplexes, small multi-family buildings (typically 3-10 units), and open space. Secondary Uses include large multifamily buildings (10+units), retail/office/personal service, institutional, cultural, and government.
Properties to the north and south are currently zoned R-1 and R-3 Single Family Residential, respectively. Directly adjacent towards the east, the property is currently zoned RO-1, Residential-Office District. A mix of commercial, institutional, and single and multi-family residential land uses are present in the vicinity of the 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.
BUDGET AMENDMENT NECESSARY: No
