ORD. OR RES. No.
PURPOSE: To rezone the properties known as 1903 Chamberlayne Parkway and 1900 Roane Street from the M-1 Light Industrial District to the B-7 Mixed-Use Business District
REASON: The applicant is requesting to rezone the combined 3.713 acres from the M-1 Light Industrial District to the B-7 Mixed-Use District in order to redevelop the property in a manner consistent with the Richmond 300 master plan.
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 18, 2021 meeting.
BACKGROUND: The combined 3.713 acres are located at the intersection of Chamberlayne Avenue and Tazewell Street. The properties are improved with an 11,866 square foot structure and paved parking. The subject properties and most surrounding properties are located in the M-1 Light Industrial District. Recent land use cases in the area have authorized mixed uses.
The Richmond 300 Master Plan recommends Industrial Mixed-Uses for the property which are described as formerly traditional industrial areas that are transitioning to mixed-use because of their proximity to growing neighborhoods and changes in market conditions. These areas may still retain some light industrial uses.
Primary Uses: Retail/office/personal service, multi-family residential, cultural, and open space.
Secondary Uses: Institutional and government.
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.
