Staff Contact:
John Green, Current Planner I
Location:
West of the current terminus of E. Anamosa Street
Agenda Item Summary:
The applicant has submitted a Rezoning request to rezone three contiguous lots from Medium Density Residential District to General Commercial District. The subject property is located in the northeast corner of East Anamosa Street and East Philadelphia Street. The total acreage of the three lots is 6.43 acres. The City’s Future Land Use Plan currently lists two of the three existing lots as Urban Neighborhood, with the third lots listed as Mixed Use Commercial. The Urban Neighborhood designation does not identify General Commercial District as an appropriate zoning designation. However, City Staff has indicated that due to the existing and proposed land uses in the surrounding neighborhood, a staff sponsored amendment to the Future Land Use Plan is proposed to change the Future Land Use Designation from Urban Neighborhood to Mixed Use Commercial for the subject property. In particular, East Anamosa Street will serve as the divide between residential and commercial uses within the area. The resulting change in the Future Land Use Plan would allow for General Commercial District as an appropriate zoning district for the property. Therefore, the requested Rezone is in compliance with City Sponsored amendments to the Future Land Use Plan
