Evaluation
Yes
No
The IMPACT to the adjacent property owners and the surrounding community is reasonable, and the benefits of the rezoning outweigh any potential inconvenience or harm to the community.
REASONING: The impact to the surrounding community is reasonable, as the majority of the parcel is currently zoned the same as the requested district.
Yes
No
The requested zoning district is COMPATIBLE with the existing Land Use Classification.
REASONING: The requested zoning to Commercial is compatible with the overall land use classification of Employment Mixed Use. Employment Mixed Use areas are located along major thoroughfares
and include prime locations for economic development opportunities.
Yes
No
The proposal does ENHANCE or maintain the public health, safety and general welfare.
REASONING: The requested rezoning to Commercial would maintain or enhance the public health, safety, and general welfare due to the area’s existing commercial uses as well as the neighboring
commercially zoned parcels.
Yes
No
The request is for a SMALL SCALE REZONING and should be evaluated for reasonableness.
REASONING: Since the parcel is predominately zoned Commercial, as well as being are immediately adjacent to other Commercially zoned properties Small Scale rezoning does not need to
be considered.
Suggested Statement-of-Consistency (Staff concludes that…)
As stated in the evaluation, the requested rezoning to Commercial would not have an unreasonable impact on the surrounding community based the existing non-residentially zoned properties
within the area as well as compliance with the County’s Land Use Plan. Therefore, it is recommended that this rezoning request be APPROVED.
