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 there are
several nonresidential uses in this area.
Yes No The requested zoning district is COMPATIBLE with the existing Land Use Classification.
REASONING: The requested zoning is compatible with the existing Land Use
classification of Employments Mixed Use. This area is also within a Compact Mixed Use
development node. These two designations highlight growing areas of the County that
could include locations for employment and economic development opportunities, as
well as have access to major thoroughfares and public utilities.
STAFF REPORT Page 5 of 6
Yes No The proposal does ENHANCE or maintain the public health, safety and general welfare.
REASONING: The requested rezoning to Industrial would maintain the public health,
safety, and general welfare as the proposed zoning district will allow for uses in a
similar manner as the area’s existing development trends.
Yes No The request is for a SMALL SCALE REZONING and should be evaluated for
reasonableness.
REASONING: Since this parcel is adjacent to the same zoning district, this application
does not need to be considered for a Small Scale rezoning.
Suggested Statement-of-Consistency (Staff concludes that…)
As stated in the evaluation, the requested rezoning to Industrial would not have an unreasonable impact
on the surrounding community based on the nonresidential uses and zoning districts in this area as well as
compliance with the County’s Land Use Plan. Therefore, it is recommended that this rezoning request be
APPROVED.
