Title
Rezoning Petition: 2017-034 by Saussy Burbank, LLC
Body
Location: Approximately 1.6 acres located on the west side of Suttle Avenue between Wilkinson Boulevard and Isom Street. (Council District 3 - Mayfield)
Current Zoning: O-1 (office)

Zoning Committee Recommendation:
The Zoning Committee voted 6-0 to recommend APPROVAL of this petition as modified.
Staff Recommendation:
Staff agrees with the recommendation of the Zoning Committee.
Statement of Consistency:
• The Zoning Committee found this petition to be inconsistent with the Bryant Park Land Use & Streetscape Plan, based on information from the staff analysis and the public hearing, and because:
• The plan recommends office uses for the site as amended by rezoning petition 2013-045.
• However, this petition was found to be reasonable and in the public interest, based on information from the staff analysis and the public hearing, and because:
• The Bryant Park Land Use & Streetscape Plan originally recommended a mix of residential, office, and retail for the area where the site is located, which is the former Radiator Specialty industrial site; and
• The office land use recommendation was a result of rezoning petition 2013-045 which allowed for all uses in the O-1 (office) district on this site and on abutting property; and
• The proposed development of townhomes on this site will support the creation of a district with a mix of residential, office and retail and will complement the County owned office building across Suttle Avenue and the charter school located north of the site; and
• The proposed development is also designed to support walkability in the new multi-use district, with the residential units located near the public sidewalk and directly accessible from the sidewalk.
