Staff Recommendation:
Staff agrees with the recommendation of the Zoning Committee.
Statement of Consistency:
• The Zoning Committee found this petition to be consistent with the Central District Plan and consistent for increase in density with the General Development Policies, based on information from the staff analysis and the public hearing, and because:
• The plan recommends low density residential uses for the subject site.
• Therefore, 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 subject property is adjacent to and across from single family homes along Wickford Place and is located within the Wilmore Historic District; and
• The proposed development will add three additional homes, for a total of four homes on individual lots, along Wickford Place; and
• The proposed residential density of 11.4 dwelling units per acre provides a transition between the moderate density along Worthington Avenue and the low density along West Boulevard; and
• The proposed setback matches the setback of the previous building and is compatible with other setbacks along Wickford Place; and
• The proposed development improves the site with a planting strip and sidewalk which will improve the pedestrian experience.
