Rezone and master plan amendment at 116 East Edith Avenue
Discussed
Staff presented a request to rezone property at 116 East Edith Avenue (about 1200 South) from R-1/5,000 (Single Family Residential) to CC (Corridor Commercial) and change the Central Community future land use map from Low-Density Residential to Community Commercial. No development proposal has been submitted. Planning staff had recommended approval, but the Planning Commission forwarded a negative recommendation. The applicant said the lot has long been used as a car lot, that it would be maintained, and that Edith Avenue access would not be used. Members and staff noted that no house is or has been on the lot, and that tax records show commercial use.
