Rezone and master plan amendment at 1583 East Stratford Avenue
Discussed
Planners described a request to rezone the parcel from RMF-35 to CN (Neighborhood Commercial) and amend the Sugar House master plan map from medium-density residential to neighborhood business. The Planning Commission had recommended against the original proposal because it removed six residential units; the revised plan keeps the six condominium units and adds a rear office building, and staff said it meets standards. A development agreement would keep the units. The developer's representative said the owner wants to expand a business across the street. Council Member Puy said he was concerned the plan did not meet the master plan's intent. Council Member Mano recused himself from the discussion, citing a conflict of interest. Council Member Wharton called a straw poll to return the application to the Planning Commission for further review and public comment, which was unanimously supported by those present.
- Current zone → proposed: RMF-35 → CN
- Planning Commission: negative recommendation on original proposal
