DEPARTMENT: Development Services Department
DEPARTMENT HEAD: Roderick J. Sanchez
COUNCIL DISTRICTS IMPACTED: 2
SUBJECT: Plan Amendment 14026
SUMMARY:
An Ordinance amending the future land use plan contained in the Dignowity Hill Neighborhood Plan, a component of the Comprehensive Master Plan of the City, by changing the future land use of approximately 1.2020 acres of land out of NCB 584 located at 301, 305, 309, 313, 315, 319, 323, and 327 North Olive Street from Low Density Residential to Low Density Mixed Use land use.
The Department recommends approval. Low Density Mixed Use is consistent with the established pattern of uses in the area. Expanding the Low Density Mixed Use land use classification to further east, where the subject property is located, is consistent with the overall character of this small mixed-use block. This location has high-degree of accessibility due to the established grid street pattern in the area. Further, providing parking spaces for the Carver Cultural Center is consistent with Objective 1.2 of the Dignowity Hill Neighborhood Plan, which states the community's desire to provide parking at community centers.
