Public Hearing - Zoning Request - Z20-010 - Rezoning from FC to LC for the use as a professional office - 0.25 acres - Land Lot 375 - 726 Windy Hill Road - Omokhodion Medical Services
Body
ISSUE AND BACKGROUND:
Omokhodion Medical Services is requesting a rezoning from FC (Future Commercial) to LC (Limited Commercial) for the ability to use the existing building as a professional office. The subject property is zoned FC; however, it has been used commercially most recently as a hair salon (as a non-conforming use). The property is occupied by an existing structure that will remain. The applicant is requesting to rezone the property to LC to formalize how the property has historically been used. The Planning Board recommended approval by a vote of 7-0 at the September 14, 2020 meeting.
RECOMMENDATION / REQUESTED ACTION: Community Development has reviewed the proposed development against the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance with respect to the use as a professional office. The proposed development meets all the zoning requirements for a professional office. Community Development Staff is supportive of the change in zoning from the non-conforming zoning of FC to LC. Community Development recommends approval of the rezoning from FC to LC at 726 Windy Hill Road.
