Summary
The subject parcel is 16.759-acres of land located along the eastern extent of North Heatherwilde Boulevard south of New Meister Lane and North SH 45; generally southwest of the New Meister Lane and North Heatherwilde Boulevard intersection. The applicant is seeking to develop the land for a single-family condominium community consisting of detached homes as well as townhome style homes. The applicant has requested to rezone the property from General Business 1 (GB1), General Business 2 (GB2), and Light Industrial (LI) to Single-Family Mixed-Use (SF-MU) for the purpose of developing a single-family condominium community.
The comprehensive plan identifies the area for medium to high density residential development. The proposed rezoning is consistent with Goal 1 of the Land Use and Development Character Goals that identifies the supply, location, and type of housing will be diverse. The Single-Family Mixed-Use (SF-MU) zoning district allows for a variety of housing types and provides the opportunity for increased housing options in the area. The SF-MU zoning district will provide a transition from the commercial properties along North Heatherwilde Boulevard and the existing single-family subdivision to the north and west of the subject property.
