Staff Recommendation
RECOMMEND that City Council APPROVE LI (Light Industrial) One Year Plan designation for parcels 081GB013-016 only. (See attached MPC staff recommendation map.)
Light industrial uses are appropriate south of the alley. If light industrial uses extend north to Atlantic Ave., as requested, it would allow incompatible light industrial uses to be placed directly across the street from and adjacent to residential uses, interrupting the residential development pattern established along this section of Atlantic Ave. If the Planning Commission is inclined to recommend rezoning of the entire site, as requested, the LI plan designation would have to be approved for the entire site and staff would recommend I-1 zoning, rather than the requested I-3.
Disposition Summary
LI (Light Industrial) One Year Plan designation for the entire site. The Planning Commission noted that LI for the entire site would be appropriate in allowing consideration of I-1 zoning, which is preferable over I-3. LI
