The board's motion
Approval of the request to rezone the subject property to Office & Institutional - Transition based upon adjacent land use, consistency with the intent of the 2040 Comprehensive Plan and Future Land Use Map, and written support from adjacent neighbors. Additional Comments: Section 5.15.2 should be revised to allow OIT in the Commercial-Neighborhood districts, as it is a less intense classification. This amendment would better reflect surrounding conditions and the intent of the Comp Plan: 5.15.2 Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map Consistency The OI districts are permitted only in the following FLUM categories: Office/Institutional: OIE, OI, OIT OfficeTransition: OIT CommercialSuburban: OIE, OI, OIT Commercial-Neighborhood: OIT (ADD) Office and InstitutionalTransition (OIT) The OIT district supports the transition of properties originally developed for residential use into limited nonresidential uses. It is intended for areas where traffic increases, roadway modifications, or similar factors have reduced residential viability, creating a need for a transitional buffer between residential and nonresidential uses.
