Recommendation

The MPC staff recommends APPROVAL of the request to rezone the the property located at 3609 Ogeechee Road (PINs 1-0706-01-013 and 014) from BC & M classifications to a B classification.



Summary of Variances

Existing

a.                   Intent of the BC District:  The purpose of this district shall be to provide community shopping facilities consisting of a wide variety of sales and service facilities at locations that will be accessible to a market area containing from 35,000 to 70,000 people.

 

b.                  Intent of the M District: The purpose of this district shall be to create and protect areas in which nuisance producing manufacturing activities and nonmanufacturing uses closely related to such activities will be permitted.

Proposed

                   a. Intent of the  (B) district is “to create and protect areas in which heavy commercial and certain industrial-like activities are permitted.” The proposed rezoning is very consistent with the overall character of the area and its most likely future development pattern. If approved, this rezoning would allow for the reuse of a long abandoned structure which serves as the cornerstone of a busy commercial corridor.
