Before the Council tonight are three applications:

 

The purpose of this cover memorandum is to forward the Town Manager’s recommendations to the Council for the above applications.  Please refer to the three accompanying memorandums for additional information on this matter.

 

MANAGER’S PRELIMINARY RECOMMENDATION

 

I have reviewed and discussed the key issues with Town staff. Based on the information in the record to date, I believe that the Council could make the findings required to approve: 1) the application for a text amendment to the Land Use Management Ordinance; 2) the request for a Zoning Atlas Amendment; and 3) the application for a Special Use Permit.

 

The Town Manager’s preliminary recommendation is that the Council: 1) enact Ordinance A to amend the text of the Land Use Management Ordinance, to create a Town Center-3 (TC-3) zoning district; 2) enact Ordinance A, approving the request for a Zoning Atlas Amendment to rezone the proposed Greenbridge site from Town Center-2 (TC-2) to Town Center-3 (TC-3); and 3) adopt Revised Resolution A, approving the Greenbridge Special Use Permit application.
