Public Hearing: Proposed Neighborhood Conservation District for the Coker Hills Neighborhood |
|
date: |
September 17, 2007 |
PURPOSE
Tonight, the Council considers a proposed rezoning to create a Neighborhood Conservation District for the Coker Hills Neighborhood. The purpose of this cover memorandum is to forward my preliminary recommendation to the Council.
MANAGER’S PRELIMINARY RECOMMENDATION
I believe creating a Neighborhood Conservation District for the Coker Hills neighborhood is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and the Land Use Management Ordinance. My preliminary recommendation is that the Council enact the attached Ordinance, approving the proposed Zoning Atlas Amendment.
Following tonight’s Hearing, we will complete a Recommended Neighborhood Conservation District Plan for the Coker Hills Neighborhood. The Neighborhood Conservation District Plan would detail the guidelines for the Neighborhood Conservation District and the boundary. If approved by the Town Council, the Plan would be incorporated as a part of the Land Use Management Ordinance, and would be subject to modification in the same manner as any other amendment to the Zoning Atlas.
The Plan will be presented when the Hearing is continued on October 8, 2007.
