explanation
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT STAFF REPORT
This petition is a request to rezone approximately 7.13 acres from MU-2 (Mixed Use Medium Intensity) and BUS (General Business) to PD (Planned Development) to allow the renovation of an existing 11-story residential building and construction of a new 14-story residential building and associated recreation facilities located at 2306 Southwest 13th Street. This petition is submitted concurrently with a land use change petition that will allow the requested density increase under this PD rezoning. The rezoning will enable density and height increases that will facilitate revitalization of the Southwest 13th Street corridor through implementation of unique design criteria that will address size, scale, density and other complexities best accomplished through a Planned Development, due to unique existing features associated with this project site.
The Plan Board heard the petition and recommended approval.
Public notice was published in the Gainesville Sun on May 30, 2006. Letters were mailed to surrounding property owners on May 31, 2006. The Plan Board held a public hearing June 15, 2006.
