characteristics of the structure, location, and use history influenced the proposed list of permitted <br />uses and development standards. While the use list proposes to broaden the array of allowable <br />uses over what is currently allowed outright in residential zones, the minimum density <br />requirement has been eliminated to avoid infill that would not be compatible with the <br />surrounding neighborhood. Development standards have been borrowed from the R-2 and C-1 <br />zones for residential and nonresidential development, respectively. <br /> <br /> (3) Except for areas zoned S-H Historic Special Area zone, the area to be classified S <br /> Special Area includes at least ~ acre in area. <br /> <br />The subject property is proposed to be zoned S-H Historic Special Area Zones, and is thus <br />exempt from the ½ acre requirement described by this criterion. <br /> <br /> (4) The application of the zone to the properties proposed for inclusion in the S <br /> Special Area zone and the required provisions of a special area zone ordinance are <br /> consistent with the criteria required for approval of a zone change, according to EC <br /> 9.886.5 Zone Change Approval Criteria. <br /> <br />Compliance with the zone change criteria is outlined below. <br /> <br />Application of the Special Area Zone to the Site <br /> <br /> 9. 8865 Zone Change Approval Criteria. Approval o fa zone change application, <br /> including the designation of an overlay zone, shall not be approved unless it meets all of <br /> the following criteria: <br /> (1) The proposed change is consistent with applicable provisions of the Metro Plan. <br /> The written text of the Metro Plan shall take precedence over the Metro Plan diagram <br /> where apparent conflicts or inconsistencies exist. <br /> <br />Metro Plan Diagram <br /> <br />The Metro Plan diagram designates the property for Medium Density Residential/Mixed Uses. <br />However, the Metro Plan recognizes that up to 32% of residentially designated areas typically <br />accommodate nonresidential uses such as parks, schools, roads, churches, and neighborhood <br />commercial services. The Kaufman Senior Center is an example of a nonresidential use <br />appropriate within a residential area. The proposed Special Area Zone proposes residential and <br />limited non-residential uses, including office, educational and cultural uses, and certain small <br />scale commercial uses, in compliance with the Metro Plan diagram and Metro Plan policies as <br />detailed below. <br /> <br />Exhibit C - 2 <br /> <br /> <br />
