CITY COUNCIL ACTION
Council Meeting Date: March 8, 2021
Item No: 21-111
Responsible Dept: Planning
Action Requested: Ordinance — District Map Change Map/Lot: 46/52
Amending Chapter 165, Land Development Code, District Map, by changing the Parcel of Land addressed at
315 Broadway from Urban Residence I (URD -1) to Urban Residence 2 (URD -2)
Summary
This Ordinance would amend the Land Development Code by changing zoning at 315 Broadway to allow for
the construction of a 2 family unit. The applicant is Nattapong Kongsuriya of Hampden, Maine.
Due to the close proximity to the hospital, the Comprehensive Plan anticipated this area to become
Government and Institutional Service District. However, expansion plans at the hospital have not occurred in
that location.
The City Council has a goal to create more housing units where appropriate. Many other residential dwellings
in this area house more than one unit. This change would be in keeping with the Council goal and the existing
development pattern.

Memorandum

Re: Planning Board Recommendation March 16, 2021
Map Amendment Change 315 Broadway
Please accept this memorandum as the recommendation from the Planning Board for the noted item.
The Planning Board considered this item in a noticed public hearing on March 16, 2021.
The meeting was conducted using the city’s Zoom account.
Representing the applicant was Jim Kiser, PE.
The Board discussed potential buildout of the parcel. The lot is small such that with dimensional
requirements, a two-family would likely be the most units that could be placed there.
Planning Officer Krieg commented that the 2012 Comprehensive Plan indicates the area for
institutional. It is likely at the time that the city assumed the hospital would be expanding into this
neighborhood. As the Board knows, the hospital expanded in a different direction to create a
separate campus to accommodate its expansion.
The Board passed a motion, by roll call, made by Member Perkins and Seconded by Member
Meagher, to recommend to the City Council that the said zoning district change ought to pass. All
members voted yes.
