MEMORANDUM
DATE: June 4, 2014
TO: The Honorable City Council
FROM: David G. Gould, Planning Officer
SUBJECT: Amending Zoning Ordinance
2630 Broadway from Rural Residence and Agricultural
District (RR&A) to Contract Urban Industry District (UID) -
Council Ordinance 14-193.
Please be advised that the Planning Board at its meeting on June 3, 2014, held a
Public Hearing on the above zone change request.
Chip Haskell of CES, represented American Iron and Metal (AIM). He noted that
the applicant was before the Board previously with a similar contract zone change
request. In response to concerns of the Board, the applicant reapplied with a new
Contract Zone Change request and is proposing a reduced area to be rezoned (which
utilizes an existing brook as a boundary line) and has submitted a modified set of
contract conditions. The modification of the contract zone change condition would
allow a small fill extension of the wet pond.
Mr. Mallar asked why the applicant was only proposing a 50 foot buffer along the
east side of the property and no buffer on the westerly side. Mr. Haskell indicated that
there are railroad tracks on the westerly side. Mr. Mallar also asked about whether or
not the applicant had received approval to construct the wet pond. Mr. Haskell
indicated that they had received Minor Site Plan Revision approval.
Mr. Bolin noted that at the last meeting, the Planning Board had concerns about
the proposed contract zone change request and indicated that they felt that the area
requested to be changed was too great. The Board also had concerns about the scope
of the proposed buffer and that this use not be expanded on the lot. He said that the
applicant had made a good faith effort to address the Board's concerns.
Mr. Kenney said that he didn't feel any need to require an additional buffer along
the railroad track.
Planning Officer Gould indicated that the differences from the previous
application included the language addition in the second condition to add (existing
impedance from the wet pond fill slope notwithstanding', and the reduction in the area
proposed to be rezoned. The current application uses an existing brook to define the
proposed zoning boundary. Mr. Gould indicated that it was up to the Board to
determine if this application was what the Board had envisioned.
14-193
May 28, 2014 2
There were no other proponents or opponents to the rezoning request.
Based on its consistency with the Comprehensive Plan and the other adjacent
properties, Mr. Kenney made a motion to recommend approval of the proposed
Contract Zone Change as contained in C.O. # 14-193. Mr. Boothby seconded the
motion, which passed by a vote of four in favor and one opposed.
