Commission approves rezoning of parks and recreation site at 5070 Ooltewah Ringgold Road to MUTC
Summary
The commission unanimously rezoned a roughly half-acre parcel currently used for the Parks and Recreation building from Agriculture to MUTC (Mixed-Use Town Center) to align zoning with existing use and surrounding development.
The Collegedale City Planning Commission unanimously approved a rezoning to change a roughly half-acre parcel at 5070 Ooltewah Ringgold Road from Agriculture to MUTC (Mixed-Use Town Center).
Staff explained the parcel contains the city’s Parks and Recreation building (described in the transcript as the former Medic 5 building) and that the rezoning is largely a housekeeping measure identified when the city sought a sign permit and discovered the current agricultural zoning no longer reflected the site’s use. Staff recommended the change to bring the property into alignment with surrounding MUTC zoning.
Staff outlined surrounding uses as agriculture to the north and east and MUTC and multifamily to the south and west, and gave the applicable setbacks on MUTC as 0 feet front and side and 30 feet rear. After brief discussion the commission moved, seconded and approved the rezoning on a roll-call vote: Commissioner Johnson, Member Friesen, Member Lehman, Member Moody, Vice Chairman Givens and Chairwoman Gray all voted yes.
No public speakers or opposing testimony were recorded on the rezoning in the transcript. The staff recommendation and the commission vote finalize the city’s action to reclassify the parcel to match its current public use.
