Rezoning request for 209 Shipyard Road taken to second reading
Summary
Petitioner Robert McCaucher asked to rezone 209 Shipyard Road from R-1E (single‑family) to B-1E (business limited) to legalize an existing nonconforming landscape business; the Metropolitan Planning Commission recommended alternate approval and the board deferred action to the second reading.
The board heard a first reading of a rezoning petition for a parcel at 209 Shipyard Road. Petitioner Robert McCaucher requested rezoning from R‑1E (one‑family residential) to B‑1E (business limited) to bring an existing nonconforming landscape business into zoning compliance.
The Metropolitan Planning Commission’s file number was listed as Z‑0825‑000573 with PIN 1051702015; the MPC recommended alternate approval for District 1. No members of the public were present to speak on the item during the meeting, and commissioners indicated they would take the petition up at the second reading.
Why it matters: Rezoning would change the allowable uses on the parcel and formalize a business operation currently nonconforming under residential zoning.
Ending: The matter remains pending; the board scheduled the item for consideration at the second reading.
