Commission backs rezoning of 20 E. Prospect St. to allow 5–10 residential units near Mazie Gable Elementary
Summary
The Planning Commission recommended rezoning 20 E. Prospect Street from Industrial to Residential Town to enable development of roughly 5–10 residential units, citing the lot’s small size and residential surroundings adjacent to Mazie Gable Elementary School.
The Red Lion Borough Planning Commission on July 15 recommended that the borough rezone 20 E. Prospect Street from Industrial to Residential Town to permit conversion of the .75‑acre property into approximately five to ten residential units.
Attorney Andrea Anderson represented SLCL Anderson Partnership and confirmed she had authority to act for the applicant. The parcel sits about 254 feet from Church Lane and borders residences and Mazie Gable Elementary School. The applicant told the commission industrial uses are impractical on the lot and that residential zoning better fits the neighborhood context.
Commission members reviewed permitted uses in Residential Town and Residential Outlying zones and, noting the site’s size and context, concluded rezoning was appropriate. Ms. Beth Nidam moved to recommend approval of rezoning 20 E. Prospect Street from Industrial to Residential Town; Mrs. Cindy Barley seconded and the motion carried unanimously.
The rezoning recommendation will be forwarded to the appropriate borough body for any final legislative action required to change the zoning map.
