Rezoning request for 309 Pollock Street to Cedar Street mixed‑use presented to planning board
Summary
The Planning Board heard a rezoning and future land‑use map amendment request to reclassify 309 Pollock Street from R8 to Cedar Street Mixed Use (CSMU); staff noted adjacency to existing CSMU parcels and described dimensional comparisons between zoning districts.
Planning staff presented a rezoning and future land‑use amendment request for 309 Pollock Street, a vacant quarter‑acre parcel, asking the board to consider reclassifying the lot from R8 residential to Cedar Street Mixed Use (CSMU). Staff said the requested change would align the lot with adjacent CSMU parcels and reviewed lot width, setback and buffer differences between R8 and CSMU design standards.
Staff cautioned that the site is an interior lot (not a corner parcel) and that any commercial or mixed‑use development adjacent to residential parcels would require appropriate buffers under the CSMU standards. The board heard the presentation; further analysis and public hearing scheduling are expected as the application proceeds through the formal rezoning process.
