Commission recommends rezoning of vacant lot at 1984 Forest Ave to R-2 multifamily
Summary
Planning staff recommended and commissioners unanimously voted to forward a rezoning request for 1984 Forest Ave from R-1 to R-2 to City Council; no members of the public spoke on the item.
The City of North Charleston Planning Commission unanimously recommended that City Council consider rezoning 1984 Forest Avenue (CMS 4661200211) from R-1 single-family residential to R-2 multifamily residential.
Planning staff said the subject parcel is a cleared, vacant lot in an area developed with a mix of single-family and multifamily housing and lies near a principal transportation corridor. Staff recommended R-2 zoning as consistent with the comprehensive plan’s mixed-use and transit-oriented development objectives.
No members of the public signed up to speak on the item. Commissioners moved to recommend approval, and the motion passed unanimously; the item will be forwarded to the mayor and City Council with the next public input opportunity at the Public Safety Committee meeting on August 20.
The commission’s action was advisory; final rezoning decisions will be made by City Council following additional public hearings.
