Board approves duplex-friendly rezoning on Gibson Mill Road
Summary
The board voted unanimously to rezone a property on Gibson Mill Road from R1B to R3 to permit a duplex; planning staff said the change is consistent with the compact-neighborhood future land-use designation and the planning commission recommended approval.
The Board of Mayor and Aldermen approved an owner-requested rezoning along Gibson Mill Road, changing the parcel from R1B Residential to R3 Low-Density Apartment District to allow a duplex. Jessica McMurray presented the request, noting the future land-use designation favors compact living and the planning commission recommended approval based on compatibility with nearby character.
The board closed the public hearing with no speakers appearing and approved the ordinance on first reading by a unanimous vote. Staff said the zone permits two-family and low-density multifamily dwellings and that standards of review indicate the request would not adversely impact nearby properties.
