Commission backs rezoning of split-zoned parcel at 0 Ross Street to HDR
Summary
The commission recommended approval of Rezoning 26-03 to change a split-zoned 1.58-acre parcel at the corner of Roller Hotpe Veil Road and Ross Street to High Density Residential, finding the change consistent with the comprehensive plan and helpful to infill development.
The Burlington Planning & Zoning Commission on July 27 recommended that City Council approve Rezoning 26-03, a request to rezone a 1.58-acre parcel addressed as 0 Ross Street from split medium/high-density residential designations to High Density Residential (HDR).
A staff-supported motion described the rezoning as consistent with the comprehensive plan and as resolving conflicting development standards created by the parcel's split zoning. "The motion is based upon the consistency of the proposed rezoning with the comprehensive plan," a commission member moving the recommendation told the body before the motion was seconded and carried by roll call. The staff presentation identified the parcel at the southwestern corner of Roller Hotpe Veil Road and Ross Street and cited Alamance County tax identification number 140651.
No substantive written public objections were reported to staff; the applicant said mailed notices were sent and no citizen contacts had been received. The commission voted to recommend approval and staff noted the item will go to the city council (likely at the August 17 work session) for final action.
