FILE: 1776-Z
STAFF REPORT
The Planning Manager recommends approval of this request.
Bryan H. Lee, the applicant, is requesting the rezoning of 19.301
acres of land currently owned by the YMCA in the 3600 Block of
Dowlen Road. The request includes 11.776 acres of GC-MD (General
Commercial-Multiple Family Dwelling) District, 2.839 acres of
GC-MD-2 (General Commercial-Multiple Family Dwelling-2) District
and 4.686 acres of RS (Residential Single Family Dwelling) District.
The RS and GC-MD-2 zoning would abut Barrington Heights.
Mr. Lee has been working with an architect to develop a concept plan
for the property (see attachment). This plan calls for 78,874 sq. ft.
of commercial uses. The bulk of the commercial would be located in
the northeast part of the property. Two commercial pad sites, facing
Dowlen, would be made available for sale. In the southeast corner of
the property, three 3,000 sq. ft. one story office buildings would be
built. The residential portion of the plan would consist of townhomes
and single family residential. The 1 - 1 2 story townhomes that
abut Barrington Heights would be oriented in an east-west direction
to lessen the impact on the backyards of houses in Barrington Heights.
The single family portion is expected to be a gated community.
In the GC-MD-2 portion of the subject property, specific use permits
would be required before any development could occur.
Exhibits are attached.
