Re: Application for Zoning Amendment
Dear Mr. Richardson:
In follow up to our meeting on the 16'h, attached for review and consideration
are the following:
Application form requesting amendment to the Zoning Ordinance
for a 1.945 acre parcel of vacant land located in the 7500 block
of Brooks Road
2) Exhibit: 'A" -Location map
3) Exhibit "B'�-Survey drawing of the subject tract
4) Legal description of the subject tract
5) Application fee (check no. 7056) for $350. 00
The subject property is a heavily wooded tract located on the north side of
Brooks Road adjoining the Brentwood Goff Course. As discussed, the
applicant plans to extend Willow Bend Drive, a residential collector, to tie in
with Brooks Road and develop the property on either side (18 acres) into 15
estate sized lots for single family residences. The proposed plan is illustrated
on the attached survey drawing. The east line of the subject tract represents
the current dividing line between GC -MD and RM-H zoning. The intent of this
application is to expand the RM-H zoning approximately 150 feet west to allow
for development of two additional estate lots as shown on the survey. The
applicant/owner requests through submittal of the above, consideration to
amend the zoning of the subject tract from the current GC -MD designation to
RM-H as described in the referenced attachments.
