Change in Law or Policy
The proposed map amendment will correct the inadvertent omission of certain properties from MAP2007-00101

Discussion
The proposed comprehensive map amendment is intended to add certain small areas of the City that were inadvertently excluded from the map amendment approved by the Mayor and Council as part of the comprehensive revisions to the zoning ordinance. Zoning map amendment MAP2007-00101 was approved for the standard 1 inch = 200 feet zoning maps, sheets A-1 through F-4. As it turns out, two small areas of the City are outside these grid areas, and need to be included within the zoned area of the City. The first area is a small corner of the Lakewood Country Club property at the intersection of Veirs Drive and Glen Mill Road. The second area includes a group of properties along Montrose Road between Tildenwood Drive and Montrose Village Terrace.

The proposed comprehensive map amendment is solely intended to correct the zoning map by including these areas. All other properties within the City will be reconfirmed in their zone as designated in the map amendment approved on December 15, 2008.

Note that the actual zoning on the affected properties will not change. All of them are in a residential zone now, and will retain the same zone under the proposed zoning. In the case of the Lakewood Country Club site, the new ordinance will redesignate the zone from R-E to R-400, but otherwise all of the zoning standards remain the same. The affected properties along Montrose Road will retain their current R-75 or R-90 zones.
