PACHECO, DIRECTOR TITLE AN ORDINANCE CHANGING ZONING RESTRICTIONS FROM 1 -2, LIGHT INDUSTRIAL TO B -4, REGIONAL BUSINESS DISTRICT, COVERING A PARCEL OF LAND GENERALLY LOCATED AT THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF 3 RD STREET AND GREENWOOD STREET ISSUE Shall City Council approve a request to rezone the property from 1 -2, Light Industrial to B-4, Regional Business District, to facilitate commercial redevelopment for the property located at the corner of 3` Street and Greenwood Street? The Planning and Zoning Commission, at their March 12, 2008 regular meeting, voted 7-0 to recommend approval. BACKGROUND The applicant is requesting the Zoning Map Amendment to facilitate commercial redevelopment for the property located on the corner of 3` Street and Greenwood Street. According to the State Board of Land Commissioners, the current industrial zoning is outdated and would not promote compatible development with the surrounding area. The immediate area is a mixture of business and industrial zoned properties. The Historic Arkansas River Walk is located approximately two blocks south of the site and a large B-4 Zone District is located a block to the north. It is the contention of the Board that future development and redevelopment of the neighborhood will focus on commercial land uses, therefore the area has changed to a degree that it is in the public's interest to rezone as a means to encourage redevelopment. FINANCIAL IMPACT None.
