Smith / Justin S. Light Site Location: 7100 block John T. White Road, 1000 block Williams Road Acreage: 12.26 acres Proposed Use: Church Sanctuary Request: From: "ER" Neighborhood Commercial Restricted To: "CF" Community Facilities Land Use Compatibility: Requested change is compatible. Comprehensive Plan Consistency: Requested change is consistent (technical inconsistency). Staff Recommendation: Approval Background: The subject property is located at the southwest corner of John T White Road and Williams Road. This site is currently vacant and is zoned "ER" Neighborhood Commercial Restricted. The applicant is proposing to rezone the property to "CF" Community Facilities to allow construction of a new church building. Place of Worship is an allowed land use in any standard zoning district. However, the "ER" Neighborhood Commercial Restricted district imposes specific restrictions on building and tenant size. Specifically, building size is limited to a maximum of 10,000 square feet and tenant size is limited to 5,000 square feet. Therefore, the applicant is requesting a zoning change to "CF" Community Facilities to accommodate the proposed church use and allow flexibility in building design. The "CF" Community Facilities zoning district is intended to accommodate institutional and related uses that are established in response to the health, safety, educational and welfare needs of a neighborhood, community or major sector of the city. Allowed land uses for this district include public facilities such as churches, government offices, health services, public safety, colleges and schools.

Land Use Compatibility The applicant is requesting to change the zoning of this property from "ER" Neighborhood Commercial Restricted to "CF" Community Facilities to allow development of a new church building. Property to the north, across John T White Road, is zoned "A-5" One -Family and is developed with single-family residences. There are existing multifamily apartment complexes to the west of this site. Property to the south is zoned "A-5" One -Family and is developed with single-family dwellings on larger lots, with a portion zoned Planned Development PD 124 for a landscaping maintenance company. To the west, there is a childcare facility on property zoned "CF" Community Facilities and additional single-family dwellings on larger lots. John T White Elementary School is located approximately 500 feet east of this site, and there are additional institutional and retail uses continuing along John T White Road. The proposed zoning is compatible with surrounding land uses. 2. Comprehensive Plan Consistency — Eastside The 2021 Comprehensive Plan currently designates the subject property as "Single -Family Residential" use on the Future Land Use Map. Property directly to the east, across Williams Road, is designated for "Institutional" use as well as a portion of property to the north across John T White Road. "CF" Community Facilities zoning is designed to include services that support the health, safety, educational and welfare needs of a neighborhood and would serve as an appropriate transitional use between John T White Road, which is designated as an arterial roadway on the City's Master Thoroughfare Plan, and surrounding single-family zoning. The proposed zoning aligns with the following policies of the Comprehensive Plan: • Locate schools, parks and neighborhood commercial uses within walking distance of most homes to maximize walkable, bikeable and transit connectivity with all surrounding residential areas. • Promote appropriate infill development of vacant lots within developed areas, which will efficiently utilize existing infrastructure. Based on conformance with the policies stated above, the proposed zoning is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan (technical inconsistency). Attachments: • Area Zoning Map with 300 ft.
