Staff Recommendation: Approval
Urban Design Commission Hearing Date: April 23, 2020
Background:
The subject property is located at the northwest corner of Carroll Street and Azalea Avenue. The site is
currently partially developed with single family homes and partially undeveloped. The developer plans to
redevelop the site with a multifamily development. The site is currently zoned "A-5" One Family and "MU-
1" Low Intensity Mixed -Use. Surrounding properties are zoned "UR" Urban Residential, "MU-1" Low
Intensity Mixed -Use, Planned Development (PD) 956, which has a base zoning of "UR" Urban Residential,
and PD 574 which has a base zoning of "MU-2" High Intensity Mixed -Use.
There is a zoning case currently in process to rezone the property to a PD with a base zoning of "MU-1"
Low Intensity Mixed -Use. The site is located adjacent to the West Seventh Urban Village, and a portion
of the site is located in the Cultural District Growth Center.
A majority of the surrounding area has been rezoned is recent years to Mixed -Use and Urban residential
districts, which is in compliance with the Comprehensive Plan's Future Land Use designations of the area,
as well as the adjacency to the urban village and growth center. The new zoning accommodates new
mixed -use and urban residential developments that facilitate the creation of well -designed, walkable,
compact neighborhoods.

The original waiver requests were heard by the Urban Design Commission on April 23,d and
recommended for denial. The recommendation for a height bonus was denied based on concerns for the
amount of public interaction at the ground floor. The waiver to the screening and location of services
areas was denied as the applicant provided the commission with an alternative that would have the cans
located in the garage.
§ 4.1300 LOW INTENSITY MIXED -USE ("MU-1") DISTRICT.
b) Administrative Review Requirements
Any zoning proposal requesting a Planned Development "PD" zoning district or "CUP" conditional use
permit that includes waivers from any mixed -use design standard must receive a recommendation from
the Urban Design Commission prior to a public hearing by the zoning commission or the city council.
The applicant had originally requested two waivers — one for the location of the service (dumpster) area,
and one for a height bonus while not providing 100% of the required parking within the parking structure.
After discussion with the neighborhood the applicant revised their application to move the dumpster area
and added the leasing office to the ground floor. This reconfiguration left ho them losing ten spaces.
During the zoning commission the applicant stated that this project was over parked for what the
residents usually need for parking.
