(CD 11) Strategic Capital Investment LLC / Gregory Dominguez; 2521 Race Street, (0.40 acres) From: "D" High Density Multifamily To: "E" Neighborhood Commercial (Recommended for Approval by the Zoning Commission)

Summary

This item concerns a zoning map amendment for the property at 2521 Race Street (0.404 acres). The request is to change the zoning designation from "D" High Density Multifamily to "E" Neighborhood Commercial. The proposed use is for a plumbing company's office, including administrative functions, a dispatch area, and limited storage. The property was formerly an apartment building that was demolished in 2019. The Zoning Commission recommended approval with an 11-0 vote. The proposed change is considered compatible with surrounding land uses and consistent with the Comprehensive Plan's designation of Mixed-Use and its policies encouraging infill development and revitalization of commercial districts.

Citizen Impact

This zoning change allows a plumbing business office to operate at 2521 Race Street. Residents may see improved property values and neighborhood appeal due to aesthetic upgrades and the presence of a local business, with minimal disruption as operations are low-impact and primarily office-based.
