TO: Planning Board Members

FROM: Kenneth A. Mix, Planning and Community Development Coordinator

SUBJECT: Zone Change – 111 Chestnut Street

DATE: April 29, 2014

Request: To change the zoning classification of 111 Chestnut Street, parcel 14-13-227, from Residence A to Neighborhood Business

Applicant: Sphere Holdings, LLC

Owner: Susan Burker

SEQRA: Unlisted

County review: Not required

Comments: The applicant is requesting this zone change in order to allow commercial development of the parcel at the corner of Washington and Chestnut streets. Specifically, they wish to construct a ~4,000 square foot restaurant with a drive-through at this location.

The subject parcel is currently zoned Residence A and is occupied by a single-family residence. The neighboring lot to the east is zoned Neighborhood Business, and is currently occupied by an automobile service station. The applicant plans to combine the two lots and demolish both structures.

Surrounding land uses are a mix of residential and commercial. This includes a second service station, a gas station, a dentist, a church, and several single-family houses.

The city’s Land Use Plan designates this area for “neighborhood business” use.

We have received some correspondence in opposition of the change, attached herewith.
