Rezone property from IS (Institutional) to R3 (High �S

Case Summary ' /744444:', e`7'`%,� R
d
The applicant requests a rezoning for an approximately ,
6,000 sq. ft. property located at 2005 Woodland Court. " ,
The property currently contains a single-family home `
that may, at one time, have been part of the church ,,
property next door (which would explain the Institutional ,, ,,. ,a�-
zoning). The current owners of the home are looking to .1 -, 4.
build a new carport on the property, but are not able to ,, '� '�
do so under the rules set forth in the IS zone district.
Staff Finding
While the subject property is currently zoned IS, the existing structure on the property is clearly a
single-family home (built in the 40's) and has been used as such for some time. The proposed R3
zoning better represents the current use of the property and would allow the applicant to construct the
desired carport without need for a variance. The rezoning does not significantly impact any of the
adjacent properties and does not seem to be in conflict with the goals set forth in the Comprehensive
Plan.
Criteria for Consideration of Rezoning
The Jeffersonville Zoning Ordinance and Indiana State Statute IC 36-7-4-603 outlines that the following
shall be considered when the Plan Commission is reviewing a rezoning request:
• The Comprehensive Plan;
• Current conditions and character of structures and uses in each district;
• The most desirable use for which the land in each district is adapted;
• The conservation of property values throughout the jurisdiction; and
• Responsible development and growth.
Required Action
Make a motion to forward this rezoning to the Jeffersonville City Council with a FAVORABLE
recommendation, UNFAVORABLE recommendation, or NO recommendation

Staff Analysis for Change in Zoning
The following is a summary of staffs analysis of the proposed rezoning as it relates to the land use and
development policies of the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Ordinance:
Comprehensive Plan and Planning Districts
The property to be rezoned falls within the Mixed-Use— Commercial/Residential zoning classification in
the Future Land Use Map shown below. The Mixed Use— Commercial/Residential zoning classification
(added in 2017) denotes areas of the City that, due to their location could be developed with a
combination of residential, commercial, and institutional uses. The following definition is from the
Comprehensive Plan:
Mixed-Use
This use blends a combination of residential, commercial, cultural, institutional, or industrial uses, or
allows solely commercial uses. It can be one building, an urban, suburban, or village development.
The blend should be physically integrated and functionally related to create a center or community.
This use typically creates a greater variety in housing, reduced distances between housing,
workplaces and amenities, more compact development, stronger neighborhood character, and should
be pedestrian and bicycle friendly.

Future Land Use Plan
On the Comprehensive plan's Planning Districts Map, the property to be rezoned falls within the
Traditional Marketplace district as shown on the next page. Properties nearby fall into the Suburban
Neighborhood District. As planning districts can be seen as flexible along the edges, this property could
be seen as falling into either of these districts.

Planning Districts Map
The following are descriptions of the two districts from the Comprehensive Plan.
Traditional Marketplace Corridors
Traditional Marketplace Corridors are located along major roadways where the pattern of development
is distinguished by a mixture of low to medium intensity uses such as neighborhood-serving shops,
small specialty shops, restaurants, and services. The Traditional Marketplace Corridor was expanded
along 10th Street to encourage a form that is more pedestrian oriented with development that has little
or no setbacks. The uses in Traditional Marketplace Corridors frequently have apartments or offices on
the second story. Buildings generally have little or no setback, roughly uniform heights and a compatible
building style. Buildings are oriented toward the street and typically have 2-4 stories. New development
and redevelopment should respect the predominant rhythm, massing and spacing of existing buildings.
Suburban Neighborhoods
These neighborhoods are typically characterized by a range of low to moderately dense residential
uses that blend compatibly into the existing landscape and neighborhood areas. High-density uses will
be limited in scope to minor or major arterials and to areas that have limited impact on the low to
moderately dense residential areas. The Suburban Neighborhoods district will contain diverse housing
choices for differing ages and incomes.
Current Zoning
While the subject property is currently zoned IS
the structure on the property is
(institutional), existing P P Y Subject
clearly a single family home (built in the 40's) and has Property ✓ '
been used as such for some time. It may have been part
of the Church property (i.e. a parsons house) at one time
which could explain why it is zoned IS.
Adjacent properties are zoned Commercial, Institutional
or Multi-family. The image to the right illustrates the .
zoning within the area.
