' �-;:`, A° a �' It should also be noted that this property was once part • ,��, '; , . `, of what was known as Brick House Pond. Part of the ' • �� ; • �•"� '•- property is designated as a wetland by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. While this site does not have a DNR Floodplain designation, the site is known to have drainage issues associated with a former wetland/pond area. Staff Finding/Opinion On its face, Staff does not take issue with the rezoning application, as it would provide infill housing that matches the character of neighboring houses. Staff does question, however, the develop-ability of this parcel given the existing drainage/wetlands and access issues. While subdivision layout, including access and drainage, would have to be addressed in a future primary plat application, the Plan Commission could choose to take these overriding issues into consideration at this time. It may be that more information is needed regarding access and drainage before a decision is made to rezone. Criteria for Consideration 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 one of the following options: Favorable Recommendation, Unfavorable recommendation, or No Recommendation. Page 1 of 8 PC-24-18 Recommended motion "I make a motion to forward the rezoning request PC-24-18 to the Jeffersonville City Council with [insert recommendation]as presented to the Plan Commission on July 30, 2024. Staff Analysis for Change in Zoning The following is a summary of staff's analysis of the proposed development as it relates to the land use and development policies of the Comprehensive Plan and Unified Development Ordinance: Current Zoning and UDO Zoning District Intent Current Zoning The subject property is shown in the zoning map to the right. The property is zoned R1 (Single :+ • "� ,041� �. • Family Residential — Large Lot). Adjoining properties are zoned R3 (Single Family Residential — Small Lot) to the North, R2 (Single Family Residential — Medium Lot) to the East and South, and PR (Parks and Recreation) to the . West. 1111k. / District Intent: Existing The R1 (Single Family Residential — Large Lot) District is intended to provide a land use category for single " family homes on large lots. The provisions that regulate this land use district should protect, promote and maintain existing residential areas in the City of Jeffersonville and may also be used for future housing growth. The Jeffersonville's Plan Commission and Board of Zoning Appeals should strive to protect this district from conflicting land-uses such as industrial and large-scale commercial uses as well as nonfamily oriented businesses. Article 6 of this ordinance includes additional options and incentives for the development of subdivisions that preserve natural open spaces, floodplains, etc. that exist on site and/or dedicate and construct public park facilities. District Intent: Proposed The R3 (Single Family Residential — Small Lot) District is intended to provide a land use category for single family homes on smaller-sized lots. The provisions that regulate this land use district should protect, promote and maintain existing residential areas in the City of Jeffersonville and may also be used for future housing growth. The Jeffersonville's Plan Commission and Board of Zoning Appeals should strive to protect this district from conflicting land-uses such as industrial and large-scale commercial uses as well as nonfamily oriented businesses. Article 6 of this ordinance includes additional options and incentives for the development of subdivisions that preserve natural open spaces, floodplains, etc. that exist on site and/or dedicate and construct public park facilities. Future Land Use Map and Planning Districts This property has a Future Land Use classification of Residential Neighborhood. These areas are primarily composed of single-family residences and should be preserved as such. Limited multi-family uses may be allowed if they are small-scale, such as duplexes or triplexes and located along primary road corridors including major and minor arterials and collector streets. Care should be taken to integrate any non-single-family projects into the neighborhoods through architectural scale, design, and Page 2 of 8 PC-24-18 adequate buffers. Some areas within this classification, especially in the northwestern parts of the city, contain large tracts of undeveloped land. When developed these areas should favor single-family subdivisions and only incorporate multi-family where immediately adjacent to a minor arterial or major collector street. Commercial, industrial, and large-scale institutional uses should be discouraged. ♦, ♦. v) 4 ,/,.47 . S IS lit s i V tNiti , /`I � � i Commercial Corridors e 4,0W, 4 ‘ ,1,,-' I.

The following is description of this Planning District from the Comprehensive Plan. Planning District 3: Riverfront The Riverfront Planning District consists primarily of single-family residential developments built on tree-lined streets between 1900 and 1960. The neighborhoods that constitute this district retain some semblance of a street grid, although it was not as rigidly planned as the Downtown. With the exception of the Jeffboat site and some minor areas along 8th Street, the neighborhood should be seen as stable. Major changes to uses and intensity of uses should be discouraged in the stable areas. The following goals are established for the Riverfront Planning District: • Support small-scale residential infill development throughout the District Page 3 of 8 PC-24-18 • Promote neighborhood-friendly development and densification along 8th Street and Market Street corridors and ensure that new development is pedestrian-friendly with minimal setbacks and parking located to the side and rear of buildings • Support historic preservation and adaptive reuse of existing historic structures • Ensure that any new developments or building additions within existing residential neighborhoods are appropriate in elements such as scale, form, and setbacks • Preserve and maintain the unique development pattern along Utica Pike • Support goals and objectives of the Jeffboat redevelopment Additional Notes • None Attachments 1.
