DECISION ON #REZ23001: Recommendation to Town Council: Approval
(1) Evidence of substantial compliance with the purpose of the Development Code has been

Community Housing- recognized has an important use within the Plan;

the purposes of this rezoning;
(4) Compatibility with surrounding land uses is reasonable, as this area is comprised of a mix of
residential and neighborhood commercial uses;
(5) The proposed rezoning is justified by changed or changing conditions in the character of the area
proposed to be rezoned, especially as Community Housing is an established need;
(6) There are adequate facilities available to serve development for the type and scope suggested
by the proposed zone compared to the existing zoning, that will not affect the existing level of
services available currently;
(7) The rezoning is consistent with the stated purpose of the proposed zoning district: Community
Housing;

noise, stormwater management, wildlife and vegetation, and any impacts will be substantially
mitigated through future development applications;

the subject tract;

result in greater intensity of land use or increased demands on public facilities and infrastructure;
