COF Project Number: 6682
Applicant: Greg Gamble, Gamble Design Collaborative
Owner: Ira Blonder
Background/Staff Comments
The applicant is seeking the rezoning of 5.35 acres from the Specific Development (SD-R 5.03) District to the Neighborhood Commercial (NC) District. The subject property was previously part of the Lockwood Glen PUD Subdivision, with 16 townhouses planned for the site.
The proposed use as a children's educational facility, the Discovery Center, is supported as a civic and institutional use within Envision Franklin, and is permitted within the Neighborhood Commercial Zoning District. The rezoning does not include a development plan, as site details will be analyzed at the required site plan stage.
Project Considerations
Project Considerations are not conditions of this approval, but are intended to highlight issues that should be considered in the overall site design or may be required when more detailed plans are submitted for review. These items are not meant to be exhaustive and all City requirements and ordinances must be met with each plan submittal.
During the site plan process the applicant shall provide a schematic of how the sanitary sewer would serve the property. This is to ensure the property can be served by sewer.
