Title

Appl. #PL2016-166 - REZONING from TNZ to PO - First Baptist Church, 2 NE Douglas St; First Baptist Church, applicant

 

Body

Issue/Request:

The applicant proposes to rezone the approximately 3.13-acre site located at 2 NE Douglas St. from TNZ (Transitional Neighborhood Zone) to PO (Planned Office).  The property is developed with a church.  No additional development or redevelopment of the site is proposed as part the rezoning request.  The request for rezoning solely stems from the applicant’s proposal to replace the existing monument sign along NE Douglas St. with a new monument sign that has an electronic message board.  Electronic message board monument signs are not permitted under the existing TNZ zoning, but are allowed under the proposed PO zoning.

 

Recommendation

Recommendation: Staff recommends APPROVAL of the rezoning.
