Title
Public Hearing: Application #PL2022-159 - Rezoning from CP-2 to PI and Preliminary Development Plan - 950 NE Pollard Street; Engineering Solutions, LLC, applicant.
Body
Issue/Request:
The applicant proposes to rezone the subject property from CP-2 to PI and includes a preliminary development plan for a proposed 9,750 sq. ft. office/warehouse building on the 1.31-acre site. A specific user has yet to be determined for the site.
A modification is sought to not require construction of a 54’ segment of the required sidewalk along NE Pollard St from the eastern driveway to the eastern property boundary. The applicant further requests that payment in lieu of construction of said sidewalk portion also not be required. Staff supports not requiring construction of the sidewalk segment, but does not support waiving payment in lieu of construction.
