The subject property is located on the edge of a residential neighborhood. The area to the
north is zoned CF Community Facility District and is developed with a nursing home and
related off street parking. The areas to the south and west of the subject property are zoned
RC 1 Residence Conservation District, and is developed with single family homes.The area
to the east across McLean Boulevard is zoned RC2 Residence Conservation District and is

between the adjoining residential district McLean Boulevard, which has business zoning
further north and south.
G. Zoning District Standard. The suitability of the subject property for the intended zoning
district with respect to conformance to the provisions for the purpose and intent, and the

regulations in keeping with a planned residential environment, subject to the provisions of
Chapter 19.60, Planned Developments. A PRB zoning district is most similar to,but may
depart from the standard requirements of the RB Residence Business District.
The purpose and intent of the provision of planned developments is to accommodate unique
development situations. For planned development districts,the planned development should
demonstrate the following characteristics:
1. An opportunity to realize a development of demonstrated need with respect to the AIN
types of environment available to the public that would not be possible under the
strict application of the other chapters of this title;

. 2. A creative approach to the use of land and related improvements resulting in better
design and construction of aesthetic amenities; and

wetlands, and vegetation.

conformance to the provision for the purpose and intent, and the location and size of a PRB
Planned Residence Business District.
The applicant is not requesting any departures from the standard conditions of the RB

Comprehensive Plan Standard.
The subject property Y is desi gnated as"Low Density Residential 2.1 -4
dwelling units per net
acre)" by the Comprehensive Plan and Design Guidelines (2005). The Low Density
Residential designation offers neighborhoods access to collector roads, access to water and
sanitary sewer systems, and proximity to public safety services. The provision of park and
open space is encourages to provide opportunities for recreation and access to pedestrian and
bicycle trail systems. Other uses allowed in this category may include neighborhood
commercial centers,churches and school in locations deemed appropriate by the City.While
not in conformance with this designation, the adaptive reuse of the property for offices
provides a compatible transition between the adjoining residential district and McLean
Boulevard, which has business zoning further north and south.
I. Natural Preservation Standard. The suitability of the subject property for the intended
planned development with respect to the preservation of all significant natural features
including topography, watercourses, wetlands, and vegetation.

district ordinance controlling the use and development of the subject property.The planned
development ordinance is intended to prevent undue detrimental influence on the proposed
