BOARD/COMMISSION REVIEW:
Official notice for the public hearing for PZC 19-1-111 was published in the Daily Herald on December 30, 2019.
BACKGROUND:
The property is located on Lot 11 of the Cantore Place Lot 1 Resubdivision, part of the Cantore Place Planned Unit Development (PUD), which is located on the hard corner southeast of the intersection of Leverenz Road and Forgue Drive, and is zoned B2 (Community Shopping Center District) PUD. The property is approximately 1.25 acres and is currently vacant. It is located west of the Arbor Terrace senior housing assisted living facility, north of the retail buildings, and south of townhomes in the Windridge Unit 1 Subdivision across Leverenz Road.
In 2003, Ordinance #03-165 rezoned the 26 acre Cantore Place property from OCI to B2, and Ordinance #03-166 approved the Preliminary PUD for Cantore Place. The Cantore Place PUD listed land uses as: B2, ORI (Office Research and Light Industry) and R3 (Medium Density Multiple-family Residence). Since 2003, 9 of the 11 buildable lots have been developed with several office buildings, several retail buildings, a veterinary clinic, a bank, a car wash, a senior assisted living facility, and, most recently, a self-storage facility. The 2 remaining lots, including the subject property, have been vacant since the Preliminary PUD for Cantore Place was approved in 2003.
