In a recent government meeting, officials discussed the proposed rezoning of a site for Northbrook Storage, transitioning from a corporate business district to a special purpose conditional district. The rezoning request, which includes a detailed staff report, aims to accommodate a storage facility while considering the surrounding developments and residential areas.
The site, highlighted on a zoning map, is bordered by various zoning classifications, including transitional residential, corporate business, and general residential. The proposed storage facility is situated approximately 382 feet from the nearest residential property, with a buffer of tree preservation areas and stormwater management systems in between.
The meeting emphasized the importance of this rezoning in relation to a previous 1815 rezoning that affected the Northbrook subdivision. This earlier decision split the district, leaving some parcels on Sanford Road as corporate business while designating the southeastern area for transitional residential development.
The proposed site plan indicates that the storage facility will occupy a designated blue area, while adjacent parcels will fall under the special purpose conditional district zoning, allowing for specific uses with certain exclusions. The discussions highlighted the careful consideration of community impact and zoning regulations as the project moves forward.
