for Zoning Map Amendment Application (Z24-16)
Request by Cindee Wolf with Design Solutions, applicant, on behalf of Tidewater Investment
Company, INC, property owner, to rezone one parcel totaling approximately 7.79 acres of land located
at 5000 N College Road from (CZD) CB, Commercial to (CZD) B-2, Regional Business district for General
Retail Sales, Business Service Center, and other limited uses.
1. This is a public hearing. We will hear a presentation from staff. Then the applicant and any
opponents will each be allowed 15 minutes for their presentation and an additional 5
minutes for rebuttal.
2. Conduct Hearing, as follows:
a. Staff presentation

c. Opponent’s presentation (up to 15 minutes)
d. Applicant’s rebuttal (up to 5 minutes)
e. Opponent’s rebuttal (up to 5 minutes)
f. Staff review of any additional conditions
3. Close the public hearing
4. Board discussion
5. Before we proceed with the vote, I would like to invite the applicant to the podium. Based
on the Board discussion and items presented during the public hearing, would you like
withdraw your petition or proceed with a vote?
6. Vote on the application. The motion should include a statement saying how the change is,
or is not, consistent with the land use plan and why approval or denial of the rezoning
request is reasonable and in the public interest.
Example Motion for Approval
I move to APPROVE of the proposed rezoning to a (CZD) B-2, Regional Business district. I find
it to be CONSISTENT with the purposes and intent of the Comprehensive Plan because the
proposed uses are in line with the place type recommendations. I also find APPROVAL of the
rezoning request is reasonable and in the public interest because the proposed district
would provide a number of commercial services for nearby residents, includes relatively low
traffic generators, and is located on an arterial road.
Proposed Conditions:
1. Within the 3,600 square foot building at the front of the property closest to N. College
Road, uses are limited to the following: business service center, contractor office, offices
for private business and professional activities, personal services, general, instructional
services & studios, and retail sales, general.
2. Within the remaining four (4) buildings totaling 33,300 square feet uses will be limited to
offices for private business and professional activities and for contractor offices.
3. Building height will be limited to one (1) story and a maximum of 30-feet.
Approval is subject to the applicant signing an agreement acknowledging the applicant’s consent
to all listed conditions. If the applicant does not provide a signed agreement within seven (7)
business days from the date of approval, then the rezoning application approval is null and void.
Alternative Motion for DENIAL (if based on information presented at the public hearing or other
consideration beyond the scope of staff review, the board finds denial appropriate.)
I move to DENY the proposed rezoning to a (CZD) B-2, Regional Business district. I find it to
be CONSISTENT with the purposes and intent of the Comprehensive Plan because proposed
limited commercial uses are generally encouraged in the Community Mixed Use and General
Residential place types and would serve nearby existing and future residential
developments. I also find DENIAL of the rezoning request is reasonable and in the public
interest because the proposed project would have a larger impact on the adjacent residential
properties than what is allowed under current zoning.
Alternative Motion for Approval/Denial:
I move to [Approve/Deny] of the proposed rezoning to a conditional B-2, Regional Business
district. I find it to be [Consistent/Inconsistent] with the purposes and intent of the
Comprehensive Plan because [insert reasons]
