MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor Ivan Allen, Jr.
FROM: Collier Gladin
SUBJECT: Rezoning Petition #Z-66-259-F
Mt. Gilead Road Extension
Continental Colony has applied for rezoning for apartment use (A-1)
of approximately 84 acres south of Greenbriar Shopping Center. The
application is scheduled for public hearing on January 19 and has
received a favorable recommendation of the Joint Planning Board and
our staff.
This petition was filed at approximately this time last year along
with several others also for apartment use in this area. Since a large
portion of the area around Greenbriar Shopping Center is undeveloped
our staff has spent considerable time studying this area in order to
determine the appropriate land uses and community facilities necessary
as further development takes place.
On the basis of our studies, we feel that apartment use of this tract,
for which zoning is requested, is justifiable on the basis of its
relationship to Greenbriar Shopping Center; the Circumferential and the
need for apartment units in this area,
We have worked with the developers and site planners of this project
to provide what we feel is adequate open space adjacent to the single-
family area east of this tract. We feel we have achieved a far more
desirable plan than was proposed last year. We understand, however,
that there is still considerable opposition to apartments by area
residents.
