Over time, the <br />demolition of homes has resulted in an increased number of vacant lots and population decline. <br />Most of the homes in the neighborhood date from the early 1900s. A mix of multi-unit residential <br />has developed on various sites throughout the neighborhood, most of which were single unit <br />structures than have been converted. <br />3.Most Desirable Use: <br />The most desirable use, at this time, is a range of low to medium density residential housing <br />types that will seamlessly fit the established character of the neighborhood. Institutional uses <br />would also be permitted. <br />4.Conservation of Property Values: <br />Allowing for the continued use of the property should help stabilize property values throughout <br />the area as opposed to the building being torn down. <br />5.Responsible Development and Growth: <br />It is responsible development and growth to allow for a variety of housing options within this <br />neighborhood. <br />Commitments: There are no commitment proposed at this time. <br />Analysis: Rezoning the site to U2 Urban Neighborhood 2 District will allow for the structure to continue <br />to be used as a multi-unit dwelling, which will provide increased housing options while not <br />drastically changing the established character of the neighborhood. <br />Recommendation: Based on information available prior to the public hearing, the staff recommends the <br />Plan Commission send the rezoning petition to the Common Council with a <br />favorable recommendation, subject to acquiring a Certificate of Rental Safety from <br />Code Enforcement. <br />Criteria for Decision Making <br />Rezoning <br />Analysis & Recommendation
