Narrative of Rezoning Application Sl to C <br /> Brookton Drive and Ireland Road <br /> III. Other Considerations <br /> The rezoning of the subject property should be considered based on the Comprehensive Plan (as <br /> discussed above) and other planning documents, but should also be based on the following: <br /> A. Current conditions and the character of current structures and uses in each district <br /> As discussed above, the subject property is located within the "Regional Commercial Node"and the <br /> "South Destination Commercial Sector". <br /> B. The most desirable use for which the land in each district is adapted <br /> It is unlikely that the subject property will be further developed in a residential manner. The <br /> construction of a new residential dwelling at the corner of Brookton Drive and Ireland Road would <br /> place a new residence on a high-volume street adjacent to a high-volume commercial land use. <br /> C. The conservation of property values through the jurisdiction <br /> The nature of the proposed development of the subject property is a buffer between non-compatible <br /> uses, as follows: <br /> 1. The activities will occur on the south side of the building, along Ireland Road. The building itself <br /> and the landscaping and fencing along the north side of the building will serve as a buffer from <br /> those activities to the residential land uses. <br /> 2. The proposed land use does not generate the type of traffic that is generated by adjacent high- <br /> volume land uses, such as high-turnover restaurants and gasoline stations. This land use will be a <br /> low-impact development use and very low-volume traffic generator. <br /> 3. The proposed land use is also limited in nature and does not operate in the evenings, overnight, <br /> or weekends. <br /> D. Responsible growth and development <br /> The proposed development of the subject property should be located on a major arterial street, and <br /> Ireland Road is such a street. <br /> April 18, 2022 Page 3 of 3 <br />
