title
An ordinance to amend Title 17 of the Metropolitan Code of Laws, the Zoning Ordinance of The Metropolitan Government of Nashville and Davidson County, by changing from RS5 to RM20-A-NS zoning for properties located at 338 Whitsett Road and Whitsett Road (unnumbered), approximately 190 feet east of Nolensville Pike (0.39 acres), all of which is described herein (Proposal No. 2024Z-030PR-001).
body
WHEREAS, the proposed zoning district allows for new uses and more square footage to be built on this property than can currently be achieved; and
WHEREAS, the proposed zoning district allows for residential uses that are very likely to produce higher pedestrian activity than the current permitted uses, based on the Planning Department’s experience with the following: similar rezonings, the new residential activity that will be allowed on this site, and the locations of this rezoning near pedestrian amenities; and
WHEREAS, it has been determined by the Metropolitan Government that sidewalks at this location constitute critical infrastructure required to ensure the functionality of the site and therefore conditioning the rezoning of this property is appropriate; and
WHEREAS, because of the change in uses and allowed intensity, there is a clear nexus between the change in zoning and the need for sidewalks to be constructed along public streets by the developer for use by future residents and users of the site.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ENACTED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE METROPOLITAN GOVERNMENT OF NASHVILLE AND DAVIDSON COUNTY:
