32 WEST ORANGE STREET - RESIDENTIAL MIXED USE OVERLAY

Mr. Himes explained that this property is owned by the Village and has been used for office purposes and is zoned “Office District”. He said Larry Shibley is unable to perform his end of the contract with the Village to redevelop the land on West Orange Street so Robert Vitt has submitted a plan to the Village for the redevelopment of this parcel and adjoining parcels of land. This redevelopment plan proposes a residential use on the subject property and the Village desires to amend the Zoning Map to provide for Residential Mixed Use zoning on the subject property, which zoning shall overlay the Office District zoning, allowing users pursuant to either chapter of the zoning code. Mr. Himes explained the extensive background of this area on West Orange Street. He said this was referred to the Planning and Zoning Commission for their recommendation. There was lengthy discussion including variances and parking issues. No action was taken.
