Planning & Zoning Board Work Session Minutes
[1020 Palmer Avenue] Project at 1020 Palmer Avenue involves a lot split and Comprehensive Plan Amendment. Discussions focused on policy changes, lot size, setbacks, building limitations, and the preservation of the historic James Gamble Rogers home (Merrywood). Staff proposed an alternative policy to preserve the home while allowing the lot split. The Board considered precedent, consistency with city policy, legal implications, and anticipated public input. Further review of setbacks, conceptual plans, and staff's alternative policy is planned. Historic designation would be required to preserve the house. The applicant's position on the staff proposal and public feedback will be considered before a final recommendation. [210 East Morse Boulevard] Redevelopment project at 210 East Morse Boulevard includes demolition of El Cortez apartments and construction of five townhomes fronting Morse Boulevard, with a synagogue and preschool behind on Knowles Avenue. Discussions covered site layout, parking, underground garage, rooftop deck, conditional use for three-story buildings, setback and impervious coverage variances, stormwater retention, and streetscape compatibility. Architectural concerns were raised regarding the synagogue's design, with the Board debating its scale, massing, materials, glazing, columns, domes, and overall compatibility. The Board will ask the applicant to explain architectural inspiration, consider design refinements before the public hearing, share feedback, and revisit revised plans. [1560 Orange Avenue] Conditional Use request for a restaurant and café at the Hub building, 1560 Orange Avenue. Discussions covered proposed operations, seating capacity, hours, outdoor improvements, building entrance redesign, and eligibility under office zoning due to exceeding parking requirements. Landscaping and buffering improvements for the site and adjacent parking lot, including park restoration and gateway sign replacement, were reviewed. Shared parking analysis, differences from a previous larger proposal, and compatibility with residential properties were discussed. Considerations included improving landscaping/buffering, limiting the parking lot across the street to office users, relying on valet parking on-site if needed, and monitoring parking/traffic impacts. A potential conflict of interest requiring a Board member recusal was noted.
