This petition rezones a 0.51-acre parcel on Craig Avenue from Neighborhood 1-A (N1-A) to Neighborhood 1-C (N1-C). It would allow all by-right and prescribed uses in the N1-C district on a site currently developed with a single-family home. The change provides a slight increase in permissible density and adjusts dimensional standards, such as reduced minimum lot sizes and widths. It creates a graduated transition between the lower-intensity N1-A district and adjacent higher-density multifamily districts (R-12MF(CD) & UR-2(CD)). The 2040 Policy Map recommends a Neighborhood 1 place type at this location, consistent with the requested zoning. The site sits within a one-mile walk of two activity centers at Monroe/Sharon Amity and Sharon Amity/Randolph, and is served by multiple transit stops. Future residents will have convenient access to shopping, dining, and services without heavy car dependence. The petition advances the 10-Minute Neighborhoods goal of the 2040 Comprehensive Plan. Similar N1-C entitlements exist on nearby parcels. The Zoning Committee found the request reasonable, consistent, and in the public interest.
