The Louisville Metro Planning Commission has recommended the approval of a rezoning from R-5 Single-Family Residential to OR-1 Office Residential for a 0.60-acre property at 1933 Wrocklage Avenue. The proposal includes a waiver of LDC 10.2.4 to reduce the required 10 ft. landscape buffer area along the southern property line and a Detailed District Development plan with binding elements. The applicant intends to use the existing structure on the property for a law office, with no new construction proposed. The staff report found the zoning change consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and the requested waiver justified due to the existing building's location 5 ft. from the southern property line, making a 10 ft. buffer impossible without reducing the structure's size. A 5 ft. landscape buffer area and a 6 ft. tall privacy screen will be maintained along the southern property line.
