This decision changes the zoning from Commercial Limited (CL) to SP. The development is proposed as a mixed-use project that includes up to 150 residential units and 10,000 square feet of commercial space. The project aims to create an affordable, mixed-income community, revitalizing Clarksville Pike with ground-floor retail and enhanced pedestrian connectivity. The Specific Plan includes detailed design standards for building height, setbacks, open space, and pedestrian amenities, aligning with the Northwest Community Plan's goals for transit-oriented development. The previous CL zoning was intended for small-scale commercial and office uses, not supporting high-density mixed-use.
