Page4-1 Appl 17-42P, Kochanski Zoning Amendment Public Hearing 1-9-18 Planning Department Report 1. Request to modify Section 4.1.1 Permitted Uses in Industrial and Commercial zones to add the use `Duplex' by Special Exception in the General Commercial zone; and add Section 7.5.1.A.b to allow duplex units in Commercial zones under certain criteria 2. The applicant's proposal would allow duplexes when residential housing is contiguous to or across the street. The lots these units are proposed on would have to meet the minimum requirements of the General Commercial zone— 30,000 sf, 100 feet of frontage with a 50 foot front yard setback. This lot size and setback is similar to what is required in an A-30 zone. Proposals for this type of housing would be limited to secondary roads and not allowed on Sullivan Ave or John Fitch Boulevard. 3. I have marked up the proposal with blue — suggesting some word changes as well limiting the lot coverage for this use to 15% which is what we typically see in single family zones. 4. The current Town Plan of Conservation and Development under the Residential section encourages flexibility in meeting emerging housing needs and updates to the zoning regulations that are compatible with the surrounding neighborhood. The housing section also talks about protecting established neighborhoods. 5. The Capitol Region Council of Governments has reviewed the amendment as required and reports that they find no apparent conflict with regional plans and policies or the concerns of neighboring towns. If this application is approved, in addition to wording changes submitted, Table 4.1.1A should reflect that Duplex's are allowed by Special Exception (not site plan) w0�1�V . i �py1N Sf4 t a To� O-P s,OU& V&U&ot 9 � w� 1540 SULLIVAN AVENUE • SOUTH WINDSOR, CT 06074 r�Osox•co TELEPHONE (860) 644-2511 CERTIFIED MAIL 7014 2120 0003 3214 3894 January 16,2018 Craig Kochanski 2 Stepping Stone Drive Broad Brook, CT 06016 Dear Mr. Kochanski: Re: Appl. 17-42P, Kochanski Duplex Zoning Text Amendment We are pleased to advise you that at its meeting on January 9,2018 the Planning and Zoning Commission voted to approve your request for a Zoning Text Amendment,the following with modifications: 1.
