DESCRIPTION & CONDITIONS In June, 1988, Mr. and Mrs. Terry submitted a request to rezone several lots in.the Quay Subdivision, consisting of approximately one acre, from RM -6, Multi -Family Residential District (up to 6 units/acre) to OCR, Office, Commercial and Residential District. For the reason explained in this item, the staff felt that the beneficial impacts of this request were substantial enough to warrant additional acreage to be included. For this reason, the planning staff has joined with the Terrys to submit a joint request for all of Blocks 1 and 2 of the Quay Subdivision. - The Terrys own a triangular parcel on U.S. 1 which abuts the east side of the Quay Subdivision. They intend to utilize their property in Block 2 to increase the size and developability of the triangular parcel which is zoned CL, Limited Commercial. The staff's intent in joining this request is to promote redevelopment on these two blocks, make a nonconforming post office conforming to the zoning, and to halt the further strip commercialization of the. U.S. 1/Old Dixie Highway Corridor with more intense commercial uses. On July 28, 1988, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted unanimously to recommend approval of this request.
