Motion directing the Department of City Development to initiate a zoning map amendment to correct the mixed zoning of the property located at 1993 S. Muskego Avenue (8th Aldermanic District) and assign a single zoning designation, Local Business (LB2), to this property.
Analysis
This motion directs the Department of City Development to initiate a zoning map amendment to assign a single zoning designation, Local Business (LB2), to the property located at 1993 S. Muskego Avenue.
Body
Whereas, In 2018, the City sold a vacant lot with the address of 2224 W. Rogers Street to the owner of the adjacent property at 1993 S. Muskego Avenue, with the combined parcel having the address 1993 S. Muskego Avenue; and
Whereas, One of the lots involved in this parcel consolidation was zoned Two-Family Residential, RT4, while the other was zoned Local Business (LB2), resulting in a single parcel with mixed zoning; and
Whereas, It is appropriate to correct this mixed zoning situation by amending the zoning map so that the entire site is zoned Local Business (LB2); and
Whereas, Section 295-307-2-b of the Code of Ordinances provides that an amendment to the zoning map may be initiated by a motion of the Common Council; now, therefore
It is moved, By the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee, that the Department of City Development is directed to draft and introduce an ordinance to amend the zoning map by assigning a single zoning designation, Local Business (LB2), to the parcel located at 1993 S. Muskego Avenue.
