<br />A RESOLUTION
<br />PROPOSING THE AMENDMENT OF THE CITY ZONING MAP
<br />TO REZONE CERTAIN PARCELS ON HIGHLAND AVENUE
<br />TO AN R-lA ZONING CLASSIFICATION
<br />WHEREAS, by ordinance dated June 3, 1991, the City of
<br />Charlottesville created a new R-lA residential zoning district, and
<br />rezoned a substantial number of properties in the City to that
<br />classification; and,
<br />WHEREAS, it now appears that certain properties may have been
<br />inadvertently or mistakenly omitted from the group of properties
<br />which were rezoned to R -1A; and,
<br />WHEREAS, the public necessity, convenience, general welfare
<br />and good zoning practice require the City Council to consider a
<br />change in the land use and zoning classification of certain parcels
<br />on Highland Avenue, identified on City Real Estate Tax Map 21 as
<br />Parcels 116, 117, 118, 119, 120, 121, 126, 127, 128, 129, 130, 131
<br />and the northern portion of 131.1, from R-2 Residential to R-lA
<br />Residential; and,
<br />• WHEREAS, the properties immediately to the north and to the
<br />south of the aforementioned properties are already zoned R -1A; and,
<br />WHEREAS, reclassification of the subject properties will
<br />further the objectives of the R-lA Residential District of
<br />protecting against overcrowding of land and undue density of
<br />population, promoting convenience of access and reducing or
<br />preventing congestion in the public streets, and facilitating the
<br />creation of a convenient, attractive and harmonious community;
<br />NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the City of
<br />Charlottesville that the Planning Commission is hereby requested to
<br />consider, after proper notice and a joint public hearing, an amend-
<br />ment to the Land Use Plan of the Comprehensive Plan for those
<br />properties on Highland Avenue, identified on City Real Estate Tax
<br />Map 21 as Parcels 116, 117, 118, 119, 120, 121, 126, 127, 128, 129,
<br />130, 131 and the northern portion of 131.1, from Two Family
<br />Residential to One Family Residential, and a proposed rezoning of
<br />those properties from R-2 Residential to R-lA Residential, and to
<br />make recommendations to City Council.
