Summary of Proceedings

Greenville Planning & Zoning Commission Resumed Meeting – June 18, 2020

The Greenville Planning and Zoning Commission reconvened on June 18, 2020, to resume the June 16, 2020 meeting. The commission reviewed additional public comments received in the interim and voted on four agenda items: a rezoning request for 71.691 acres, a rezoning request for 2.3885 acres, and two street closure requests. All items passed unanimously.

Public Comments & Testimony

  • Two written comments were received: one from Alan Cortis and one from Craig and Barbara Pardew regarding item 7 (CR Development rezoning). The chairman noted that some questions about specific development plans were not germane to the rezoning request. Staff answered permissible questions, including that the R6 district allows up to 17 units per acre, the conservation area (Track 2) will remain in natural state, and stormwater detention pond maintenance is required with annual inspections by a professional engineer and city verification.

Discussion Items

  • Item 7 – Rezoning by CR Development LLC: A request to rezone 71.691 acres (64.771 acres to R6, 6.92 acres to R6 Conservation) located north of the intersection of Williams Road and Dickinson Avenue from RA20 (Residential Agricultural). Commissioner Overton recused himself by unanimous vote. Staff clarified that the highest density under R6 is 17 units per acre, but the proposed development would yield approximately 5.7 units per acre (370 total units: 150 multifamily units and 110 duplex units). The conservation area is voluntary and will count toward density but remain undeveloped. Questions about traffic, environmental impacts, and stormwater maintenance were addressed. The commission voted unanimously to recommend approval as consistent with the comprehensive plan.
  • Item 8 – Rezoning by Collis and More LLC: A request to rezone 2.3885 acres at the southwest corner of Moore Boulevard and Staten’sburg Road from MS (Medical Support) and MCG (Medical General Commercial) to MCH (Medical Heavy Commercial). No discussion; motion to approve carried unanimously.
  • Item 9 – Closure of a portion of Josh Court: No discussion; motion to approve carried unanimously.
  • Item 10 – Closure of a portion of Ridgway Street: No discussion; motion to approve carried unanimously.

Key Outcomes

  • Item 7: Unanimous vote (7-0, with Overton recused) to recommend approval of the rezoning.
  • Item 8: Unanimous vote (8-0) to approve the rezoning.
  • Item 9: Unanimous vote (8-0) to approve the street closure.
  • Item 10: Unanimous vote (8-0) to approve the street closure.
  • The meeting was adjourned by unanimous vote.
