Zoning application [2019-410] for approximately 3.55 acres located along West Northfield Boulevard and Hope Way to be rezoned from MU and GDO-3to RS-15, New Vision Baptist Church of Murfreesboro Inc. developer. (project planner: Margaret Ann Green). The subject property is located at the terminus of Hope Way and along the West Northfield Boulevard extension, just northwest of the Vanderbilt University Medical Clinic. The property is a vacant, undeveloped parcel, is approximately 3.6 acres and is identified on Tax Map 080 Parcel 002.00. The subject property is owned by the City of Murfreesboro and is under contract with New Vision Baptist Church, who has applied for this zoning change request. A stipulation in the contract with the City is that New Vision rezone the property from MU (Mixed Use District) to RS-15 (Single-Family, Residential District). New Vision anticipates expanding their parking lot within this area, as use that is permitted with a Special Use Permit (SUP) in the RS-15 district. Future Land Use Map The Murfreesboro 2035 Future Land Use Map indicates that Business Park Character (BP) uses are most appropriate for the subject property. The purpose of the Business Park [BP] land use classification for this Comprehensive Plan’s Future Land Use Map, is to foster stability and growth of high-quality office and office/distribution, technology, research and development, and similar industries that are enhanced by access transportation networks and that provide desirable employment opportunities for the general welfare of the community. Business Parks are suburban in character, are typically developed in a campus style setting that features reduced site coverage and increased open space; and may include offices and associated administrative, executive professional uses, and specified institutional and limited commercial uses. The Planning Commission will need to conduct a public hearing on the matter of the zone change request, after which it will need to discuss this matter and then formulate a recommendation for City Council.  £ ¤ 1 RD : HV W E ST £ ¤ 41 M ED FO UNNA W& RK ST RO ON OH ES JH RI VE R 6 CH WU HHW AY Area to Be Rezoned RS-15 E W HO P from MU and GDO-3 to RS-15 RM-16 DQH MU TI NA RK RQ/ PA AL V DR S ON R P N RD WK7K ISO RR L-I GA 1RU Ê Rezoning Request for Property Along Hope Way Planning Department City Of Murfreesboro MU and GDO-3 to RS-15 111 West Vine Street Murfreesboro, Tennessee 37130 www.murfreesborotn.gov 0 250 500 1,000 Feet G:\rezon\2019\19-410_New_Vision_Rezone.mxd 4.18 Chapter 4 COMP PLAN TASK FORCE DRAFT 06.20.2016 Business Park Character (BP) BUSINESS (OFFICE) PARK CHARACTER (BP)  Intended to create a highly attractive business The purpose of the Business Park [BP] land use investment environment. classification for this Comprehensive Plan’s Future Land  Site operations are conducted indoors with no Use Map, is to foster stability and growth of high-quality outdoor storage or display. office and office/distribution, technology, research and Siting Criteria: development, and similar industries that are enhanced by access transportation networks and that provide Programmatic and locational criteria for light industrial/ desirable employment opportunities for the general business park development include the following welfare of the community.
