This decision approves a zoning change for the property at 1300 Belmar Drive in Louisville, Kentucky. The 0.27-acre site, currently zoned M-2 Industrial, will be rezoned to M-2 Industrial & CM Commercial/Manufacturing to allow for auto sales and automotive repair. The proposal includes a waiver from landscape buffer planting requirements, consistent with existing site conditions, as no new construction is planned for the existing 1-story building. The Planning Commission recommended approval on January 16, 2025, by an 8-0 vote. The site is situated within a Neighborhood Form District, adjacent to an existing mixed-use activity center along Belmar Drive, and is well-served by current infrastructure. Residential areas nearby are separated by railroad tracks. This change aligns with the Comprehensive Plan guidelines, allowing for adaptable land use in a commercial corridor.
