This change acknowledges that BCDC does not consider this parcel <br /> to have long-term viability as a port oriented property in consideration of the office <br /> park style development context around the parcel and in relationship to the <br /> 1-- capacity of the nearby Port of Redwood City. <br /> The folloK°ing map highlights the subject parcei and the surrounding zoning <br /> districts <br /> Proposed Zoning Map Amendment: <br /> From: General Industrial (GI) <br /> To: Industrial Restricted (IR) <br /> TP <br /> � ���K <br /> Red <br /> TP GI <br /> ci Zoning Districts: <br /> G� Genaal Industrial <br /> GI <br /> � B� ' �P Industrial Park <br /> _ arl�n <br /> .Q �Tidal Plain <br /> �� IP � General Commercial <br /> �'�, IP GI Combined Residential <br /> CG-R @@'� <br /> W TP <br /> When considering an amendment to the Zoning Map, the surrounding zones and <br /> land uses should also be analyzed for compatibility with the proposed new zoning <br /> designation. In this case, the surrounding zoning designations include the <br /> Industrial Park (IP), General Industrial (GI), and Tidal Plain (TP) Zoning Districts <br /> (refer to map above). The vast majoriry of the zoning classification in the project <br /> vicinity is IP. The TP zoning represents the water resoiirces, Redwood Creek and <br /> the San Francisco Bay, adjacent to the site. <br /> Aside from the Abbott property, there are only two other parcels in the vicinity that <br /> remain in the GI Zoning District: Seaport Plaza and the Stanford Boathouse <br /> parcels. Seaport Plaza has requested rezoning to IP for a variety of reasons, and <br /> staff supports their request. Staff also intends to propose rezoning the Stanford <br /> Boathouse property to IR at the same time that the Seaport Plaza property is <br /> considered for rezoning. If thos:: properties and the Abbott property are all <br /> rezoned, all of the zoning on the peninsula defined by Chesapeake Drive will be IP <br /> or IR and will be consistent with the overlying General Plan Land Use designation. <br /> Staff considers the IR and the IP Zoning Districts to be "good neighbors" in that <br /> they allow for similar types of uses in a relatively compatible range of intensities <br /> that can be located proximate to each other without degrading the integrity of <br /> either zone. The IR Zoning District standards do not require as much landscaping <br /> -- and allow taller buildings than the IP zone. However, staff believes that through a <br /> sensitive site and building design review process, development in an IR Zoning <br />
