Owner Signature: Date: Print Name: City of Saratoga Springs p.2 of 2 ,., Application for Zoning Amendment Application Narrative for Weibel Plaza Commercial Planned Unit Development Zoning Text Amendment Parcel History This application is for a zoning text amendment to the Weibel Plaza Commercial Planned Unit Development(the"PUD") which was adopted on March 16, 1992, subsequently amended on July 22, 1998 and appears at Chapter 240 Appendix C of the Saratoga Springs Zoning Ordinance. The application arises as a result of a provision in the legislation which sets an expiration of the PUD zoning if final site plan approval for a building is not granted on or before July 1, 2012. This expiration specifically applies to the "Zone B" of the PUD, which constitutes the 16± acre parcel known as Weibel Ave Rear with Tax Map ID number 151-1-18 (the "Parcel"), owned by Baruch Aronson,the Applicant. The Parcel is currently vacant, having no final site plan approval granted to-date, and as a result the PUD legislation mandates the zoning for this site is to revert to the zoning district in existence for the site at the time of legislation, RR-1, which no longer exists. As the underlying zone does not exist in the current Saratoga Springs Zoning Ordinance this"sunset provision", if implemented, would result in a zoning map error and render the Parcel with no controlling legislation concerning permitted uses and area and bulk standards. The purpose of this application is to rectify this zoning issue and amend the permitted use schedule to include warehouse related operations. Zoning Text Amendment Description The Applicant proposes amending Section XI of the PUD, entitled Expirations, such that the "Planned unit development zoning approval shall expire if final PUD site plan approval for the first building in Zone B is not granted on or before July 1, 2024", an extension from the current July 1, 2012 expiration. By making this amendment, the PUD legislation will no longer act to revert the Parcel to a zoning district which no longer exists within the Saratoga 1 Springs Zoning Ordinance. In addition, the Saratoga Springs Zoning Map will continue to accurately reflect that this Parcel is zoned as a PUD. The Applicant also proposes supplementing the use schedule of the PUD to permit Warehouses, Distribution Plans and Wholesale Establishments upon issuance of Site Plan Review approval from the City of Saratoga Springs Planning Board. It is believed that these uses are consistent with the currently existing 41 permitted uses in this area and would provide supplemental warehouse services that meets the needs of the surrounding business community. The addition of these uses is also consistent with the 2015 City of Saratoga Springs Comprehensive Plan designating the PUD area as part of the Community Mixed Use (CMU) area, the same designation where the Warehouse District is located in the current Zoning Ordinance.
