wall maintenance easement of three (3) feet in width along and parallel to the adjacent lot shall be
provided.
(102.11) Where adjacent zero lot line dwellings are not constructed against or along a common lot

D.THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN/STAFF COMMENTS:
The subject site has a Future Land Use Map (FLUM) designation of Mixed-Use-
Transitional.
On January 21, 2010, the Planning Commission adopted an updated Prattville Comprehensive Plan.
The Future Land Use Plan and Map in Section 2.2 of the document shows the subject parcel as
“Mixed-Use Transitional”. Mixed-use transitional areas are referenced to include uses such as
housing of a variety of densities. The current zoning of these parcels are B-2 (General Business), R-
3 (Single-Family Residential) & a 30’ wide F.A.R zoned strip at the north boundary line. This
proposed zoning designation of R-5 (Patio Garden Homes) would be consistent with the adopted
land use plan for this area. Furthermore, a church and daycare use has been presented within the
sketch plan. The Commission shall note that a church & day care is an allowable use in an R-5
zoning district based upon use-on-appeal approval from the City of Prattville Board of Zoning
Adjustment.

Side of US HWY 82 between Washington Ferry Rd & Jensen Rd.

C.ANALYSIS:
Proposed Use:The applicant is requesting a zoning designation of B-2
(General Business). The applicant has stated that this
request is being made for a restaurant. No details were
given on specifics of the restaurant including
ingress/egress, general location, and footprint of proposed
building area.
Street Connectivity: No new access points are proposed within the submitted
survey exhibit in support of this rezoning. The majority of
the tract has frontage along US HWY 82. As an Alabama
Department of Transportation maintained highway corridor,
controlled access points allow for no future ingress/egress
connections other than the existing access point’s currently
placed, if any. A submitted survey in support of this rezone
indicate a portion of the property located at the NW corner
of Washington Ferry Rd & US Hwy 82 as being acquired for

future state right-of-way in anticipation for improvements to
US HWY 82. A portion of right-of-way is also indicated as
being acquired nearest to the property line along Washington
Ferry Road to the intersection of Washington Ferry Road &
Robinson Street (an unimproved city street) located at the
NE corner of the parcel (see staff comments). The section of
property located at the SW corner of US HWY 82 &
Washington Ferry Rd does not allow for direct access near
this intersection therefore, the nearest available right-of-way
access point to the property would be from Jensen Road.
Water/ Sewer: The proposed site can be accessed by an existing sanitary
sewer line located parallel to the east side of Washington
Ferry Road. Access to this sewer line would require
coordination underneath the existing road right-of-way as
the property is located on the west side of Washington Ferry
Road. Furthermore, there is no direct sewer line access along
US HWY 82, and near the Jensen Road & US HWY 82
intersections. Water is available on site.

THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN/STAFF COMMENTS:
The subject site has a Future Land Use Map (FLUM) designation of Low-Density
Residential & Mixed-Use- Residential.
This 2.7 acre section of property located at the NW corner of US HWY 82 & Washington Ferry
Road has an estimated 100 +/- feet of no access right-of-way from the north edge of US HWY 82 to
the south property line. This tract has multiple road frontages with Robinson Street at the north,
Johnson Street at the west, and Washington Ferry Road at the east. It shall be noted that the
petitioner has submitted a site survey indicated the potential purchase of right-of-way from ALDOT
at the NE corner of the parcel at the Robinson Street & Washington Ferry Road intersection. After

right-of-way improvement are made, access to this parcel would be inadequate to existing gravel
city streets, Robinson Street at the north & Johnson Street to the west.
Nevertheless, this subject site has a future land use classification of Low Density Residential as part
of the City of Prattville Comprehensive Plan. Low density residential refers to single family homes
on single lots, usually at least one-sixth of an acre or larger. In most cases, single-family residential
districts will abut other single-family district land uses and greenspace. Rezoning this property from
R-2 (Single-Family Residential) to B-2 (General Business) would be contrary to consistency in
following with the Comprehensive Plan. This changing of land-use insanity for business would
create a commercial node along gravel city streets that is intended for access to existing single-
family dwellings therefore, the basic infrastructure needs of this location and residential future land
use classification do not support this rezoning request of B-2 (General Business) for the 2.7 acre
tract.
Moreover, the 1.9 & 0.59 acre +/- tract located at the SW corner of US HWY 82 & Washington
Ferry Road & SE corner of US HWY 82 & Jensen Road has an estimated 60 +/- feet of no access
right-of-way from the south edge of US HWY 82 to the north property line of the parcel. At present,
the entire 0.59 acre parcel at the SE corner of US HYW 82 & Jensen Road is zoned B-1
(Neighborhood Business). The adjacent 1.71 acre section of the property is zoned B-1
(Neighborhood Business) with a small remaining section located nearest to the SW corner of US
HWY 82 & Washington Ferry Road zoned R-2 (Single-Family Residential). The current City of
Prattville Comprehensive Plan has a future land use classification of Mixed-Use- Residential for this
location. This land use classification is recommended for housing of a variety of densities. Rezoning
of this property from B-1 (Neighborhood Business) & R-2 (Single-Family Residential) to a more
intense business use classification, B-2 (General Business) would be contrary to the consistency of
the City of Prattville Comprehensive Plan that recommends a Mixed-Use Residential future land
use classification.

Recommendation: Denial. This proposed rezoning does not meet the Future Land
Use Classification of the Comprehensive Plan, as this guiding
growth policy recommends a Low-Density & Mixed-Use
Residential future land classification for the subject property. The
rezoning of these parcels to B-2 (General Business) would be
inconsistent with this guiding principle in following with the
Comprehensive Plan. It shall be noted that the applicant has stated
that is of the intention to rezone said property for a proposed
restaurant. The parcel located at the SE corner of Jensen Road &
US HWY 82 is currently zoned B-1 (Neighborhood Business). A
restaurant at this location is a permitted use in a B-1 zoning
district as a “Use on Appeal”. Unlike a variance where a hardship
is required, a use on appeal can be heard before the City of
Prattville Board of Zoning Adjustment whereas the board would
make a determination if a restaurant would be appropriate at this
location. The board may also be able to grant conditions to any
restaurant site plan based off of staff & board recommendations.
