Proposal

The City proposes zoning incentives to encourage non-transient residential development along Lincoln Road West from Alton Road to Drexel Avenue, including increased floor area ratios (FAR) and building heights. Properties would need to eliminate existing transient uses and commit to long-term residential rentals only to qualify for the incentives.

Staff Recommendation
Review the proposed ordinances and continue to May 6, 2025 Planning Board meeting after community outreach

Conditions:

  • All existing transient uses must be fully vacated and prohibited
  • Only non-transient residential units permitted above first floor

  • Restrictive covenant required prohibiting rentals less than 6 months and 1 day
  • Certificate of appropriateness required for historic properties
  • Off-street parking prohibited for maximum height incentives
  • Participation in public micro-mobility network required
  • Building permits must be obtained by September 1, 2032

Compliance Findings:

✓ Concurrency: Satisfied ✗ Sea Level Rise: Addressed ✗ Comprehensive Plan: Consistent ✗ Land Development Regulations: Compliant
Key Issues
  • Loss of permanent residents due to conversion to short-term rentals
  • Traffic impacts from increased development potential
  • Infrastructure capacity for water, sewer, and transportation
