市议会周二投票决定,将五福克斯地区的四处房产重新划分为一个更适合这个商业角落未来发展的分类。
这些物业位于杰斐逊大道254号、杰斐逊街400号和406号以及松树街806号。新的分类是中央商业,这将允许根据权利和特别许可混合使用这些物业。
以前,这些物业有多个分区分类。 这些物业的所有者丹支持人民币的博彩平台住房和重建局(Danville Housing and Redevelopment Authority)希望每一处物业都有相同的分区分类,并要求将其划分为中央商业类别。
2014年5月完成的一项城市研究确定了这个商业角落对老西区社区的重要性,以及对其进行振兴的必要性。 该研究包括一个转角的概念性规划,但没有制定开发计划。
在其他行动中,安理会投票通过:
• grant a special use permit to Grace and Main Fellowship for an urban agriculture operation on 1.15 acres of property at the end of Moffett Street. 该物业目前空置。 该项目将包括水果和蔬菜园、三只鸡、一个鸡舍、一个养鸡场、两个蜂箱、一个工具棚、一个车棚/有顶棚的工作空间,以及供当地社区成员参与种植自己食物的空间。
• adopt an updated comprehensive land use plan that establishes goals for future land use decisions.
• adopt code changes to comply with new state requirements for the granting of variances.
• accept grants for three airport projects, one of which involves redesigning the primary taxiway to better accommodate large corporate jets.
• apply for grants to subsidize transit services for seniors and disabled persons.
• accept the annual reports by the Finance Department on delinquent and improperly assessed taxes.
• authorize the city’s Transportation Department to apply for nearly $1 million in state and federal money to assist in operating the Danville Transit System and financing several capital projects, including the replacement of three buses and the rebuilding of two trolleys.
• move its next regular business meeting from Tuesday, Oct. 6, to Thursday, Oct. 8.
在其业务会议之后,理事会举行了一次工作会议,审查月度财务报表并讨论Schoolfield水坝发电的购买力协议。 Council also discussed a request by Virginia Bank & Trust to support an amended loan to give Sky Valley Foods an additional $500,000 for additional equipment for its operation in Airside Industrial Park. 理事会将在下次例会上对此事进行表决。
