Higher Density Single Family is appropriate in this location. Staff recommends Neighborhood Mixed Use land use on Tract 2, in lieu of the applicant’s request for Mixed Use because this Tract is across the street from residential and office uses and would provide the opportunity for small-scale, neighborhood-friendly commercial, office and residential uses. The Govalle/Johnston Terrace Neighborhood Plan supports compatible and varied land uses, in addition to neighborhood-scale developments, which staff believes these land uses meet these goals. 2 Planning Commission hearing: …
