    THIS CASE IS OF INTEREST TO ANC 5D

     

    On May 5, 2014, the Office of Zoning received an application from 1250 4th ST EDENS, LLC (the “Applicant”).  The Applicant is requesting approval of a consolidated planned unit development ("PUD") and related map amendment from C-M-1 to C-3-C. 

     

    The Office of Planning provided its report on June 20, 2014, which recommended that the case be set down by the Zoning Commission.  The case was set down for hearing by the Zoning Commission on June 30, 2014.

     

    The property that is the subject of this application consists of approximately 51,000 square feet of land.  The property is bounded by a vacant parking lot to the north, an industrial building to the south, 4th Street N.E. to the east, and an alley to the west. This property is legally identified as Square 3587, Parcels 129/95 and 129/96. 

     

    The C-3-C Zone District permits matter-of-right development for major business and employment centers of medium/high density development, including office, retail, housing, and mixed-uses to a maximum lot occupancy of 100%, a maximum PUD floor area ratio of 8.0 for residential and for other permitted uses, and a maximum PUD height of 130 feet. 

     

    The Applicant proposes to develop a new mixed-use development on the site, consisting of approximately 39,600 square feet of retail and approximately 368,400 square feet of residential.  The project will contain a total of approximately 408,000 gross square feet, for a density of 8.0 FAR and a building height of approximately 110 feet.  The project will also include an underground parking garage with approximately 400-550 parking spaces.

     

    This public hearing will be conducted in accordance with the contested case provisions of the Zoning Regulations, 11 DCMR § 3022.

     

    Except for the affected ANC, any person who desires to participate as a party in this case must clearly demonstrate that the person’s interests would likely be more significantly, distinctly, or uniquely affected by the proposed zoning action than other persons in the general public.  Persons seeking party status shall file with the Commission, not less than 14 days prior to the date set for the hearing, a Form 140 – Party Status Application, a copy of which may be downloaded from the Office of Zoning’s website at: http://dcoz.dc.gov/services/app.shtm.  This form may also be obtained from the Office of Zoning at the address stated below.

     

    If an affected Advisory Neighborhood Commission (ANC), pursuant to 11 DCMR 3012.5, intends to participate at the hearing, the ANC shall also submit the information cited in § 3012.5 (a) through (i).  The written report of the ANC shall be filed no later than seven (7) days before the date of the hearing.

    Pursuant to § 3020.3, the Commission may increase or decrease the time allowed above, in which case, the presiding officer shall ensure reasonable balance in the allocation of time between proponents and opponents.
