Title
Use Permit Application No. 24-0468 by Everside Properties, LLC, to Permit a Short-term Rental (STR) at 1536 Morgan Dr [LRSN 12003152]
Purpose
Background Statement:
Use Permit Application No. 24-0468 is a request to operate a short-term rental (STR) at 1536 Morgan Dr [LRSN: 12003152]. The property is currently zoned One-Family Residential (R-9) District which allows for the desired use, subject to an approved use permit. The property is also situated in the Long Creek 1 Zone of the Short-term Rental Overlay (O-STR) District.
The Hampton Community Plan (2006, as amended) calls for evaluating land use proposals from a regional, city-wide and neighborhood perspective. Furthermore, land-use and economic development policies related to this land use application include safeguarding the integrity of existing residential neighborhoods, encouraging a mix of land uses that is appropriate and promotes the efficient use of land, and expanding tourism, entertainment, and cultural opportunities within the city.
The application meets all conditions required for approval of a Zoning Administrator Permit, including the density cap and separation between STRs, except for not having the required parking on-site. The applicant proposes meeting the parking requirement of one (1) parking space, should the Use Permit be approved, by installing the required parking space. Similarly, one of staff’s recommended conditions would require the parking to be installed prior to operation. Otherwise, the operational conditions are in line with those required of administratively approved STRs.
