Title
Use Permit Application by Stephen Hartley to Permit a Veterinarian Office/Hospital at 26 Coliseum Crossing [LRSN: 7001360]
Purpose
Background Statement:
This is a request for a use permit to operate a veterinarian office/hospital at 26 Coliseum Crossing [LRSN: 7001360]. The property is zoned Limited Commercial (C-2) District and is within the Coliseum Central Overlay (O-CC) District.
The Hampton Community Plan (2006, as amended) designates this area as mixed-use. It sets forth the policies that corridor-oriented commercial development should be encouraged within specified areas to strengthen the viability of commercial uses as well as policies regarding diversifying and strengthening the region’s economic base through the development of economic clusters.
The property falls within the Coliseum North initiative area of the Coliseum Central Master Plan (2015, as amended) which specifically addresses the Coliseum Crossing Shopping Center. The Plan recognizes that there is a lower demand for store space for traditional retail than in the past and recommends using the available real estate for fast-casual restaurants and lifestyle services instead.
