The Blacksburg Planning and Building Department has received a request to rezone 4.215 acres of land from the R-5 Transitional Residential zoning district to the PR Planned Residential zoning district at 1222 Patrick Henry Drive. The property currently contains a vacant single family home. The applicant proposes to develop a 4-story multi-family structure on the site. The maximum number of residential units will be 113 (27 units per acre) and the maximum number of bedrooms will be 278 (66 bedrooms per acre). The applicant proposes a parking ratio of 0.75 spaces per bedroom or a total of 207 proposed parking spaces. The site is currently designated as Medium Density Residential on the Future Land Use Map of the town’s Comprehensive Plan. Medium Density Residential is defined by having up to and including ten dwelling units per acre; or up to 20 bedrooms per acre, whichever is less.
