The property is appropriate for commercial development, as long as it's developed based on an approved conceptual master plan by MPC. The recommended conditions on the rezoning request will require the review and approval of an overall conceptual master plan by MPC. The site is located along Oak Ridge Hwy., at the interchange with the recently improved Schaad Rd., where a node of commercial development is appropriate.
