AZ Avenue Partners LLC Rezoning — 1001-1003 Ardmore Drive
Lynchburg
Description
The developers want to rezone just over half an acre — one vacant lot and one with a 1962 house — from residential to community business, with concept plans for a drive-through coffee shop or small retail. Planners recommended denial over drive-through impacts and allowed-by-right uses that worry them, and the commission deadlocked 3-3 before sending it to council.
Impact summary
If approved and built, the lots would see the existing house demolished for a small commercial building with screening along residential edges — but neighbors worry about traffic queuing, lighting, and privacy right next to a home whose driveway sits near the property line.
