RA Redevelopment Partners fuel station text amendment (former Rite Aid, 44th and Division)

Kentwood

Description

The Commission adopted a zoning text amendment allowing fuel stations in the Division Avenue form-based code with 11 design requirements, the first step toward redeveloping the long-vacant former Rite Aid as a gas station.

Impact summary

A $4-6 million redevelopment could replace a blighted, littered corner with a new store built to form-based code standards, boosting tax revenue — but the specific project still needs planning commission approval.
