<br />±yr, ~ 4 ~S <br />III <br />DEVELOPMENT AREAS <br />a <br />~~.,` The development area potentials suggested in this Chapter <br />are based primarily on existing land uses, ownership, blight and <br />housing conditions, accessibility and surrounding development. <br />Market and zoning implications are considered in Chapter IV. <br />Development areas are areas in which the majority of land is <br />vacant or redevelopment is indicated. Map 1-N and Map 1-S <br />delineate four such areas in the Study Area. Their <br />~i characteristics are itemized on Table 3. <br />Generally, the development areas comprise 299.0 acres, or <br />50.9 of the entire Study Area. All of its vacant land except <br />three parcels which total 13.5 acres on Beta Drive are situated <br />- in the development areas. They also encompass virtually all of <br />the Study Area's blighted parcels and substandard Housing units <br />(see definitions, Table 3). <br />Current zoning of the four development areas includes 120.0 <br />acres for one family uses, 93.0 acres for office-laboratories <br />and 86.0 acres for production distribution. Except for Area S2 <br />(see page 8), soil -and topographic conditions are typically <br />found elsewhere in Mayfield. That is, Mitiwanga soils which are <br />somewhat poorly drained prevail; and very little of the land has <br />excessive slopes. <br />AREA N1: Of this area's total 33.0 acres, 24.5, or 74.2, are <br />vacant. There are seven partially used residential parcels, and <br />31 totally vacant parcels. Except for two parcels with frontage <br />on White Road, all of the vacant land is located along Midvale <br />Avenue which is unimproved. <br />~~ Midvale Avenue and Area N1's extensive blight and <br />'~ substandard housing conditions imply that it should be <br /> designated for redevelopment which would include housing <br /> rehabilitati land assembly, <br />on and unified new housing <br />'- development. , <br />The potential for such action is enhance by sound <br /> residential uses in Willoughby Hi lls to the north, North Chagrin <br />~, Reservation to the east and Parkvi ew Golf Course to the south. <br />AREA N2: With 154.5 acres, this area is the largest development <br />area in the Study Area. Some 137.5 acres, or 89.0, are <br />vacant. The vacant land is encompassed by eight partially <br />developed residential parcels, one partially developed <br />industrial parcel and two entirely vacant parcels. <br />-~• <br />~. <br />7 <br />R~ <br />
