9i. 96th Street Office Campus (UV-176-00)

The Department advised the petitioner prior to filing that this was not the appropriate
course for this project. The Zoning Ordinance provides a number of zones in which office uses
of the types proposed are permitted, and, as such, the proper procedure for a development of this
type is to file a petition to Rezone to an appropriate District. The Department holds that
rezoning by Use Variance is inappropriate.
