  The committee will hear from the presenter, Jay Jackson, RYSE Interactive, Inc., www.RYSECreativeVillage.com. RYSE is redeveloping the ols Arkwright Elementary campus, 1261 Lockwood Dr SW and will be seeking to rezone 2 parcels of land. 
  
  For the main school building parcel, they are seeking to rezone from R4 (single-family zoning) to MRC-2, Multifamily Residential, Commercial-2, which would allow for the intended use as a training and development incubator for the creative arts industry. 
  For parcel 2, address 0 Wichita Dr., SW,  they are seeking to rezone from R4 TO RG4, General (multi-family) residential, maximum floor area ratio of 1.49.  Floor area ratio is the number of square feet in a building divided by the square footage of the building lot. An FAR of 0.5, for example, represents a one-story building that covers half of its lot, a two-story building that covers one fourth of its lot, and so on. The maximum floor area ratio can be exceeded with bonuses in some districts.
  
  The RG4 Zoning would allow for the construction of mixed-income, multifamily apartment homes.
  
  Come prepared with your questions for a productive meeting. Some information attached.
