PROBLEM/ISSUE STATEMENT
This is a zone change request from Residential 9,600 (R-96) to Residential 7,000 (R-70) on Lot 1, Block 5 and Lot 5, Block 2 of Grand Peaks Subdivision, a 7.8 acre parcel of land near the intersection of 54th Street West and Grand Peaks Drive. The applicant conducted a pre-application neighborhood meeting on June 24, 2015, at the King of Glory Lutheran Church, 4125 Grand Avenue. The Zoning Commission conducted a public hearing on August 4, 2015, and forwarded a recommendation of approval and adoption of the findings of the 10 criteria for Zone Change 938. The City Council approved the zone change on first reading on August 24, 2015. A second reading is required to approve the zone change.
ALTERNATIVES ANALYZED
City Council may:
- Approve the zone change and adopt the findings of the 10 criteria as recommended by the Zoning Commission ;
- Deny the zone change and adopt different findings of the 10 criteria;
- Allow the applicant to withdraw the zone change; or
- Delay action on the zone change request for up to 30 days.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
If the zone change is approved the city fees based on zoning will increase. The additional units developed will be a more efficient use of city services and facilities.
RECOMMENDATION
The Zoning Commission recommends approval and adoption of the findings of the 10 criteria for Zone Change 938.
