Background/History:
Mogollon Engineering and Surveying, Inc., on behalf of Miramonte Homes, is requesting final plat approval to permit 14 single-family residential townhome lots on 1.65 acres. The site is located within the Presidio in the Pines master planned development and is currently zoned Highway Commercial (HC). On August 14, 2013, the Planning and Zoning Commission approved a Conditional Use Permit for the site to establish a Planned Residential Development, which would allow the development of the proposed townhomes.
Presidio in the Pines was planned and developed using the Traditional Neighborhood District (TND) standards found within the previous Land Development Code. When the Zoning Code was adopted, the TND standards were carried forward in the form of transect zones. While townhomes are not specifically permitted within the HC zone, they are permitted as part of a Planned Residential Development (PRD) with the issuance of a Conditional Use Permit (CUP). The Zoning Code established the PRD as a mechanism to allow the development of specific transect zone building types (i.e. townhouse, duplex, courtyard apartments, etc.) in non-transect zones. These specific building types, however, are dependent on transect development standards. As such, this development proposes the use of the T4 Neighborhood 2 (T4N2) transect zone development standards.
On May 18, 2004, the City Council approved Ordinance No. 2004-05 that rezoned approximately 91 acres of property from the Rural Residential (RR) Zone as follows: approximately 77 acres to the High Density Residential (HR) Zone, approximately 1 acre to the Single-Family Residential (R1) Zone (formally known as the Urban Residential (UR) Zone), and approximately 13 acres to the Highway Commercial (HC) Zone (formally known as the Urban Commercial (UC) Zone).
On May 28, 2004, the City Council approved Resolution No. 2004-40 that entered the City into a Development Agreement that included the Presidio in the Pines Development Master Plan. A copy of the recorded Development Agreement, with included Development Master Plan is on file and available for inspection with the Community Development Department. Subsequently, the Development Agreement has been amended three times by the City Council. The most recent amendment entitled the Third Supplement to the Development Agreement is dated August 2, 2012.
