Background/History:
In August of 1998, the City Council approved Ordinance No. 1976 that conditionally rezoned the site from Rural Residential (RR) to Medium Residential (MR) for the development of an affordable residential townhouse project consisting of 548 units called Zuni Heights. Concurrently, the Growth Management Guide 2000 land use designation for the site was amended from Medium Density Residential to High Density Residential in order to support the increase in density. Subsequent to the approval of Growth Management Guide amendment and rezoning, platting was not pursued and the site was never developed.
On March 7, 2005, the City Council approved Resolution No. 2005-15 approving a Development Agreement between the City and developer, Resolution No. 2005-16 that amended the Flagstaff Area Regional Land Use and Transportation Plan land use designation for the site from High Density Residential to Medium Density Residential in order to support a reduced density, Ordinance No. 2005-05 that modified the conditions of Ordinance No. 1976 for the development of a single-family residential townhouse project consisting of 206 units called Pinnacle Pines, and a tentative plat for Unit 1 of the subdivision.
On October 21, 2014, the City Council approved the Pinnacle Pines Unit 2 Preliminary Plat for the subdivision of approximately 18.59 acres into 106 single-family residential townhouse lots.
Community Involvement:
The subject property's existing zoning allows for the proposed subdivision. No public hearing or public outreach is required as part of the City Council's review of the final plat.
