Please see the Annexation Staff Report included in this same agenda packet (Item 14-A-i)
Options and Alternatives:
The City Council may approve the ordinance as proposed, approve the ordinance with conditions, or deny the ordinance.
Background and History:
Please see the Annexation Staff Report included in this same agenda packet (Item 14-A-i).
Key Considerations:
The requirements of the Public Open Space (POS) zone, the Landmark Overlay (LO) zone, and the Resource Protection Overlay (RPO) zone are intended to promote the preservation and unique character of properties within the zone. The Landmark Overlay (LO) zone is intended to protect identified historic resource. In this case the property maintains one of the original reservoirs for the City of Flagstaff, a historic resource worthy of protection. Additionally, the Resource Protection Overlay (RPO) provides standards for the protection of natural resources, including floodplains, steep slopes, and forest.
Community Involvement:
Community benefits and considerations related to this request are addressed in more detail in the attached Planning and Zoning Commission Staff Report, dated February 3, 2017.
