ITEM:
Discussion and possible action on any and all matters regarding Subdivision Case No. 2017-0433F. A request by Nieves Riedel on behalf of R&G Associates, LLC, for the final plat approval for Santa Cecilia Subdivision. The property is located at the north east corner of County 24th Street and Avenue "F", Assessor's Parcel No. 227-10-010, San Luis, Arizona.(Jose A. Guzman, Acting Planning and Zoning Director)
SUMMARY:
The subject property is located in the east mesa of the City of San Luis; east side of Avenue F between Aracely Street and County 24th Street, Assessor's Parcel No. 227-10-010. Bienestar 9A single family residential subdivision is located north of the proposed rezoning. To the west, across Avenue F, is also developed as a single family residential subdivision; Bienestar 9B. The south and east properties adjacent to the project are undeveloped land. All the surrounding properties mentioned are zoned as Medium-High Density Residential (R-2).
ANALYSIS:
As an effort to alleviate the demand for bigger houses the City Council approved Ordinance No. 347, an ordinance to set up the minimum lot size to 6,000 square feet. After this ordinance was adopted single detached dwellings are no longer allowed in Medium-High Density Residential (R-2) zoning district. This property was rezoned from Medium-High Density Residential (R-2) to Medium Density Residential (R1-6) in order to allow the construction of the proposed subdivision (Rezoning Case No. 2017-073). The proposed subdivision will consist of 163 lots ranging in size from 6,000 sq. ft. to 10,695.72 sq. ft. It will be a total of 34.63 acres.
GENERAL PLAN:
This area is designated as Neighborhood in the City of San Luis' 2020 General Plan. The activities proposed will be consistent with that designation (Chapter 2, Page 19-20). The Neighborhood Land Use designation allows all types of residential development.
