SUMMARY:

This item is a request by Vianey R. Vega P.E., of Vega & Vega Engineering, PLC, on behalf of Comite de Bienestar Inc., owner, for approval of the final plat for the construction of residential subdivision to be called Bienestar Estates 10 Subdivision. 

The subject property is located on the east mesa of the City of San Luis, on the southeast corner of Avenue F and County 24th Street. Santa Cecilia No. 1 and Santa Cecilia No. 2, two single-family residential subdivisions, are located north of the proposed subdivision. To the west and south, there is undeveloped land zoned as Rural Area Residential (RA-10). Adjacent to the east is vacant land recently rezoned from Light Industrial to Residential.

The proposed subdivision consists of approximately 40.91 acres and is proposed to be divided into 163 lots and 2 tracts. One tract for future commercial development and the other tract to be dedicated to the City for stormwater retention. The lots will range in size from approximately 6,022.96 square feet to 10,150.51 square feet.

GENERAL PLAN UPDATE:
This area is designated as Neighborhood in the City of San Luis 2020 General Plan. The activities proposed will be consistent with those designations (Chapter 2, Page 19-21). The Neighborhood designation allows all types of residential development.

AGENCY REVIEW:
As part of the review process, all land use cases are reviewed by various City departments and outside agencies. We have received comments from the following agencies: Arizona Game and Fish Department (3-15-19). The City has not received any other significant concerns or objections from the various review agencies.

ANALYSIS:
In 2007, the Arizona Legislature adopted legislation that required municipalities to certify that all new subdivisions had an assured 100-year water supply. On February 11, 2011, the City of San Luis was designated by the Arizona Department of Water Resources (ADWR) as having a 100-year adequate water supply. Consequently, individual subdivisions do not have to submit additional certification. 

PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MEETING:
At the request of the applicant, this item was presented to the Planning and Zoning Commission meeting during their regular meeting held on May 14, 2019. The Commission recommended approval of the request with the condition that the applicant had to address all comments pending before scheduling this item to be presented to the City Council.

Staff received the complete resubmittal on May 21, 2019. After review, staff sent out partial comments on June 3rd, 2019 and one additional comment on June 7th, 209. All comments were put together and send out to the applicant on letter dated June 7, 2019. Applicant submitted revised plans and are under review by staff.

Staff recommends approval of Subdivision Case No. 2019-0114F with the condition that the applicant addresses review comments letter dated June 7, 2019.

I MOVE TO APPROVE SUBDIVISION CASE NO. 2019-0114F WITH THE CONDITION THAT THE APPLICANT ADDRESS STAFF'S JUNE 7, 2019 LETTER TO THE APPLICANT AS PRESENTED.
