B. Action on Subdivision Case No. 2020-076F

This is a request by Riedel Holding LLC, owner, for the approval of the final plat for Riedel Office Condominiums, a condominium commercial subdivision. The subject property is located within the Riedel Commercial Plaza located on the northwest corner of Cesar Chavez Boulevard and 10th Avenue, Assessor's Parcel No. 77-28-206 and 776-28-207.

Lot B-1 and Lot B-2 of the Riedel Commercial Subdivision contains approximately 1.816 acres in total. These lots are part of the Riedel Plaza Shopping Center.

The entire shopping center contains 26.10 acres, it is zoned as Community Commercial (C-2). In addition to a grocery store, there are several retail spaces, restaurants, offices, and the Harvest Preparatory Academy. The area to the north has been
developed with residential subdivisions. Bienestar 7B is zoned as Medium Density Residential (R-2) and Bienestar 7C is zoned as Low-Density Residential (R1-6). The area to the west and south is a county island and belongs to the Arizona State Land Trust.  It is zoned as Rural Area Residential (RA-10) and is under county jurisdiction. The area to the east (across 10th Avenue) is undeveloped land owned by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). It is currently zoned as Rural Area Residential (RA-10).

The project property is zoned as Community Commercial, which allows all types of commercial uses. The proposed subdivision consists of approximately 1.816 acres and will be a construction of 2 buildings with 6 suites each, a total of 12 suites.

GENERAL PLAN:
This area is designated as an Activity Center in the City of San Luis 2020 General Plan. The activities proposed will be consistent with that designation. The Activity Center designation is intended for commercial services that conveniently serve the nearby residential areas.

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. 

Staff recommends approval of Subdivision Case No. 2020-076F for the final plat of Riedel Office Condominiums Commercial Subdivision with the condition that the applicant addresses all comments on the letter dated April 13, 2020.

PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
This item was presented to the Planning and Zoning Commission during their regular meeting of August 11, 2020.  The Commission recommended approval of the request with the condition that the applicant had to address all review comments on the letter dated April 13, 2020, prior to presenting this item to the City Council.
