UPDATED: Review Sketch Plan for Davis Addition; Case of Green Valley Greenhouse

The purpose of this case is to consider a lot split that will ultimately allow for the future expansion of Green Valley Greenhouse. Ideally, the lot split would occur concurrently with a Comprehensive Plan Amendment from Low Density Residential to something that would allow the expansion of this existing commercial greenhouse. However, the time to consider and approve will take a longer period of time than Green Valley Greenhouse has with an existing purchase agreement. A closing is scheduled for the end of August.

Staff believes that any liability can be covered in a Development Agreement. By approving this lot split, there is no approval of any site plan for expansion of Green Valley Greenhouse. Green Valley will still need a Comprehensive Plan Amendment and Site Plan Approval prior to any construction activities that would expand the footprint of the existing facility.

Staff attempted to notify all Property Owners within 700 feet via Standard US Mail.

All costs associated with processing this application are the responsibility of the Applicant.

Staff recommends approval of this Plat, contingent upon the Applicant entering into a Development Agreement with the City and the completion of a Comprehensive Plan Amendment prior to any actual construction activities.
