SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North - vacant; MF-2
South - developing commercial; C
· East - vacant, golf course and developing single-family; R, SF-12 SUP,
and PD-SF-7
West - vacant and developing single-family; TI.t-1 and SF-9
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Plan shows this parcel to develop with Office ,and Commercial
USES.
ANALYSIS: Although there are arguments which could be made regarding the construction of
apartments at this location Coecause of the Comprehensive Plan document), the
land is currently zoned MF-2, and the owner has the right to develop the land as
shown and allowed through zoning. Based on our requirements for subdividing
land, this proposal basically abides by all our platting rules. There are several
additional comments to be made:
I. a doeeleration lane needs to be provided by the applicant for south-bound
MacArthur Blvd. to aid in entering the site. Right-of-way needs to be
shown on the plat and the !.~.ne needs to be completed before a c.o. is
issued for the development
2. a minimum 5 foot sidewalk mu.st l,c ~at,~t, ut;texl alcnag MacArth~r Blvd.
3. re-evaluation of tile drainage system neex~s to be undertaken prior to
submittal of the finaJ plat
4. assurances that there is no gated/secured entrance to this proposal
5. all covered parking must be interior to the site, needs to be shown on the
plan, and is no closer than 20 feet from the rear property Iine.
With regard to the type of unit proposed here (low income, not to exceed $27,000
annually), and the fact that we are evaluating two other low income requests in
the immediate area, staff is concerned with the possible negative impact these
developments could have on a city the size of ours, and the concentrated area in
which they are being proposed., To that end, the Council will discuss this issue
at its December meeting and may reflect its collective concern with a letter to the
State. It is our further understanding that tile State must *sign-off* on these low
income projects before funding can occur. Although the type of unit being
proposed is not part of the platting process, this data is conveyed to you for your
information.
