SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North - vacant (park land); R
South - commercial; C
East - single-family; SF-9
West - retail; R
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Plan shows this azea is best fit for single-family uses.
ANALYSIS: The existing Master Plan suggests single-family caning as most
appropriate for this tract of land. Presently, the property is bounded by
single-family subdivisions to the northeast and far north and retail to the
west. The conceptual plan submitted by the applicant indicates plans for
a single-family residential subdivision with a total of 34 lots of at least
9,000 square feet in size. A semicircular circulation pattern has been
designed for the subdivision, with one residential street serving the
proposal. There are two entry/exit points on Bethel Road. Nineteen of the
thirty-four lots aze abutting the tract's perimeter and will have to request
that alleys be abandoned, while the interior fifteen lots are showing
alleys. Conceptually, this plan conforms with the Master Plan and with
the "SF-9" single-family residential district zoning classification. Thus,
the request to rezone to single-family appeazs reasonable, and staff
supports the application. The alley issue needs to be resolved, and the
subdivision needs to be renamed to better reflect that this plat is located
along Bethel Road.
