Item//8
HISTORY:
This property has a zoning histoo' that goes back to the late 1980's.
A single-family Planned Development was granted on the land in
1989 and had a provision lhat allowed a maximum of 16 residential
lots (even though the plan dravdng submitted with the application
showed 14 lots--a note on the PD stated a maximum of 16 lots
could be developed). That PD is presently undeveloped, and the
current applicant wishes to proceed with developmen! allowed
during the PD hearing process conducted in 1989.
TRANSPORTATION:
There are no major or secondau, thoroughfares in the area. This
subdivision would be an extension of ~m existing residential street,
Hidden Valley Drive. Residential streets have a r-o-w of 50 feet and
a street width of 27 feet, with curb/gutter and sidewalks.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North- single-family residences; SF-9
South - single-family residences; SF- 12
East- single-family residences; SF-12
West- single-family development and church: SF-9 and C, Commercial
COMPREHENSIVE PI.AN:
The 1996 Comprehensive Master Plan shows the property
as suitable for low density residential uses.
DISCUSSION:
Page 2 of 3
This properly was zoned as a 16-lot residential Planned Development in
1989. There are currently five houses within the area--the land seller's
home, which is within the PD, and will be tom down, and four additional
homes built in the late '80's (outside the boundaries of the Planned
Development zoning), which will remain. The current plan closely
approximates the original approval and basically adds only an "eyebrow"
on the west side to get a more efficient lot pattern. The completed project
will include a concrete street extending from the asphalt end of Hidden
Valley Drive, curb/gutter and sidewalks throughout the subdivision, with
the exception of the lots at the northwest corner of the property referenced
above as being outside the PD boundaries. Lot sizes within the
development will range from slightly over 12,000 square-feet up to and
exceeding 20,000 feet. There are sanitary, drainage and utility easement
issues to be resolved, and they are addressed in the conditions section of
this S'mff Report. There are also tree mitigation concerns that must be
addressed before development can occur on the site and again, they are
addressed in the staff conditions recommendation. Because this is a
Item #8
preliminary plat application, it is anticipated that a number of our staff
concerns will be addressed prior to submission of the Final Plat.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
