Planning & Zoning Board August 14, 2002 Page 22 APPROVED MINUTES Staff’s review of the application submi ssion materials find that the application is incomplete. As such, this report represen ts only a preliminary review of the overall subdivision and rezoning. A more detailed re view will be prepared for the September Planning and Zoning meeting. Staff presented its analysis by explaining to accommodate the proposed development, the following approvals will be necessary: 1. Rezone from R, Rural to R-1, Single Family. 2. Review and approval of the preliminary plat. 3. If the airplane hangars are found to be an acceptable use, a PDO will be required to accommodate the proposed airplane ha ngars and insure there will be proper maintenance associated with these accessory buildings. 4. There is a need to vacate a portion of Carl Street that w ould not be utilized if the subdivision is approved. Said vacation w ould be done as a condition of final plat approval. Staff noted in review of the rezoning appl ication, we find that the new land use plan guides this area for low density residential. The R-1, Single Family Residential District is consistent with this land use classifi cation. Additionally, MU SA would need to be extended to this subdivision as final plats are reviewed and approved. In addition to consistency with the Comprehensive Plan, the extension of the R-1 zoning would be consistent with the zoning that is al ready in place on Behms Century Farms 1 st through 5 th Additions located to the sout h. The proposal appears to be the logical extension of the low-density land use pattern. However, we have not had the opportunity to conduct a thorough review of the applic ation to determine if the proposed plats meet the requirements for the R-1 District. In review of the preliminary plat, staff indicated the following issues need further attention: 1. The proximity to the Lino Airpark raises issue as to whether the plat has been fully designed in compliance with required airport safety zones to insure that flight patterns will not di sturb the future residents of the single-family lots. 2. The proposed Behms Century Farms 6 th through 10 th Additions surround a number of lot exceptions that contain unsewered residential properties. The application has not provided any type of conceptual pl an that would illustrate future subdivision or extension of utilities into these areas. In accordance with the City’s Subdivision Ordinance, where a plat abuts undeveloped properties. A concept plan can be required and extens ion of streets shoul d be considered in conjunction with the plat design. 3. There is a need for a park in this area to accommodate the new subdivision and residents that would live within the plat . A detailed park proposal should be outlined for City staff and Planning a nd Zoning Board consideration. At this point, City staff has not seen any proposal in that regard.
