The zoning change would be compatible with the current 1990 Land Use Plan and would be consistent with the aforementioned Comprehensive Plan policies. Land Use Compatibility: To determine the appropriateness of the proposed use it is beneficial to examine the adjoining land use and zoning. Direction Use Zoning North Single Family Residential R -1X South Rural Single Family R East Single Family Residential R -1X West Single Family/Regional Park R -1/RX The proposed zoning from PSP to R -1X would be consistent with the R -1X zoning of the Pheasant Hills subdivision that adjoins the site on the north and east. The property lies within the existing MUSA and Phase 1 growth area presents a logical extension of the existing sewered single family neighborhoods. Performance Standards: The rezoning application is not accompanied by a subdivision request. Any future development must be compliant with the City zoning and subdivision regulations. A survey delineating wetland in the subject site has been submitted. Based on our calculation, the site contains approximately 10+ acres of wetland, leaving 28 acres of buildable acres scattered through the site. The amount and configuration of the buildable acres will limit the development of the site.
