ANALYSIS: Land Use and Zoning The following is a summary of the proposal: Gross Site Area 6.18 Acres Upland Area 1.37 Acres Total Lots 3 Net Density 2.2 Units /1.0 Acres The site is within the existing MUSA line, although a MUSA allocation is necessary. Properties to the north of 62nd Street are included and can be served by sewer and water. Properties to the south will not be a part of this service. The site is divided into two sections on the zoning map. It is guided for Rural and Residential Single Family Executive; which has a correlating density of 3.4 units /acre in the R -1X; and 1 unit per 10 acres in the Rural District. The table below identifies the existing land use, guided land use, and zoning for the area. Location Guided Land Use Existing Zoning Site R-1X R West R North R-1X East R-1X South R The current zoning for the parcel is Rural. The parcel is located adjacent to R -X and R -1X land, and as such, it is reasonable to rezone the parcel to Single Family Executive which is compatible with adjacent uses. This rezoning is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Lot Area Requirements The proposed zoning of R -1X requires that each lot be no less than 12,825 square feet, or approximately 0.30 acres. The applicant has proposed to create 3 lots, Lot 1 will have an upland area of 21,793 square feet, Lot 2 will have an upland area of 17,254 square feet, and Lot 3 will have an area of 20,468 square feet. All three lots as proposed exceed the minimum square footage and meet the requirements stated in the Zoning Ordinance. Setback Requirements The R -1X District has a minimum side yard setback of 10 feet, rear yard of 30 feet, and front yard setback of 30 feet. Lots 1, 2, and 3 as proposed meet all of the setback requirements.
