AGENDA ITEM 5 B (1 & 2) STAFF ORIGINATOR: Mary Kay Wyland DATE: 5/20/98 TOPIC: Collova Addition, Rezoning and Interim MUSA Reserve (Ordinance No 07 -98 regarding the rezone and Resolution-Na-98 -69 regarding Interim MUSA) BACKGROUND: This case originally involved a preliminary plat for six (6) single family lots, a rezone from Rural to R -1, and a request for Interim MUSA Reserve for the property known as 250 and 260 Linda Avenue. 250 Linda Avenue was rezoned and given Interim MUSA Reserve by the City Council in the Fall of 1997. This request would involve a replatting of that previously approved request. Staff suggested that the rezone and Interim MUSA Reserve portion of this request be expanded to include all of the property on the north and south side of Linda Avenue between Hodgson Road and Laurene Street. The individual property owners were notified and no objection has been received to a rezone or Interim MUSA Reserve designation on these additional properties other than the desire of the property owners to be Zoned R -1X. I have enclosed past planning reports for Council information that discuss the preliminary plat in more detail. The Planning and Zoning Board held a public hearing on this matter at their March, 1998 meeting. At that time the public hearing was closed and the matter tabled to allow the applicant time to meet with the neighborhood and make some revisions to the grading plan. At the May meeting of the P & Z, following discussion by the staff, developer, neighborhood (including a petition from the adjoining property owners indicating they would prefer and R -1X zoning designation to the origianlly requested R -1), and questions from the P & Z, the Board recommended approval of a rezone from Rural to R -1 X and the allocation of Interim MUSA Reserve for the property on both sides of Linda Avenue between Hodgson Road and Laurene. The preliminary plat was tabled to the June 10th P & Z meeting to allow the applicant time to redraw the plat to meet the R -1X Zoning Requirements. The P & Z indicated that a redrawn plat would be acceptable provided it met the original conditions outlined in the staff report and the R -1X minimum lot and area requirements. NOTE: a redrawn plat will most likely contain only five (5) single family lots. The applicant is now asking for Council approval of a Rezone from Rural to R -1X Single Family and allocation of Interim MUSA Reserve.
