PF Rezoning Report September 3, 2003 Page 2 The Commission may recall that the zoning map presented for review on August 20 had proposed the golf course be rezoned commercial. While that is still a possibility, it seems more appropriate to rezone the golf course to Industrial to match the surrounding land uses. (The Zoning Map attached to this report reflects the change to Industrial.) The Commission will also recall that it was indicated no text amendments would be necessary as golf courses were a permitted use within the Commercial districts. Upon further review it was revealed that not to be the case. Thus a text amendment will be required and a draft ordinance is attached for the Commission’s review. Comprehensive Plan. The Comp Plan Future Land Use Map (attached) designates the parcels currently zoned PF as a mix of different classifications. Parks are designated as Natural Open Space (OSN), Passive Open Space (OSP) or Outdoor Sport and Recreation (SRO). City wells are designated Utility (UTL) while City Hall and the Public Works garage are designated Institutional (IN). The Community Center is guided as Indoor Sport and Recreation (SRI) and the site of the former water tower in the Mustang Drive industrial park is designated Heavy Industrial (HI), probably in anticipation of a reuse by one of the adjoining business on Mustang Drive. This is important because the City’s Zoning Maps need to be consistent with (or, not inconsistent with) the City’s Future Land Use Map. To aid in evaluating whether a property with a certain zoning designation is consistent with the future intended use, a table is included in the Comprehensive Plan which addresses compatibility. The compatibility table, attached to this report for your review, indicates that the only compatible zoning districts for OSN and SRO properties (parklands and the golf course) are CRP and PF. Incompatibility issues arise with the other parcels as well. Thus, if the City rezones the parcels currently zoned PF to other district designations, the City’s Future Land Use Map would need to be amended as well. Assuming this is the case, the following table represents the necessary changes resulting for the rezoning action: Land Uses Current FLU Map Designation Proposed FLU Map Designation City Parks SRO, OSN, OSP No changes * City Wells Utility Industrial (LI) * City Hall Institutional Office (OFC) Community Center SRI Community Commercial (CC) Golf Course SRO Industrial (LI) Public Works Garage Institutional Industrial (LI) * While no change is needed to the FLU Map, the compatibility table listed on Page 40 will need to be amended to add R-1 as a compatible zoning district for SRO, SRI, OSN and OSP designations.
