CITIZEN
October 29, 1998 Planning Commission Meeting. Notification
PARTICIPATION
sent to John Barrow, Sandpiper, Twin Lakes, Campus Place,
Kensington Place, Westbrook, Birchwood, Pennebrook/Clover
Hill Place, Sewer District # 147, and Twin Lakes "B".
BACKGROUND
This area is included in the John Barrow Neighborhood Area
Plan that was adopted in June 1996. When the Plan was
completed, all of the Multi -Family in this area was changed to
MOC if not already zoned MF or developed as multi -family.
Since this area was zoned MF -12 at the time, it was not
changed. The desire of the community is for no more multi -
Family and to encourage MOC.
Currently, Labette Drive does not continue past the site,
however, there are plans to connect it towards the west. The
two roads are separated by undeveloped land that is proposed
for a senior living center on the south side of the road.
BACKGROUND After review of the area, the Planning Staff expanded the area
CONTINUED of review to include the area west of the application. It is
thought that the additional area would make the amendment
more logical.
The property is currently zoned M F-12 and is approximately
0.82 acres in size: To the south is a site of a future senior living
center. To the west is undeveloped land zoned MFD-12. To
the southeast is a P.O.D. for a medical supplies/rental business.
To the east, is a group home zoned 0-3. To the north, are
several apartment complexes zoned R-5 and shown as Multi -
Family on the Land Use Plan.
John Barrow Road is shown as a Minor Arterial on the Master
Street Plan and Labette Drive is shown as a collector street.
Future plans are to connect the eastern and western sections of
Labette Drive.
