HomeMy WebLinkAboutZ-3592-A Staff AnalysisJuly 24, 1984 Item No. 2 - Z -3592-A Owner: Dr. W. Wise Applicant: Michael Watson Location: South of Kanis and West of Shackelford Request: Rezone from "OS" Open Space, "0-2" Office and Institutional and "C-2" Shopping Center to "OS" Open Space and "R-2" Single Family Purpose: Size: Church and Buffer 1.1 acre + Existing Use: Vacant SURROUNDING LAND USE AND ZONING: North - Church, Unclassified South - Vacant, Zoned "0-2" and "C-2" East - Vacant, Zoned "OS" and "C-2" West - Vacant, Zoned "OS" and "0-2" • PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS: 1. The proposal is to utilize the property for church expansion. The church located to the north of the tract in question plans to construct an additional building on the site after the rezoning has been accomplished. The request also includes an "OS" strip which will maintain the same relationship as is currently in place between the various tracts of land. The 40 -foot "OS" area will buffer the church and other properties from the "0-2" and "C-2" parcels. This rezoning and Z -3592-B (item #3) are involved in a land swap that has created the need to request rezoning on the two sites. The church will gain this tract and give up the property being rezoned to "C-2" item #3. 2. The site is vacant and heavily wooded. 3. There are no right-of-way requirements or Master Street Plan issues associated with this request. July 24, 1984 Item No. 2 - Continued 4. There have been no adverse comments received from the reviewing agencies at this time. 5. There are no legal issues. 6. There is no neighborhood position on this site. The tract was part of a large rezoning that was approved by the City in early 1981. 7. There appears to be no outstanding issues and staff supports the request. The church will have a larger piece of property to work with and not adversely impact any plans for the "0-2" and "C-2" tracts to the south ("R-2" was recommended because when the property to the north is annexed to the City it will come in as "R-2" also.) With the "OS" strip, this will establish a more workable zoning pattern. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of "OS" and,"R-2" as filed. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: The applicant was present. There were no objectors present. The Planning Commission discussed the case briefly and then voted to approve the request as filed by a vote of 10 ayes, 0 noes and 1 absent.
