Approximately 21.2 acres to be zoned 0-1 are located on the south side of proposed Executive Center Drive. Of these 21.2 acres, approximately 7.5± acres are now zoned MF -12. The remaining acreage is currently zoned 0-1. The OS zoned property to the south is not included in the rezoning application. Approximately 21.3 acres are located on the north side of proposed Executive Center Drive. This property is currently zoned MF -12 and is proposed to be zoned 0-3. The proposed office zoning would appear to be a logical extension of the zoning pattern established by Roger Office Park, adjacent to the east. An office warehouse development is under construction directly north of this property. An OS zoned buffer, varying in width from 200 feet to 130 feet, is located along the southern perimeter of this property and separates the site from the single family residential neighborhood to the south. The I-430 District Land Use Plan reflects the current zoning by recommending multifamily for those properties currently zoned MF -12. Staff would recommend amending the Plan to show Suburban Office for this site. Along with the OS zoned buffer, the 0-1 and 0-3 zoning provide a logical transition from the Sandpiper neighborhood to the more intensely developed properties closer to Kanis Road.
