No specific plans have been submitted other than the proposed use of the property is to be an office. The property is currently occupied by a single family structure and the immmediate plans are to utilize it for a rental unit. The owner of this site also owns the "0-1" tract directly to the south and that property is being used for a clinic. The office potential of the property is somewhat limited because of its size and being able to accommodate the necessary parking. The owner may have plans to incorporate this piece with a tract to the south and provide additional parking or some related activity. 2. The site is a typical residential lot with a single family structure on it. 3. Chicot Road is identified as a minor arterial on the Master Street Plan which requires a right-of-way of 80 feet. The existing right-of-way is deficient, so dedication of additional right-of-way will be necessary. 4. There have been no adverse comments received from the reviewing agencies at this time. June 26, 1984 Item No. D - Continued 5. There are no legal issues. 6. The site was annexed in 1981 as part of the south central island. There is no documented neighborhood position on this particular property, but with the previous "0-1" rezoning, there was some neighborhood concern. 7. The property is not identified for office use on the Suburban Development Plan and the staff is opposed to the rezoning request. Staff position on the previous "0-1" rezoning was also one of nonsupport because the location was viewed as being inappropriate for office zoning and development. Even with the approval of the "0-1" to the south, the plan was never amended to recognize the change. Staff is concerned if additional rezonings are granted that it will be hard to establish a zoning line at a given point and this could lead to an undesirable land use pattern on the west and east sides of Chicot Road. The existing office zoning should be confined to the present boundaries and not be allowed to expand north or south. There is some "0-1" property in the block that is still being used for single family so it appears that the demand for additional office zoning is questionable. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends denial of the request. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: (May 29, 1984) The applicant was not present but had requested a 30 -day deferral. A motion to defer the item for 30 days (June 26, 1984) passed by a vote of 10 ayes, 0 noes and 1 absent. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION (June 26, 1984) The applicant had requested another deferral. This was the applicant's second request to defer the item. A motion to defer the rezoning to July 24, 1984, passed'by a vote of 10 ayes, 0 noes and 1 absent.
