HomeMy WebLinkAboutZ-4637 Staff AnalysisApril 22, 1986 Item No. 8 - Z-4637 Owner: Kathleen Hope Applicant: James A. and Ginger L. Mansfield Location: 8720 and 8720 1/2 Stanton Road Request: Rezone from "R-2" to 110-3" Purpose: Office Size: 0.4 acres Existing Use: Office (nonconforming) SURROUNDING LAND USE AND ZONING: North - Single Family, Zoned "R-2" South - Mobile Home Park, Zoned "R-2" East - Vacant, Zoned "R-2" West - Mobile Home Park, Zoned "R-2" PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS: 1. The proposal is to rezone the site to "0-3" to accommodate an existing office. The property is located on Stanton Road north of Baseline Road, in an area that has a number of different land uses. In the immediate vicinity, the uses include single family, a mobile home park, a school, auto repair garage and some office space. The property in question.abuts a mobile home park on two sides, and a single family residence on the north. Across Stanton Road to the east, there is some vacant land that is in the process of being rezoned (Item No. 7 - Z-4636 on this agenda). Based on the existing land use pattern, it appears that both the zoning and use are compatible with the area. 2. The site is approximately 1/2 acre in size and is occupied by two structures. 3. Stanton Road is identified as a collector on the Master Street Plan. The recommended right-of-way for a collector is 60 feet so some additional dedication will probably required because the existing survey reflects a right-of-way of 50 feet for Stanton Road. April 22, 1986 Item No. 8 - Continued 4. There have been no adverse comments received from the reviewing agencies as of this writing. 5. There are no legal issues. 6. There is no documented neighborhood position on the site. The property was annexed to the City in April 1985. 7. This location is part of the Geyer Springs East Plan area. The plan has not been formally adopted by the City, but the recommended land use for the site is mixed density residential. The plan also shows the land to the east across Stanton Road for commercial use and also the northwest corner of Baseline and Stanton Road for commercial. Because of this proposed land use pattern and the existing uses, staff feels that "0-3" is appropriate for this particular tract and the rezoning should only have a minimal impact, if any, on the neighborhood. An office use and reclassification could function as a transition area between Baseline Road and.the neighborhood to the north. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the "0-3" rezoning as filed. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: The applicant was present.. There were no objectors. The Commisison voted to recommend approval of the 110-3" rezoning as requested. The vote 9 ayes, 0 noes and 2 absent.
