Phillips 5817 and 5819 Big Oak Lane Rezone from "R-2" to "C-3" Commercial 0.45 acres Single family SURROUNDING LAND USE AND ZONING: North - Industrial, zoned 11I-2" South - Vacant, zoned 11C-3" East - Commercial, zoned 11C-1" West - Commercial, zoned 11I-2" STAFF ANALYSIS: -The property under consideration is two residential lots situated on Big Oak Lane, and the request is to rezone the site from "R-2" to 11C-311. There is one single family residence on each lot; one is occupied and the other is vacant. Big Oak Lane is located approximately 700 feet south of West 65th Street and east of Geyer Springs Road. Zoning in the general vicinity is a mixture of "R-211, "R-4", "C-1" and 11I-211. The property in question abuts "C-1" on the east, 11C-3" on the south and 11I-2" on the west. Across Big Oak Lane the zoning is 11I-2" with a large warehouse facility on the property. Other uses found in the neighborhood include single family, duplex, office, commercial and other industrial uses. Directly the south of the two lots, the property is vacant and the southwest corner of Geyer Springs and West 65th Street is undeveloped at this time. On the adopted plan for the area, 65th Street East, the east property line of the site is also the commercial line on the land use plan. The area between Geyer Springs Road and the existing "C-1" is shown for commercial use, so the proposed "C-3" rezoning conforms to the plan. It appears that previous zoning actions have had very little impact on the 1 March 27, 1990 Item No. 4�- Z75:304 (Continued) residential uses and it is anticipated that the requested commercial reclassification will have no effect on the area. The site is surrounded by nonresidential zoning and the existing "C-1" provides a good transition between the proposed "C-3" and the residential properties to the east. ENGINEERING COMMENTS: A right-of-way of 60 feet is needed for Big Oak Lane and it appears the existing right-of-way is deficient. Dedication of additional right-of-way will be required. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the "C-3" request as filed. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: (March 27, 1990) The applicant was present. There were no objectors and the item was placed on the consent agenda. A motion was made to recommend approval of the "C-3" -rezoning request. The motion was approved by a vote of 10 ayes, 0 nays and 1 absent. 2
