E. STAFF ANALYSIS:
Pauline Myers, owner of the 2.04 acres located at 11701 West 36t" Street, is
requesting to rezone the property from "R-2" Single Family District to "04,
General Office District. The rezoning is proposed to utilize the existing
residential structure as an office use.
There is currently a one-story rock and frame single family residential
structure located within the south half of the property. There are several

accessory buildings (garage and barn -type structure) located on the east
and south sides of the residential structure.
The general area contains a mixture of zoning and a large amount of
undeveloped property. The Church at Rock Creek development and
undeveloped R-2 zoned property are located across West 36th Street to the
north and northeast. There are two (2) single family residences in front of
the church property along the north side of West 36th Street. There are
single family residences on large lots to the east and west, with
undeveloped R-2 and MF-12 zoned property further east. Undeveloped OS,
R-2 and C-2 zoned property is located to the south.
The City's Future Land Use Plan designates this property as "Mixed Office
Commercial". The requested 0-3 zoning does not require an amendment to
the Land Use Plan.
Staff is supportive of the requested zoning. Staff views the request as
reasonable. The church property to the north is zoned POD. One (1) of the
residential structure in front of the church was recently rezoned to 0-3.
There is also a large 0-2 zoned tract to the west, at the intersection of West
36th Street and Bowman Road. Staff believes rezoning this 2.04 acre
property to 0-3 and continuing the office zoning pattern in this immediate
area will have no adverse impact on the adjacent properties or the general
area.
F. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the requested 0-3 rezoning.
