FILE NO.: Z-9055
Single family residences, including mobile/manufactured homes, are located
south of the subject property. Two (2) new duplex structures are located
immediately to the north, with single family residences further north. Vacant lots,
single family homes and duplexes are located to the west. Undeveloped
property, zoned OS and MF-12, is located across Junior Deputy Road to the

The City's Future Land Use Plan designates this property as Residential Low

plan.

reasonable. The lot is comprised of one (1) platted single family lot. One (1)
duplex structure will only be a minor increase in the original platted density. New
duplex structures have been recently developed within this neighborhood, at the
northeast corner of Wilson Road and West 22"J Street, south along the west side
of Wilson Road, and along Vilest 20th Street (at Nichols and Jr. Deputy Roads).

in -fill type, development for this general area south of West 18t" Street. Staff
believes rezoning this property to R-4 will have no adverse impact on the adjacent
properties or the general area.
