D. LAND USE ELEMENT:
Planning Division: This request is in the Chenal Planning District. The Land Use
Plan shows Residential Low Density (RL) and Suburban Office (SO) for the
requested area. Residential Low Density category provides for single family
homes at densities not to exceed 6 dwelling units per acre. Such residential
development is typically characterized by conventional single family homes, but
may also include patio or garden homes and cluster homes, provided that the
density remain less than 6 units per acre. The Suburban Office category
provides for low intensity development of office or office parks in close proximity
to lower density residential areas to assure compatibility. A Planned Zoning
District is required. The application is to change an area from R-2 (Single -Family
District) to C-1 (Neighborhood Commercial District) to allow for the future
commercial development of the land. The site is within the Highway 10 Design
Overlay District.
Master Street Plan: To the south is Cantrell Road and it is shown as a Principal
Arterial on the Master Street Plan. A Principal Arterial is to serve through traffic
and to connect major traffic generators or activity centers within the urbanized
area. Entrances and exits should be limited to minimize negative effects of traffic
and pedestrians on Cantrell Road since it is a Principal Arterial. This street may
require dedication of right-of-way and may require street improvements for
entrances and exits to the site.
Bicycle Plan: There is a Class I Bike Path is shown along Cantrell Road. A Bike
Path is to be a paved path physically separate for the use of bicycles.
Additional right-of-way or an easement is recommended. Nine -foot paths are
recommended to allow for pedestrian use as well (replacing the sidewalk).

The City's Future Land Use Plan designates this property as "RL" Residential
Low Density and "SO" Suburban Office. A proposed Land Use Plan amendment
to "NC" Neighborhood Commercial is a separate item on this agenda.
Staff is supportive of the proposed C-1 zoning. C-1 is designed to accommodate
limited retail development within or adjacent to neighborhood areas. Although
the site is adjacent to a school campus, the limited uses permitted under C-1
should assure that there is no impact on the school.
