AGENDA MEMORANDUM
MEETING DATE: February 23, 2009
FROM: Bill Wiley, AICP, Community Development Director
SUBJECT: Ordinance for rezoning for Fred Allen from City R-2 (Medium Density Residential) to City SPUD (Small Planned Unit Development)
Staff Recommendation:
The Planning staff and Planning Commission recommend approval of the proposed rezoning for the subject property from City R-2 (Medium Density Residential) to City SPUD (Small Planned Unit Development).
Analysis:
The project site is approximately .14 acres. The property is generally located on the northeast corner of West Main Street and North Oakland Street as shown on the attached General Location Map. The present zoning for this property is City R-2 (Medium Density Residential). Currently, the property is a single family residential home and the proposed use is for an office. The surrounding zoning designations are City R-2 (Medium Density Residential) to the north, south, east, and west. The surrounding future land use designations are Low Density Residential to the north, south, east and west.
The proposed zoning district of City SPUD (Small Planned Unit Development) is compatible with the adjacent and nearby properties in the area and with the existing future land use designations of Low Density Residential.
The existing land uses surrounding the property are single family residential to the north and east, multi-family residential to the west and undeveloped to the south.
Connection to City utilities will be at the owner’s expense.
By a vote of 4 to 0 on January 22, 2009, the Planning Commission voted to recommend approval.
Options:
1. Approve the proposed rezoning to City SPUD (Small Planned Unit Development), thereby allowing consistent zoning and development standards for this transition area.
2. Other such action as the Commission may deem appropriate.
Fiscal Impact:
There is no fiscal impact to the City.

However, no final development order (site plan and building permits) shall be granted for a proposed development until there is a finding that all public facilities and services required for the development have sufficient capacity at or above the adopted level of service (LOS) to accommodate the impacts of the development, or that improvements necessary to bring facilities up to their adopted LOS will be in place concurrent with the impacts of the development.
A. Utilities
1) Projected Capacities
a. The City’s utility planning efforts draw upon phasing, capacity and service requirements, based upon information provided by the applicant. The City develops its plans consistent with sound engineering principles, prudent fiscal practices and due regard for regulatory compliance.
b. The development will require construction of new distribution mains, since existing facilities in the service area are not adequate. Should the developer wish to accelerate the construction of such facilities to provide service, the developer will bear the cost of design, permitting and construction. Any such facilities must be constructed in a fashion consistent with the City’s master plans and to the City standards and specifications.
c. The City is in the process of Consumptive Use Permit renewal. The application provides for anticipated demands due to this and other potential development
B. Commitment of Capacity
There are no previous commitments of any existing or planned excess capacity.
C. Ability to Provide Services
1) The City intends to provide water, wastewater and reclaimed water services within its service area for the foreseeable future.

3) The City has completed an impact fee study, based in part on the CIP in order to assure adequate and appropriate funding for required improvements. The combination of master planning and CIP planning has allowed the City to issue bonds to fund new potable water facilities and substantial reuse facilities, among other infrastructure improvements.
