Staff requests that the existing site be added to the request. This can be accomplished by simply adding the lot and block legal description of the existing site to the application. Answer #1 : The Cypress Grove school site has been added to the rezoning map at the request of the City. It has been requested to be rezoned from A-O, Agricultural Open to R- 1, Single Family Residential. Comment #2:The Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map designates a portion of the new school site as Floodplain & Streams. Staff will support the request as being in compliance with the Comprehensive Plan if that portion of the property remains zoned A-O. It has been noted in the planning files of the surrounding development that flood studies, including on the proposed school site, have been performed and have identified 100-year floodplain in the area.
