will be following this item with a rezoning for uses to include
commercial, single-family detached, open space, and duplex
residential on the property.

Regular Agenda Item 8
Creek Meadows Comprehensive Plan Amendment
To: Glenn Brown, City Manager
From: Bob Cowell, AICP, Director of Planning & Development Services
Agenda Caption: Public hearing, presentation, possible action, and discussion on an
ordinance amending the Comprehensive Plan from Rural Residential to Planned
Development for 293.233 acres located along Greens Prairie Trail generally located between
Greens Prairie Road West and Royder Ridge.
Recommendation(s): The Planning and Zoning Commission voted unanimously to
recommend approval at their April 17th meeting. Staff recommended approval.
Summary:
1. Changed or changing conditions in the subject area or the City: The subject tract
was included in the recent exempt areas annexation that became effective on March 29,
2008. The property began developing in 2006 as Creek Meadows subdivision and the
approved Master Plan shows single-family detached, duplex, commercial, and open
space uses. City Council approved the extension of sewer service to this area in 2005 to
support the proposed uses. The Planned Development designation is being pursued so
that the owner may rezone the property in compliance with his Master Plan and continue
to develop.
2. Compatibility with the remainder of the Comprehensive Plan: The dense, urban
style development is not compatible with the rural residential and large agricultural
development in the area, and with the Rural Residential designation. The City may also
need to look at upgrading the thoroughfare classification of Greens Prairie Road West
and Greens Prairie Trail to accommodate this density.
