HomeMy WebLinkAboutMinutesStephen Chambers of 708 Hasselt informed the Commission that nothing has changed since the request .was considered by both the Commission and City Council. The traffic and property value issues are still the same. Through the comprehensive planning process, the City is plamm~g on putting higher density .uses in the Wolf Pen Creek area where they should be and not this far south close to a single family neighborhood. Andy Bland of 703 Hasselt explained that he is opposed to the rezoning request primarily due to traffic concerns. The traffic will not be stopped by an emergency access point and the traffic from the proposed. high density residentiaLuse will increase the traffic through the Edelweiss Subdivision. Nancy Lawson of 702 Hasselt explained .that many of the neighbors who .originally attended the meetings and wrote letters against the rezoning are still .opposed to the request. She also expressed concern that in the beginning, two bedroom duplexes were proposed and now they have been expanded to three bedrooms. Chairman Hawthorne closed the public hearing. Commissioner Smith moved to recommended approval of a rezoning request of 32.72 acres located on the northeast corner of the Schaffer and Graham Road intersection from A-O Agricultural Open to. R-2 Duplexes. Commissioner Lightfoot seconded the motion. Commissioner Garner expressed concern with the emergency access drive and questioned if the City could post signs stating that the .access is for emergency vehicles only and others caught using the access will be charged a fine. City Planner Kee stated that the access could be signed so that it is illegal for regular traffic to use the emergency access. The motion to recommend approval. of the. rezoning request passed unopposed (4 - 0). AGENDA ITEM N0.3: Consideration of a final replat of lots A, B, C, , E, 118, 119 and 120 of block 9 in the Southwood Valley. Section 5-A Subdivision. (96-200) Graduate Civil Engineer Homeyer presented the staff report and explained that the final plat will continue on to City Council since there is a transfer of ownership proposed by the applicant along the drainage right-of--way. The purpose of this final plat is to resubdivide 2.05 acres .into six lots zoned C-N Neighborhood Commercial.. As a part of this replat, 0.14 acres of a City owned. drainage and utility right-of--way will become part of lot 118R. This transfer of property.is a result of staff negotiations with the property owner to place the access drive to the Longmire Education Center in a position opposite of the drive to the Pepper Tree Apartments. The property owner's .initial request ,was to position this driveway within the drainage right-of--way; however, staff felt this .would create a potential problem due to a private drive being located within a public right-of--way. This drainage right-of-way is rather large at this. location and this transfer of ownership will not affect the City's access for maintenance or the ability to monitor the channel. This transfer will add the property'to the tax base and will reduce the amount of area maintained by the City. Staff recommended approval of the final plat with the comments identified at the Presubmission'Conference. Representative of the applicant, Mike Hester of Hester Engineering, approached the Commission and offered to answer any questions pertaining to the final plat. Commissioner Lightfoot moved to recommend approval of the final plat of lots A, B, C, D, E, 118, 119 and 120, block 9 in the Southwood Valley Section S-A Subdivision with staff recommendations. Commissioner Smith seconded the. motion which passed unopposed (4 - 0). P & Z Minutes May 16, 1996. Page 2 of S ,.
