Item: Public Hearing and. Consideration: of a rezoning for Woodcreek .Section 8located on the
east side of Stonebrook Drive immediately south of Woodcreek, Section 3. The request is to
change from PUD#2 to R-:1B. (99-117). As a part of this rezoning request there is a final plat
containing 12 single family lots.
Applicant: TAC REALTY,. INC.
Item Summary: This phase. is a continuation of the Woodcreek single family development. In
1997 Council rezoned this property from R-1 single family to Planned Unit Development (PUD)
#2 with an associated plat containing i3 lots. A condition of approval was that the street be a
public. right-of--way rather than a private street,.. as is typical in planned unit development districts.
The current request is to reduce the number of lots to 12 and rezone to R-1B, which is asingle-
family district with a arger minimum lot size of 8,000 SF. Because this ispresently a PUD, the
plat is a part of the request and any proposed change to the plat must be .considered as a rezoning.
The developer is reducing the number of lots due to the increased demand for larger single family
lots.
The request is in compliance with the. land use plan. A variance to the right-of--way width is being
requested and supported by staff. Due to the design of the street with a common area in-the center
of the cul-de-sac, there. is adequate space. for service provision. A 10' utility easement should be
added around the common area for curb. maintenance.
Staff Recommendations: Staff recommends approval as submitted with the variance to the right-
of-way width.
Related Advisory Board Recommendations: NA
