(04-82) Applicant: Phyllis Hobson, Nantucket, Ltd., property owner Staff Recommendations: Staff recommends approval of the rezoning. Item Summary: The applicant is requesting rezoning in order to develop the property as single-family residential. The property was zoned PDD-H in 1997. The PDD expired in 2003 and the zoning reverted back to A-O Agricultural-Open. Staff sees the purpose of this PDD reinstating the previously approved land uses in the PDD-H. Changes from the previously approved PDD-H zoning include a street connection to Nantucket Drive. Requested PDD Uses: Single Family Residential lots (similar to South Hampton Phase 1), buffers, and landscape reserves. The proposal includes 43 single family lots with an average lot size of just over 1 /4 acre. If the PDD zoning is approved, the lot configuration and street layout will go before the Design Review Board for approval. Comprehensive Plan Considerations: The request is in compliance with the Land Use Plan, which designates this property as Single-Family Residential Medium Density. Nantucket Drive is shown as a minor collector on the Thoroughfare Plan. The property is surrounded by R-1 to the southwest, developed Nantucket in the ETJ to the south, developed South Hampton Phase 1 to the east, and developed A-O across Nantucket Drive to the northwest. Item Background: The property was annexed into the City in 1996 and zoned A-O Agricultural Open at that time. In 1997 the City Council gave direction for City staff to initiate rezoning of the property to PDD-H. An amendment to the PDD ordinance was approved in August 2001 that placed an expiration date of R: IHTLTRIPZLTRIPRODIPZ20041P0009416. DOC Created on 41112004 3:43 PM 24 months on all PDDs, therefore, the PDD zoning expired in August 2003. According to City Ordinance, the property reverted back to its previous zoning, A- O Agricultural Open. South Hampton Phase One, platted in 2000, is still zoned PDD-H. Nantucket Phase 7 and Fairhaven Cove were rezoned from A-O Agricultural Open to R-1 Single Family earlier this year. Commission Action Options: The Commission acts as a recommending body on the question of rezoning, which will be ultimately decided by City Council. The Commission options are: 1. Recommend approval of rezoning as submitted; 2. Recommend a less intense zoning classification; 3. Recommend denial; 4. Table indefinitely; or, 5. Defer action to a specified date.

Staff recommends approval. The property was zoned PDD-H in 1997. That PDD expired in 2003 and the zoning reverted back to A-0 Agricultural-Open. Staff sees the purpose of this PDD as reinstating the previously approved land uses in that PDD-H. The uses requested include: Single Family Residential lots (similar to South Hampton Phase 1), buffers, and landscape reserves.
