(00-89) Senior Staff Planner Kuenzel presented the staff report. The subject property was rezoned to reflect 33 acres of future duplex development along the Graham Road frontage with 17 acres of single family to the north adjacent to the existing Edelweiss neighborhood. The remaining 10 acres are still zoned A -O and are reflected in the Master Development Plan as additional single family development — a rezoning request is pending for the 10 acres. The original rezoning in 1996 posed several issues such as traffic and emergency services, both with the City and with surrounding property owners. The applicant at that time addressed the concerns through the rezoning process. All of the conditions apply at the time the property is platted. The developer has chosen to route the collectors through his property which is preferable to the developer, the existing residents to the west, and to Staff. However, the rezoning applicant was also requested to incorporate the existing Arnold and Schaffer roads into his subdivision and modify them so that the City would not have a dual system of collectors — one meeting current street standards and one remaining substandard. The applicant intends to use the existing Arnold and Schaffer roadways to meet some of the rezoning conditions. These areas will be used for the required Hasselt/Aster loop, to extend the required collector, to provide the required buffering, and provide a bike path connecting the existing bike path that currently ends near the northeast corner of the property. The details of some of the requirements is required to be submitted at the time of preliminary or final plat. At this time, Staff has reviewed the Master Development Plan to be reasonably certain that all requirements can be met. Staff recommends approval. Commissioner Warren motioned for approval which was seconded by Commissioner Williams. The motion passed 7-0.
