Title
Public Hearing - Zoning Request Z14-020 - Modification of currently approved site plan - 0.46 Acres - Land Lot 561 - 1386 Marston Street - Joshua Bonner
Body
ISSUE: The applicant is requesting to amend the currently approved site plan to incorporate 6,996 sq. ft. of the open space into lot #8 for personal use and deed 2,000 sq. ft. (the unfenced area) to the HOA to meet minimum open space requirement for the subdivision. Zoning condition #3 of Zoning Case Z06-010 requires 200 sq. ft. of open space per lot within the subdivision. The 2,000 sq. ft. of open space proposed to be deeded to the HOA is enough area to satisfy this zoning requirement. The applicant has provided a letter signed by all the homeowners within the subdivision stating that they are supportive of the zoning request. The HOA is still actively working to acquire ownership of the detention area from the original developer.
BACKGROUND: The subject property was originally rezoned from R-15 to RAD-Conditional by the Mayor and Council on June 19, 2006 by a vote of 5-1.
RECOMMENDATION/REQUESTED ACTION: Community Development recommends approval of the zoning amendment to modify the currently approved site plan with the following condition:
1. Approval of the zoning amendment shall be conditioned upon the development of the property in substantial compliance with the submitted site plan dated 6/23//2014.
