CC: Sam Azad, City Manager
VIA: Brenda Armijo, Acting City Clerk
FROM: Steven Meier, Director of Planning and Community Development
SUBJECT: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ZONING RESTRICTIONS FOR PROPERTY
COMMONLY KNOWN AS EVRAZ ANNEXATION NO. 1 AND 2
SUMMARY:
The applicant is requesting to rezone the subject properties from County I-3 to City I-3,
Heavy Industrial District
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
None.
BACKGROUND:
The subject area is approximately 49 acres, located within the boundary of the Evraz
property, east of I-25, at the terminus of Indiana Avenue. The portion of the Evraz property
that is being annexed and rezoned is all located to the south of the internal private street,
Harlem Street. The applicant is proposing to annex the subject property into the City of
Pueblo (P&Z case A-18-01 No. 1 and 2); therefore, in compliance with C.R.S. 31-12-
115(2), the property must be rezoned within 90 days following the annexation of the
property into the City. The applicant is proposing to rezone the property to City I-3, Heavy
Industrial Zone District to facilitate future heavy industrial uses.
If the applicant uses the property for the disposal of nonhazardous solid waste generated
on-site in compliance with Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment Solid
Waste Regulations, they will be required to obtain a Special Use Permit through the
Zoning Board of Appeals.
In compliance with C.R.S. 31-12-115, City Council may not approve the rezoning of the
property or the Special Use Permit, prior to the approval of the Ordinance annexing the
property into the City.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
There are no financial implications for the City.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning and Zoning Commission, at their September 12, 2018 Regular Meeting,
voted 6-0 (San Filippo-Rosser absent) to recommend approval.
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS:
The Planning Department sent out Notice of the Planning and Zoning Commission Public
Hearing to all property owners located within 300 feet of the subject property.
A Public Notice poster was placed on the subject property 15 days prior to the Public
Hearing.
ALTERNATIVES:
If City Council does not approve this Ordinance, the current zoning would remain.
Upon request of City Council, the Ordinance could be returned to the Planning and Zoning
Commission for consideration of proposed modifications.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval of the Ordinance.
