SUBJECT: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ZONING RESTRICTIONS OF LOT 1 OF
THE PUEBLO SPRINGS APARTMENTS SUBDIVISION FROM A-1,
AGRICULTURAL ONE ZONE DISTRICT TO R-5, MULTIPLE-
RESIDENTIAL AND OFFICE ZONE DISTRICT
SUMMARY:
The applicant is requesting to rezone Lot One (15.01 acres) of the Pueblo Springs
Apartments Subdivision from A-1, Agricultural One to R-5, Multiple-Residential and Office
District to facilitate the development of a new apartment complex.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
City Council approved Ordinance No. 10055 on November 22, 2021.
BACKGROUND:
The subject property was annexed into the city in November of 2021 and rezoned A-1 as
an interim zoning classification until the time of development, as allowed by the approved
Annexation Agreement (rezoning case Z-21-12). The current request is to rezone the
western 15 acres of the property, proposed Lot 1, Pueblo Springs Apartments
Subdivision, to R-5 Multiple Residential and Office district for the purposes of constructing
twelve multifamily residential structures containing a total of 199 dwelling units.
“Residence, multifamily” is a Use By Right in the proposed R-5 Zone District. The area is
designated as Urban Residential Future Land Use Category, which allows for garden
apartments (low-rise apartment structures) along collector and arterial roads. The
proposed Pueblo Springs Apartments are situated at the southeast corner of West Pueblo
Boulevard (expressway) and West 31st Street (collector) and are three stories with ample
outdoor recreation amenities. The surrounding area is home to two large multifamily
developments, a senior living facility and market rate apartment complex. The adjacent
properties to the south, east, and west are all vacant prairie and as such there is no
negative impact to surrounding residential neighborhoods. The R-5 zoning, and proposed
multifamily development are well situated for direct access to Pueblo Boulevard and
Highway 50. The applicant has provided a commercial site plan detailing the 199-unit
apartment complex. The western most portion of the rezoning site will be reserved for
open space and utilize the bluff as a noise barrier from Pueblo Boulevard. The apartment
complex will also have a clubhouse, pool, and walking trails; combined with the bluff, the
site provides the minimum 20-percent Landscape Open Space. The proposed rezoning
is in conformance with the Pueblo Regional Comprehensive Plan and is compatible with
the surrounding multifamily development.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
There are no financial implications for the City.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning and Zoning Commission, at their December 8, 2021, Regular Meeting,
voted 7-0 to recommend approval.
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS:
The Planning Department sent a 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 property would not be zoned in
accordance with the Pueblo Municipal Code.
Upon request of City Council, the Ordinance could be returned to the Planning and Zoning
Commission for consideration of proposed modifications.
