PACHECO, ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER FOR COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT TITLE AN ORDINANCE CHANGING ZONING RESTRICTIONS FROM B -2 TO R -2U COVERING A PARCEL OF LAND COMMONLY KNOWN AS LOT 18, BLOCK 1, VENTANA FILING NO. 1 ISSUE Shall City Council approve a request to rezone the property from B -2, Subregional Business District, to R -2U, Single - Family Residential District, to facilitate Residential Development? RECOMMENDATION The Planning and Zoning Commission, at their September 12, 2007 regular meeting, voted 7 -0 to recommend approval. BACKGROUND The applicant is proposing to rezone the 1.45 -acre parcel of land located within the southern most portion of the Ventana Filing No. 1 Subdivision to facilitate residential development. According to the 2002 Ventana Master Plan, this lot was reserved for commercial purposes in a mixed -use development. Since that time the developer has determined that residences would be the optimal use for this lot. The R -21J Zone District will permit single - family residences at a medium density and allow minor deviations from the standard setback regulations. The district also requires that a homeowner's association be created to provide for the maintenance of common areas, private open spaces and other neighborhood assets. FINANCIAL IMPACT None.
