SUBJECT: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ZONING RESTRICTIONS TO REZONE
APPROXIMATELY 1.4-ACRES LOCATED AT 1003 LIBERTY LANE
FROM R-1, SINGLE-FAMILY ZONE DISTRICT TO R-5, MIXED
RESIDENTIAL AND OFFICE ZONE DISTRICT
SUMMARY:
The applicant is requesting to rezone approximately 1.4-acres from R-1, Single-Family
Residential Zone District to R-5, Mixed Residential and Office Zone District to facilitate
the development of two affordable multifamily residential structures and repurpose the
existing church as a leasing office and community clubhouse.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
The applicant is concurrently requesting amend the Pueblo Regional Comprehensive
eighborhood
(CP-24-01).
BACKGROUND:
Archway Communities owns the property located at 1003 Liberty Lane and they plan to
develop two multifamily residential structures along the northern and western property
lines and preserve the existing church, which is centrally located on the site. The
subject site is located adjacent to the east side of Bonforte Boulevard, which is
and Design Standards, a minor arterial roadway provides for high-capacity traffic and
th-use
development is appropriate adjacent to a minor arterial roadway. Commercial and
professional offices exist to the north, east, west, and south of the site. Three-story
multifamily residential uses are located to the northwest of the site, and one single-
family residential structure sits adjacent to the southeast corner of the site. The
surrounding neighborhood is considered a mixed-use neighborhood containing a
mixture of multifamily residential uses, non-residential uses, and one single-family
residential use in the immediate neighborhood. Due to its location and surrounding
development, the R-1 zoning appears to be unsuitable and detrimental to future
redevelopment efforts of this site. Rezoning to an R-5 Zone District will facilitate the
development of two, three-story multifamily residential structures, containing a
combined total of 24 one- and two-bedroom dwelling units for households that earn 30-
80 percent Area Median Income (AMI). The applicants intend to repurpose the
services, which will bring life back to a site that has fallen into disrepair since the
closure of the Christ Congregational Church.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
There are no financial implications for the City.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning and Zoning Commission, at their August 14, 2024 Regular Meeting, voted
7-0 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 property will 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.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval of the Ordinance.
