9.A.2. PUBLIC HEARING -PROPOSED ORDINANCE AMENDING THE <br />ZONING ORDINANCE AND THE ACCOMPANYING ZONING MAP <br />FROM A-1 AND RS -3 TO PD FOR THE PROPERTY LOCATED ON <br />THE NORTH SIDE OF 26TH STREET, EAST OF 66TH AVENUE - <br />GARY ROSEN, REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT & INVESTMENT <br />-26 TH STREET RESIDENTIAL <br />PROOF OF PUBLICATION OF ADVERTISEMENT FOR HEARING IS ON FILE IN THE <br />OFFICE OF THE CLERK TO THE BOARD <br />Planning Director Stan Boling reviewed the project for the Board using the Land Use Map <br />and stated that notice of the project was sent to property owners within 300 feet of the development. <br />Notice was also published in the Press Journal. There was an error in the mailing in that owners in <br />the Oak Chase Subdivision on the east side did not receive their notices as quickly as they would <br />have liked. These mailings are done as a courtesy, there is no requirement that it be done. <br />County Attorney Will Collins confirmed that mailing of the notice is a courtesy of the <br />Department and does not invalidate the notice. The Board is free to proceed unless the applicant is <br />willing to defer or withdraw his application. <br />Director Boling noted that this is a conceptual plan which was approved by staff and by the <br />Planning & Zoning Commission. There have been some concerns voiced by neighboring residents <br />about the bridge over Lateral A Canal and the Public Works Department has advised that <br />improvement of that bridge is not required but improvement is planned in FY 2004-05. Residents <br />also expressed concern about drainage to the north of the project. However, this is simply a <br />conceptual plan and drainage will not be addressed until the detailed engineering is presented in <br />conjunction with the next phase of the approval. The applicant has exceeded the environmental <br />preservation requirements. <br />Director Boling then covered the buffering requirements and discussed the 31St Street <br />rights-of-way for a half street which require the developer either to dedicate the remaining <br />rights-of-way or to come back to the Board and apply for abandonment with adjacent property <br />owners being notified. Staff is recommending approval with the conditions set forth in the <br />memorandum. <br />APRIL 22, 2003 13 <br />
