Keat ng, CP TO REZONE 20 ACRES FROM Planning & Develop ent Director RMH-6 AND RM -3 TO RM -6 AND RS -3 FMS FROM: Richard M. Shearer, REFERENCES: Chief, Long -Range Planning " It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at their regular meeting of December 16, 1986. DESCRIPTION & CONDITIONS The County is initiating a request to rezone approximately 15 acres located on the north side of Oslo Road and approximately one-quarter mile west of 27th Avenue from RMH-6, Mobile Home Residential District (up to 6 units/acre), and RM -3, Multiple -Family Residential District (up to 3 units/acre), to RM -6, Multiple -Family Residential District (up to 6 units/acre); and to rezone approximately 5 acres located 600 feet north of Oslo Road and approximately one-quarter mile west of 27th Avenue from RMH-6 to RS -3, Single -Family Residential District. On January 14, 1986, the Board of County Commissioners held the first of two required public hearings on the nonresidential zoning conversion ordinance. At that public hearing, several individuals who owned property on the north side of Oslo Road objected to their property being rezoned from C-1, Commercial District, to RM -3 because they felt it would be unfeasible to develop the property at that density. The Board did rezone the property to RM -3 on January 29th. However, the Board instructed the staff to initiate a Comprehensive Plan amendment request so that the Board could later consider rezoning properties in this area from RM -3 to RM -6. On July 29, 1986, the Board of County Commissioners amended the Comprehensive Plan to increase the allowable residential density from three to six units per acre in the west part of the Oslo Road MXD, Mixed -Use District. On November 13, 1986, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted 6 -to -0 to recommend approval of this request. ALTERNATIVES & ANALYSIS In this section, an analysis of the reasonableness of the appli- cation will be presented. The analysis will include a descrip- tion of the current and future land uses of the site and sur- rounding areas, potential impacts on the transportation and utility systems, and any significant adverse impacts on environ- mental quality. Existing Land Use Pattern The subject property consists of three parcels of land which are undeveloped. However,. the middle parcel of land which extends one-quarter mile north of Oslo Road, is the site of a proposed mobile home park which received site plan approval several years ago and was never completed. The owners of this property installed some roads but have abandoned the idea of developing this property for a mobile home park. North of the subject 52
