TO: James E. Chandler County Administrator • 1,p Dobe=t - M.Keafting f PCP Community Development D THROUGH: Stan Boling, AICP Planning Director FROM: John W. McCoy, AICP Senior Planner, Current Development DATE: April 41 1994 SUBJECT: St. Edwards School Inc.'s Request for Special Exception Use and Conceptual Plan Approval to Expand the Existing St. Edwards Upper School Campus It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at its regular meeting of April 12, 1994. BACKGROUND: Masteller & Moler, Inc. has submitted an application for special exception use and conceptual plan approval on behalf of St. Edwards School Inc. to expand the existing St. Edwards Upper School. The school is located at 1895 St. Edwards Drive. Since the subject property is zoned RS -3, expansion of the existing educational facility requires special exception use approval. The expansion is proposed in four phases to be built over the next two years. Recently, St. Edwards School, Inc. entered into a proposed land swap with Sandpointe West L.C. to trade approximately 4 acres of riverfront property owned by St. Edwards for lots 1-12 in the Sandpointe West Subdivision. St. Edwards proposes to use this additional property to expand its existing upper school campus. Accordingly,, Sandpointe West L.C., under a separate application that has been approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission, is proposing to plat additional riverfront lots with the land being swapped for lots 1-12. The proposed land swap would convert some existing St. Edwards river frontage to riverfront lots and would move the St. Edwards property boundary north, up to West Sandpointe Lane which is a local residential street. At its March 10', 1994, meeting, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted 2 to 1 to recommend that the Board of County Commissioners approve the special exception use and conceptual plan requests, with an added condition that all buildings be limited to one story and be set back 75' from the new north property line (see attachment #4). This condition was added to the -two conditions recommended by staff at the end of this report. Because it takes at least 4 affirmative votes of the 7 member Planning and Zoning Commission to approve an action, and because the approval recommendation passed with only 2 affirmative votes, no official Planning and Zoning Commission recommendation has been made to the Board of County Commissioners.
