Pate, Director of Current Planning Date: May 20, 2005 Subject: Rezoning for Lane (RZN 05- 1452 — Tract A) RECOMMENDATION Planning Staff recommends approval of an ordinance rezoning approximately 24. 191 acres of property from R-A, Residential Agricultural, to RSF-4, Residential Single Family, 4 units per acre. BACKGROUND The subject property contains 24. 191 -acres owned by the Lanes. It is located north of Huntsville Road (Hwy 16 East) and west of Deerfield Way Subdivision in southeast Fayetteville. With approval of ANX 05- 1470, this property will be zoned R-A, Residential Agricultural. The applicant owns an additional 6.68 acres of property zoned C- 1 , Neighborhood Commercial to the south and currently within the City limits. A rezoning application was submitted to the Planning Division to rezone all 30.871 acres RSF-4. The Planning Commission separated its consideration of the property proposed to be rezoned, and made separate motions regarding the request to rezone the 24. 191 -acre tract of property (Tract A) and the 6.68-acre tract of property (Tract B). (See applicant's appeal of Planning Commission decision.) The applicant intends to develop this property for a single family subdivision similar in density and character to the surrounding subdivisions. The applicant requests a rezoning of the subject property from R-A, Residential Agricultural, to RSF-4, Residential Single- family — 4 units per acre, to allow the development of a residential subdivision. DISCUSSION This item was heard at the regular Planning Commission on May 09, 2005. The Planning Commission voted 5-3-0 to forward this item to the City Council with a recommendation of approval, with Commissioners Ostner, Clark, and Allen voting no. The original rezoning request was for a rezoning from the property annexed (24. 191 acres, R-A) and that already in the city (6.68 acres, C- 1 ). Staff recommended denial of this request, finding that the C- 1 property was appropriate in this area and met the Future Land Use policy of the city. The Planning Commission separated the original request into two recommendations: ( 1 ) Approval of the RSF-4 for the northern 24. 191 acres; and City Council Ming of June 07, 2005 Agenda Item Number (2) Denial of rezoning the existing C- 1 to RSF-4. The applicant has subsequently appealed the vote to deny, which is also on this agenda. BUDGETIMPACT None. ORDINANCE NO.

The property is zoned R-A, Residential Agricultural and C- 1 , Neighborhood Commercial, and contains approximately 30.872 acres. The request is to rezone the subject property to RSF-4, Residential Single Family, 4 units per acre. Property Owner: FORREST & MODYNE LANE Planner: SUZANNE MORGAN RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends denial of the requested rezoning based on the findings herein.

It is located north of Huntsville Road (Hwy 16 East) and west of Deerfield Way Subdivision in southeast Fayetteville. The West Fork of the White River is the northern boundary of the subject property, and a tributary of this river traverses the property to the east. At this time, the property is currently used for pasture with one single family home located on the property. With approval of the proceeding ANX 05- 1451 , the northern 24. 191 acres will be zoned R-A, Residential Agricultural, and the 6.68 acres currently within the city is zoned C- 1 , Neighborhood Commercial. Proposal: The developer intends to develop this property for single family use at a maximum density of units per acre. The request is to rezone the property RSF-4, Residential Single-family, 4 units per acre. 1 K:Weporul20051PCReporul05-09-05WZN05-1452 (Lano.do 0 Recommendation: Staff recommends denial of the rezoning request to rezone the entire subject property RSF-4. The proposed zoning adjacent to Huntsville Road is not compatible with the General Plan 2020. The current C- 1 zoning allows for the development of neighborhood commercial to serve the current and future residents of this area. SURROUNDING LAND USE AND ZONING: Direction Land Use Zoning North West Fork of the White River; Planning Area pasture South Vacant/Pasture C-2, Thoroughfare Commercial East Residential Single Family RSF-4, Res. Single Family — 4 units/acre Vacant/Pasture Planning Area West One Single Family Home; pasture Planning Area INFRASTRUCTURE: Streets: Currently the site has access to East Huntsville Road. Road improvements per AHTD, City of Fayetteville, and dedication per the master street plan are required. Surrounding Master Street Plan Streets: South: Huntsville Rd (Principal Arterial) East: Malty Wagnon (Collector), Country Ridge and Deerfield Way (Local) Water: Public water is adjacent to the site. There is an 8" main along East Huntsville Road. Water service will need to be extended within the property at the time of development. Additional connections may be required to complete a looped system. Sewer: The site is near sanitary sewer mains. A short off-site sewer main extension may be required to serve this development. A capacity analysis of the sewer lines and/or lift stations downstream of the site shall be conducted prior to development. Fire: The subject property is located 4.3 miles from the Fire Station #5 . Normal driving time to the site is approximately 9 minutes, with an estimated response time of 9.5 minutes for 28 projected calls at full build out. This does not take into account the decreased response time for the future Fire Station at the Tyson complex on Huntsville Road. Police: It is the opinion of the Fayetteville Police Department that this rezoning will substantially alter the population density and will possibly create an undesirable increase on police services. This rezoning will increase our response time to calls for service because this property is on the very outer fringes of our current service K.tRepora000510C Repora105-09-05WN 05-1151 (Lane).doc 9 • area. The potential of creating 120 new homes will increase the traffic on an already congested arterial street, (Huntsville Road). LAND USE PLAN: The General Plan 2020 Future Land Use Plan designates this site as Residential and Neighborhood Commercial. FINDINGS OF THE STAFF 1 . A determination of the degree to which the proposed zoning is consistent with land use planning objectives, principles, and policies and with land use and zoning plans. Finding: The majority of property adjacent to the subject property is located within the Planning Area and consists of large tracts of land developed for single family and agricultural uses. Deerfield Place is the only property in the surrounding area which has been subdivided for single family use. This property is zoned RSF-4 and R-O and developed at approximately 3.13 units per acre. The subject property contains approximately 30.872 acres. The southern 6.68 acres adjacent to Huntsville Road has been zoned C-1, Neighborhood Commercial, for several years. In 2001 , the General Plan was updated to designate this area Neighborhood Commercial. This change reflected a previous land: use decision to allow development of commercial uses compatible with residential use. Future development of a majority of the subject property at 4 units per acre would be compatible with the development within the City. However, rezoning the southern 6.68 acres ' from C-1 to RSF-4 is not consistent with the General Plan, a policy adopted. five years ago, under which we currently operate. 2. A determination of whether the proposed zoning is justified and/or needed at the time the rezoning is proposed. Finding: The proposed rezoning of the southern 6.68 acres is not justified or needed at this time. The General Plan 2020 identifies Neighborhood Commercial Areas as: "commercial areas [which will] meet the shopping needs of adjacent residents" and areas to "provide commercial uses that are accessible for the convenience of individuals living in residential districts." The nearest community commercial area adjacent to this property is located at the intersection of Crossover Rd. and Huntsville Road. Retaining the current C- 1 zoning in this area will allow the development of commercial uses which will be compatible with and serve the existing residential developments. Should the annexation request for the 24. 191 acres north of the existing city limits be approved, the property is zoned R-A by default. The applicant is K.Weporu120051PC Reports105-09-05LUN 05-1452 (Lane).doc 0 0 requesting the consideration of rezoning this property to RSF-4 should the annexation request be approved. Staff finds that this zoning is compatible with the General Plan 2020 and surrounding developments within the City. 3 . A determination as to whether the proposed zoning would create or appreciably increase traffic danger and congestion. Finding: The additional density will create an increase in the amount of traffic currently utilizing Huntsville Road and intersecting streets. The West Fork of the White River to the north of this and surrounding properties may prevent a northern street connection. No north-south street connection is identified on the Master Street Plan between Mally Wagnon Road and Starr Drive, an unconstructed street. Staff recommends connectivity between future development of this property and surrounding properties to allow for many alternative routes of travel to Huntsville Road. 4. A determination as to whether the proposed zoning would alter the population density and thereby undesirably increase the load on public services including schools, water, and sewer facilities. Finding: The proposed zoning will increase population density from that zoning currently in place. The 24.191 acre tract under an R-A zoning designation would allow for a maximum 12 single family residential dwelling units. With t the proposed RSF-4 designation for the entire 30.872 acres, a maximum of . 123 single family dwelling units would be permitted. Increased load on public services were taken into consideration and recommendations from Engineering, Police Department, and Fire Department are included in this report. Police Comments: It is the opinion of the Fayetteville Police Department that this rezoning will substantially alter the population density and will possibly create an undesirable increase on police services. This rezoning will increase our response time to calls for service because this property is on the very outer fringes of our current service area. The potential of creating 120 new homes will increase the traffic on an already congested arterial street, (Huntsville Road). 5 . If there are reasons why the proposed zoning should not be approved in view of considerations under b ( 1 ) through (4) above, a determination as to whether the proposed zoning is justified and/or necessitated by peculiar circumstances such as: a. It would be impractical to use the land for any of the uses permitted under its existing zoning classifications; K.'IReporu11005PC Repons105-09-05WN 05-1452 (Lane).doc 0 0 b. There are extenuating circumstances which justify the rezoning even though there are reasons under b ( 1 ) through (4) above why the proposed zoning is not desirable.
