Pate, Director of Current Planning Date: August 18, 2006 Subject: Rezoning for Life Covenant Church (RZN 06-2181 ) RECOMMENDATION The Planning Commission recommended approval of the subject rezoning request from R-A to RSF-4 on approximately 1 .36 acres of property located at 1855 Porter Road, north of Sycamore Street. BACKGROUND The 1 .36 acres proposed for rezoning is part of a 5-acre tract owned by and developed for Life Covenant Church. The 1 .36 acres in question is undeveloped, adjacent to I-540 and north of Sycamore right-of-way. The owner desires to subdivide the 1 .36 acres for sale; however, the lot does not meet the bulk and area regulations of the R-A zoning district. Therefore, the applicant requests to rezone the property RSF-4 to proceed with the subdivision of property. The proposed RSF-4 zoning is consistent with the land use planning objectives and principles. The property is located within an area developed for a variety of residential uses from single family homes to apartment complexes zoned RSF-4, RT- 12, and RMF- 24. It is unlikely that this property will ever be used for agricultural purposes and the owner is unable to subdivide the property under the R-A regulations without a variance. A rezoning to RSF-4 allows development of the property and accomplishes the goal of infill those areas within close proximity to infrastructure and utilities. DISCUSSION This item was heard at the regular Planning Commission on August 14, 2006. The Planning Commission voted 9-0-0 to recommend approval of this rezoning request to the City Council.

The 1 .36 acres in question is undeveloped. It is adjacent to I- 540 and north of Sycamore right-of-way. Although this property does have frontage on public right- of-way to the south, the road is undeveloped. Proposal: The owner desires to subdivide the 1 .36 acres for sale; however, the lot does not meet the bulk and area regulations of the R-A zoning district. Therefore, the applicant requests to rezone the property RSF-4 to proceed with the subdivision of property. If ever the 1 .36 acres were subdivided or developed, adequate access shall be constructed to the property either from Sycamore Street or Porter Road through the church's property. UReports120061PC Reports108-14-061)?ZN 06-2181 (Life Covenant Church).doc , f Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the requested RSF-4 zoning district in this location, finding that it is compatible with the surrounding uses and necessary for the development of this property. SURROUNDING LAND USE AND ZONING: Direction Land Use Zoning North Life Covenant Church R-A, Residential Agricultural South Single-family residential RSF-4 & RT- 12 Two-family residential East Apartment Complex RMF-24 West I-540 & Vacant property I- 1 INFRASTRUCTURE: Streets: The site has access to Sycamore Street. Sycamore Street is an improved two-lane paved roadway at this property. Improvements that may be required shall be evaluated by staff as development occurs. Surrounding Master Street Plan Streets: South: Sycamore Street (Local) Water: Public water is adjacent to the site. There is a 6" waterline along Sycamore. Improvements to the water system may be required dependent upon the demand placed by the future development. Water service will need to be extended within the property at the time of development. Sewer: Sanitary sewer is available on the site. There is an 8" sewer main that runs through the site. Improvements to the sewer system may be required dependent upon the demand placed by the development. Sewer service will need to be extended to and within the property at the time of development. This property is within the Hamestring Creek Lift Station basin. Drainage: Standard improvements and requirements for drainage will be required for the development. Fire: The overall 4.97 acres are covered by Engine 7 located at 835 N Rupple Road. The property is 1 .9 miles from the station with an expected response time of 4 minutes. The Fire Department anticipates 5 (3 EMS — 2 Fire/Other) calls for service per year once the development is completed and maximum build-out has occurred. There are no recorded measured hydrant flows for this area. The service impact of this development will typically take eighteen months after the development is started, and the units begin to be occupied, to occur. There should be no adverse effects on our call volume or response time to this development. K:IReport512006TC Rcports108-14-06VZZN 06-2181 (Lfe Cownnnl Churdh).doc Y Police: It is the opinion of the Fayetteville Police Department that this rezoning will not substantially alter the population density nor will it create an appreciable increase in traffic danger and congestion in the area. LAND USE PLAN: The Interim City Plan 2025 map designates this site Residential, and on the Sector Map it is located on the edge of the Growth Infill area. 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: Staff finds that the proposed RSF-4 zoning is consistent with the land use planning objectives and principles. The property is located within an area developed for a variety of residential uses from single family homes to . apartment complexes. To increase the density from 0.5 units per acre to four units per acre on this property is appropriate and compatible. 2. A determination of whether'the proposed zoning is justified and/or needed at the time the rezoning is proposed. Finding: Although the overall property is developed for a place of worship, this 1.36 acres is vacant: It is unlikely that this property will ever be used for agricultural purposes and the owner is unable to subdivide the property under the R-A regulations without a variance or rezoning the property. The applicant has decided to proceed with the latter option. A rezoning to RSF-4 allows development of the property and accomplishes the goal of infill those areas within close proximity to infrastructure and utilities. 3. A determination as to whether the proposed zoning would create or appreciably increase traffic danger and congestion. Finding: The zoning of this property to RSF-4 and subsequent development may result in the increase of traffic to the property. Sycamore Street and Saddlehorn Avenue are stubbed out to the property and can be the means of access to any development. The Police Department has reviewed this request and finds that it will not appreciably increase traffic congestion or danger in this area. 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. K.1Reports120061PC Reports108-14-061RU06-2181 (Lfe Cownanl Church).doc ii Finding: The proposed zoning would not substantially alter the population density in the area. A 1.36 acre parcel within the R-A zoning district could not be developed for residential use without a variance (I unit per 2 acres). Five single family residential units would be permitted under the RSF-4 zoning district. Increased load on public services were taken into consideration and recommendations from Engineering, Fire, and Police Departments are included in this report. 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; 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.
