CC Regular Session Meeting Date: 10/10/2017 Submitted For: Alec Henderson, Community Development By: Alec Henderson, Community Development Information 7. 1. Title: Consider Adopting Zoning Amendment Related to a Subdivision known as Lavern Estates (Project No. 17-137); Case of Joshua Peterson Purpose/Background: This purpose of this case is to review the Zoning Ordinance for Lavern Estates, a Minor Plat. The Plat proposes to subdivide one 36.17 acre lot into two (2) buildable lots; Lot 1 is 31.49 Acres and Lot 2 is 4.05 Acres. The submittal consisted of one (1) sheet, prepared by Carlson McCain and dated October 3, 2016. The submittal also includes a request for a Zoning Amendment and Comprehensive Plan Amendment to rezone the property from R-1 Residential (MUSA) to R-1 Residential (Rural Developing) and to re -guide the land from Low Density Residential to Rural Developing (Received July 6, 2017). Note: The Resolution for Final Plat and Development agreement was approved on September 12, 2017. The Zoning Ordinance was Introduced on September 12, 2017 and is now eligible for adoption.

The intent of the LDR land use designation is to allow for the construction of single-family dwellings with access to municipal sewer and water. The two (2) lot Sketch Plan proposes to use well and septic. This will require a Comprehensive Plan Amendment to re -guide the Subject Property as Rural Developing to allow for well and septic. Zoning: The Subject Property is currently zoned as R-1 Residential (MUSA), which would allow a net density of up to three (3) units per acre and a minimum lot size of 10,800 square feet. The proposed zoning for the Final Plat is R-1 Residential (Rural Developing). This allows for the development of single family, detached dwellings with a density of one (1) unit per 2.5 acres. As proposed the project would require a Zoning Amendment to rezone the
