The Sketch Plan proposes to subdivide one 36.17 Acre Lot into two <br />(2) buildable lots; Lot 1 is 35.49 Acres and Lot 2 is 4.05 Acres. The submittal consisted of one (1) <br />sheet, prepared by Developer John Peterson (You Wish You Had This Land, L.L.C.) and Carlson <br />McCain dated October 3, 2016. The submittal also includes a request for a Zoning Amendment <br />and Comprehensive Plan Amendment to rezone the property from R-1 Residential (MUSA) to R- <br />1 Residential (Rural Developing) and to re -guide the land from Low Density Residential to Rural <br />Developing (Received July 6, 2017). The land use and zoning amendments will officially occur <br />during Preliminary Plat approvals. Staff recommends that the Developer proceed with preparation <br />of the Preliminary Plat, contingent upon the directives of the Staff Review Letter, including the <br />necessary Comprehensive Plan Amendment. <br />Community Development Director Gladhill reported staff was not completely supportive of the <br />proposed Sketch Plan as it was creating a number of flag lots. He believed another local road <br />should be considered to serve these homes. <br />Citizen Input <br />Vice Chair Van Scoy asked if the surrounding property owners were aware of the proposed zoning <br />change. <br />Community Development Director Gladhill explained all of the adjacent landowners were aware <br />of the applicant's intent, but noted their approval was not required. <br />Vice Chair Van Scoy questioned how long it would take City water and sewer to get to this area. <br />Community Development Director Gladhill estimated this would take 10 to 15 years, if ever. <br />Planning Commission / August 3, 2017 <br />Page 7 of 15 <br />
