Case #4: Request to Rezone Property from R-IR Single Family Rural to R-1U Single Family Urban Residential; Case of Oakwood Land Development Community Development Director Frolik stated that Oakwood Land Development has submitted an application to rezone Lot 1 and 2, Block 1, of Wildlife Sanctuary Addition from R-IR Single Family Rural to R-l U Single Family Urban Residential. The rezoning would allow the applicant to redevelop the property into single-family urban lots. Oakwood Land Development is requesting that the City rezone approximately 31.66 acres from RI-R Single Family Rural to R- 1 U Single Family Urban. The rezoning would allow the property to be redeveloped into single- family lots that will be serviced by municipal sewer and water services. The 2001 Comprehensive Plan identifies this area for low-density residential development and low-density development has been established at three units per acre. The applicant has submitted a preliminary plat proposing to subdivide the subject property into 42 single-family lots. The net density for the project area is 2.01 units per acre. The Planning Commission reviewed the rezoning request and held a public hearing on May 2, 2002. Gene Gile, residing at 15710 St. Francis Blvd., stated his understanding was that when Wildlife Sanctuary Addition was originally platted in 1996, resubdivision restrictions were placed on the subject property. Staff researched the issue and found that there was not any restrictions placed on the ability to further subdivide the subject property. The Planning Commission recommended the City Council approve the rezoning request. Councilmember Hendriksen inquired if the road stubbed to the north was going to be a potential through street. Community Development Director Frolik replied yes. Principal Engineer Olson explained that the stubbed street would connect to the road stubbed [rom the Apple Ridge development.
