II. REZONING ANALYSIS: THE FOLLOWING SUMMARIZES THE DATA AND ISSUES WHICH STAFF ANALYZED IN REVIEWING THIS APPLICATION. A. JUSTIFICATION FOR REZONING REQUEST: 1. Applicant states "To bring the property into the City for water and sewer and to develop a single family residential subdivision of R-lA lots." 2. With the provision of City water and sewer service to applicant's proposed residential development on the subject property, a case is made for higher density development than under county Future Land Use Map and Zoning designations. The subject property is not within the county service area for.extension of water and sewer service, but is within the City'S sewer and water service a-rea . 3 . The land adjacent to the applicant's property north of Orange Ave. in the remainder of the county enclave is county zoned R-l "Single Family Dwelling District" (8,400 sq. ft. minimum lot size), with the following setbacks: front yard 25 feet; side yard 10 feet inside, 25 feet street side; rear yard 30 feet. ';,'; 4. The City's zoning designation of R-lA requires a minimum lot size of 8,000 square feet, with the following setbacks: front yard 25 feet; side yard 7.5 feet, 15 feet street side provided the corner lot faces the same way as all other lots in the block. (If the building faces the long dimension of the lot, or where corner lots face a different thoroughfare than other lots in he block, the 25 foot or greater setback must be maintained from both thoroughfares.); rear yard 25 feet. 5. The new st. Johns Landing single family residential Subdivision to the northeast (inside the City) is at the same density range as the applicant's request of "Lower Density Residential" (1.1 to 3.5 DU/acre) on the City's Future Land Use Map. The zoning is POD with the setbacks set at: front yard 25 feet; side yard 10 feet inside, and 15 feet for side yards adjacent to streets; rear yard 25 feet. 6. There is the similarity of zoning in the county enclave with the applicant's requested City zoning designation of R-~. The setbacks in the county R-1 zoning district, the City R-~ zoning district, and the setbacks as set in the st. Johns Landing POD are almost the same. B. NUISANCE POTENTIAL OF PROPOSED ZONING DISTRICT TO SURROUNDING LAND USES: The applicant's proposed zoning change from county zoning designation of A-1 "Agriculture District" to the City's z,oning designation of R-lA "One Family Dwelling District" ~s in conformance with the county R-1 zoning district and the St. John Landing POD for setbacks. Hence, from the viewpoint of appearance for location of structures from the edge of the right-of-way, side and rear property lines, there will be a compatibility and therefore no nuisa~ce in this regard. It may be noted that the applicant has applied to the City for a small scale comprehensive plan amendment requesting a City Future Land Use Map designation of "Lower Density Residential" (1.1 to 3.5 DU/acre). This requested designation is compatible with the county's Future Land Use Map designation of "Low Density Residential" (maximum 4 DU/acre). The parcels designated county "Low Density Residential" are located immediately north of the subject property on the north side of Orange Ave. :/ In the development of this property, the Site Plan Review Board, as indicted in Sec. 9-347 City Code, will review for "compliance with all city ordinances, for conformity with the City'S Comprehensive Plan, for compatibility with locally recognized values of community appearance and design, for conformity with the guidelines on vehicular traffic access, ingress, egress, internal circulation, parking; concerning emergency vehicle access and concerning pedestrian movement; for assurances of satisfactory utility service for the health and welfare of the community; to assure compatibility with other improvements and the need for adequate light, air, access and privacy; to assure that the natural qualities and characteristics of the land will be preserved and that the project site will be appropriately landscaped and provisions established for the maintenance of same; to assure that adequate setbacks will be provided within the planned project and that provisions are made for the supervision and maintenance thereof; and to assure that the aesthetic and architectural details of the planned project are compatible with the surrounding area and serve to enhance the character of that area. The site plan shall be reviewed by the board and approved, disapproved or properly referred by such board in accordance with the results of its review." C. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT: Development of a single-family residential subdivision on the parcel will add to the City's tax base, over that of existing vacant land. D. COMPATIBILITY WITH CITY'S COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The proposed rezoning would not be compatible with the Future Land Use Map designation of "Lower Density Residential" that has been requested by the applicant. III. FINDINGS: A. ZONING COMPATIBILITY: The applicant's request for the City's R-LA zoning designation on the subject property would be compatible: a. with the existing zoning of the area to the north which is county designation R-1 "Single Family Dwelling District" and to the east which is City designation of "PUD". b. with the City's Future Land Use Map designation of "Lower Density Residential (1.1 to 3.5 DU/acre). B. NUISANCE POTENTIAL: .'" No significant nuisance should ~esult from designating the subject property a City single family residentially zoned district, specifically R-LA. The existing land use in the surrounding area is residential and vacant land to the north and east. To the south is the high school property with a dry retention basin immediately to the south of the subj ect property. C. PUBLIC FACILITIES: 1. The subj ect property is not within the county service area for extension of sewer and water service. 2. The subject property is within the City's service area for extension of sewer and water service. 3. The City is able to ,extend ~o the subject property the urban services ~t prov~des to the other areas of the City. IV, STAFF RECONllv1ENDATION: staff recommends that the Local Planning Agency recommend approval to the City Commission the request by Doug Maise of Sanlando Land, Inc. for a City zoning designation of R-lA on the 9.9 acre parcel (Parcel # 26-20-30-SAR-OBOO-0180) based on the findings indicated in III above.
