APPROVED BY CITY ADMINISTRATOR: Michael Guttman SIGNATURE
ITEM SUMMARY:
Habitat for Humanity is proposing to develop the Woodland Ridge subdivision with four townhome
buildings, which are considered multiple-family dwelling structures and are not permitted in the current
zoning district of R-3 Single-Family Residential. The property is identified as Multi-Family Residential
within the City’s Comprehensive Plan, which is consistent with the zoning designation of R-6 Multiple-
Family. The R-6 district permits multi-family dwellings, such as townhomes, by right. The petitioner is
therefore seeking a Zoning Map Amendment to place the property in the R-6 District. The subject
property is roughly 1.75 acres and was previously platted as Woodland Ridge subdivision with seven
lots for single-family homes and a public right-of-way for a cul-de-sac known as Woodland Court. The
lots were never developed and remain vacant and Woodland Court remains unimproved.
At their November 6" meeting, members of the Plan Commission voted unanimously (4-0, with three
absent) in support of the proposed Zoning Map Amendment Special Use Permit.
ACTION PROPOSED:
Discuss and recommend approval of the proposed Zoning Map Amendment.
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:
Development Committee members voted 5-0, plus one abstention, in support of the Zoning Map
Amendment.
Attachments: Draft Ordinance
