ITEM SUMMARY: The applicant is proposing a potential layout for Parcel 1502 as required under “PD” - Planned Development District Ordinance No. 2001-02-024. According to the approved zoning and masterplan, Parcel 1502 includes non-residential uses, and the applicant is proposing a retail development that includes daycare, fueling station, office, retail and restaurant uses.
PLATTING STATUS: The subject property is currently conveyance platted as Lot 1, Block A, of Parcel 1502 Addition.
CONCEPT PLAN: Under the governing base planned development ordinance, a concept plan is required if the development of the entire zoning area is not shown on a single site plan. A zoning area, as defined by the governing zoning, is a tract of land or contiguous tracts of land under the same zoning district. The subject property is currently zoned “R-1” - Retail District. Concept plans are submitted for review by the Planning and Zoning Commission, which are then forwarded on to the City Council for consideration of approval.
The purpose of a concept plan is to set forth the development objectives allowed under zoning criteria in a graphic or specific written manner. The proposed concept plan shows the subject property can be effectively developed as 6 lots, as long as basic access and circulation needs are planned for the overall parcel as a whole. The attached concept plan displays the proposed lot layout for the development and indicates the lots will be developed as a daycare, fueling station, office, retail and restaurant uses. As each lot on the plan is developed, a site plan is required.
While the proposed concept plan lays out the non-residential uses of Parcel 1502, any future development of the subject property will be subject to all applicable City Ordinances, including but not limited to the Zoning Ordinance (i.e. land use and development regulations) and the Subdivision Ordinance (i.e. platting). Proposed concept plans as approved shall not allow for deviations to applicable City Ordinances.
