Background:
Applicant: April Barker
Owner: April Barker
Developer: N/A
Engineer: N/A
Location: One-half mile north of New Orleans Street (101st Street), one-third mile west of 23rd Street (193rd E. Avenue/County Line Road)
Size of Tract 2.62 acres
Number of Lots: 1
Present Zoning: A-RE (Annexed Residential Estate)
Proposed Zoning: RE (Residential Estate)
Comp Plan: Level 1 (Rural Residential)
The applicant is proposing to rezone this property from A-RE to RE (via BAZ-001900-2024). The property is one-half mile north of New Orleans Street (101st Street), one-third mile west of 23rd Street (193rd E. Avenue/County Line Road), and is currently unplatted.
The property owner has applied for a lot split (LOT-001811-2024), and intends to build a second single family detached house. The area that this property is located in is semi-rural and no sidewalks exist in the area. Since 2017, four rezoning and four lot splits have been completed in the immediate vicinity resulting in three new homes being constructed. No sidewalks were installed for any of these homes.
Upon building permits being issued for any new structure, sidewalks will be required along the 96th street frontage. The applicant requests a modification to Section 4.1(n) of the Land Subdivision Code and waive the sidewalk requirement along the 96th street frontages.
