PUD-002281-2025 (Planned Unit Development) and BAZ-002280-2025 (Rezoning), are a request to change the zoning designation from A-1 (Agricultural) to CH (Commercial Heavy), (IL) Industrial Light, and RM (Residential Multi-Family on approximately 11.72 acres which is currently unplatted. The property is located approximately one-eighth mile south of Tucson Street (121st Street) and one-half mile west of Elm Place (161st East Avenue).
COMP-002093-2025, a request to change the Comprehensive Plan designation from Levels 2 (Urban Residential) & 3 (Transition Area) to Levels 3 (Transition Area), 6 (Regional Employment/Commercial), & Greenway/Floodplain was approved by the City Council on June 2, 2025, subject to the approval of a PUD similar in context being approved on the property and the property being platted.
The eastern portion of this property was approved by the City Council on July 19, 2022 for RM zoning with PUD-340. PUD-340 and BAZ-2113 were approved subject to the property being platted. At this time there were no plats filed on the property. If this rezoning and PUD request is approved, the previous zoning case and PUD will be abrogated.
The applicant is requesting this rezoning and PUD for the purpose of developing the property for three separate uses, divided by an area of floodplain. The applicant has submitted a rezoning request to change the zoning to RM (Residential Multi-Family) on the west, IL (Industrial Light) towards the center of the property and CH (Commercial Heavy) on the east, along with a PUD.
