Consideration, discussion, and possible approval of BAZ-2074 (Rezoning), TU Property, 81.17 acres, A-1 (Agricultural) to RS-4 (Single-Family Residential), west of the northwest corner of Washington Street (91st Street) and 23rd Street (193rd East Avenue/County Line Road)

Background:
BAZ-2074 is a request to change the zoning designation on 81.17 acres from A-1 (Agricultural) to RS-4 (Single-Family Residential). The unplatted is located west of the northwest corner of Washington Street (91st Street) and 23rd Street (193rd East Avenue/County Line Road).
