Consideration, discussion, and possible action regarding BAZ-001900-2024 (Rezoning), April Barker, 2.62 acres, A-RE (Annexed Residential Estate), located one-half mile north of New Orleans Street (101st Street), one-third mile west of 23rd Street (193rd E. Avenue/County Line Road)

Background:
BAZ-001900-2024 is a request to change the zoning designation on 2.62 acres from A-RE (Annexed Residential Estate) to RE (Residential Estate). 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. A variance to the subdivision regulations for a sidewalk waiver for this proposed construction has been submitted with this rezoning.
This property is in a neighborhood of houses that were annexed in as A-RE (Annexed Residential Estate), and since this annexation 4 of the lots have been rezoned to Residential Estate (RE) and one of the lots to Single Family Residential (RS-1). All of these lots have been rezoned at the time of redevelopment, primarily because of lot splits similar to the one being proposed.
The subject property is Comprehensive Plan Level 1, which supports rezoning to RE. A-RE is a transitional zoning district, which is required to be rezoned to the appropriate zoning district before any development can be done. When LOT-001811-2024 was submitted, this triggered the requirement for the property to be rezoned to the permanent zoning district.
Planning Commission recommended approval, per staff recommendation, of BAZ-001900-2024 on January 16, 2025, per staff recommendation with a 5-0 vote. During the January 16th planning commission meeting two community members spoke in opposition to the rezoning.
