CONNIE DUNN LAND USE PROPOSALS AT 400 WEST PORTER
LANE
Paul Allred, Community Development Director,
explained that Connie Dunn has returned to the Planning Commission with a land
use proposal for her property located at 400 West Porter Lane. The proposed
plan shows four condominium units on about a half-acre bordering the DeVore
property to the north. The existing historic home would be sold as a residence
and the small home will be made into a small commercial office building on the
corner. The barn and garage would be demolished. The existing historic rock
out building would be retained.
Mrs. Dunn said she has the support of the DeVore’s
and other nearby neighbors for the condo project. She said the condo’s are three
bedroom units that would sell for around $150,000 and be FHA approved. Brian
Hulse stated that Mrs. Dunn should have an attorney research the FHA guidelines
for her property. He said the FHA will not allow shared mixed-use in a common
area because if the FHA should have to foreclose one of the units, they do not
want to have to deal with a commercial user who is not paying their fees.
There were members of the Planning Commission
that stated they are generally in favor of the proposed plans for the Dunn property
and they suggested that perhaps an appropriate path for possible approval of
this mixed use project would be for Mrs. Dunn to file for two conditional use
permits and a lot split petition for an R-2 Zone. Two development proposals
were shown. Of the two, the Planning Commission preferred the plan with four
condos instead of six.
OVERVIEW OF PROPOSED CHANGES TO ZONING MAP
Kem Weaver displayed a transparency of the City’s
zoning map of the southwest quadrant of Centerville. There are several properties
that are zoned A-1 that should be zoned R-1-85.
After discussion, the Planning Commission agreed
the zoning should be researched and corrected as necessary. A public notice
will be given on any zoning changes as required by law.
Paul Allred stated there will be an open house
in February that will allow the citizens who are affected by the zoning changes
to view a zoning map and answer any questions the citizens may have.
After the open house, it is proposed the Planning
Commission will formally act on specific changes to the map and forward a recommendation
to the City Council.
CHANGES TO LANDSCAPE ORDINANCE
The Planning Commission reviewed the draft of
the proposed Landscape Ordinance and suggested changes. The Planning Commission
directed staff to bring the final version of the ordinance to the Planning Commission
meeting on February 13, 2002 to be acted upon, and then it will be forwarded
to the City Council for consideration.
The meeting was adjourned at 7:03 p.m.
