STRATEGIC OUTCOME:

REPORT:

Planning and Zoning Commission’s Recommendation:

This is a Minor General Plan Amendment request by Dahl, Robins & Associates, LLC, on behalf of Yuma Development One, LLC, to change the land use designation of approximately 11.78 acres located at the northwest corner of 34th Street and DeVane Drive from Commercial to Medium Density Residential.

The existing Commercial land use designation supports the following types of zoning: Transitional (TR), Planned Shopping Center (PSC), Limited Commercial (B-1), General Commercial (B-2), and Business Park (BP) districts.

The proposed Medium Density Residential land use designation supports the following types of zoning: Medium Density Residential (R-2), Medium Density Single-Family Residential (R-2-5), Recreation Vehicle Subdivision (RVS), Manufactured Housing Subdivision (MHS), and Manufactured Housing Park (MHP) districts.

The applicant’s intent in changing the land use designation is to pursue a rezoning of the site to Medium Density Residential (R-2) for the development of townhomes.

On June 10, 2024, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted to recommend APPROVAL (4-0, with three Commissioners absent) of the General Plan amendment request to change the land use designation to Medium Density Residential.
