end
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION:
Summary Recommendation
Rezone approximately 14,000 square feet of land from the Light Industrial/Infill Overlay (L-I/IO) District to the Medium Density Residential/Infill Overlay (R-2/IO) District for property located at 1010 and 1012 S. 2nd Avenue, Yuma, AZ. (Planning and Neighborhood Services/Community Planning) (Alyssa Linville)
end
STRATEGIC OUTCOME:
Consistent with the City Council’s strategic outcome of Respected and Responsible, the proposed rezoning is compatible with the surrounding area and further supports residential development within the City of Yuma.
REPORT:
The subject property is located at 1010 and 1012 S. 2nd Avenue, one parcel with two assigned addresses, in the Speese Addition Subdivision, which was originally recorded on April 18, 1901. The property is approximately 14,000 square feet in size and currently undeveloped. The property was historically developed with a neighborhood market, which was demolished in 2016. Since demolition, the property has remained vacant.
The applicant is requesting to rezone the property from Light Industrial/Infill Overlay (L-I/IO) to the Medium Density Residential/Infill Overlay (R-2/IO) District, with the intent to split the property into two lots and build a duplex on each lot. To develop residential structures on the property, a rezone is required.
Several properties in the area are developed with single-family homes and duplexes. The rezone of this property will complement the character of the surrounding area, while increasing access to housing. This request is in conformance with the Land Use Element of the General Plan.
On December 11, 2023, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted to recommend APPROVAL (4-0, with Freeman, Scott, and Pendleton absent) of the request to rezone the 14,000 square foot property from the Light Industrial (L-I) District to the Medium Density Residential (R-2) District, while maintaining the existing Infill Overlay (IO) District.
