STRATEGIC OUTCOME:

This subdivision furthers the City Council’s strategic outcome of Safe and Prosperous, as the approval of the final plat will facilitate an increase in new commercial development opportunities.

 

REPORT:

The proposed subdivision within the General Commercial/Aesthetic Overlay (B-2/AO) District will reconfigure two existing parcels into ten lots ranging in size from 40,740 square feet to 102,146 square feet, intended for commercial development. In its entirety, the subject area is approximately 12.48 acres in size.

 

The principal purpose of the General Commercial (B-2) District is to provide for a wide range of business commercial activities, including retail sales, tourist and highway-oriented facilities, service businesses, entertainment and commercial recreation uses which serve the entire urbanized area. It is also intended that such business activities be protected from incompatible uses by restricting activities and prohibiting new industrial activities as principal uses within the district.

 

In addition, the Aesthetic Overlay (AO) District enhances the community’s image and attractiveness through creation of visually pleasing and inviting entryways of the City as well as providing community focal points or areas where the design of the physical improvements and landscape enhances the community’s appearance.

 

Following the subdividing of the properties, all resulting parcels will be required to meet all development standards as specified in the City of Yuma’s Zoning Code. These development requirements include paved parking, access, setbacks, landscaping, and lighting.

 

 

 

 

Approval of the final plat for the Plaza Del Este Unit No. 3 Subdivision, shall be subject to the following conditions:

 

1.                     The conditions are in addition to City codes, rules, fees and regulations that are appliable to this action.

 

2.                     The Owner’s signature on the application for this land use action shall constitute a waiver of any claims for diminution in value pursuant to A.R.S. § 12-1134.

 

3.                     The Owner’s signature on the application of this land use action shall serve as an acknowledgement regarding potential noise and overflight of aircraft from both daily and special operations of the Marine Corps Air Station and the Yuma International Airport.

 

4.                     The rights-of-way must be dedicated free and clear to the City, and all easements in the right-of-way must be vacated unless the easement is specifically presented to the City, and the City specifically approves its acceptance. Approval of the plat is not approval of an easement in the right-of-way.

 

5.                     Any easements of other property in the subdivision must be vacated to the extent that they would require a utility, licensed cable operator, or other licensed or franchised communications system (collectively, the “utilities”) to:

 

a.                     pay to cross the easement to reach any structure on the lot;

b.                     prevent the utilities from providing service to any structure on a lot; or

c.                     effectively prevent any entity authorized to place facilities in a utility easement from using the easements or accessing potential customers crossing the easement.

 

6.                     Approval of the plat does not authorize the maintenance or installation of any facility in the rights of way, whether or not contemplated by the plat, without a license, franchise, or similar authorization issued by the City.

 

7.                     After the final plat has been approved by City Council, the applicant/developer shall have two years to record the approved plat, or the final plat approval shall be null and void.

 

The City Council’s approval of this motion accepts the final plat of the Plaza Del Este Unit No. 3 Subdivision as submitted, including conditions of approval set forth above.
