end
STRATEGIC OUTCOME:
This General plan amendment furthers the City Council’s strategic outcome of Safe and Prosperous by providing an adequate mixture and balance of land uses.
REPORT:
This is a General Plan Amendment request by Dahl, Robins & Associates, Inc., on behalf of Yuma Investments Partners, LLC, to change the land use designation from Medium Density Residential to High Density Residential for approximately 1.84 acres located at 594 S. May Avenue. A map is attached to the proposed resolution.
The existing 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), Recreational Vehicle Subdivision (RVS), Manufactured Housing Subdivision (MHS), and Manufactured Housing Park (MHP) districts.
The proposed High Density Residential land use designation supports the following types of zoning: High Density Residential (R-3), Residence-Manufactured Housing (R-MH), Recreational Vehicle Subdivision (RVS), and Manufactured Housing Park (MHP) districts.
The applicant’s intent in changing the land use designation is to develop a multi-family residential development under the High Density Residential (R-3) zoning district through Yuma County. If successful with the General Plan amendment the applicant will request a Pre-annexation agreement with the City of Yuma in order to connect to additional utility services to support the proposed multi-family development. Annexation of the property is not possible at this time.
On February 10, 2025, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted to recommend APPROVAL (5-0) of the General Plan amendment request to change the land use designation to High Density Residential.
