For a summary of the basis of Staff’s recommendation, see case manager comments on page 2. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: June 1, 2021: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: To be scheduled for July 29, 2021: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: None at this time. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject rezoning area consists of an unplatted tract (7401 Albert Road) and a platted lot (7407 Albert Road), is located approximately mid-block and zoned development reserve (DR) district. There is one single family residence located at each address. Albert Road contains single family residences and accessory residences on large lots and tracts zoned DR upon annexation in the mid-1980s. There are similar sized large tracts to the north (DR; SF- 1), south and west (DR), and the Elmwood Estates single family residential subdivision is to the east (SF-2). Please refer to Exhibits A (Zoning Map), A-1 (Aerial Exhibit) and B (Subdivision Plat). The Applicant has requested family residence (SF-3) district zoning in order to build two accessory dwelling units on the property, one at each address. 1 of 12B-3 C14-2021-0060 Page 2 BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1.
