Respectfully Submitted: Bart Peddicord, Chairman Kirsten Fresh, Secretary Summary Consider a request submitted by Dan Scarborough of Shepard Place Homes for a Replat of two (2) lots located at the intersection of W. Brown and Winding Oaks into ten(10) lots. Background This is a replat of Lot 7, Block "K" into four(4) lots and Lot 58, Block "E" into six (6) lots. Lot 7 contains 2.180 acres (94,943 sq. ft.) and Lot 58 contains 3.456 acres (150,561 sq. ft.). This area is considered as part of the Point North Subdivision, but is presently Zoned "B-2" (Business). Mr. Scarborough will be requesting a "Zone" change at the upcoming (Dec. 5 th.) meeting, Financial Considerations Commercial uses would provide a higher tax base, but any development would be an improvement. Legal Considerations There has been some concern expressed that residential is not the best "Use" for this land, but if the developer is meeting all of our subdivision requirements there is no legal basis for denial of this plat. However, this project if unfavorable to the P&Z could be stopped by denying the "Zone" change. Board/Commission Recommendations Pending. Staff Recommendations Staff recommends approval.
