• City Council Staff Report Comprehensive Plan Amendment and rezone of Single Family housing east of Silver Lake, on 23rd Drive SE A. Introduction: After the proposed changes are made,the proposed action will make zoning on the 7 involved single family properties consistent with the underlying Comprehensive Plan map designation. This is a two part proposal: a. For the five properties south of 23rd,amend the Comprehensive Plan map designation from 2.1 (Schools/Churches)to 1.2(Single Family)and change the zone from R-3 (Multiple Family)to R-1 (Single Family. b. For the two properties at the west end of 23r ,north side,amend the Comprehensive Plan map designation from 4.4(Mixed Use Commercial /Multiple Family)to 1.2 (Single Family) and change the zone from R-3 (Multiple Family)to R-1 (Single Family). B. Background: _ 1. This seven lot plat and road were built after the church to the north, and the commercial area to the west were built. The underlying 2.1 (Schools and Churches), and 4.4 (Mixed Use Commercial), and the R-3 and B-1 zoning that existed at the time, did not preclude this residential development, so no change in the designation or zone was undertaken at that time. When the Commercial area to the west was recently rezoned,the underlying designation and zone on this area was noted, and staff was asked to take action during the current docket cycle to match the designation and zone to the current and expected long-term use,which is single family residential. 2. The subject area is in the Silver Lake neighborhood. Staff met with the Neighborhood on this action on February 2nd of this year. 3. See attached correspondence from a property owner in the 4.4 (Mixed Use Commercial area). 1 114
