COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PETITION REPORT Petition ZC 15-07 – Zone Change from SF-7 to SF-MH Planning & Zoning Commission Discussion of Petition ZC 15-07 on July 16, 2015 Senior Planner Cindy Lopez presented the staff report for ZC 15-07, a request from Almie Lambson, represented by Sakura Engineering & Surveying, for a zone change from SF-7 Single- family Residential to SF-MH Single-family Mobile Home for 0.29 acres of vacant land located at 5420 Hubbard Road. The petitioner is requesting a zone change from SF-7 Single-family Residential to SF-MH Single-family Mobile Home. They would like to place a mobile home on the property. Ms. Lopez said the property is north of Hubbard Road across from where Gold Avenue dead ends into Hubbard. A manufactured home was on the site at one time. The home site had to be elevated because of floodplain issues. Any new construction on the site will need to meet floodplain construction requirements. There is a well-site on the property to the west. Any new construction will need to be 100 feet away from production equipment of the well-site. Ms. Lopez explained the zoning on the north, east and west is SF-7 Single-family Residential. The zoning to the south is SF-7 SMHAO Single-family Residential with a Special Mobile Home Area Overlay. On the south there are many single-section mobile homes. The residential properties to the east are 132 feet away and 415 feet away on the west side. The Community Development Department recommends approval of Petition ZC 15-07. Sherry Blackmon of Sakura Engineering & Surveying, 125 W. Main, had nothing additional to add. Rose Goodman and Allen Brown were sworn in by Ms. Walker. 10 Rose Goodman of 4501 Rowe Avenue said she wanted the deer habitat surrounding the lot preserved and did not want to see a single-wide mobile home moved onto the property. Allen Brown of 4001 Gold said he owns three properties across from the proposed zone change property. He was not against the zone change if it was a single family that moved to the property.
