He explained this was an action item in the 2040 Comprehensive Plan, which called for developing a GIS map identifying wildland and urban interface areas within the city boundaries as well as looking at potential growth areas around Farmington. This map was developed using aerial surveying, fieldwork and collaborating with the City of Farmington Fire Department, San Juan County Office of Emergency Management, and the Bureau of Land Management. The Commission had some questions and feedback on changes they would like to see made to the map. Their direction was to bring the changes/corrections back to the September 29, 2022 P&Z Meeting to get final approval before the Commission recommends it to proceed to the City Council. Discussion Item – Housing Snapshot Plan Draft Associate Planner Colby Gibson presented the following: 2 3 4 Associate Planner Gibson went through the Housing Snapshot Plan draft. He explained it is an informational snapshot for the public, not an action plan. He did explain it is still in draft format and he is actively working on getting more information. The Commission had some questions and feedback on changes they would like to see made to the snapshot. Their direction was for Mr. Gibson to bring the snapshot back to the Commission after additional information has been added for final approval before it is brought forward to the City Council.

STAFF REPORT, September 15, 2022 PROJECT INFORMATION Applicant Michael Smith Representative Same Date of Application July 25, 2022 Requested Action Zone Change request from SF:7 – Single family residential to MF- M: Multifamily Medium Density/SMHA Location 1116 Smith Lane/R0027655 Existing Land Use Multifamily Residential/Legal, non-conforming Existing Zoning SF:7, Single family residential Surrounding Zoning & North: MF-M, multifamily development Land Use South: GC: General Commercial – strip mall East: SF:7: Industrial Subdivision West: SF:7 Manufactured Home Park Notice Requirements Publication of Notice: September 4, 2022, Farmington Daily Times Property owners letter: August 4, 2022 Sign posted: September 2, 2022 Staff Planner Beth Escobar, Planning Manager STAFF ANALYSIS Background The petitioner is requesting a Zone Change from SF:7, single-family residential to MF:M medium family residential to allow for combination with the property to the north at 1116 ½ Smith. 1116 ½ Smith is zoned MF-M. The petitioner plans to remove the existing mobile home at 1116 ½ Smith and place a new manufactured home on the property at 1116 Smith. In addition to the mobile unit at 1116 ½ Smith, there is a two bedroom apartment in the back and a carport. There is a single family residence and a carport on 1116 Smith Lane. 6 Zoning 7 Street View 8 Aerial View 9 Farmington Comprehensive Plan The Comprehensive Plan’s 2040 Future Land Use Map designation is Medium Density Residential. Medium-density residential is identified as 4 to 20 dwelling units per acre. After combination with the parcel to the north, total lot size would be .5 acres with four dwelling units, which translates to 8 dwelling units per acre which is within the recommended density. STAFF ANALYSIS The Unified Development Code states that the City shall consider whether the proposed zoning and land use are compatible with the conforming zoning and land use of nearby properties and with the character of the neighborhood. Section 8.7.4 of the Unified Development Code (UDC) outlines issues for consideration in determining a proposed zone change as follows: A. Is the proposed zoning consistent with the Farmington Comprehensive Plan? Yes, the proposed zoning conforms to the ‘medium density’ designation of the 2040 Comprehensive Plan. B. Is the proposed zoning and land use(s) compatible with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby property and the character of the neighborhood? Yes, the property is adjacent to high to medium density residential on the west, north and east and commercial to the south. The density proposed is compatible with the neighborhood. 10 C. Will there be adverse impacts; and/or can any adverse impacts be adequately mitigated? None identified. The upgrade of the manufactured home unit is an improvement to the property. The Fire Department and Building Division have completed a site visit and did not identify any issues with the project. D. Is the proposed density and intensity of use permitted in the proposed zoning district? Yes, the proposed density conforms to the MF-M density. PUBLIC COMMENTS This petition has been properly noticed. Letters were sent to eight surrounding property owners. At the time of this report no comments have been submitted. STAFF CONCLUSION In staff’s opinion, the zone change request is in line with the rest of the neighborhood and should not have an adverse impact. The upgrade of the manufactured home unit is an improvement to the property and the neighborhood. STAFF RECOMMENDATION The Community Works Department recommends approval of Petition ZC 22-64, a request from Michael Smith, property owner, for a zone change from SF:7, single family residential to MF:M, SMHO, multifamily residential with the extension of the single family mobile home overlay to allow for placement of a new, single-wide manufactured home not on a permanent foundation on the property. 1. Site will be developed in general conformance to the site plan and drawings submitted with the zone change application. 2. All necessary building permits shall be obtained. 11 NAME1 ADDRESS CITYSTATEZIP BALL PAULETTE D TRUST 1816 E MOJAVE ST FARMINGTON, NM 87401 COGGINS GROUP LLC PO BOX 161 FARMINGTON, NM 87499 FARMINGTON REAL ESTATE HOLDING COMPANY L 504 AIRPORT DR FARMINGTON , NM 87401 LUCY CHARLOTTE L 1124 SMITH LN FARMINGTON, NM 87401-7631 MARQUEZ MARCOS M AND PEGGY A ETAL 1401 UTTON LN FARMINGTON, NM 87401-0000 SMITH MICHAEL AND JESSIE PO BOX 3136 FARMINGTON, NM 87499-3136 VIGIL ALVIN R AND BERNADETTE R PO BOX 872 FARMINGTON, NM 874990872 WEAVER THOMAS FAMILY TRUST 1207 UTTON LN FARMINGTON, NM 87401-7636 12 13 PLANNING MEMO COMMENTS SUMMARY ZC 22-64 DEADLINE: August 5, 2022 City of Farmington Departments CW Planning Manager – B.

STAFF REPORT, August 22, 2022 PROJECT INFORMATION Applicant Mike Hamilton, Mesa View Development Company Representative Scott Martin, Sakura Engineering Date of Application August 22, 2022 Requested Action Preliminary Plan Approval Location Block 4 and Lot 7, Block 3 located in the NE1/2 of the SW1/4 of Section 18, T29N, R12W, N.M.P.M. is a partially undeveloped parcel located at the eastern terminus of Wildflower Mesa Dr. City of Farmington. Existing Zoning MF – M, Multi-family Medium. Surrounding Zoning North: MF-M Undeveloped South: IND - Gravel mining and Land Use East: RA – San Juan County Juvenile Detention Center West: PD – Mesa Vista #7 Subdivision Class Class 1 Notice Preliminary Plans do not require notice Staff Planner Mike Safrany, Senior Planner SUBDIVISION INFORMATION Number of Lots 26 lots Acres of Land 7.05 Acres Minimum Lot Size 6,000 square feet (7,205 square feet is the smallest lot proposed) Utilities Water: Per City Standards Sewer: Per City Standards Electric: Per FEUS Engineering Access & Per City Standards Circulation Street Lights Per City Standards Street Sign Per City Standards Fire Hydrants Per City Standards Drainage Per City Standards P & R’s Fees Per City Standards NBU Mail Box Coordinate with USPS 15 GENERAL INFORMATION The petitioner is requesting preliminary plan approval for the Mesa Vista Subdivision No. 8, Replat A, a Class 1, 26-lot subdivision on a 7.05-acre undeveloped parcel located east of Mesa Vista Subdivision No 7. The final plat for Mesa Vista No. 8 was approved by the Planning & Zoning Commission on September 16, 2021 and the plat was recorded on September 30, 2021. The plat was approved in conjunction with Cecil’s Subdivision No. 2 Replat A, a recorded Final Plat which carved out a right-of-way from the adjacent parcel to the east to provide a connection of Wildflower Drive to Andrea Drive. The parcel to the east is owned by San Juan County and is the location of the Juvenile Detention Center. Phases 1-7 of the Mesa Vista Subdivision are almost completely built out. Mesa Vista No. 8 is not part of the Mesa Vista Planned Unit Development approved in 2007. The replat proposes a series of east/west cul-de-sacs connected to Lily Street and the removal of the north/south road, Rosita Street along the eastern boundary line adjacent to the detention center. The developer will be responsible for construction of all roads and infrastructure shown on the plat, including one-half of Lauren Road and the detention pond at Sophia and Lauren Street. Upon completion of the detention pond, maintenance will be the responsibility of the Mesa Vista Property Owners Association. This will be noted on the final plat. The developer will also be responsible for construction the extension of Wildflower Mesa Drive to the Andrea Drive intersection, along with the required intersection improvements identified in the Traffic Impact Analysis prepared by the project engineer. A sidewalk will be required on the north side of the Wildflower Mesa Drive. San Juan County has requested that no sidewalk be constructed on the south side of this road extension due to security concerns with the Juvenile Detention Center. The developer will be responsible for the construction of a 6-foot chain link fence with slats along this perimeter. San Juan County has agreed to construct a similar fence along the western property boundary. A non-vehicular access easement (NVAE) is being required for lots whose northern property lines abut Wildflower Mesa Drive. This is to prevent driveway access to this street, which, upon connection to Andrea Drive will be designated as a collector street. Lot 7A at the south end of the plat will also be restricted from accessing Lauren Street. ISSUES IDENTIFIED DURING INITIAL REVIEW Engineering Staff –Toni Sitta: 599-1399 and tsitta@fmtn.org  Please include a COF benchmark elevation with northing and easting on one corner of the surveyed lot.  Please double check the lots for distances and bearings – some are missing.  Please double check the length of the east boundary of the plat. The addition of the lengths of lots on that side do not seem to add up to the listed 1314.75 distance.  Please check the Plat Notes – if the notes do not apply to the Replat A area, please remove from the plat. 16 Engineering Staff –Isaac Blue Eyes: 599-1316 and iblue_eyes@fmtn.org  Recalculation on drainage for the new street/cul-de-sac layout.  For all cul-de-sacs, storm water shall be sub-surface. An inlet should be installed at the end of each cul-de-sac. Fire Marshall – Brandy Vega (505) 599-1439 bvega@firenet.org  Please submit full size site plan to assure hydrant number and placement are sufficient, road widths are sufficient and also cul-de-sacs are up to code. Planning Division – Mike Safrany 599-1333 and msafrany@fmtn.org  Per Section 6.4.4(A) of the Unified Development Code, a block length shall be at least 400 feet and not exceed 1,200 feet in single family residential areas. This issue will need to be resolved prior to the Preliminary Plan moving forward to the Planning and Zoning meeting.  Also show non-vehicular access easement (NVAE) on Plat drawing in addition to the note. Please include the lots whose north property lines are adjacent to Wildflower Mesa Drive and south property line of Lot 7A, Block 3.  Update Plat notes to correlate correctly with current revisions.  Please note the multiple Cul-de-Sac design does not substantially conform to the recorded plat of the Mesa Vista subdivision. There will be multiple points of contention brought up at the Planning and Zoning meeting such as Rosita Ct. no longer being a buffer between the Detention Facility and the residences. Increased traffic intersections at the Cul-de-Sac streets, awkward curb cuts to driveways limiting right of way parking, and also headlights shining into residences on the west side of Lily St. Staff would also like more detail as to the amount of cost savings this design would provide in lieu of the previous layout. Per Section 8.8.4 of the Unified Development Code, all subdivisions shall comply with the following minimum standards: A. Design and improvement standards. All subdivisions shall be designed and constructed in accordance with applicable requirements of: (1) Article 5, development standards; and (2) Article 6, subdivision design and improvements. Staff Comments: The proposed replat does not meet the requirements of Section 6.2.2 (A) of the Unified Development Code (UDC) requiring a block length of 400 feet minimum. Per UDC Section 6.4.7, staff has concerns about this new layout of cul-de-sacs negatively affecting the existing lots to the west of Lily Street and not being consistent with the rest of the Mesa Vista Subdivisions. In the original plat, Rosita Street, a 50-foot right-of-way along the eastern boundary with the detention center provided a buffer to the residential lots. With the replat, these lots will now share a property line with the detention center. B. Waivers. The commission may recommend and the council may approve, approve with conditions, or deny waivers of the standards in section 6.4, subdivision design standards, during the platting process. 17 Staff Comments: No waivers are requested for this application. C. Zoning consistency. All subdivisions and the resulting lots shall be consistent with the requirements of the applicable underlying zone district. Staff Comments: Proposed replat is consistent with the underlying zoning of MF: M. D. Comprehensive plan consistency. All subdivisions shall be reviewed for consistency with the comprehensive plan, and every plat approved by the city shall constitute an amendment, addition or a detail of the comprehensive plan or part thereof adopted by the commission. Staff Comments: The proposed single-family use is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan Land Use map, which designates this area as Low Density Residential of 4 dwelling units per acre The lot size does not conform to the ‘less than 1 acre but greater than 20,000 square feet’ designation of the plan. However, previous approvals for this subdivision include lots less than 10,000 square feet. The proposed lot sizes for No. 8 comply with the underlying zoning of MF-M. 18 Aerial Map of Surrounding Area 19 Preliminary Plat Sheet 20 Preliminary Plat Sheet 2 21 Final Plat to Cecil’s Subdivision to dedicate road right of way 22 STAFF CONCLUSION Staff recommends denial of Petition PP 22-66, Mesa Vista Subdivision No. 8 Replat “A” as the design does not substantially conform to the recorded plats of the Mesa Vista subdivisions, does not meet the minimum block length of 400 feet and removes a buffer to the property to the east. STAFF RECOMMENDATION The Community Works Department recommends denial of Petition PP 22-66, a request from Mike Hamilton, Mesa View Development, represented by Paul Martin of Sakura Engineering, for a preliminary plan of a Class 1, 26-lot subdivision on a 7.05-acre undeveloped parcel located at the eastern terminus of Wildflower Mesa Dr. in the City of Farmington. The lot sizes for No. 8 Replat “A” vary from 7,205 square feet to 13,559 square feet. 23 24 25 26 COMMUNITY WORKS PETITION REPORT Petition SUP 22-67: A request to add outside sales and display at 2307 E.

The applicant is requesting a Special Use Permit (SUP) to add the sale and display of portable storage sheds on the property. The petitioner is planning to continue to sell pre-owned vehicles on the property in addition to the sheds. Per UDC Sec. 2.3, outside sales and display is a special use in the GC zoning district, requires a SUP, and is subject to the use standards outlined in UDC Sec. 2.4.46. 27 Zoning 28 Aerial Map Zoomed Out 29 Aerial Map Zoomed In 30 Site Plan 31 Unified Development Code – Section 2.3 This section of the UDC outlines the allowed uses in each zoning district. Outside sales and display is a special use in the GC zoning district, requiring a Special Use Permit. Unified Development Code – Section 2.4.46 This section of the UDC outlines the use standards for outside display of goods and merchandise: A. A site plan prepared in accordance with the requirements of section 8.5 shall be approved and filed with the findings of fact and conclusions of law as part of the approval. B. The display area shall not encroach or interfere with on-site access, parking, circulation, or required landscaping. C. The display area shall not encroach upon a public street, alley, sidewalk, or other public property unless a permit for any such encroachment has been obtained from the city. D. The display area shall, at all times, be kept neat, clean, and free of litter and debris. E. All goods, merchandise, vehicles, or implements which remain on display shall be properly watched or otherwise secured against theft, vandalism, damage, or loss in accordance with the requirements of section 5.4, fencing and walls. UDC 8.9. A. Special Use Permits: The purpose of a Special Use Permit is to allow for discretionary approval of uses with unique operating characteristics. A. Special use permit approvals attach to the property and are transferable to subsequent owners. This SUP, if approved could transfer to another owner, carrier or tenant. Per UDC Sec. 8.9.6.A, Special Use Permit approval shall expire after 18 months from the date of approval if construction or operation of the approved use has not commenced. Special Use Permit Criteria – Section 8.9.4 of the UDC Section 8.9.4 of the UDC sets forth the criteria for review of a special use permit. The section states that a SUP may be approved where it is reasonably determined that there will be no significant negative impact upon residents of surrounding property or upon the public. The criteria for approval is listed as follows: A. Effect on environment: The location, size, design, and operation characteristics of the proposed use shall not be detrimental to the health, welfare, and safety of the surrounding neighborhood or its occupants and shall not be substantially or permanently injurious to the neighboring property. The proposed business should not be detrimental to health and safety in the surrounding area. 32 B. Compatible with surrounding area: The proposed site plan, circulation plan, and schematic architectural designs shall be harmonious with the character of the surrounding area with relationship to scale, height, landscaping and screening and density. The business will be compatible with the surrounding mixed commercial and industrial uses. C. External impacts minimized: The proposed use shall not have negative impacts on existing uses in the area and in the city through the creation of noise, glare, fumes, dust, smoke, vibration, fire hazard, or other injurious or noxious impact. The applicant shall provide adequate mitigation responses to the impacts. The proposed outdoor display and sales use will not have a negative impact on existing uses in the area. Per the applicant, sheds will be built off site and delivered to the property fully assembled. The sheds will be sold fully assembled from the property. D. Infrastructure impacts minimized: The proposed use shall not have negative impacts on existing uses in the area and in the city through impacts on public infrastructure. This includes examples such as roads, parking facilities and water and sewer systems, and on public services such as police and fire protection and solid waste collection, and the ability of existing infrastructure and services to provide services adequately. The proposed use will be similar to the existing pre-owned vehicle sales use and should not affect infrastructure in the area. E. Consistent with the UDC and Comprehensive Plan: The proposed use will be consistent with purposes of this UDC, the Comprehensive Plan, and any other statutes, ordinances or policies that may be applicable, and will support rather than interfere with the uses otherwise permitted in the zone in which it is located. The Comprehensive Plan’s 2040 Future Land Use Map recommends the subject area as “Employment Mixed Use” designed to serve a range of regional employment and service types with a focus on job types and higher concentration of employees. 33 F. Parcel size: The proposed use may be required to have additional land area, in excess of the minimum lot area otherwise required by the underlying zoning district, as necessary to ensure adequate mitigation of impacts on surrounding land uses and the zoning district. The subject property is 1.06 acres. F. Site Plan: The proposed use shall be required to comply with the site plan review procedures and standards of Section 8.5, site plan review, as specified. The applicant has submitted a site plan indicating the location for parking on the site and includes three parking spaces, one of which is an ADA Van-Accessible space. The site plan also includes the proposed placement of sheds and vehicles on the site. PUBLIC COMMENTS This petition has been properly noticed. Letters were sent to nine surrounding property owners. At the time of this report, no public comment has been received. 34 CITY OF FARMINGTON DEPARTMENT COMMENTS Traffic Engineer – Mark Hathcock • From the aerial view of the shed placements, it seems they will be blocking that southernmost entrance on Tucker Avenue. I would like the petitioner to abandon that driveway and replace it with curb and gutter. • At this point, I do not know how many deliveries they will be expecting via semi-truck, therefore I will want to see a plan on how the trucks will be entering and exiting the business when deliveries are made. There will be no unloading on the city street. POLICE Code Compliance – M. Romero • Make sure that the placement of the buildings does not impede the sight of traffic on Main Street or Tucker Avenue. The petitioner was able to provide an updated site plan to staff on August 31, 2022 that resolved the concerns. STAFF CONCLUSION Staff concludes the approval of Petition SUP 22-67 a request for a Special Use Permit to allow for the outside sale and display of portable storage sheds on the property. STAFF RECOMMENDATION The Community Works Department recommends approval of Petition SUP 22-67, a request from Patrick Martinez for a Special Use Permit to allow for the use of outdoor sales and display of portable storage sheds at 2307 E. Main St. with the following conditions of approval: 1. Per UDC section 5.2.3 & 5.2.10 – Installation of three parking spaces, one of which is to be ADA accessible / Van Accessible with appropriate signage shall be required.
