The subject property is currently undeveloped. TF-3 zoning district minimum lot size is 6,000 square feet. Property north and west of the subject site is zoned TF-3 and is currently developed with duplexes. Property to the south is zoned LC Limited Commercial and is currently undeveloped. Property east of the subject site is zoned SF-5, and is developed with single-family residences. CASE HISTORY: The subject site was platted in October 2014 (SUB2014-20). There are no other zoning cases associated with this property. ADJACENT ZONING AND LAND USE: NORTH: TF-3 Duplexes SOUTH: LC Undeveloped EAST: SF-5 Single-family residences WEST: TF-3 Duplexes PUBLIC SERVICES: South 127th Street East is a two-lane arterial street with a 115-foot right-of-way. East Timber Lake Road is a local collector with a 32-foot right-of-way and has direct access to South 127th Street East. Water and Sewer Utilities are available to the site. CONFORMANCE TO PLANS/POLICIES: The Wichita-Sedgwick County Community Investments Plan, 2035 Future Growth Map identifies the area in which the site as “New Residential.” This area will likely be developed or redeveloped by 2035 with uses predominantly found in the Residential category. Pockets of major Institutional and Commercial uses likely will be developed within the area as well, based upon market- driven location factors. RECOMMENDATION: Based upon the information available at the time the staff report was completed, staff recommends APPROVAL of the request, as submitted. 1. The zoning, uses and character of the neighborhood: Property north and west of the subject site is zoned TF-3 and is currently developed with duplexes. Property to the south is zoned LC Limited Commercial and is currently undeveloped. Property east of the subject site is zoned SF-5, and is developed with single-family residences. 2. The suitability of the subject property for the uses to which it has been restricted: The property is presently zoned SF-5 Single Family Residential and the property could be developed with new single-family dwellings; however the property has been vacant for six years. 3. Extent to which removal of the restrictions will detrimentally affect nearby property: Two platted additions adjacent to the subject are zoned TF-3. The re-zoning of the parcel to TF-3 will not detrimentally affect nearby properties. 4. Length of time the property has been vacant as currently zoned: This property has been undeveloped since it was platted in 2014. 5. Conformance of the requested change to the adopted or recognized Comprehensive Plan and policies: The Wichita-Sedgwick County Community Investments Plan, 2035 Future Growth Map identifies the area in which the site as “New Residential.” This area will likely be developed or redeveloped by 2035 with uses predominantly found in the Residential category. Pockets of major ZON2020-00039 Metropolitan Area Planning Commission Page 2  Institutional and Commercial uses likely will be developed within the area as well, based upon market- driven location factors. 6. Impact of the proposed development on community facilities: Development of the property would not have any impact on community facilities or resources. All public improvements are available to serve the property.
