STRUCTURE PLAN AbIENDMENT:
As mentioned, the Final Draft of the I-25 Sub Area Plan, which calls for U-E zoning, has not yet
been considered by the Planning and Zoning Board nor adopted by the City Council. Since the
Structure Plan Map indicates "Rural Open Lan"Stream Corridor and Employment;' a Structure
Plan amendment is part of this request. The Structure Plan Map also designates I-25 as a
"Special Study Corridor" indicating that the 1997 version of the Structure Plan did not provide
sufficient guidance for land use decision -making and that future land use considerations were
anticipated.
A. Request
Section 2.9.4( (2)(a)(ows mg requ to be justified if the proposed
request is consi ntowtmpreh ive Plan. (The Structure Plan is a
component of the Comprehensive Plan.) According to Council Resolution 2000-
140, a Comprehensive Plan Amendment may be approved if the City Council
makes specific findings that:
The existing City Plan and/or any related element thereof is in
need of the proposed amendment; and
The rop0ity
r Ian end ent will promote the public
f1farec tsis �tty e vision, goals, principles and
1po icies ot�g�elements�fifiereof.
B. Staff Analysis of Structure Plan Amendment:
(1) Staff finds that the Structure Plan is in need of Change because the final draft
of the I-25 Sub Area Plan identifies that the property's designation should be
changed from it's current designation of "Rural Open Lands / Stream
Corridors" to a designation of "Urban Estate."
(2) Staff finds that the proposed Structure Plan amendment will promote the
public welfare�6y�s ` t yin kt
us' c figuration at the edge of the
co unit
hat wtl provi ifrans � n between the higher intensity
industrial s local adj he I-2highway and the larger lot rural
residential de elopmen ey located'east of County Road 5.
(3) Staff finds that the Structure Plan amendment will be consistent with the
vision, goals, principles and policies of City Plan because the principle and
policy statements within City Plan specify that the I-25 subarea planning
efforts will tailor City Plan's city-wide perspective to individual
neighborhoods, districts, corridors and edges.
THE PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD HEARING
The Planning and Zoning Board recommended approval of the requested Structure Plan
amendment, annexation and zoning on January 16, 2003 by a vote of 5-0.

I-25 SUB -AREA PLAN:
A. Regional I-25 Plan.
The.parcel is contained within the I-25 Sub Area Plan. This sub -area plan is a
component of the 1-25 Regional Communities Corridor Plan, which was adopted by
the City Council in November of 2001.
B. City Plan's reference to the I-25 Sub Area Plan.

C. U-E Zoning within the I-25 Sub a.
The Final Dra of the I 5 Su recta -PI n ca for a mix of neighborhoods and
densities. The ' t ra tat �ihe Urban tate classification is intended to
allow for choices of very low density and large -lot housing in the community, and
to -provide a physical transition between urban development and rural/open lands.
Most of the undeveloped areas designated for residential development in the
Subarea Plan are classified as Urban Estate areas that will have a maximum
allowable density of two (2) dwelling units per acre. These areas provide for a
transition between the higher intensity commercial and industrial uses located
adjacent to the I-25 highway and a larger lot residential development (2 �/z acre
lots) east of County Road 5�." -�

I-25 Sub Area Plan identifies the property as Urban Estate. Therefore, the
applicant has applied for U-E zoning in conformance with the Final Draft of the I-
25 Sub Area Plan.
D. Status of the I-25 Sub Area Plan.
The I-25 Sub Area Plan has not been adopted at this time. The Planning and
Zoning Board and City Council schedule the Plan for consideration in the Spring
of 2003. The Structure Plan identified the need to do additional planning for the
I-25 corridor by designating the area as the 1-25 Special Study Corridor.
consider annexation of property in the UGA when the property is eligible for annexation
according to state law.
ZONING AND ANALYSIS:
The property is currently zoned FA1 - Farming in Latimer County. The requested zoning upon
annexation is the Urban Estate District (UE). An assignment of UE zoning is consistent with the
Streamside Planned Land Division (PLD), which is a County development application, currently
under review, that encompasses the site. Part of the Streamside PLD application under review
by the County is to rezone the property to PD — Planned Development. The County's PD zone
functions similarly to the form [y z e� t i at nsity and intensity restrictions
were determined on a site s cific a s. h c o --side PLD, the gross density
proposed is 1.82 dwelling unr per acr and t ensity posed is 2.07 dwelling units per
acre.
The annexation of this property will allow the building permits to be issued under the City's
jurisdiction. During the review of the County development application for Streamside PLD, City
staff worked closely with the applicant to ensure that the application would be developed in
accordance with the City's floodplain regulations for the Boxelder Creek floodplain.
Annexation of the Streamside PLD prior to the issuance of building permits gives the City the
authority to enforce the County's development approval, in particular, the adherence to the
applicable floodplain regulation
For clarification, the difference inthe stden 1 enst y pe tted within the County's FA1 —
Farming zone district and the Ctt 's Urb Es to zone jjtrict is as follows:
FA1 — Farming (Existing County Zoning). Maximum density is limited to one lot per
100,000 square feet (2.3 acres). 100,000 square feet can cluster these lots in a "Conservation
Development" configuration so long as the total number of lots does not exceed the total
allowed by dividing the total developable area. "Conservation Development" lots on septic
systems can be no smaller than 2 acres. "Conservation Development" lots on public water
and sewer systems are not required to meet minimum lot size requirements (except for the
purpose of calculating density). ..
PD — Planned DevelopmW—t (Coon Zont tre Tide Final Plat Approval). This
zone is intended to be us within row agement eas and is intended to give the
flexibility needed to accortimodate rba level de lopment consistent with 'the
municipalities master plans. On a case by case basis, the County Commissioners determine
minimum lot sizes, densities and intensities of use based on any applicable IGA.
UE — Urban Estate (Requested City Zoning). Maximum density shall not exceed an overall
average density of 2 dwelling units per acre. Lot sizes shall be 1h acre or larger unless they
are clustered. Density within clustered portions of a development shall not exceed 5 units
per acre. Cluster development shall set aside at least 50 percent of the total land area of the
proposed development as private or public open space that is permanently preserved as open
space.

This property is eligible for annexation according to CRS, requiring 1/6 contiguity to the existing
city limits. Streamside Annexation and Zoning complies with this standard since the property
has 2869.70 feet of its total boundary of approximately 13,742.27 feet contiguous to the existing
City limits. This meets the minimum 2290.38 feet required to achieve 1/6 contiguity. This
contiguity occurs through a common boundary with the Peterson Annexation, which is under
review and will be processed simultaneously with this Streamside Annexation.
