FACTS AND FINDINGS
1. Site Context
The surrounding zoning and land uses are as follows:
N: L-M-N; Existing and Future single-family Residential (Lind Subdivision)
S: L-M-N; Existing recreation center and future development (Maple Hill
Subdivision)
E: L-M-N; Future single-family residential (Maple Hill Subdivision)
W: R; Future single-family residential (Maple Hill Subdivision)
The Maple Hill project is part of a larger 320-acre parcel that was annexed in
1978.
The parcel is located within the Mountain Vista Area Plan adopted by City
Council in March of 1999. The 160-acre Gillespie Farm Overall Development
Plan was approved in February of 2001 and amended in October of 2002.
The original Maple Hill subdivision was approved on September 9, 2003. This
approved project represents the first and largest phase of a residential
subdivision that is located on 136.89 acres at the southeast corner of Turnberry
Road (previously named County Road 11) and Richards Lake Road. This was
followed by a replat in August 2004 which resulted in an increase of 10 single
family lots and a decrease in seven duplex lots for an overall gain of three lots.
2. Compliance with Article 4 and the LMN Zoning District Standards:
The plat complies with the standards found under Article Four of the Land Use
Code. The applicant's request to reconfigure Lots 5 and 6 of Block 2, and Tract
C, complies with the following standard:
Section 4.4(D) — Land Use Standards
Since there are no new lots or residential units associated with the replat, the
PDP will continue to comply with the minimum density requirement of the zoning
district and the approved Gillespie Farm ODP.
There was no evidence introduced at the hearing to contradict the Staff Report;
therefore, the Hearing Officer finds that the Subdivision is in conformance with
the applicable requirements found in Article 4 of the Land Use Code.

Planning and Zoning Director
The Applicant has submitted a request to replat a portion of the Maple Hill Subdivision
which is generally located at the southeast corner of Richards Lake Road and Turnberry
Road.
The purpose of the replat is to accommodate an existing irrigation well. The replat
includes Lots 5 and 6 and Block 2, and Tract C of the Maple Hill Subdivision. Lots 5
and 6 are proposed to be moved approximately 30 feet to the west, and which results in
Tract C being reconfigured to accommodate the existing well. There are no new
buildings or lots associated with the replat, and the square footage of the lots and tract
will remain the same.
