DEVELOPMENT FOR A ZONING CHANGE ON A 4.362 ACRE PORTION OF THE
COBB ADDITION FROM AG AGRICULTURAL DISTRICT TO 01 OFFICE DISTRICT
(PROPERTY LOCATED IN THE 8000 BLOCK OF PRECINCT LINE ROAD) -
ORDINANCE NO. 2500
APPROVED
Mr. John Barfield, applicant, was available to answer questions from Council.
Mr. John Pitstick, Director of Development, addressed the request as it relates to city
codes and ordinances and summarized recommendations of staff and the Planning and
Zoning Commission. One note of interest, this request is not in conformance with
current land use plan. The Comprehensive Land Use Plan calls for Single Family at
this site, directly south of this property is an existing mobile home park. If this is zoned
for Office Council may be setting it up for Office on the north and south end of this tract.
Mr. Pitstick believes Office could be compatible several years from now, but believes it
is more compatible today for single family.
Mayor Scoma advised Mr. Barfield that Council received a letter. The letter described
an apparent dispute regarding the property having a drive or right-of-way access.
Mr. Barfield advised Council that his property does not have a dedication.
Mr. Pitstick advised Council there is a current access easement that runs along the
Dodd property. The Dodd's contacted staff and they would like to see proposed tract
zoned for office.
Mayor Scoma opened the public hearing and asked for anyone wishing to speak to
come forward. There being no one wishing to speak, Mayor Scoma closed the public

reconsider this item to amend the Comprehensive Land Use Plan to match the zoning
change as approved by Council.

Plan in the near future.

Plan through a reconsideration of Item 9.
