Applicant LaMont Smith is requesting approval of a Zoning Map Amendment for approximately 1.13 acres located on the North side of 1000 East at 13200 South.  The property is currently zoned RA1 (Residential Agricultural, 40,000 sq. ft. minimum).  The applicants are seeking a change in zoning designation from RA1 (Single-family Residential, 40,000 sq. ft. minimum) to RA2 (Single-family Residential, 20,000 sq. ft. minimum).

The Planning Commission reviewed this item at their April 2, 2020 meeting and forwarded a positive recommendation with a 5-0 vote.

For approval: 

 1.  That Section 9-5-060 of the Draper City Municipal Code allows for the amendment of the city’s zoning map;

 2.  That all findings for a zone map change, as contained in DCMC Section 9-5-060 (E), are satisfied;

 3.  That adequate facilities and services exist to serve the subject property, including but not limited to roadways, parks and recreation facilities, police and fire protection, schools, storm water drainage systems, water supplies, and waste water and refuse collection; 

 4.  That the proposed zone map change is harmonious with the overall character of existing development in the vicinity of the subject property; and the General Plan.

For denial: 

 1.  The proposed amendment is not consistent with goals, objectives and policies of the Draper City General Plan.

 2.  That the findings for a zone map change, as contained in DCMC Section 9-5-060 (E), are not satisfied.

 3.  The RA2 zone is not appropriate for this parcel given the surrounding zoning on two sides.
