Title
ZON2008-00025 Extension of Time to Complete Platting Requirement for a Zone Change from SF-20 Single-Family Residential ("SF-20") to LC Limited Commercial ("LC") on property generally located south of 21st Street North and west of 159th Street East (15621 East 21st Street North). District 1.
Body
Recommended Action:Staff recommends that a one-year extension of time to complete platting requirements be granted to extend the platting deadline to September 7, 2012.
Background: On July 23, 2008, the Board of County Commissioners approved a zone change from SF-20 Single-family Residential (“SF-20”) to LC Limited Commercial (“LC”) on 4.86 acres located south of 21st Street North and west of 159th Street East. The zone change was approved subject to platting the property within one year. The Board of County Commissioners has approved platting extensions through August 11, 2011. The property owners are requesting an additional platting extension for one-year (see the attached letter).
Analysis: Staff recommends that a one-year extension of time to complete platting requirements be granted to extend the platting deadline to September 7, 2012.
Alternatives: The Board of County Commissioners may deny the request for an extension of time to complete platting. Such a decision would declare the zone change null and void and would require reapplication and rehearing if the property owner still desired the zone change.
Financial Considerations: Not Applicable.
Legal Considerations: Approved as to form by County Counselor’s Office
Policy Considerations: Wichita-Sedgwick County Metropolitan Area Planning Commission Policy Statement No. 5 indicates that an extension of time to complete the platting requirement may be granted by the Board of County Commissioners in this instance.
