Title
ZON2007-38 (DP-306 Associated with CUP2007-39) - Extension of Time to complete Platting requirement for a zone change from SF 20 Single-Family Residential ("SF-20") and OW Office Warehouse ("OW") to LC Limited Commercial ("LC") and CUP DP-306 on property generally located north of 53rd Street North and West of Meridian. District 4.
Body
Recommended Action: Staff recommends that a two-year extension of time to complete platting requirements be granted to extend the platting deadline to September 7, 2013.
Background: On September 19, 2007, the Board of County Commissioners approved a zone change from SF-20 Single-family Residential (“SF-20”) and OW Office Warehouse (“OW”) to LC Limited Commercial (“LC”) and CUP DP 306 for approximately 20 acres located north of 53rd Street North and west of Meridian. The zone change was approved subject to platting the property within one year. The applicant is requesting an additional platting extension for two-years (see the attached letter).
Analysis: Staff recommends that a two-year extension of time to complete platting requirements be granted to extend the platting deadline to September 7, 2013.
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.
