Title
CUP2006-46 (Associated with ZON2006-45) - Extension of time to complete platting requirement for a zone change from SF-20 Single-family Residential (“SF-20”) to LC Limited Commercial (“LC”); generally located on the northwest corner of 21st Street North and 159th Street East. (District 1)
Body
Recommended Action: Approve two-year plat extension.
Background: On December 6, 2006, the Board of County Commissioners approved a zone change from SF-20 Single-family Residential (“SF-20”) to LC Limited Commercial (“LC”) and CUP DP- 303 for approximately 16 acres located on the northwest corner of 21st Street North and 159th Street East. The zone change was approved subject to platting the property within one year. The Board of County Commissioners has approved a two-year platting extension three times, with a current platting deadline of December 5, 2014. The applicant now requests another two-year platting extension; the attached letter from the applicant’s agent indicates that due to the present economic opportunities, they would like to request a two-year platting extension.
Analysis: Staff recommends that a two-year extension of time to complete platting requirements be granted to extend the platting deadline to December 5, 2016.
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 and signed by County Counselor’s Office. No legal documents are required to enact the granting of platting extension. The granting of a platting extension is indicated via letter to the applicant noting the date of the action by the Board of County Commissioners.
