Rd. 40, Case No. LU 08-01 -Public Reviewed by <br />Hearing <br />Action Requested <br />Approval of a land use amendment, removing the subject property from the urban services district and <br />placing it in the rural service district. <br />Summary <br />The subject property was included in the urban services (city water and sewer) in preparation for Liberty <br />Heights Estates. As part of that approval, a condition was included that should a preliminary plat fail to <br />be approved, the property would go back to its original rural designation. This action accomplishes that. <br />Planning Commission Discussion <br />The Planning Commission questioned the history of the project, and felt comfortable with the <br />amendment, noting its consistency with the original Council decision. <br />Public Comment <br />There were several comments made during the public hearing. Two residents noted that property values <br />of water/ sewer available land is higher than land outside of the boundary. Other comments received <br />related to the need to include properties to the south in urban services, and the need to provide <br />connection to properties to the west. <br />Attachments <br />• Staff report to Planning Commission dated September 10, 2008 <br />• Resolution <br />Action Motion by Second by Vote <br />Follow Up <br />C:\Documents and Settings\jmiller\Local Settings\Tempoxary Internet Files\OLK3E\CC staff report 9-15-08.doc <br />
