Elm Street, Rezoning from C-2 to RA-2 and Final Subdivision Plat. Request filed by Phoenix Healthcare Realty Holdings LLC, property owner, for a rezoning of 0.12 acres from C-2 General Commercial to RA-2 High Density Residential and a three lot subdivision.

The property is located on the north side of West Elm Street 150 feet west of Broadway Street and is described as lnlot 686, Jefferson City, Missouri (Bartlett and West, Consultant). Mr. Barron described the proposal and explained that this is a single tract with two houses and a parking lot at the rear of the property.

Phoenix Healthcare, the new owner, is interested in the parking lot portion of the property only with no desire to retain ownership of the houses. The owners have submitted a plan that would divided the property into 3 lots, one lot for each house and one for the parking lot. A rezoning proposal to shift the C-2/RA-2 zoning boundary on the property to align with the lot line boundary between the residential lots and commercial parking lot is included with the subdivision plat application. Easements across the parking lot tract would be granted to each of the residential lots so that vehicle access and parking could be accommodated at the rear of the residential lots. He stated that the Board of Adjustment has approved variances from the minimum lot width and street frontage regulations of the Zoning Code that would permit the subdivision to be plated as proposed.

Elm Street, Rezoning from C-2 to RA-2 and Final Subdivision Plat. Request filed by Phoenix Healthcare Realty Holdings LLC, property owner, for a rezoning of 0.12 acres from C-2 General Commercial to RA-2 High Density Residential and a three lot subdivision. The purpose of the request is to divide the property into three lots and align the zoning boundary along the lot lines so that the property can be used as a commercial parking lot in the rear and two residential lots in the front. The property is located on the north side of West Elm Street 150 feet west of Broadway Street and is described as In lot 686, Jefferson City, Missouri (Bartlett and West, Consultant). Nature of Reguest This property consists of single tract (one of the original Inlets of Jefferson City) with two houses, each of which has been converted into a two unit building, and a parking lot at the rear of the property. Of the two houses, both are vacant and one is in a state of severe dilapidation and in need of demolition. The property was recently acquired by Phoenix Healthcare, who have offices located a short distance away at 500 Broadway Street, and they are interested in the parking lot portion of the property only with no desire to retain ownership of the houses. After consultation with Planning Division Staff, they have submitted a plan that would divide the property into 3 lots (one lot for each house and one for the parking lot). A variance from the Zoning Code street frontage requirement for the parking lot tract (allowing it to be split from the rest of the property although it's only access is from an alley) was approved by the Board of Adjustment at their September 13 meeting. Variances from the 60 feet minimum lot width requirement were also approved by the Board of Adjustment to permit the two houses to be plated on separate lots with 52 feet of lot width each. A rezoning proposal to shift the C-21RA-2 zoning boundary on the property to align with the lot line boundary between the residential lots and commercial parking lot is included with the subdivision plat application. Easements across the parking lot tract would be granted to each of the residential lots so that vehicle access and parking could be accommodated at the rear of the residential lots (negating the need for driveway access from Elm Street). Zoning History Prior to 1987, the property was entirely zoned RA-2. In 1987 the rear portion of the property was rezoned to C- 2 for the purpose of constructing a parking lot.

Please see Exhibit 35-28 for a complete list of authorized uses. Minimum lot area for two family uses within the RA-2 district are 3,000 sf per dwelling and minimum lot area for multi-family uses within the RA-2 district are 1,500 sf per dwelling unit. Planning and Zoning Commission Case No. P16020 S ff A I . fR P ta naiVSIS 0 ezonlnf! roposa Standard checklist for rezoning: Complies with Comprehensive Plan Has access to necessary utilities Located outside flood zone Meets district size requirement Benefit to City is substantial when compared to adverse affects on adjacent property After rezoning, the allowed uses would be compatible with uses allowed in adjacent districts After rezoning, the allowed uses would be compatible with adjacent existing land uses If not rezoned, the owner would be deprived of use advantages enjoyed by surrounding owners (reverse spot zoning) The requested rezoning would be an expansion of an existing district Staff Analysis of Subdivision Plat Yes No X X X X X X X X X November 10,2016 Page 2 Notes: The Comprehensive Plan identifies the property as intended for high density residential use, which would support the requested rezoning. The property has access to necessary utilities. The property does not lie within the 100 year floodplain. The rezoning would be an expansion of an existing RA-2 district. The rezoning would realign the zoning boundary with the property lines shown on the associated subdivision plat. The RA-2 zoning would match the zoning of the properties to each side. The RA-2 district would be compatible with the surrounding area. The C-2/RA-2 zoning boundary currently bisects the residential portion of the property. Realigning the boundary to the future lot line is appropriate. The rezoning would be an expansion of the adjacent RA-2 zoning. The final subdivision plat, titled ''Inlot 686 Subdivision", shows three lots. Lot 1 and Lot 2 are drawn around the existing houses fronting on Elm Street. Lot 3 is drawn around the existing parking lot located to the rear of the property. Lots I and 2 would each include a small portion of the existing parking lot, which would serve the parking needs of each lot, and a proposed 20 feet wide access easements for each lot is shown across the parking lot tract. Lots I and 2 are shown with a lot width of 52 feet each, which would not meet the standard 60 feet lot width of the RA-2 district, however, the Board of Adjustment approved a lot width variance for these two lots to permit the 52 feet lot width. Lot 3 would not meet the Zoning Code requirement for street frontage, as the only frontage for the lot is along an alley (which does not qualify as a street), however, the Board of Adjustment approved a variance from the street frontage requirement to allow the lot to have sole access from an alley. A condition of that variance is that no permanent structure may be constructed upon the lot. Staff Recommendations: Rezoning Request: Staff recommends approval of the request to rezone the property from C-2 to RA-2. The proposed rezoning consists of a small portion of the property, which is currently in residential use, and would align the zoning boundary with the proposed lot lines of the subdivision plat. Final Subdivision Plat: Staff recommends approval of the Final Subdivision Plat. With the lot width and street frontage variances approved by the Board of Adjustment, and subject to technical comments on the plat document identified by staff, the plat meets the requirements of subdivision plats and applicable zoning regulations.

Motion to approve the request to rezone the property, consisting of 0.12 acres, from C-2 to RA-2. 2. Motion for approval of the Final Subdivision Plat of Inlot 686 Subdivision, subject to the following conditions: a.
