Ordinance No. 3341 (Word Version)

Faircloud Subdivision consists of 55 lots on approximately 16.53 acres in three filings. When annexed to the City as part of the Darla Jean Annexation, this parcel was zoned RSF-4. As part of an approved development application, Faircloud was zoned to PR 3.4 on April 1, 1998.

When the revised zoning map was adopted on March 7, 2000 these parcels were inadvertently zoned RSF-4 instead of PD (Planned Zone), reflecting the existing zoning of PR 3.4. The PD zone is necessary to develop this subdivision as intended. Unless the zoning is corrected, side yard setbacks and lot sizes in the subdivision would become nonconforming. The subdivision is only partially built out.

The original planned zone for this subdivision had no default standards since it was approved under the former code, which did not require them. A default zone of RSF-4 is recommended. The density of this subdivision, 3.33 dwellings per acre, most closely corresponds with the density of the RSF-4 zone district. All standards of the RSF-4 zone district, including allowed uses, apply to this subdivision unless stated otherwise in the bulk standards approved for this planned zone.

The Future Land Use Map of the Growth Plan shows a Residential Medium Low 2-4 dwellings per acre designation for this parcel. The PD zone is in conformance with this designation as it was when it was originally zoned.

At its hearing of April 10, 2001 the City Planning Commission recommended approval of this correction to the zoning map.

NOW, THEREFORE BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GRAND JUNCTION, COLORADO:
