FROM: Planning Commission
DATE: August 7, 2014
SUBJECT:
An Ordinance Amending Ordinance Number 3100, being the Aurora Zoning Ordinance and the Zoning Map attached thereto, by Rezoning Property located at 146 N. State Street from R-4 Two Family Dwelling to R-3 One Family Dwelling (Alfredo and Emilia Puga - 14-00571 / AU23/3-14.212-Rz - ES - Ward 2) (PUBLIC HEARING)
PURPOSE:
The Petitioner, Alfredo and Emilia Puga, has submitted a Rezoning Petition to downzone the property from R-4 Two Family Dwelling District to R-3 One-Family Dwelling District located at 146 N. State Street. It is currently a single family home.
BACKGROUND:
This property is on the east side of town in an area of primarily single family homes with a scattering of two family dwellings.
DISCUSSION:
This petition will bring the zoning into compliance with the current use of the property. This also matches the City policy of lowering density in certain older neighborhoods.
IMPACT STATEMENT:
The Planning and Zoning Division would anticipate that this project will increase the City's overall tax base and viability by facilitating investment and development. This will lower density thus reducing the demand for City services.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Staff would recommend APPROVAL of the An Ordinance Amending Ordinance Number 3100, being the Aurora Zoning Ordinance and the Zoning Map attached thereto, by Rezoning Property located at 146 N. State Street from R-4 Two Family Dwelling to R-3 One Family Dwelling.
