ZONE CHANGE to reclassify 11.4 acres from R-U (Rural Open Land) Zone and R-E (Rural Estates Residential) Zone to R-2 (Medium Density Residential) Zone for a single family residential development in the MUD-4 Overlay District.

 

DESIGN REVIEW for a single family residential development. Generally located on the southeast corner of Haven Street and Starr Avenue within Enterprise (description on file). SS/al/ml (For possible action)

No builder associated with this development.  The plans present by the applicant are American West Plans obtained during previous business dealings.  At the TAB hearing the American West representative clearly state that they are not associated with this application. It appears that this project is highly speculative and will likely change in the future.

 

The TAB position on the non-conforming zone changes was based upon answering the following:

·   What significant changes have occurred in the neighborhood to compel this application?

·   What is the cumulative effect of the numerous non-conforming zone changes on neighborhood and public services?

·   Does the non-conforming zone change significantly alter the land use plan?

·   Has the applicant met the Title 30 compelling justification?

 

A recent BCC decision has changed the nature of the land use east of Las Vegas Blvd. and south of Starr to residential.  Some land in this area is still planned for commercial which most likely will change to residential in the land use update.

 

The cumulative impact of numerous small projects will have a significant impact on the need for schools; require creation of primary job opportunities; conveniently located retail/commercial, roads and public facilities. 

 

The TAB added two conditions.  First, the density to be restrict to no more than 7 units/acre.  TAB reasoning is the schools are overcrowded and each new residential project will add to that overcrowding.  Any increase in density for this project should require a public hearing due to the effect on public services.

 

The TAB has consistently recommended street lighting be fully shielded.  His helps produce an aesthetically pleasing neighborhood while maintaining a safe lighting level.

 

The TAB had questions about the easement for the power line along the Doobie right of way.  The applicant indicated the power line could be placed underground but did not answer the question on the easement required.  The plan presented may not be possible due to the power line easement.

The TAB limited the building height to 29 ft. to preclude the applicant three story model in this area.  A three story model would be out of place in this neighborhood.  The highest two story model is 29 feet.

The cumulative impact of numerous small projects will have a significant impact on the need for schools; require creation of primary job opportunities; conveniently located retail/commercial, roads and public facilities. 

 

The applicant’s position is this area does not have sufficient residential density to support a retail/commercial development and the area south of St Rose parkway is where the retail will be located.

The city of Henderson has programed that area for industrial use around the Executive airport.  There is significant established residential density to the east in the city of Henderson.

 

This area is in a transition from hotel-resort and commercial to residential.  This transition has been furthered by recent BCC decisions.  It is too early in the transition process to eliminate the all commercial along Starr.  The residential density in the area will increase as the transition occurs.  Traffic at Starr and Bermuda will increase when the I-15/Starr interchange is completed.  The elimination of commercial at this location may significantly increase the traffic flow in other area as residents seek retail establishments.

The TAB agrees with the following staff analysis:

 

The applicant generally states that approval of the Mountain's Edge major project constitutes a change that would make this request consistent with surrounding development. However, the aforementioned project is master planned and went through a process to address land use planning on a more comprehensive scale. A request to reclassify 5 acres outside of the disposal boundary surrounded and within an area designated as Open Space/Public Lands Management area is not consistent with the development pattern. There are no unique or special circumstances that have occurred in the immediate area since the adoption of the Enterprise Land Use Plan to make this request appropriate. The site is located in a predominantly undeveloped area, which consists of a few privately owned parcels and approximately 270 acres of BLM land.

 

This area must be thoroughly planned before development is allowed.  If this project goes forward it should comply with the Mountains Edge standards.

The parcel east of Park Street is affected by BCC recent actions and should be granted The R-2 zone district.  This will create a cohesive neighborhood.  The TAB agrees with the Staff analysis on the parcel west of Park Street.

 

The applicant indicates that the development trends in this portion of Enterprise have changed to residential; however, the single family residential development approved to the north and east conformed to the Enterprise Land Use Plan. All of the land to the west of Park Street north of Serene Avenue is designated as Commercial General and Business and Design/Research Park in the land use plan and undeveloped with the exception of single family dwellings on 2.5 acre lots. Staff finds that there have been no significant changes in law, policies, trends, or facts to make this amendment appropriate.
