General Information CASE; Comprehensive plan amendment (CPA 13-85) and Zone Change (ZC 15-85) REQUEST: Comprehensive Plan Amendment form Medium Density Residential to Medium High Density Residential and a Zone Change from R-12 (Residential, 12 units/acre) to R-25 (Residential, 25 units/acre). COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DESIGNATION: ZONING DESIGNATION: APPLICANT: Rosebud Enterprises Inc. OWNER: US Credit Loan Services 4209 SW Westdale Drive P.O. Box 4412 T-8 Portland, Oregon 97221 Portland, OR 97208 LOCATION: 10485 SW North Dakota Street (WCTM 1S1 34DA, T.L. 100) 2. Background On February 26, 1979, the City Council adopted the. NPO 07 Plan by Ordinance 79-11 which designated the property Urban Low Density. This designation was modified on May 9, 1983 wh&— the Council adopted Ordinance 83-24 which applied the 'Medium Density Residential classification to the property. A Comprehensive Plan Amendment (CPA 6-83) from Medium Density Residential to Medium High Density Residential and at Zone Change (ZC 7-83) from A-12 (Residential, 12 units/acre) to A-20 (Residential, 20 units/acre) was proposed in 1983. The request was withdrawn prior to action being taken by the City Council. 3. Vicinity Information Properties to the north and east on the opposite side of Fanno CrQQk are zoned Z P (Industrial Park) and are partially developed. The property ljmadiafely.to the west remains under Washington County jurisdiction and it is dQlmloped- with duplexes. Windsor Place subdivision (formerly Rosebud subdivision) which is zoned R-7 (PC) (Residential, 7 units/atcre. planned develspment) is Iodated to the nslrthwest. A small acreage homesite zoned R-12 is on the south side of North Dakota Street. STAFF REPORT - CPA 13-85 6 ZC '3-85 - PAGE 1 The subject property and the parcel to the south are identified in the Comprehensive Plan as being within a Developing Area. The subject property as well as the residential parcels to the west and the industrial properties to the north and east are considered to be Established Areas. 4. Site Information The property is presently undeveloped. The parcel contains 6.39 acres and approximately 2.35 acres situated in the southwestern portion of the property is above the 100 year flood plain of Fanno Creek. The applicant proposes to rezone the parcel to R-25 which is turn would allow for the construction of additional dwelling units over what is possible under the R-12 zone. Approximately 40 units would be allowed with the present zone and about 84 units are possible under an R-25 designation, This request is essentially the same as the 1983 proposal mentioned above. 5. Agency and NPO Comments The Engineering Division has no objection to the proposal but it is noted that development of the property will probably require a Sensitive !ands Permit. Also, half street improvements will be necessary along the North Dakota .Street frontage. The Building Inspection Division, Washington Count, Fire District No. 1, and School District 233 have no objection to the request. NPO #7 is opposed to the application because the rezoning woeld allow residential densities that are not consistent with the surrounding area. Also, it is felt that the accepted flood plain elevation of 162 feet is too low and practical experience indica`ces that this flood level is over 162 feet. S, FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS The relevant criteria in this case are Tigard Comprehensive Plan Policies 2,1.1, 3.2.1, 3.2.2, 3.2.31 3.5.3,3.5.4, 6.1.1. 6.3.2, 6.6.1, 7.1.2, 7.6.1, 8.1.3, 8.2.2, 12.1.1. and the Locational Criteria relating to Medium High Density Residential Development. Since the Tigard Comprehensive Plan has recently been ackowledged by L.C.D.C., it is no longer necessary to address the Statewide Planning Goals. The Planning staff has determined that the proposal is only partially consistent with the relevant portions of the Comprehensive Plan based upon the findings noted below: 1. Policv 2.1.1 is satisfied because- the Neightcrhood Planning Organization and surrounding prcYorty owners were given notice of the hearing and an opportunity to comment on the applicant's proposal. 2. Policies 3.2.1, 3.2.2, 3.2.3 and 7.2.1 relate to protection of the floor F,l^.in. These policies are more appropriately addressed in conjunction with a specific land development proposal• but it appears that a portion of she parcel can be developed in a manner consistsnt with City policy. STAFF REPORT - CPA 13-SS & ZC 15-85 - PAGE 2 3• Policies 3.5.3 and 3.5.4 can be satisfied as a condition of development approval. The dedication of the 100 year flood plain as gr'eenway and the construction of a pedestrian/bicycle path will be required at that time. 4. Policy 6.1.1 is satisfied because the proposal will not have a significant impact upon the diversity of housing types available in Tigard. The R-25 zone allows for a higher residential density but also permits the same lower density uses, such as single-family residential, as the R-12 zone. 5• Policies 6.3.2 and 6.6.1 can development however, be better addressed at the time of it appears that satisfactory compliance with density transition and buffering requirements can be met. 6• Policies 7.1.2, 7.6.1 and 8. for 1.3 are satisfied because adequate service capacity Public water, sanitary sewer, storm sewer, tion exist. Specific arrangements to utilize these facilities can be made when the property develops. 7• Policy 8.2.2 is satisfied because the property is within one quarter mile of the Tri-Met bus service on Greenburg Road as prescr-•ibed by the Locational Criteria for Medium High Density Residential Development. _ 6. Policy 12.1.1 is met because the ble Plan oliies, Locational Criteria and Community 00velopmentaCode provisionschave been applied. 9• The proposal is not consistent with all of the rmlevant Locational Criteria as noted below: a• The property is not committed to Low Density Residential development and therefore is eligible for a higher density designation. b. It appears that the subsequent development of the property the west. could be adequately buffered from the residential uses to - C. North Dakota Street is a minor collector and therefore, the criteria requiring direct access to major collector or arterial street is not n:et. d' Much of the property has limited development potential because of the 100 year flood plain but the remain-4::g 2.38 acre area is suitable for residential use. e. Adequate public facilities (except for streets as noted above) are available. f• The property is within one quarter mile of Greenburg Road which has scheduled bus service provided by Tri-Met. STAFF REPORT - CPA 13-85 & ZC 15-05 - PAGE 3 9. The convenience stores located at Greenburg Road and Shady Lane are over one quarter mile (.35 mile) from the eastern odge of the subject property and therefore the distance standard to a commercial center has not been met. h. The property includes a segment of the Fanno Creek flood plain which will be dedicated as part of the open space system as a condition of development. In summary, the proposal complies with the majority of Comprehensive Plan policies. The two shortcomings of the application relate to the lack of direct access to a major collector or arterial street and the distance to commercial services. The purpose of these two standards, as well as the other criteria relating to service availability, is to locate higher density residential development as close to essential services as possible. When these policies are implemented, higher density residential uses will tend to be clustered together near commercial centers rather than being interspersed within areas of lower density development. C. RECOMENDATION Based upon the above findings and conclusions, the Planning Staff recommends denial of CPA 18-85 and ZC 15-85. s PREPA ED BY: Keith Li,',-:n APPROVED BY: William A.
