CASE NO:
Zoning Change and Concept Plan for 1900 Shady Oaks Drive
PROJECT:
REQUEST:
Gordon Wayne Davis is requesting approval of a zoning change and concept plan
from SF-1A Single Family Residential District to SF-2 Single Family Residential
District on approximately 9.62 acres of land. The applicant is requesting the zoning
change to take advantage of the 180 day fee waiver period approved by the City
Council for SF-2 zoning changes and to have up to 3% of the lot area for accessory
buildings. There is an existing home having approximately 5,000 square feet of
floor area and an existing accessory building having approximately 1,900 square
feet of floor area on the property. The maximum accessory building area allowed
by SF-2 zoning on this lot would be approximately 12,571 square feet. The
applicant has indicted that the future intent is to remove the existing 1,900 square
feet accessory building and replace it with a 7,500 square feet implement barn.
This building would be subject to compliance with the architectural design
standards as specified in the district. The current SF-1A zoning allows a sum total
of all accessory structures/buildings of 3% of the lot area but not to exceed 4,000
sq. ft. Due to the limited scope of this request, no review summary was created for
this item.
Consider first reading for a zoning change

undivided collector roadway with 60 feet of right-of-way adjacent to this site.
Existing Area Road Network and Conditions
The tract has direct access to Shady Oaks Drive Currently, Shady Oaks is a
2-lane, undivided roadway. The capacity of the existing roadway is
approximately 8,400 vehicle trips per day. Under this condition, the roadways
would be considered to operate under a level of service ‘D’. This development
is notexpected to warrant expansion of the existing roadway network.
