General Plan - Medium Density Residential - Community Development
Director Shaw reported that since the completion of the General Plan
Committee Land Use Map recommendation, staff has been concerned as to
whether there are adequate sites designated Medium Density Residential to meet
low income housing requirements. A review of land use acreage and anticipated
units based on the latest recommendations of the City Council regarding land
use has been completed. Based on this analysis, staff believes there is a
shortage of Medium Density Residential sites. Staff has identified a total of
171.5 acres designated Medium Density Residential which is undeveloped and
located within the current City limits. While the maximum capacity of Medium
Density Residential is 15 units per acre, the consultant indicated an assumed
average of 12 units per acre. Given 171.5 acres at 12 units per acre, it would
result in 2,058 units and would fall short by approximately 143 units as
identified for the housing needs for low income housing. He identified some
alternatives for Council's consideration in resolving this deficiency.
Councilmember Larson left the meeting at 11:00 A.M. Councilmember
Cunningham suggested changing the average to 13 units per acre.
Councilmember Foster wanted to know the impact if this was implemented.
Councilmember Milson indicated she would not approve a change until the
neighbors were informed and had the opportunity to respond. Kathleen Browne,
owner of the parcel located on the corner of East Citrus Avenue and La Salle
Street, submitted a letter dated April 13, 1993, requesting the proposed land use
designation for her parcel be revised to reflect a Medium Density Residential,
Neighborhood Commercial, or Office land use designation. Also speaking from
the audience was Bob Roberts.
The City Council meeting adjourned at 1.1:00 A.M. Next regular meeting, April
20, 1993, at 3:00 P.M.
