What: case Z250026, a request to rezone seven parcels (about 4.5 acres, Mary Martin Road area) from Residential Suburban 20 to Planned Development Residential 4.161, allowing up to 19 single-family, townhouse or duplex units.
Where it stands: the Planning Commission recommended approval 9 to 0 on 2026-10-13.
Next: City Council hearing; a fiscal impact analysis and utility extension agreement were still being completed.

Payton Burgess reported the request was continued from August, when the applicant sought a multifamily zone with up to 80 units. The new request cuts that to at most 19 units.
New commitments since August cover yard minimums, garage setbacks and grading limits; a 5 percent tree coverage commitment was removed. Staff found it consistent with the Mixed Residential Neighborhood place type and 13 of 21 applicable comprehensive plan policies, with three policies to be determined.
Neighborhood meetings were held 2026-03-11 and 2026-07-27; two comments against were posted on the Rezoning Explorer.

A nearby resident accepted the smaller project but did not want to be annexed or to pay for sewer and water; the chair noted the city does not do involuntary annexation.
A commissioner asked about road access for emergency vehicles; the applicant said the road is a city street built to state standards, expected one entrance, and fire and emergency review.

Favorable recommendation (moved by Vice Chair Cameron, seconded by Commissioner Bailey): passed 9 to 0.
