The application, staff report, and related materials are attached for your review. Discussion Pat Ready, Origin Design,137 Main Street, spoke on behalf of the property owners. He stated that the request is to rezone to R-3 and clarified that the owner's desire to build three buildings with two units each, similar to the existing townhomes to the north. He said the goal is to have condos with an HOA where the owners can pool their money to maintain the property. He stated that the R-3 district is in concurrence with the city's Future Land Use Map which shows multi -family. He also noted that utilities are adequate to serve the site and that the request will still need to go through development review. He said that he realizes that not everyone's in favor of this development because it is tough to get onto Asbury Road, but added these units would be a small increase and won't change that. He said that a single driveway will serve several dwellings and that it would be similar to six single-family residences and there will be a review of the traffic as part of the development process. Nine property owners throughout the Harvest View subdivision spoke in opposition to the request. Concerns included increased density, increased traffic - particularly at the Asbury Road and Harvest View intersection, reduced on -street parking availability, a lack of stormwater management, inadequate emergency access and fire protection, and snow removal management. Staff detailed the staff report noting the differences between the R-1 and R-3 zoning district and what would be permitted. Staff described the history of the parcel, the Service People Integrity Responsibility Innovation Teamwork The Honorable Mayor and City Council Members Page 2 surrounding zoning and development, and property topography. Staff noted that the rezoning would be an expansion of the existing R-3 zone to the north and the rezoning is supported by the Comprehensive Plan and that the area is shown as Multi -Family in the Future Land Use Map. The Commission discussed the proposal noting that traffic does not appear to be an issue since the lot size would allow for a number of houses at the property already. Commissioner Lohrmann and Zuccaro noted that rezoning to R-3 is not appropriate. Commissioners Mulligan, Norton, and Russell noted they would be supportive of the request if the number of units were capped. There were six letters of opposition with one property falling within the 200-foot notification area. Recommendation By a vote of 3-2, the Zoning Advisory Commission recommends that the City Council approve the request with the following condition: That the property is limited to six (6) total dwelling units regardless of future subdivision(s). A simple majority vote is needed for the City Council to approve the request.

Applicant: Pat Ready, Origin Design Description: To rezone property from R-1 Single -Family Residential to R-3 Moderate Density Multi -Family Residential. Proposed Land Use: Residential Existing Land Use: Vacant Adjacent Land Use: North — Residential East — Residential South — Residential West — Residential Former Zoning: Prior to 1975 — SF Single Family 1975 — AG Agriculture 1985 — AG Agriculture Total Area: 1.6 acres / 70,268 sq. ft. Proposed Zoning: R-3 Existing Zoning: R-1 Adjacent Zoning: North — R-3 East — PR South — R-1 West — R-1 Property History: The subject property is comprised of a single vacant lot. The property was annexed into the city between 1960-65. The property was subdivided as part of Harvest View Estates Sixth Addition in 2011 and was modified later that same year to accommodate an adjacent 6-unit townhome located to the north of the site. The north 65 feet of the property is zoned as R-3 and the remainder of the site is zoned as R-1. Physical Characteristics: The subject property is approximately 1.6 acres (70,268 sq. ft) in area. The lot has frontage along the cul-de-sac at the terminus of Millstone Drive. The property is primarily flat with what acts as a berm on the south property line before the grade drops off more substantially to the south. The surrounding development consists of residential uses on all sides. Concurrence with Comprehensive Plan: The Comprehensive Plan encourages a mix of housing affordable for all segments of Dubuque's population throughout the community, including those who may be saving for their first home. The City's Future Land Use Map identifies the subject property as multi -family. Impact of Request on: Rezoning Staff Report: Millstone Drive (PIN 1016329042) Page 2 Utilities: Existing utilities are adequate to serve the subject property. Traffic Patterns/Counts: There are no recent traffic counts for the internal streets in the subdivision. The R-3 zoning district permits up to six units on a single lot. The City's Engineering staff note that 7 average daily trips (ADT) per unit is the standard for a mid- level multifamily development. The city has not received a plan from the applicants. Once submitted, that plan will go through development review with site development standards including stormwater detention, site access, required parking, parking lot layout, emergency access, and fire safety limiting the number of units that could be created on the property. Regarding the development's impact on the intersection of Asbury Road and Harvest View Drive, the Iowa Department of Transportation (I DOT) categorizes Asbury Road as a Minor Arterial and provides traffic count information for the road. The IDOT data indicates an average daily traffic count of 12,500 trips along this section of Asbury Road (2021). Development at the subject property would trigger review of the traffic patterns and the projected number of trips added to the intersection noted above. Given the limitations of the site, the site design requirements, and limitations of the R-3 zoning district, the proposed rezoning is not anticipated to result in substantial traffic increases. Public Services: Existing public services are adequate to serve the subject property regardless of how it may be utilized or redeveloped. Environment: Any development on the site would be subject to review by the city's Development Review Team (DIRT) to ensure the work is compliant with city codes and to ensure any potential effects on the environment would be mitigated through appropriate site development. Therefore, the proposed rezoning is not anticipated to have an any adverse impacts on the environment. Adjacent Properties: The subject property is in a mixed residential neighborhood that includes two-, three-, and six -unit town homes, single-family residences, and an assisted living facility. The topography of the property would reduce any potential visual impact on the neighbors to the south as there is a berm and then a hill which reduces visibility looking north. Additionally, any development of the site would require review by the DIRT and any structure would need to meet all site design standards and the R-3 bulk regulations including front, rear, and side yard setbacks. Therefore, the proposed rezoning is not anticipated to negatively affect adjacent properties. CIP Investments: None proposed. Staff Analysis: The applicant proposes to rezone a 1.6-acre property located at the terminus of Millstone Drive (PIN 1016329042) from R-1 Single -Family Residential to R-3 Moderate Density Multi -Family Residential. The subject property is comprised of a single vacant lot and was annexed into the city between 1960-65.

The north 65 feet of the property is zoned as R-3 and the remainder of the site is zoned as R-1. The lot has frontage along the cul-de-sac at the terminus of Millstone Drive. The property is primarily flat with what acts as a berm on the south property line before the grade drops off more substantially (-15') to the south. The surrounding development consists of residential uses on all sides. Any development on the site would be subject to review by the city's Development Review Team (DRT) to ensure the work is compliant with city codes and to ensure any potential effects on the environment would be mitigated through appropriate site development.

Therefore, the proposed rezoning is not anticipated to negatively affect adjacent properties. The R-1 zoning district allows for eight (8) Principal Permitted Uses and the proposed R-3 zoning district allows for twelve (12) Principal Permitted Uses. The chart below provides a side -by -side summary of the Principal Permitted Uses in both zoning districts. The uses highlighted in yellow are permitted in each zoning district.

This message was sent from outside your organization. Never give your login information and password over email! My name is Patricia Judge, at 2364 Harvest View Drive. I write to object to this change of rezoning. Presently approximately 93 residences on Millstone, Hilton Springs and Wheatland exit and enter through Harvest View Drive. Most of these have 2 cars, which could be 180 x 2 trips per day. It is often difficult to get out of my driveway, because of the traffic. It is also unbelievable how fast they can get going in such a short stretch. The traffic on Asbury and the number of cars entering Harvest View often makes it difficult to exit onto Asbury. Again, I am strongly opposed to this zoning change.

A multifamily structure is going to further burden the traffic flow that is already overloaded. It is extremely difficult to get onto Asbury Rd from our neighborhood at most any time of the day and next to impossible at peak traffic times. Traffic backs up on Harvest View trying to get out and on Asbury when traveling east and turning left onto Harvest View. It is not an uncommon occurrence to wait as long as 8-10 minutes to enter Asbury Rd from Harvest View during peak traffic.

This message was sent from outside your organization. Never give your login information and password over email! My name is Lorna Costello and I live at 2482 Millstone Drive. I want to make a comment prior to the next zoning advisory public hearing on June 5, 2024. There is a proposed zoning change for a vacant lot on Millstone Drive. The proposal would change zoning from R-1 single-family housing to R-3 multi -family housing. I have looked at the plat map for my neighborhood and my street. The vacant lot has only 1.6 acres available. I oppose adding more multi -family housing to a spot already too densely populated and congested with multi -family housing. I would like the vacant lot to become green space for the families in this neighborhood. The multi -family housing surrounding this empty lot is already saturated and over -developed. The housing next to the lot has four 2-story townhouses with six units each, a 1-story building with six units, a triplex, and three duplexes. Many of these are occupied by families with children. The other place directly next to this vacant lot is a 185 unit 3-story senior living building called Eagle Pointe Place. It has assisted and independent living. Some of the seniors don't travel and need to live in a nice area with a green space. The housing at the top end of Millstone Drive is already too dense. A green space would be of great benefit for all ages living in this area.

Caution! This message was sent from outside your organization. Never give your login information and password over email! Dear Advisory Commission Members, Thank you in advance for your time in this matter. Recently I was advised that the property owner in the north most section on Millstone Drive of the Harvest View subdivision is requesting a zoning change from R-1 to R-3. My immediate thought was, "well here we go again" You see a few years ago, the owner of this property had requested the same change. The property owners of Harvest View then banded together to oppose this change because it would have made the area too densely populated. Without the revised zoning the developer and contractors filled most of the area with condos, as it is today. Now the new property owner/developer wants to fill the remaining space with apartment houses. My first question is, what happened to the "green space and park" that this space was to be used for? But beyond that, this apartment house concept will not only increase people density, but also the automobile density that currently fills Milestone with parked vehicles to the point there is only one lane traffic available. The City garbage truck currently struggles to get through this area as well as the snowplow. As it is currently Millstone to Harvest View to Asbury Road at "rush hour" is packed with cars. With the current development property available, in my opinion only a duplex or two is suitable so not to increase the residential/automobile problem that area already is facing. We appreciate your vote against this zoning change.

This message was sent from outside your organization. Never give your login information and password over email! Allow sender I Block sender I am writing to express my opposition to the Millstone Dr rezoning to R3. We live at 2632 Millstone dr and the lot is directly between us and the Eagle Point Home. During the buying process we were told by the realtor (Bucheit )selling the house that no residence would ever go there and if anything it would be a park. Another neighbor I spoke with also was told the same thing by the developer. This street is also very crowded with lack of off street parking with some of these townhouses having 3 cars and some don't use the garage for their vehicles therefore having one car in the driveway and 2 in the street. We have a difficult time backing out of our driveway with all the cars parked directly opposite our driveway. This would only add to more congestion. Thanks for considering our request to keep it R 1 or possibly a park.
