ZONING PUBLIC HEARING
Staff reviewed the case history and the staff evaluation:
The applicant requests rezoning of a 30 acre tract from AG
to RMH for the purpose of establishing a mobile home park. The
property is located south of 126th Street North and 1/4 mile
east of Garnett Road. The property is part of a 40 acre vacant
parcel. There is currently one mobile home located on it occupi-
ed by the applicant. To the north is located an existing mobile
home park. Other properties surrounding the tract are predomi-
nantly vacant parcels with scattered single family homes and
mobile homes. There is a large-lot single family subdivision
located approximately 300 feet south of the subject tract,
The Comprehensive Plan indicates the subject tract and pro-
perties to the west, east and south as low intensity rural
residential and agricultural use. There is an area of develop-
ment sensitive land land that runs through the subject tract.
The Comprehensive Plan lists mobile home use as a high intensity
use. Both Garnett and 126th Street North are arterial streets
but are currently two laned asphalt streets. The property would
be served by Washington County Rural Water District No. 3 and by
private sewage facilities, Commissioners should consider the
positive and negative effects a 30 acre mobile home park would
have on surrounding properties, how the application relates to
the Comprehensive Plan and whether the development could be
adequately served by public utilities,
