Jack Avant, applicant, spoke in favor of the application. Staff presented the staff recommendation: The applicant requests rezoning of five acres from Ag to RMH, The property is abutted on the south by existing mobile homes and on the east by commercially zoned property. On the west is a church separated from the subject tract by an existing street, 109th East Avenue, The plan map indicates low intensity residential use for this area, Due to the physical factors surrounding this property (i.e., exist- ing commercial and mobile home zoning on two sides, a church on the west and an arterial street and commercial development to the north), traditional low intensity single-family development is not the most appropriate type of development for this "landlocked" parcel. There is no stepdown in intensity from the medium intensity commercial activity center to the east and this parcel, Staff would recommend that the plan be amended to accommodate medium intensity office or residential land use for this five acre parcel. Although the plan text lists RMH zoning as a normally high intensity use due to the high density conditions of most mobile home parks, the size of this parcel would limit the number of units per acre to approximately 10, as in duplex zoning. For this reason, staff can support the request to rezone the parcel to RMH. Special Meeting Owasso Planning Commission Minutes July 31, 1.980 Page 2 General discussion followed. E.
