RE: UDC Text Amendment
Zoning Districts Section 11-2A-7
Dear Mr. Hood:
Attached for your review and favorable consideration is the UDC Text Amendment Application for the change
of setback requirements for the R-15 Zone.
I would like to request that the following UDC Text Amendment be added to our current UDC Text
Amendment for the renaming of zoning codes that is currently scheduled to be heard on September 6th. If
re -notification is required, we are willing to defer the P&Z Hearing for a few weeks to accomplish this
addition.
Per our previous meeting and in an effort to provide increased flexibility in housing types as well as to meet
market demand we are requesting the following text amendments to the Medium High Density Residential
(R-15) Zone. For R-15 residential neighborhoods that utilize private streets the setback would allow for a 0'-3'
interior and rear yard distance. This would allow the builder the ability to utilize a zero -lot line attached
product or a 3' building setback product. The current code calls for a 12' rear setback for all residential units,
but not all residential products have a functional "back yard" area; therefore, there is no need for a 12' rear
yard setback. This will require a plat note that states any area on a lot line, that is not covered by a building
structure, to be a blanket utility and storm drainage easement. All fire and building codes would still be
required to be met. Please refer to the attached exhibit that delineates the prospered changes in red text.
On behalf of the applicant, DevCo Development thanks you for your consideration of this matter, should you
have any questions or require additional information please contact myself or Laren Bailey at 208.336.5355.
Sincerely, L;r�
