EXHIBIT C -Required Findings from Unified Development Code
In consideration of a short plat, the decision-making body shall make the following findings:
A. The plat is in conformance with the Comprehensive Plan and is consistent with the Unified
Development Code;
The Comprehensive Plan designates the future land use of this property as Old Town. The current
zoning district of the proposed plat is O-T (Old Town District). The Comprehensive Plan allows
for a mix of office, retail, residential, entertainment and public uses. The proposed office building
condo units are an allowed use in the O-T zone. Therefore, the proposed short plat complies with
the Comprehensive Plan and the UDC.
B. Public services are available or can be made available and are adequate to accommodate
the proposed development;
Staff finds that public services are adequate to serve the site as evident by the issuance of the
CZC and building permit.
C. The plat is in conformance with scheduled public improvements in accord with the City's
capital improvements program;
Staff finds that the development will not require the expenditure of capital improvement funds.
All required utilities are being provided with the development of the property at the developer's
expense.
D. There is public financial capability of supporting services for the proposed development;
Staff finds that the development will not require major expenditures for providing supporting
services. The developer and/or future unit owners will finance the extension of sewer, water,
utilities and pressurized irrigation to serve the project. The primary public costs to serve the
future tenants will be fire and police services.
E. The development will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or general welfare; and
Staff does not believe that any additional traffic or noise will be generated with the approval of
this plat; the approval for the subject buildings was previously granted. This subdivision will not
be detrimental to the general welfare of the public in the surrounding area. Staff finds that the
subject subdivision will not involve uses that will create nuisances that would be detrimental to
the public health, safety or general welfare.
F. The development preserves significant natural, scenic or historic features.
Staff is not aware of any significant natural, scenic or historic features associated with the
development of this site.
