to the north are developed as single family residential properties. The adjacent properties to
the east are occupied with single family homes. The properties to the south are also
occupied by single family residences including three large unplatted parcels. The proposed
development as multifamily residential is similar to the uses in the surrounding area.
INTENDED USE / DEVELOPMENT OF THE PROPERTY
The proposed use of the undeveloped property is for a multifamily residential development
with City sewer and water services.

The proposed development may be platted as townhouse lots, therefore the lot size will not
meet the required size. However, the overall density of residential units will not exceed what
is allowed in the R-4 Zoning District.
