AGENDA MEMORANDUM
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of Town Council

Title: Ordinance Amending the Town’s Zone District Map by Rezoning the Property Located at 249 S. Gilbert Street from I-1 Light Industrial and R-1 Single-Family Residence to I-1 Light Industrial (2nd Reading)
Executive Summary
The Town has initiated a rezoning of the property located at 249 South Gilbert Street. The property is currently split zoned with zonings of I-1 Light Industrial and R-1 Single Family Residential. The proposal would rezone the property in its entirety to I-1. A majority of the R-1 portion being rezoned is located within the floodplain and potential Preble’s Meadow Jumping Mouse habitat. On May 11, Planning Commission recommended approval to Town Council by a vote of 4-0. Town Council approved the ordinance on first reading by a vote of 6-0 on May 16, 2017.
The property is within the boundaries of the Town of Castle Rock and is addressed as 249 South Gilbert Street. The property is ±9.8 acres in size. The Town is concurrently working on the purchase of the trail running along the west side of the property. Taking out the land for the trail, the size of property being rezoned is ±8.3 acres. The history of the property and its zoning is as following;
• The property was annexed in 1968 as part of a larger parcel
• The parcel was not zoned at the time of annexation, therefore the zoning of the property defaulted to R-1
• In 1986, by way of Ordinance No. 86-13, an official zoning map was adopted. Through this adoption a 250’ strip on the east side of the property along the Gilbert Street frontage was zoned I-1 to recognize potential build out of Gilbert Street frontage consistent with other zoning in the corridor. The remaining portion of the property remained R-1
Budget Impact
The proposed Zoning application will not have any impact on the budget.
Staff Recommendation
Staff finds that the proposed zoning district classification meets the zoning approval criteria outlined in Section 17.02060 of the Town’s Municipal Code.
Proposed Motion
I move to approve the Ordinance as introduced by title, second and final reading.
