7. Rose Ridge
Bart Winkler, Winkler Land Co., LLC requested Council approval of a comprehensive plan
amendment and rezoning of property located east of Dodd Boulevard and immediately
north of King Park. The proposed amendment and rezoning would allow the
construction of a two-story medical office building and a day care center on the 11.56-
acre site. Mr. Winkler addressed issues that had been raised at the Planning Commission
meeting related to sewer capacity, traffic and lighting. He stated the proposed rezoning
to O-R, Office/Residential Transition, would provide a desirable buffer between the King
Park athletic complex and the existing residential neighborhood.
Dan Licht, The Planning Company, presented the planning report for the proposed
development. He stated the subject site is guided by the 2030 Land Use Plan for low to
medium density residential uses. The Planning Commission and City staff do not support
the proposed amendment to Office/Residential Transition, which would create an
isolated area of office uses more intense and not compatible with the character of the
existing single-family dwellings in the area. He provided for the Council’s consideration
findings of fact and decision for denial of the request along with findings of fact and
decision for approval.
Mayor Anderson invited comments from the audience. Several residents spoke against
the proposed comprehensive plan amendment and rezoning.
Council Member Hellier stated he feels this property is challenging to develop given the
existing surrounding uses. He expressed some reservation with the requested
Office/Residential Transition zoning given the variety of permitted uses within that
zoning district.
Council Member Davis noted the benefits of the Office/Residential Transition zoning
district. He stated he feels the transition zoning makes sense, given the current
surrounding uses. In response to concerns by residents regarding lighting, he pointed
out that the zoning ordinance has strict standards related to lighting.

Mayor Anderson pointed out that the use of this property as proposed by the developer
can be accommodated by existing public services, and traffic generated by the proposed
use is within the capabilities of the streets serving the property. He stated he supports
the proposed transition zoning.
Council Member LaBeau spoke in support of the developer’s initial request to include
row townhouse dwelling units on this site, as she feels there is a demand for this type of
housing.
Hellier moved to adopt findings of fact for denial of the Comprehensive Plan amendment
to guide property for Office/Residential Transition and the zoning map amendment to
zone the property Office/Residential transition District. The motion was not seconded.
Motion was made by LaBeau, seconded by Davis, to adopt findings of fact, Resolution No.
18-94 approving an amendment to the comprehensive plan to re-guide property from
Low/Medium Density Residential to Office/Residential Transition District, and Ordinance
No. 1001 rezoning property from RST-2 to O-R.
Roll call was taken on the motion. Ayes – Davis, Anderson, Wheeler, LaBeau
Nay - Hellier

Addition preliminary plat, easement vacation, Comprehensive Plan amendment and

Kenwood Trail at Jaguar Path. This development represents the third and final phase of
the Kenwood Hills preliminary plat.
Mr. Licht presented the planning report for Kenwood Hills 3rd Addition, which includes an
amendment to the Comprehensive Plan to re-guide the property from High Density
Residential and Restricted Development to Low/Medium Density Residential. The
