SUMMARY STATEMENT:
The City of Valdez is requesting to change the zoning on an approximately 6.95-acre portion of the hospital property to Multiple-Family Residential. The official zoning map indicates that the current zoning of this property is Public Lands.
The purpose of the rezone as stated in the application is: “The City of Valdez desires to create more housing options for seniors. Allowing a rezone of this property will facilitate housing development in close proximity to the existing senior center and near medical and other services.”
On April 13, 2022 the Planning and Zoning Commission approved the preliminary plat for Medical Park Subdivision, Senior Addition. The requested rezone is for Lots 2 and 3 of the proposed plat. The plat number will be added to the ordinance after the plat receives final approval by the commission and a plat number is assigned by the state recorder’s office. If approved, the ordinance will become effective once the final plat is recorded.
The Planning and Zoning Commission held a public hearing on this matter on May 11, 2022; and following discussion, approved a recommendation to the city council to approve this rezone.
