Only one project is on the agenda for the Buckeye Planning and Zoning Commission’s Tuesday night meeting.
The meeting, set to start at 6 p.m. at City Hall, 530 E. Monroe Ave., will include a rezoning request for a small segment of the Vista Bonita planned community.
There is a 2-acre property that is a small county island that has had the Vista Bonita development designed around it. Kai Enterprises wants to rezone it to a more dense single-family designation while simultaneously going through the annexation process with Buckeye.
“To facilitate the development of the property as part of the larger Vista Bonita development project, SF-6 zoning is requested,” a staff report states. “This will help create a more harmonious community overall.”
The property has an existing farm residence of a larger, surrounding agricultural property located on it. The rezone and annexation would incorporate five lots into the community, all within the city of Buckeye.
The gross density of Vista Bonita is 2.3 duplex units per acre.
The property would meet all of Buckeye’s zoning requirements, with the exception of a variance for 55-foot minimum lot widths, rather than 50. The 2 acres are east of the southeast corner of Apache and Broadway roads, near Marionneaux Elementary School.
The original Vista Bonita preliminary plat was approved by the city of Buckeye’s Planning and Development Board in November 2005.
