Agency/Special Magistrate for a Small-Scale Comprehensive Plan Amendment to change the Future Land Use Map designation from Rural Residential (County) to High Density Residential (City) for parcel G04-013 on 2.94 acres MOL. Based on the most recent analysis of utility capacity, staff was unable to verify adequate wastewater treatment plant capacity for new applications which would result in an increase in density or intensity. The subject property anticipated project buildout in 2026, adding an estimated 44 ERUs of potable water and sanitary sewer.

Mike Rankin of LPG was present on behalf of the project and addressed the Special Magistrate. Rankin concurred with city staff findings and confirmed the project density. There were no public comments. Special Magistrate Holt noted that this application was the first to come before her where staff had informed there was a wastewater capacity issue. Rankin stated he had advised the applicant of the capacity issue, and the applicant was willing to move forward with the understanding that the issues could be addressed at a later date. He noted that the attorney representing the developer was with him in attendance as well. McGregor Love of Lowndes Law addressed the Special Magistrate and advised he had discussed the capacity issues with the developer. He stated the subject property had been annexed into the city at the end of 2023 and was not assigned a future land use designation or zoning district for the city at that time. He further stated that the developer understood that when it came time to develop the property, if the wastewater capacity issue had not yet been addressed, they would have to wait until there was sufficient capacity to begin building.
