SUBJECT: Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment Application
File # 18-00140 Bryce Dorian
APPLICANT: Bryce Dorion
PROPERTY OWNER: Dean R. Grover Family Bypass Trust
Rexburg
PURPOSE: Requesting to amend the Comprehensive Plan Map - to change property
from Commercial to Low-Moderate Density Residential for the specified
property.
PARCEL SIZE: Approximately 2.9 acres
PROPERTY ID: RPRXBCA0176392
PROPERTY LOCATION: 407 West 1st North
Rexburg, ID 83440
AUTHORITY § 6.13c “Council may adopt or reject an amendment to the Comprehensive
Plan.”
REQUEST
Applicant is requesting a land use map designation change from Commercial to Low-Moderate Density
Residential for the specified property.
RECOMMENDATION
The parcels being considered for a comp plan change and finally a zone change are adjacent to a Medium
Density Residential Zone to the east. The property directly adjacent to the west is the City of Rexburg Water
tank property and has a commercial zoning. Therefore, the commercial viability may be lessened due to the
separation from the commercial properties on the west of the water tank property. Staff feels that Medium
Density Residential is also a good use for this area. There are currently infrastructure considerations that will
limit permits in this area. The applicant has been advised of these limitations and understands that permits will
be given on a “first come” basis. In time the infrastructure limitations will be corrected.
Staff recommends that this Comprehensive Map change be considered. The Planning and Zoning Commission
should take testimony in the public hearing to determine if this change to the comprehensive plan map will be in
the best interest of the community and make recommendation to the City Council.
