Project Description
The applicant is requesting to change the zoning of a portion of a parcel from Low Density
Residential 1 (LDR1) to Low Density Residential 2 (LDR2). The parcel is located at approximately
301 S 12th and is located between Highway 20 and 12th West, and Widdison Subdivision and
Willowbrook Estates. The rezone request applies to approximately 6.13 acres of the parcel total
of 13.77 acres. The parcel was recently split and is currently farmed.
The adjacent parcels to the north and southeast are zoned as Rural Residential 2 (RR2), the area
to the southwest is zoned as Rural Residential 1 (RR1), and the area to the west is zoned as Low
Density Residential 1 (LDR1). The other portion of the property to the west is already zoned as
Low Density Residential 2 (LDR2). The property directly across Highway 20 is zoned as Medium
Density Residential 1 (MDR1). There is additional MDR1 zoning to the south (The Meadows
Townhomes), and Low Density Residential 3 (LDR3) zoning to the west (Summerfield). (See
attached current zoning map)
The current zoning of Low Density Residential 1 (LDR1) allows for a maximum density of 4 units
per acre, consisting of detached single-family homes. Not considering parking, infrastructure, or
permissible lot coverage requirements, the maximum density for 6.13 acres would be 24 units.
The current zoning of Low Density Residential 2 (LDR2) allows for a maximum density of 6 units
per acre, consisting of detached single-family homes, duplexes, or twin homes. Not considering
(208) 359-3020
35 North 1st East
Rexburg, ID 83440
Rexburg.org | Engage.Rexburg.org
parking, infrastructure, or permissible lot coverage requirements, the maximum density for 7.67
acres would be 46 units. Not considering parking, infrastructure, or permissible lot coverage
requirements, a maximum of 70 units would be allowed on this property.
The proposed zoning of Low Density Residential 2 (LDR2) allows for a maximum density of 6
units per acre, consisting of detached single-family homes, duplexes, or twin homes. Not
considering parking, infrastructure, or permissible lot coverage requirements, the maximum
density for 6.13 acres would be 36 units. The current zoning of Low Density Residential 2 (LDR2)
allows for a maximum density of 6 units per acre, consisting of detached single-family homes,
duplexes, or twin homes. Not considering parking, infrastructure, or permissible lot coverage
requirements, the maximum density for 7.67 acres would be 46 units. Not considering parking,
infrastructure, or permissible lot coverage requirements, a maximum of 82 units would be
allowed on the entire property.
Not considering parking, infrastructure, or permissible lot coverage requirements, the proposed
zoning would increase the maximum density by 12 units.
The current Comprehensive Plan designation of Low Residential supports the Low Density
Residential 2 (LDR2) zone request.
