SUBJECT:
A Public Hearing for the Final Plat for the Rolling Hills P.U.D. (Planned Unit Development), in the City of Gillette, Wyoming, by Changing the Zoning Classification from R-4, Multi-Family Residential District, to P.U.D., Planned Unit Development Zoning District.
BACKGROUND:
The applicants are seeking approval of an Ordinance creating a Planned Unit Development Zoning District and a Final Plat to create four (4) lots for ownership purposes.      

Along with the PUD Final Plat, there is a concurrent Zoning Ordinance Map Amendment to the Zoning Ordinance, the property is currently zoned R-4, Multi-Family Residential District. Land designated as PUD always has a Zoning Map Amendment approval in order to create the land area on the Zoning Map for a Planned Unit Development.  

There are requirements in the Zoning Ordinance in order to approve a rezoning request. Section 12 of the Zoning Ordinance indicates that an amendment to the Zoning Map shall not take place unless at least one (1) of two (2) criteria exists.  

The criteria are:                                                                                                  

a. The Zoning Map may be amended when there is a need to correct an obvious error. In this case there was no obvious error in the zoning designation. The owners have indicated that action taken by a previous owner has created problems which can be appropriately addressed through a Planned Unit Development.  

b. The Zoning Map may be amended to recognize changing conditions within the City. This request does recognize changing conditions. A previous owner created an Agreement which is causing problems for the existing owners who want to solve the parking maintenance and ownership concerns through the application of a Planned Unit Development.
