Now item number six.

Zone map amendment.

Staff contact with Ben Lazy.

And staff recommends planning is on the board to recommend approval with findings and condition.

Good evening, members of the board.

Ben Isaacs, municipal planner with the city of Rio Rancho.

The item before you is a zone map amendment request to amend the zoning classification of a property to include multifamily townhomes as a permissive land use.

The item was previously heard by the planning and zoning board on October 28th, but the board voted to postpone it to the present date.

The applicant Brian Mosley, through his agent Coldwell Banker Legacy, is requesting approval of a zone map amendment for the property legally described as Plaza Rio lot B.

The property consists of approximately 1.51 acres and is zoned SU, special use for limited retail commercial in accordance with ordinance 32, enactment 0731.

The subject property is located at the corner of Gulf Course Road and Gay Circle and is in close proximity to Southern Boulevard.

It abuts commercial and low density residential land uses.

The case was previously postponed by the board to the applicant due to the applicant's absence at the last hearing.

Staff had reached out to the applicant to notify them of this postponement.

The current zoning ordinance lists several permissive retail commercial land uses.

Adding townhomes to the list of existing permissive uses is preferable to rezoning the lot to a high density residential zoning district as it preserves the existing uses and controls the kind of high density residential that could develop in case the applicant's uh project does not materialize.

The applicant proposes that the subject property would be suitable for the proposed town home use due to its location near arterial roads and that it would create a buffer between the abutting low density residential and commercial land uses.

Staff are also proposing some amendments, namely that the ordinance allow for buildings up to 32 feet or two stories tall.

This is in line with the maximum building height in the adjacent R1 zone neighborhood.

For the applicant's informal site development plan, staff also propose a maximum unit density of 12 units per acre.

Finally, staff are proposing updating language in the ordinance about the site plan requirement and parking standards so that they mirror the current edition of the city code.

Staff recommend that the board recommends approval to the governing body for the applicant's request to amend the zoning classification of the subject property as per the specified findings of fact.

I will stand if there are any questions.

Okay.

Is the applicant present?

Is the applicant present?

Okay, is there anyone present who wish to speak for or against item number six?

Anyone present?

Okay.

Can I get a motion to approve item number six?

Move to approve item six is presented.

Can I get a second?

Second.

And a discussion from the board.

And in discussion from the board.

So how do we deal with this or move this forward?

I mean call the roll before I do that.

So uh Mr.

Chair, um the board has the option if you wanted to to postpone one more time, but you would have to make a decision at the next meeting.

Um and then if there is any questions that the board has, um staff can try to answer them depending on um what we've received in our applicant uh application packet.

We may be able to answer questions.

Um and then it's up to you on what you read in the agenda briefing memorandum on how you decide to vote.

Okay, thank you.

Call to roll.

Commissioner Hardesty.

No, Chairman Richardson, no.

Commissioner Rodilcovich?

No.

Vice Chair Gabbledon?

No.

Commissioner Hankins?

No.

Commissioner Coffer.

Motion fail.

Okay, moving on to item number seven, preliminary plot extension.

Staff contact with Michelle Costile and staff recommends approval with fundance and condition.

Good evening, Mr.

Chairman, members of the board, Michelle Castilla, planner with the City of Rio Rancho.

Apologies.

This item is a request for an approval of an extension to the previously approved idealia crossing preliminary plat.

This was initially approved by the planning and zoning board on November 19th, 2024.

This extension is due to current economic conditions, as the applicant has stated in a justification letter, which is provided as an attachment in your agenda briefing memorandums.

The subject property is located off Adalia Road Northeast, bounded by 26th Avenue northeast to the west and iris northeast to the east.

Subdivision will create 70 single family residential lots, three parcels, and three tracks.

It's zoned SU special use for R2 single family residential, and the easement there is zoned C1 res retail commercial district.

It is not being developed as a part of this application, however.

There have been no significant revisions to the subdivision code, zoning code, or infrastructure design standards since the plat's approval date.

That would necessitate a second review and reapproval for the preliminary plat.

Staff recommends the planning and zoning board approve the extension of the of ideal year crossing with findings and conditions.

With that, I'll stand for any questions.

Okay, is the applicant present?

Please come forward, state your name and the address.

Mr.

Chairman, my name is Howard Ballmer, 3205, John Durlain, Rio Rancho, New Mexico.

We're here to ask for the extension.

We do have the property under contract.

So uh hopefully within the next month or two after if we get the extension tonight that we should be able to commence uh um moving dirt.

You should have any questions.

Uh Sheldon Greer is also remotely uh available from community services.

If you have any questions, I'll be happy to answer them.

Okay, thank you for the comments.

Um present wish to speak for against item number seven.

Anyone present who wish to speak for against item number seven.

Anyone virtual who wish to speak for against item number seven.

Uh it is currently zoned to R4 single family residential and is about 14.45 acres.

Uh the plat also includes about 2.45 acres of right-of-way dedicated to the city rancho, and it also contains an emergency access easement uh for emergency services in the northeast corner of the subdivision.

The plan includes five tracks for private common areas uh with blanket landscape and train achievements as well, as you can see on the plat on the right side of your screen.

Uh the proposed subdivision is part of the Bromore Heights Master Plan was originally adopted as Quest L SD Master Plan in 2008 and was amended uh in 2013 and 2017 uh as the Broadmoor Heights Master Plan.

The preliminary plan for the unit for Bromer Heights subdivision was approved by the board October 10, 2023, and was later amended and approved by the board on uh and extended uh by the board on June 25th, 2024, and had a second extension on May 27th of this year.

Uh the proposed subdivision is located on the west side of Amy Road Northeast, it is north of Montezuma Boulevard and about a quarter mile east of uh the intersection of Montezuma and Broadmoor Boulevard.

Okay, moving on to item number 11.

There's a variance.

Staff contact is Tamara Martinez.

Staff recommends approval with findings and conditions.

Good evening, Mr.

Chairman and members of the board.

Tamara Martinez, planner with the city of Rio Rancho.

The item before you is a variance request.

The applicant Mark Martinez, through their agent Samson the Vod, request the approval of a variance to the minimum R1 single family residential rear setback requirement of 15 feet to allow for an existing um secondary structure to encroach three feet into the rear setback at the subject property of 485 Sandstone Drive Northeast, which is legally described as Vista Hills 2 block 8, lot 2.

The property is zoned R1 for ordinance number 84-94, consists of 0.26 acres and is located to the south of the intersection of courts and sandstone drive northeast, both being residential roads.

The surrounding properties are all zoned R1 in all four directions.

The applicant had previously constructed the accessory dwelling unit without a set of city approved plans somewhere between excuse me, sometime between March of 2014 and October of 2015, but no documents were found via the Sandoval County website.

The applicant has submitted building permit number 25-10046 for the existing 750 square foot accessory building.

As constructed, the structure encroaches three feet into the required 15-foot rear setback, resulting in a 12-foot setback from the rear property line, as you can see here on this site plan.

Um there are actually or there are no existing active code cases for this subject property.

The applicant has submitted a justification narrative, which is included as an attachment.

Staff finds that the lot is not particularly narrow, shallow, or steep.

However, because the accessory structure has already been constructed on a permanent foundation.

Staff finds that requiring relocation or demolition and reconstruction would create a practical difficulty and an unnecessary hardship to the applicant.

The requested variance is not for a significant deviation from the setback requirement at only three feet or 20% of the requirement, and is not anticipated to have any adverse effects on the surrounding properties or the community.

Staff recommends approval subject to findings and conditions, and with that I will stand for any questions.

Okay.

Thank you, Tamara.

Is the applicant present?

Please step forward, state your name and your address.

Sam Sandoval, uh agent for Mark Martinez, uh address P.O.

Good evening, Mr.

Ben Isaacs, municipal planner with Rio Rancho.

The item before you includes a subdivision variance and a preliminary plat.

I'll be presenting the two items together, but they will be voted on separately.

Okay.

The applicant, Zuma Ranch LLC, through their agent Isaacson and Arfman is requesting approval of a preliminary plat for phase one of the Zuma Ranch subdivision.

They're also requesting a subdivision variance for this phase of the subdivision.

The subject properties are legally described as Unit 13, Block 37, lots 5 through 27, and are located between Galahad and Guinevere Streets, south of Kaiser Road and a short distance north of Montezuma Boulevard.

The preliminary plat proposes 151 residential lots and nine HOA tracks zoned R5 single family residential.

The preliminary plat comes as the first subdivision of the Zuma Ranch Master Plan area, which was adopted in 2023 under resolution 93 and document 23094.

Here you can see an overview of phase one of the Zuma Ranch subdivision in the proposed lot and road layout.

Access to the subdivision is to be provided from three points from the east via Caracas Drive and Zuma Beach Street off of existing Guinevere Street and then from the south off of existing Galahad Street.

Portions of the existing Galahad Street right of way are to be vacated as shown on the plat.

All proposed lots conform with lot width and acreage standards for the R5 single family residential zoning district the subdivision variance request is to replace the standard five-foot front side and rear public utility easements with 10 foot street-facing public utility easements on all lots.

Staff recommend that the board approve the preliminary plat based on the specified findings of facts and conditions, including that a subdivision variance be required for the length of the cul de sac for Zuma Sky Court and that adjacent property owners waive their rights to the portions of vacated right of way along Galahad Street.

Staff also recommend that the board approve the subdivision variants based on the specified findings of facts and conditions.

Through their applicant Lomas and Catatis Development Court Human Zollers Inc.

are requesting this approval.

This subdivision is part of the Loma San Catatis Master Plan, originally approved in 2004, most recently amended May of this year.

This subdivision is located in the northernmost portion of Loma Catatis Tract 13A1.

And the entirety of this tract is zoned our one single family.

The subdivision shall be accessed via Camino Encantadas, a proposed minor arterial, via Enchanted Hills Boulevard Northeast, also a minor arterial.

This will also be accessed from internally via Olivia Drive Northeast.

And here we can see the plat itself, which will create 27 lots and eight tracts.

Specifically, tract F, which is at the corner of Enchanted Hills and Camino and Catadas, is going to serve as a public pit park, which will be dedicated to the city and maintained by the HOA.

Also, in addition to this, our parks division did have some concerns with this tract given the challenging topography of this area.

As such, a condition of approval is uh provision of a proposed park plan for this tract with elevations, uh detailing park development, ADA compliance and amenities to demonstrate that this tract can be developed as usual, usable park space.

With that, staff recommends approval with findings and conditions, and I will stand for any questions.

Yes, hello again.

Ben Isaacs, municipal planner with the city of Rio Rancho.

The item before you is a zone map amendment request to change the zoning classification of a property from C1 to C2.

The applicant Joe Chambers, through his agent Daniel Gonzalez, is requesting approval of a zone map amendment for the property legally described as a Vista Hills 1A, Block A, lot 1A.

The property consists of approximately 2.08 acres and is zoned C1 retail commercial per ordinance number 91010.

The subject property is located off of Sunt Road Northeast, a major collector, and a butts commercial and low density residential land uses.

As for some background on the property, it houses a business called Catalyst LLC, which describes itself as a marketing agency with a focus on design and production services.

It was the subject of code enforcement violations dating back to January 2025.

These include operating without a business license or occupancy permit, carrying out construction without building permits, engaging in business related activity in violation of the property's permissive uses, and for the presence of an odor and debris on the property.

Before Catalyst LLC, the property was in use as a boys and girls club.

The applicant's stated aim of the request is to enable Catalyst LLC to resume operations by allowing it to obtain the proper licensing and permits.

As justifications for the zone change, the applicant points to the economic opportunities the rezoning would create, as well as the change community conditions of the surrounding area, including the neighboring land uses, such as a self-storage facility and car collision repair shop.

Staff recommend that the board recommends approval to the governing body for the applicant's request to amend the zoning classification of the subject property as per the specified findings of fact and conditions of approval.

I will stand if there are any questions.

Okay, is the applicant present?

Come forth.

Uh I've been on planning and zoning for about seven and a half years.

And I just want to thank Mayor Hall, Councillor Tyler, and the city council for nominating me and then appointing me and reappointing me for three times.

I'm not sure why they would do that, but they did.

Uh I also want to thank Amy and Brian and the rest of your staff.

Uh, and makes it easy to to come here and and uh and make a decision.

Uh the last seven and a half years I've learned more about planning and zoning than I ever wanted to know.

Um it's it's it's uh it's a complex issue and you guys just make it so much simpler for us up here uh to do that.

Also like to thank my fellow board members.

Um I'll miss you guys.

Uh, but uh I'll enjoy my Tuesday evenings.

Um and I probably won't watch it online.

Um but uh it's been an honor and a pleasure for me to serve uh not only as a commissioner but chairman for several years.

Uh and uh like I said, it uh it was a great ride, but it's time to to let somebody else come up here and get all the the pay and uh the benefits uh that we get.

So thank you all.

I'd like to add to uh as well, Commissioner, my ex-commissioner.

Um appreciate the five years, you know, that we've been together for that one.

So uh wish you the best of luck and enjoy a little time that you have at least two hours or three hours in time to go but enjoy every bit of that and wish you the best of luck.
