STAFF ANALYSIS

The request is a Zone Change from M-1 Industrial District to R-A Residential District for the 37.47-acre property located at 10900 Shaffer Road. The property is currently developed with a single-family dwelling and accessory buildings. The Township acquired the property in 2018 with the plan to market it as an extension of the Westwinds Industrial Park, which is located approximately 1,300 feet to the east. However, the Township has decided to market this property for residential uses. Adjacent land uses include Metropark to the south and east and Nature Conservancy Land to the north and west.

Prior to February 2019, this parcel was Zoned R-A Residential and is still currently developed with a single-family dwelling and accessory buildings. R-A Zoned property is present 1,300 feet to the north and east. A zone change will permit prospective buyers the ability to secure financing for single-family construction or rehab on existing structures located on this property. This site is currently not served by public water or sewer, with the closest infrastructure being located in the Westwinds Industrial Park to the east. A portion of the conservancy land surrounding the subject property is currently Zoned M-1 Industrial. However, these parcels are undeveloped and owned by the Nature Conservancy and the Metroparks and are not predicted to develop in the future with exception of public uses.

Furthermore, the 1999 Spencer Township Land Use Plan recommends this area for Low

Density Residential/Conservation uses. R-A Residential Zoning is consistent with the Low Density Residential future land use recommendations of this site. This site is also located in one of the more rural parts of Spencer Township with conservancy land located on all sides of the subject property. As a result, staff found that residential zoning was more appropriate for this area given the rural character of the area and the presence of other R-A Zoned land in the immediate area.

Staff recommends approval of this Zone Change from M-1 Industrial District to R-A Residential District for the 37.47-acre property located at 10900 Shaffer Road. This recommendation is based on the property’s location in conjunction to R-A Residential District in the immediate area. This site is also located in a rural portion of the Township that lacks public water and sewer to the site. The site is developed with a single-family dwelling and accessory buildings and the 1999 Spencer Township Land Use Plan recommending this area for Low Density Residential/Conservation, all of which are anticipated to have minimal adverse impacts on surrounding properties. STAFF RECOMMENDATION

Staff recommends that the Lucas County Planning Commission recommend approval of Z30-C131, a Zone Change request from M-1 Industrial to R-A Residential for property located at 10900 Shaffer Road, to the Spencer Township Zoning Commission and Trustees for the following five (5) reasons:

REF: Z30-C131. . . November 17, 2021

1 - 3

1. The proposed Zone Change is compatible with the rural nature of this portion of Spencer Township, surrounding zoning and land uses.

2. This site is located in a portion of the Township that lacks public water and sewer. 3. The site is developed with a single-family dwelling and accessory buildings. 4. The 1999 Spencer Township Land Use Plan recommending this area for Low Density

Residential/Conservation; and 5. The proposed Zone Change is anticipated to have minimal adverse impacts on

surrounding properties.
