Adjustment of Zoning
Boundary Line
Assistant Planner Noel Griemsmann
reported that Kenton Hawkes'property,located on Winchester Road,is
currently zoned GR (General Rural)on the north 70 feet of the property and
the remainder is zoned CR-5 (Multiple Family Residence Zone).The request is
to adjust the CR-5 boundary northward 70 feet to provide a unified zoning
classification for Parcel Number 101-19-012C.
The 1977 Pinal County Zoning Map illustrates a CR-5 area 660 feet north of
East Junction and 230 feet south of East Scenic Street.The City of Apache
Junction's oldest map is unclear as to the exact boundary line location.The
subject site was split after 1996.Current maps (2004)indicate the site is
now in three separate -pieces.
The request tonight is for the Board to authorize the original CR-5 zoning
that was in -place to begin with by allowing that boundary to be adjusted up to
the northern boundary of the subject parcel.Staff recommends approval of
this boundary adjustment.
Chairwoman Gardner 'asked if the applicant
or representative mould like to address the Board on. this

was unknown.Can you explain how that can happen?
