City Council Agenda Statement
Meeting Date: February 27, 2023
To: City Council
Through: Janette Bower, City Manager
From: Jason Bickling, Community Development Director
Agenda Item: Ordinance 2023-004: Approving the Land Use Amendment to Rezone
Proposed Gateway Subdivision, Hilltop Addition Lots 32-48, Block 6 & Lots
31-35, Block 4, from a Single-Family Residential (R1) Zoning District to Two-
Family Residential (R2) Zoning District; and to Rezone Proposed Lots 17-30,
Block 4 from a Single-Family Residential (R1) Zoning District to Multi-Family
Residential (R3) Zoning District
Background and justification:
Hilltop Properties LLC has submitted an application to rezone various lots in the proposed Gateway
Subdivision, Hilltop Addition from Single-Family Residential to Two-Family Residential and Multi-
Family Residential.
The initiation for a land use amendment to rezone parts of the Gateway Subdivision, Hilltop
Addition is by the petition of the majority of the property owners in the area to be amended. The
total area to be amended exceeds the required one acre as specified in Seward City code
15.01.035(b)(3).
Lots 17-30, Block 4 will be rezoned from Single-Family Residential (R1) to Multi-Family Residential
(R3), maintaining continuity from the Multi-Family Residential (R3) zoning district directly adjacent
to the south. Lots 31-35, Block 4 and Lots 32-48, Block 6 (across the street from Lots 31-35, Block
4)will be rezoned from Single-Family Residential (R1)to Two-Family Residential (R2)to provide an
appropriate gradual transition from a higher density zoning district, R3, to a lower density zoning
district, R1, to the north and west.
Townhouses and other multi-family dwellings would be allowed to be built in an R3 zoning district
with an approved Conditional Use Permit. Duplexes would be allowed outright in an R2 and R3
zoning district with a minimum lot size of 6,000 square feet.
The public notification process was complied with and the appropriate public hearing as required by
Seward City Code § 15.01.040.
On January 10, 2023,the Seward Planning and Zoning Commission approved Resolution 2023-002,
recommending the City Council approve the Land Use Amendment to rezone the Gateway
Subdivision, Hilltop Addition as proposed.
