Planning commission approves rezoning for 11321 Elm Creek Road, sends to council
Summary
The Dayton Planning Commission voted 5–0 to rezone 11321 Elm Creek Road from A‑1 Agriculture to R‑1 Single‑Family, concluding the property better matches neighborhood lot sizes and impervious‑surface expectations; the decision advances to City Council on Sept. 24.
The Dayton Planning Commission voted unanimously to recommend rezoning 11321 Elm Creek Road from A‑1 Agriculture to R‑1 Single‑Family at its Sept. 5 meeting.
Staff told the commission the applicant plans to demolish the existing dwelling and build a new single‑family home. Under the A‑1 rules the lot’s maximum impervious surface is about 10 percent; the proposed new house would exceed that and better match the R‑1 lot standards, staff said. The planner recommended approval, and the commission agreed.
Commissioners asked about utilities. Staff said city water will be provided via an easement from an adjacent property; the new home is expected to rely on private septic onsite rather than a city sewer connection. A staff memo noted a nearby zoning‑map anomaly on an adjacent cul‑de‑sac that commissioners asked staff to correct in a future map cleanup.
Commissioner Dern made the motion to approve the rezoning and Commissioner Nick seconded; the motion carried 5–0. The commission’s recommendation will go to the Dayton City Council for final action at its Sept. 24 meeting.
The approval was procedural: the commission made a recommendation that will be considered by the council, which has the final zoning authority.
