Zoning commission clears way for new subdivision in North Peoria

The Peoria City Council is the last governing body yet to approve plans for a new subdivision in the city’s northwest corner.

The city’s Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously passed the proposal to turn just over 19 acres west of Radnor Road and north of Alta Lane into 34 single-family residential lots and 15 duplex lots.

Petitioners Mohr & Kerr Engineering, on behalf of Reality Green Acres LLC, call the development Kona Breeze Subdivision.

City staff says the subdivision fills the last piece of a development plan that dates back years, starting with annexation of the land in 2005.

According to a report from city staff, the proposal is generally in line with the city’s unified development code. However, it includes an almost 700-foot cul-de-sac — longer than the city code’s 400-foot limit. Staff told the Planning and Zoning commission members that other developments in Peoria allow for longer-than-regulation cul-de-sacs and staff had no objections.

The proposed plat is nestled beside Trailview Estates and requires expanding streets heading out of the existing development.

The area lies within Dunlap School District 323.

No one spoke during an opportunity for public comment on the proposed project.

The proposal moves forward to the Peoria City Council's meeting for its vote on Tuesday, Jan. 28.
