<br />e <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />Rezone Request R69-005 <br /> <br />Page 5 <br /> <br />an underlying land use designation of Commercial Industrial <br />appears to be a more suitable alternative. The Conditional use <br />procedure which insures Planning & Zoning Commission and City <br />Council oversight of development standards, will give the City <br />the means with which to protect the integrity of neighborhood <br />development. PUD controls should ulltimately be extended to the <br />entire ICN development. <br />Given adequate control on the City's part, it appears that <br />B.I. type development on this tract could comfortably coexist <br />with existing development in the area and ultimately benefit the <br />City as a whole. <br />The major issue which is raised has to do with the primarily <br />undeveloped R-2 zone located to the east. In the short term, the <br />park proposed by the applicants will provide an adequate buffer <br />for this zone. However, accepting the applicant's reasoning <br />regarding their tract calls into question the Comprehensive <br />~lan/B int~nt for th~ ~ntir~ ~-f zon~; Approval of the request <br />will almost certainly mandate a review of the Comprehensive <br />Plan's intent for the northeastern quadrant of the city. <br /> <br />Conclusion: <br />Granting this rezoning will constitute an amendment to the <br />City's Comprehensive Plan and will also have implications for the <br />City at large. Having acknowledged this however, the applicant's <br />reasoning and request appears to be sound and reasonable. <br />
