Ms. Paron-Boswell introduced the case with exhibits. Ms. Paron-Boswell stated
that staff is recommending approval subject to the following condition:
1. This property will need to be replatted and rezoned prior to development.
Commissioner Sarma asked Ms. Paron-Boswell what the zoning change
request process would be for this property. Ms. Paron-Boswell stated that they
would have to go through a rezoning as well as a detail site plan process. Staff
would then review what the applicant is proposing to ensure that it complies
with the long-range plans of the City.
Commissioner Sarma asked what the permissible zoning would be for this
property. Ms. Paron-Boswell stated that Highway Commercial allows for uses
such as office buildings, hotels, restaurants, and Light Industrial would allow
for uses such as office warehouses.
Commissioner Blankenship asked Ms. Paron-Boswell why the property would
have to be replatted and rezoned in the future if they are going through the
replatting process now. Ms. Paron-Boswell stated that they will have to replat
to add potential fire lanes, setbacks, and easements. They will have to rezone
the property because it currently has "split zoning", so depending on what they
would like to build, they will have to select the appropriate zoning category.
Robert Gossett, Halff Associates, was present to address questions and
concerns from the commission.
Chairman Haas asked Mr. Gossett why they requested to replat Lots 4-6 into
