the Commission tonight. Commissioner Hovingh called attention to a single-family home on the comer of Vineyard Avenue and Linden Way that is not included in the action taken tonight. He asked staff if that is within the City. Mr. Pavan stated that particular property is unincorporated. Further discussion ensued between Commissioner Horan and Mr. Pavan as to how this area became unincorporated and rather isolated. Commissioner Horan asked whether the Ales want to be part of the medium density designation as being considered tonight. Mr. Pavan affirmed that the Ales do favor medium density . THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS OPENED Rich Hempy, 3568 Vine Street, stated he basically agrees with staff, but does not agree with the recommendation of R-1-7,500 designation for the Ales' property. He did not think R-l- 7,500 is consistent with the properties around them, as there are a number of different sized lots, some up to three acres. They would like to keep the area as rustic and rural as possible. He felt that R-1-20,OOO designation would be much more favorable for the area, but that R-1-10,OOO would work. Chairman Mahem asked whether there is an existing house on part of the Ales' property and how it would be affected by the designation. Mr. Hempy said the house on the Ales' property is situated to the left of the property and felt a lot line adjustment would not hurt the property at all. Commissioners Horan and Hovingh further discussed how R-1-7,500 designation would affect the area. Mr. Hempy concluded that if there is a lot line adjustment that it should conform to the others. He did not favor R-1-7,500. Rhonda Hempy, 3568 Vine Street, stated she would like the neighborhood to remain with large lots as it is now. She said there have been between two and four generations raised on these properties, and did not feel the lot lines should be changed. She called attention to Page 6 of the staff report that stated the letters in the staff report support staff recommendations; she said her letter does not support staff recommendations for R-1-7,500 or R-l-lO,OOO. She said that the letter from Chris Johnson states he favors 1/4 to 1/2 acre lots, not staff recommendation. She stated she would like to go on record as being in favor of having 1/2 acre lots and asked that those in agreement be allowed to stand. About 12 people in the audience stood in agreement. Tom Dillard, 495 Linden Way, stated he has lived across from the Ales' property for 15 Minute. PlanniDg eo..i..ioD June 12, 1991 Page 3 .. -
