Mr. Greves asked that consideration be given to sewer, water and traffic impacts. Lee Nelson, 4866 Treewood stated the project would block his view of the ridge. Commissioner Jamieson addressed Mr. Nelson, Mr. Greves, and Mr. Listman stating it is difficult to understand how one house is going to make an impact on the traffic situation. Commissioner Jamieson said he fully appreciates the citizens' concerns but that this type of density will not effect Foothill Road's traffic conditions one way or the other and that other develop- ments will effect it much more and that one or two units will not block the view of the ridge. DeWitt Ault, 4848 Treewood, asked what is going to happen to the west side of Foothill and asked who is responsible for the widening. Mr. Warnick explained. Mr. Greves stated that use of R-1-40,000 makes one think of multiple residences in the area and that if Mr. Newnam just wants to build one house he should be allowed to do it and said he didn't understand why the City is using R-1-40,0000 when all Mr. Newnam is asking for is one house. Mr. Harris explained that the Newnam, Hempe and Greves properties are all Low Density Residential and that when Mr. Newnam came in for a lot line adjustment, staff suggested R-1-40,000 to make the area in con- formance with the general plan and the Agriculture is a holding zone. Mr. Greves stated it seems to him that you can't zone something for development when it includes an area subject to slipping and sliding. Mr. Harris stated if it could be proven that the property is hazardous for residential in some manner then the general plan should be changed on that property. The public hearing was closed. A motion was made by Commissioner Jamieson, seconded by Commissioner Lindsey that the negative declaration prepared for case RZ-81-8 be recommended for adoption as the proposed rezoning would have no signi- ficant adverse environmental effects on the area.
