Mr. Mike Harris, representative for the application, indicated that he <br />felt the C-C zoning would be compatible for the property. He was not <br />against utilizing the majority of the property for offices, but in order <br />to make it a profitable business venture, at least in the initial stages, <br />he was requesting that the lower floor be used for retail commercial uses, <br />such as men's or women's clothing stores. He would be happy to agree to <br />excluding uses such as liquor stores or cocktail lounges. <br />Considerable discussion took place regarding the pros and cons of how best <br />to utilize the property, which has had a history of applications for service <br />stations, which have not materialized primarily because of traffic concerns. <br />It was felt that a commercial P.U.D. might be the best type of designation <br />for this property, which would give the City the greatest type of control <br />yet still allow the developer some latitude for business marketability of <br />the building. <br />The Commissioners felt that the property could best be served with a <br />C-C designation but under a planned unit development. Because of time con- <br />straints for the applicant, it was decided that a list of specific uses <br />which might be appropriate for development of the site be compiled by staff <br />and reviewed with each member of the Commission, then submitted to the <br />City Council at the time zoning of the site is reviewed by them. <br />Resolution 1657 was entered and adopted making the finding that the proposed <br />rezoning to the Commercial P.U.D. designation would not have an adverse <br />impact on the environment and that a Negative Declaration would be filed, <br />with a mitigating condition addressed to traffic circulation. <br />Roll Call Vote <br />Resolution: Doherty <br />Seconded: Getty <br />Ayes: Doherty, Leppert, Getty, Wilson, Jamieson <br />Noes: None <br />Absent: None <br />Abstain: None <br />Resolution 1658 was entered and adopted recommending to the City Council <br />zoning of this property in the C-Commercial P.U.D. District, with a list <br />of compatible uses submitted for review in conjunction with the zoning <br />review, adding the following condition, "That because of potential traffic <br />hazards associated with development on the subject site, no vehicular <br />access shall be allowed between the property and Hopyard Road and a right- <br />turn lane from Hopyard Road into Johnson Industrial Drive shall be provided <br />as part of any development on the site." <br />Roll Call Vote <br />Resolution: Doherty <br />Seconded: Wilson <br />Ayes: Doherty, Geppert, <br />Noes: None <br />Absent: None <br />Abstain: None <br />Getty, Wilson, Jamieson <br />-6- <br />
