Mr. John Corley, attorney, was present to represent the applicant. He commented that the property's best use would be industrial and that it would serve as a good buffer for the institutional zoning across the railroad tracks. Mr. Alan Grossman, 3405 Bordeaux Place, stepped forward to speak for the adjacent owners, Drs. Schlies and Clemetson. He stated that rezoning the property at this time would be premature in the absence of sewer connections. He requested that the Commissioners look to orderly, logical development of that land. He stated that no one had contacted his clients, to date, to discuss any kind of overall development plan, or purchase of their land.

Commissioner Doherty asked Mr. Corley how he felt about a continuance for such a purpose. Mr. Corley indicated he would hope for a vote that evening. This would not preclude them from continuing to work with Dr S. Schlies and Clemetson on an overall plan. He did not feel the absence of an overall plan warranted withholding of zoning for the property. He felt that the city's conditional use permit process would serve as the needed control. The Public Hearing was closed. The Commissioners concurred that an overall plan should be worked out, if possible. A motion was entered and adopted continuing this application to February 8, 1978, to allow the property owners the opportunity to discuss feasibility of presenting an overall plan.

Application to rezone said 60-acre parcel of land described in the negative declaration for this case. Secretary Harris explained that the submission of an 82-lot preliminary subdivision map prompted City Council initiation of this zoning review. Staff analyzed this property in light of the HPD Ordinance, which would yield 12 units. Staff is not prepared to say that there should not be more than 12 units on the property at this time. If the property is zoned HPD, it would mean that approximately 55 acres would have to be -8 --
