in applying for a CUP, and the City cannot require Zone 7 to do so. She pointed <br />out that with this scenario, an A designation would be more fortuitous. <br />Commissioner O'Connor inquired what was allowed besides open space in an A <br />zoning. Ms. Decker replied that Exhibit F of the staff report lists a number of <br />things, including small structures and asingle-family home. She added that the <br />City has no intent to build, change, modify, or otherwise construct any sort of <br />structure on the area. She stated that the purpose of the License Agreement is <br />to maintain the site as is and be able to maintain it as a community amenity. <br />Commissioner O'Connor inquired how the City would ensure that a structure is <br />not built and whether or not conditions to this effect should be in place. <br />Ms. Decker replied that the property is owned by Zone 7 and that the purpose of <br />the proposal is simply to allow the land to be annexed to the City. <br />Commissioner O'Connor noted that if the property is pre-zoned A and the <br />License Agreement does not prohibit it, Zone 7 could build on the property in the <br />future if it so desired. Ms. Decker reiterated that the purpose of the License <br />Agreement and the pre-zoning is to allow the land to be annexed to the City. <br />Commissioner O'Connor inquired whether or not there would be an option to <br />rescind the License Agreement ten years down the line and suggested setting a <br />time cap of 25 years to provide maintenance of the area. He inquired if the <br />License Agreement would be a public document, and Ms. Harryman confirmed <br />that it would be. <br />Commissioner Fox noted that the property is currently zoned Public Health and <br />Safety and inquired if the General Plan prohibits building structures under this <br />zoning. She inquired if a General Plan amendment would be required If a portion <br />of the land was sold off for profit. <br />Ms. Decker replied that the License Agreement sets up a contract between <br />Zone 7 and the City, and should Zone 7 wish to sell off or change ownership, the <br />City would be engaged. She indicated that there would be a process prior to <br />simply selling the lands off. <br />Commissioner Fox inquired if the General Plan does not prohibit dwellings to be <br />put on lands designated Public Health and Safety designations. Ms. Decker <br />replied that was correct. <br />Commissioner Narum inquired if, after the land is annexed to the City and at <br />some point Zone 7 decided it wanted to sell off a piece, the zoning and approvals <br />would come under the control of the City as opposed to the County. Ms. Decker <br />replied that would be the case. <br />PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, July 23, 2008 Page 14 of 25 <br />
