MfnUTGS of Regu!ar Council Mee'~ing Pags four January 10, 1977 . Judd Zands-rj-~:l20..<3.2ho~9.:')d_.QJ:ive, 58id i"hai" his neighborhood seems to be surroundod by P-I (Presbyterian Homes, Lake Johanna Elem- entary School and North\'!flstern College); doesn't feel the P-I is very well defined; not many restrictions are placed on this P-I zone. He said Lake Johanna School wi II be closed this year; suggested that zoning should remain R-I as presently zoned, instead of P-l. Jos~h Kahni,e, ',~')4i Edg3water Avenue, sE,id It is easy to see Public Use of high sCheol, but asked if books Bra examined to determine that Northwestern College is indeed a public use? Definition needs clarification. Kahnke referred to applause given for Erickson's statement; asked how malY are taxpayers? . Jim Guest, said tho new P-l classification concerns and bothers all of us - no longer .ill have the R-I density restrictions; only P-I restrictions. Fredlund said the P-I stil' must consider the area around it; same Special Use Permit requirements as before - a new P-I \1ill have -to go -j-hrough re-zoning as well. Gusst said it Isn't very ciear what con-trols wi II be required. Gene Vor.R.ahl, IS..2!.J?lenhi! I Road - P-I classification has wide use, yet it is ambiguous and vague; fsel it vias done especially to accomo- date Northwestern College. Fredlund said it is used widely; not fer a special interest group. ~1rs. Peterson, L?36 Edg'a~Jater Av~- Is Planner so adamant? The Planner's oniy statements "in 'favor" of the P-I With so many objections, why job is to furnish Information; are from Northwestern Col lege. Betty Stanton, 1,569 _Edg3t.ai:..~_.Av0nue, asked '.'Ihat theadvantag05 of the P-I are1 Fredlund explained that it separates uses so they can be treated differently and provides a zoning criteria for this separation - sBpa~ates these uses from the R-I and R-2 in which they are presently located. Name inaudible - Why not a P-I Dis.rr!ct of vacant land? All ?-I does is label exis.riqj schools s'J.c. as P-I. L"IH1~ier l..i pDe'=..!..t__1517 Glenh j ! I ~_, sa i d no one wants NorthwBstel-n Col lege to leave; the new ordinance is permissive, not restrictive. A public college Is not allowed in our R-I District. Former ordinance was one on whiCh residents could rely. P-i zone encourages rezoning. Collage came in In 1970; was not permitted when exis~lng ordinance was adopted; it's not up to tiHJ Counci I -;-0 get NOI-thlllBstern College out of a bind. P-I District was proposed after Spec!BI Use Permit for Northwestern ~ol !egB wes deniad. Private colleges do not belong In 11-1 by ae.tion of the Counci I.
