" ~.... "0, . . . . , . ARDEN IDLLS PLANNING COMMISSION - APRIL 2, 2003 10 from Bethel College and mini-storage facilities. He noted given the location of the property and some of development constraints, it would need to be commercial or higher density residentiill. Commissioner Zimmerman stated the way the property was laid out in the Zoning Map was sufficient and did not need to be changed. He noted if a developer wanted to change the zoning, it would be up to them to come in for a rezoning request. He believed the Future Land Use map should be changed to match the Zoning Map. Mr. Hellegers noted there was also large electric trans:tnission lines along Cleveland A venue and any development would need to be outside the easement area, approximately 100 feet back from the street. He iIlso noted staff had received requests from various developers for businesses, as well as interest in constructing a single-family home. Commissioner Ricke suggested leaving it up to the public hearing and the residents to direct the Commission. . Commissioner Zimmerman noted if there was not a need to change it at this time, why change it. Mr. Parrish noted the purpose of the Future Land Use Plan was for the future planning and the City needed to determine what they wanted to see there in 20 years and not rely solely on resident input to make that decision. Commissioner Ricke pointed out that the City did not know the reason the Comprehensive Plan was laid out the way it was. Commissioner Zimmerman noted he did not see the reason they needed to rezone this, there appeared to be no need to do so and he did not want to split up residentiill property. Commissioner Larson noted he supported the staff's recommendation because of its proxi:tnity to the freeway. He stated he would like to see the area rezoned and this was a good area for a neighborhood business. Commissioner Modesette stated she agreed with Commissioner Larson and expressed concern about creating an island between residentiill and neighborhood bnsiness. She pointed out the three southern lots were already separated lots from the residential side. Commissioner Bezdicek asked which lot had recently been separated. Mr. Rellegers replied it was the second lot from the south. Commissioner Ricke asked if it would be difficult to show the R-2 coming off of the Southwest comer as suggested by Commissioner Modesette. Mr. Hellegers noted that area would need to rezoned to be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Chair Sand noted they would need to prepare a survey to go along with the topography. Commissioner Zimmerman moved, seconded by Commissioner Larson to recommend that the Commission supports the Current Zoning as it exists and change the Comprehensive Plan Map (Future Land Use) to match the Zoning Map.
