September 11, 2019 <br />Centerville City Council <br />Page 10 of 10 <br />RE: Downtown Zoning Updates <br />(1)The City wants to maintain a mixed-use Central Business District with a balance of retail <br />and moderately dense residential housing. Given these priorities, updating the standards <br />for the mixed use and downtown neighborhood districts is reasonable and appropriate. <br />(2)With the updated standards to the M-1 and M-2 districts, it is necessary to rezone properties <br />to be consistent with guided land use. Updating the zoning map is therefore both <br />reasonable and appropriate. <br />(3)The Master Plan & Development Guidelines for Downtown Centerville is a document that <br />was adopted by the City Council in 2006. Over time, some of the language and standards <br />in the document have changed, and therefore it is reasonable and appropriate to update <br />the document. <br />(4)The Zoning Code directly references the Master Plan & Development Guidelines for <br />Downtown Centerville document, and therefore text changes to the zoning code are also <br />reasonable and appropriate. <br />(5)Attractive, high quality development in Downtown Centerville is an important goal of the <br />City and large or unsightly storage uses are inappropriate. Limiting accessory structures <br />and storage uses in the M-1 and M-2 districts with reasonable regulations is therefore <br />reasonable and appropriate. <br />90 <br /> <br />
