Site Plan Review <br /> <br />Administrator Statz presented the request of Apollo Development, Inc. to construct a 4-story, 103- <br />unit apartment building on Lot 2, Block 2, Rehbein Commercial, which is currently zoned B-2 <br />(Main Street Commercial) and would require a rezone to R-3 (High Density, Residential). This <br />would require a Comprehensive Plan amendment and Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for a Planned <br />Unit Development. Our Ordinances require all lots zoned R-3 require a PUD.

The City Assessor analyzed and found the taxable value on the apartment complex as <br />it is proposed. He questioned the Assessor and developer to compare it to a commercial property. <br />He stated there was good communication between the two and he feels the Assessor completed a <br />fair assessment.
