Planning& Zoning Commission February 23, 2005 Meeting Minutes several business owners have been working with revitalizing the downtown area near the old public works site and the City has received a $75,000 grant regarding the same area. Chair Hanson stated that he felt commercial development would come before the th development along 20 Avenue. Mr. Palzer stated that with the M-1 zoning there are no buffer zones and zero lot lines for requirements. It was felt that more controls could be added to the M-1 District; however, same would affect the downtown area. Commissioner Wood felt that the best use of the main thoroughfare needed to be taken into account rather than the benefit of the current owners making a profit at sale time. Commissioner Klennert Hunt felt that the th five homes north of CSAH14 near the intersection of 20 Avenue is not a true neighborhood at this time. Mr. Palzer felt that may be the M-1 District would be immediately south of CSAH14 immediately near Corner Express. Consensus was to take some additional time and research on whether to rezone as Commercial versus M1.Mr. Palzer questioned what the Commission would th favor. It was stated that the five homes north of CSAH 14 and 20 Avenue should be zoned Commercial. It was felt that more time was needed to consider the remainder of Main Street to the curve.
