M. ,~ , :\/1~~ . . ......:~'.J.,," TO: Ms. Moore-Sykes, City Administrator FROM: Teresa Bender, City clerkli~' SUBJECT: ComprehenmvePrnn(sYAJnendments DATE: September 8, 2004 I have researched some of the old records that were stored at the Public Works site in regards to the City's Compo plans. I was able to find a 1980 compo plan and it appears. that it was adopted by Council on June 2, 1982. An update was approved in 1989 and the current compo plan was completed in 1997. Further research needs to be done to ensure that appropriate public hearings were held to make modifications between the first Comprehensive Plan and the Update. It appears that there were numerous joint meetings between several members of Planning and Zoning, Council, Parks and Rec. and the Economic Development Task Force prior to the update in 1989 with a public hearing held at the Plarming and Zoning level. There are questions regarding the M-1 district and its inception, in 1980 it was B-1 and a much smaller area; 6805 - 20fu Avenue South, a compo plan amendment in 1986 to rezone from commercial to industrial with the updated compo plan in 1989 notes stating that it was Council's desire to revert the zoning back to B-1; and Uptown Center currently not reflecting a compo plan amendment in 1987 from R-2 to B-1 even though there was a residence on the property until several years ago (2000). In 1995 legislature was modified requiring a City's compo plan to supersede their zoning map and ordinances in whole or part that contradicted their compo plan would be need to be modified accordingly. This may have something to do with timing of amendments, review and approval of Met. Council and requirements needed for same. I will be in contact with Met. Council to gather additional information that they may have regarding amendments and what is currently on file with them in an attempt to correct any inaccuracies with the current compo plan and the current zoning map.
