You will nate, the line of this wetlands area on the attached reduced plan. io the narth of the B-lb, Mr. Cave �raposes an R-2 Zone as a transition to the single family area to the north. 7his praperty is, in fact, aimost �ntireTy within the wetlands ar�a itself. 4!e suggest tF�ai this pro�erty not be zoned and be left single famiiy, inasm�ch as that area of the swamp, in our- oainion, should not be filled and-uti�ized at a17. 5_ A1r.

Normally, this of a�ortion of the swamp along the sautherly 6. T�e B-lb Districi, you are all aware, is a highly restrictive district which has been ut�lized on properties conti�uous to Highwav 36 and west of Rosedale Center. We feel the uses that are allowed in tha� district woUlaf be appropriate for this site in vieU� of �he existing commercial zoning across Transit Avenue and the fact that it is �solated fram the res�dential and park area to the north by the swamp area itself. To our knowledge no specif�c uses for the B-lb property are �,raposed at this tim�. No development nf the property can occur, however, until such time as a special u�e.permit is issued for the site plan approval as prescribed in the procedures under the B-1b District regulations. 7. The staff has me-t on numerous occassions with Mr_ Cave regarding the development of this property and feei that it is an appropriate m�xture of land uses given the site conditions as �hey exist. Mr. Cave has agreed verbally to the dropping of �he R-2 Zone to tY�e nor-�h and the re�ention o�' the wetlands area in that �art of the plat. We would antici�ate the total retention of the svramp area as indicat�d by the dot�ed line on t�e second attached developm�nt plan. �
