5.2CP: City Code §201.07 (Comprehensive Plan OMPREHENSIVE LAN LAND USE MAP CHANGE Amendments) allows property owners to seek, and the Planning Commission to recommend, changes to the Comprehensive Plan; a recommendation by the Planning Commission to approve a change to the Comprehensive Plan must have the affirmative votes of at least 5/7ths of the Planning Commission’s total membership. While the Comprehensive Plan is generally protective of residential properties, and is especially sensitive to those that are adjacent to commercial properties, the subject residential property is one of only three that are rather isolated among the multi-family and commercial properties along this busy stretch of County Road B. The fact that the Comprehensive Plan continues to guide these properties for residential purposes, however, is more out of deference to those homeowners rather than the result of an objective assessment of the most appropriate long term use of the properties. Taking all of this into account, the Planning Division believes that the proposed expansion of the parking area into what has been a residential property can do justice to the Comprehensive Plan’s goals and policies by improving traffic circulation in the area and incorporating appropriate screening/buffering for the adjacent residential properties. 5.3ZMC: Assuming that the proposed parcel consolidation and the change ONINGAPHANGE to the Comprehensive Plan are supported and approved, the requested ZONING MAP becomes a clerical step to ensure that the zoning map continues to be “consistent CHANGE with the guidance and intent of the Comprehensive Plan” as required in City Code §1009.04 (Zoning Changes). 6.0PC UBLICOMMENT Planning Division staff has received one letter from a nearby commercial business that is supportive of the request. 7.0RPCA ECOMMENDATION AND LANNINGOMMISSIONCTION Based on the comments and findings outlined in Sections 4 – 6 of this report, the Planning Division recommends approval of the proposed , PARCEL CONSOLIDATION CP, pursuant to OMPREHENSIVE LAN LAND USE MAP CHANGE AND ZONING MAP CHANGE Title 2 (Commissions), Title 10 (Zoning), and Title 11 (Subdivisions) of the City Code. The duly-noticed public hearing for this application was held by the Planning Commission on June 5, 2013; draft minutes of the public hearing were unavailable at the printing of the report, however, no citizens addressed the Planning Commission.
