Page 3 Mrs. Dressler indicated she preferred that the existing gravel parking lot be finished with an asphalt surface before another lot is constructed, but would agree with Mrs. Johnson's suggestion to construct a new lot meeting the requirements. Mr. Olson asked about various City parking lots that are not curbed in the parks, as well as the lot at Fire Station Number 3. Recommendation Johnson moved, Berry seconded that King of Kings Lutheran Church application for variance to curbing requirement at 2330 North Dale be denied. Roll Call, Ayes: Berry, Dressler, Johnson, DeBenedet and Moeller. Nays: None. Planning File 1586 - Yorkton Limited, Inc. application for rezoning from R-l to R-3, special use permit for Planned Unit Development and Daycare Center, variance to parking and density requirements, preliminary plat and amendment to the Comprehensive Plan at 2350 Lexington Avenue. Presentation Mr. Dahlgren indicated the applicant proposes to construct two 78 unit apartment buildings for seniors, a Daycare Center on the southeast corner of Grandview and Lexington, and a future office building where the two existing single-family homes are located at Lexington and Highway 36. The property is shown on the Comprehensive Plan for high-density residential development. The property is currently zoned R-3, except for the northerly 110 feet and the two lots occupied by single-family homes which are zoned R-l. The rezoning application is from R-l to R-3 of the northerly 110 feet. The special use permits are for a Planned Unit Development of the entire site, and for the Daycare Center. The amendment to the Comprehensive Plan is for the proposed office building where the two existing single-family homes are located. Mr. Larry Lee, president of Yorkton Limited, indicated the proposed apartment buildings would be for upper-income residents. Mr. Lee indicated the site plan provides for no driveways from the development onto Grandview Avenue, and also keeps all parking lots away from Grandview Avenue. Discussion Mr. Drown stated the subdivision ordinance requires adjacent streets to a proposed plat to be brought up to standard. This would require Grandview Avenue to be improved. Mr. Lee indicated he would be willing to improve the street when the project is constructed.
