Planning Commission Minutes December 4, 1985 Page 8 Modjeski also pointed out that there were some non-residential businesses illegally occurring in the area. Mr. McKee pointed out that his son's offer has not yet been met, and that his son, who is one of the holdouts, deserves more money. Fisher pointed out that the development team has been working with respect to storm sewer runoff with the staff, and has submitted a concept plan. Recommendation Matson stated that the development would be a major opportunity to enhance the City, and great care has been taken to work with the neighborhood. Matson then moved approval of the amendment to the comprehensive plan to modify the area from low density and medium density residential to business. Johnson seconded the motion. Discussion Dressler stated that she was worried about the fact that people would have to move out of the area, but this appeared to be the only viable alternative. Demos stated that Mr. Modjeski should be complimented for actually pointing out that non-residential uses were occurring in the area. Wiski stated that he was concerned about the rezoning, but a modified landscaping plan would appropriately protect the residents on the east. He also stated this is a very important "gateway" type of project for the City. Johnson stated fourteen years ago she was concerned about truck terminals, and that she thought this was a good project. She stated she liked to see the industry zones converting into business type zones. Roll Call, Ayes: Berry, Johnson, Dressler, Matson, Mueller, DeBenedet, and Wiski. Nays: None. Recommendation Matson moved to rezone the parcel from 1-1, R-1, R-2, and B-3, to B-4, and said rezoning should be contingent upon acquisition by the developer or the City. DeBenedet seconded the motion. Roll Call, Ayes: Berry, Johnson, Dressler, Matson, Miller, and DeBenedet and Wiski. Nays: None.
