REVIEW of REZONING: � 5.6 Plan Consistency. When reviewing applications to rezone land, the Community Development Staff first determines whether the anticipated use and subsequent zoning district designations are consistent with the Roseville Comprehensive Plan. The Staff has concluded that the proposed reuse of property for multi-tenant retail and a banlc is consistent with a land use map designation of Business (B). 5.7 Compatible Zoning District and Use. Staff has further determined a 26,000 sq. ft. multi-tenant retail building and a 7,085 sq. ft hanlc are uses best located in the B-2, Retail Business District. The City Planner has reviewed the proposal with respect to the existing and surrounding zoning, as well as for an appropriate zoning designation, and concluded that the B-2, Retail Business District is the most appropriate zoning district given especially given the Sports Authority site and its non- conforming sporting goods use in the B-1-B zone that is better served (permitted) by the B-2 zone. 5.8 Existing Traffic and Utility Capacity. The "reuse" of the subject property as multi-tenant retail and a banldng institution with drive-thru facilities will add vehicular traffic to the adjacent service drive and increase the turning movements at Fairview Avenue. The Community Development Department requested SEH to review the pre-existing use and the proposed use to determine the extent of any impact when more detailed site plans are available. 5.9 Policies. The Community Development Staff relies on the Adopted Comprehensive Plan Land Use Goals and Policies as the City Policy by which to formulate a conclusion on whether the rezoning is in the best interest of the City. This information has been analyzed through the Comprehensive Land Use Map Amendment process.
