most uses as new or expanded tenants. The condition some of the buildings and development is as follows: 2.1 Northco which owns 7 parcels consisting of 30.15 acres and appro�mately 455,000 s.f. of building space, states that of its estimated 33 tenants, only 11% would be considered "permitted uses" within the new `B-6" zoning district. Because these buildings are more than 20 years old, none of the buildin�s entirely meet the e�sting zoning requirements. 2.2 St. Paul Companies, which owns 5 parcels consisting of 21.6 acres and approximately 339,000 s.f. of building space, states that of its 18 tenants, appro�mately half of the current users would be considered permitted uses in the new `B-6" zoning district. Because these buildings are more than 30 years old, none of the buildin�s entirely meet the e�sting zoning requirements. 2.3 Reco/Regan, which owns 3 parcels consisting of 2 13 acres and approximately 12 1,700 s.f. of building space, as well as options on an additional 62 acres that (as of August 7, 2002) is vacant. Reco/Regan states that of its 10 vehicular repair and transportation related tenants, most may not ha�e proper permits under the e�• stin� codes and few would be considered permitted uses in the new `B-6" zoning district. Because these buildings are more than 34 years old, none of the buildin�s entirely meet the e�sting zoning requirements. 3.0 ALTERNATIVES: 3.1 The Commission should discuss and consider all aspects of the properiy owners' proposed permissive language amendments that provides for pre-e�sting uses to remain and expand (even if nonconforming) in the `B-6" "Mixed Use Business Park District". 3.2 The Commission should provide the City Council with a recommendation to amend, clarity, rewrite or retain the `B-6" "Mixed Use Business Park District" te�t. Alternative solutions include: a. Accept all language as proposed by owners. b. Accept some of clarified language as proposed by owners and City Attorney c. Recommend that specific parcels owned by the applicants be removed from the B-6 zoning district proposed for Twin Lakes until some future time when there is market demand for more upscale and fle�ble redevelopment regulations. d. Recommend retaining the e�sting language (i.e.,do nothing), a11ow e�sting language to remain. e. No changes at this time, allowing time for the market to recover: 1. Recommend retaining the e�sting language (do nothing to change the Code language for `B-6" districts). 2. Recommend tabling indefinitely (do nothing) to not approve the zoning map amendments from I-1, I-2, and B-1 and B-4, which are currently awaiting a second reading at the City Council level.
