807 Commissioner Boerigter concurred with other commissioners speaking in support of Community P g PP y 808 Business designation, noting there may be certain situations where additional access would be 809 appropriate, however, couldn't provide a specific situation unless the entire site were to be 810 redeveloped. Commissioner Boerigter opined that Community Business designated zoning areas 811 would create interaction, with other such designations throughout the City also close to 812 residential, creating the initial debates in considering whether the Har Mar Mall and Target sites 813 should be designated Regional or Community Business. Commissioner Boerigter opined that it 814 didn't make sense to designate a parking R -1. Commissioner Boerigter further observed that if 815 discussion was how Commercial Business zoning meshed with neighboring residential properties, 816 this was a prime example; and opined that there was no rationale to indicate that the southern 817 portion was off limits and excluded from the Commercial Business designation, any more than a 818 portion of the northern half adjacent to the apartment buildings. Commissioner Boerigter 819 concurred with the need to seriously consider and think through the intent of Community 820 Business and medium density as it developed zoning code language and definitions for parcels 821 through out the community, not just this specific area. 822 Unidentified male audience member who previously read the Comprehensive Plan Purpose 823 Statement 824 The unidentified speaker suggested that the Commission remain consistent with the Statement of 825 Purpose and related designations as to protecting residential areas; questioning if the commission 826 was in fact doing so. 827 Chair Doherty advised that the Planning Commission, for the record and by majority consensus, 828 found no need to change the designation of Community Business for these parcels; noting that 829 Commissioner Cook would support the parcels remaining Single- Family Residential. 830 Cedric Adams, 556 West County Road C (SE corner of County Road C and Dale Street) 831 Request that property, currently zoned Single family Residential be retained for LDR -1 832 zoning (PIN 12- 29 -23 -22 -0003) 833 Chair Doherty spoke in support of a Comprehensive Plan Amendment that the parcel be 834 maintained Single Family Residential. 835 Commissioner Boerigter suggested that the Commission consider the future of the property, and 836 how they saw its development, since there were two (2) different owners. 837 Discussion included clarifying each of the properties and their current and proposed zoning 838 designation; whether to add the parcel(s) to the list of anomaly properties or recommend to the 839 City Council a Comprehensive Plan Amendment; and previous and confusing designation of one 840 of the properties improperly guided to Open Space. 841 Mr. Adams 842 Mr. Adams reiterated his intent to construct a home on 556 West County Road C. 843 Mr. Paschke noted the error in the zoning designation guidance of the adjacent parcel as Park 844 Open Space in the Comprehensive Plan and suggested amendment to Low Density Residential 1 845 (LDR -1).
