Memo to Mayor and City Council/ZC 02-03 <br />May 20, 2002 <br />Page 3 <br /> <br />Planning Commission Action <br /> <br />There was some general discussion about the number of units and what the anticipated rent <br />Per unit might be. Mr. Alfords, the applicant, stated that the rent for the current apartment <br />,s $800 per unit, and that the rent would be approximately $1,200 per unit for the new <br />building. <br /> <br />The proposed site is favorable to the city, as it could be utilized for the demolition of the <br />Jackson Avenue water tower. The schedule of when the water tower would be coming <br />down was discussed and Terry Maurer, the City's Engineer, stated that the timing has been <br />moved up since this opportunity has become available. <br /> <br />Bringing the existing apartment building into compliance as well as building a second <br />apartment building at the proposed location was thought to be a good idea. <br /> <br />The Planning commission voted unanimously to recommend approval for both the Land <br />Use Amendment and a Zone Change. <br /> <br />Recommendation <br /> <br />Staff and the Planning Commission recommend that the City Council approve the request to <br />amend the Land Use Plan from MR (Medium Density Residential) to HR (High Density <br />Residential) and also to rezone the parcels Rlc to R4 (Multiple Family Residential) based on <br />the following findings: <br /> <br />1. THE LAND USE AND REZONING ARE COMPATIBLE WITH THE <br /> SURROUNDING LAND USES. <br /> <br />S:\PLANNING\Case Files\ZC 02-03 Alfords\ZC 02-03 CC.DOC <br /> <br /> <br />
