• Background This item was before the Planning Commission on August 22nd and the Planning Commission recommended that the preliminary plat be revised to include an outlot on the north portion of the lot to assure protection of the existing trees from any future development consideration. Attached is a sketch of a revised plat that would create the one developable lot at the south end of the parcel and the balance of the property would be left as an outlot and retained by the city. Attached is a copy of the staff report to the Planning Commission dated August 22, 1995 with some additional information and background regarding these three applications. Recommendation A. Amending the land use plan from MR (Medium Density Residential) to HB (Highway Commercial), and, B. Rezoning that area proposed as Lot 1, Block 1, from Rlc (Single • Family Residential) to C3 (Highway Commercial) based on the following findings: 1. The times and conditions have changed to warrant the new zoning and land use designation to allow for commercial development at the intersection of Highway 169 and 193rd. 2. The rezoning and land use plan amendment will be consistent with the recommendations from the Steering Committee to extend commercial development north along Highway 169 to approximately the 194th alignment. 3. The rezoning and land use plan amendment will be a logical and continuous extension of the existing commercial along Highway 169. 4. The land use amendment and rezoning to commercial can be supported by the availability of water and sewer to the south and the existing transportation system. 5. The rezoning and land use plan amendment for the one and a half acre parcel will not enable an intense commercial development that may be detrimental to the surrounding • residential area. s:planning:pc:lua-6
