THE INCREASED DEVELOPMENT INTEREST IN THE WESTERN PART OF THE <br />COMMUNITY SIGNIFIES A CHANGE IN THE TIMES AND CONDITIONS WHEREBY <br />THE CITY NEEDS TO CONSIDER ESTABLISHING APPROPRIATE LAND USE AND <br />ZONING DESIGNATIONS FOR COMPATIBLE DEVELOPMENT TO OCCUR. <br /> <br />3. THE REQUESTED REZONING OF THE FIFTEEN (15) ACRE PARCEL WILL ESTABLISH <br />CONTINUITY AND COMPATIBILITY WITH THE EXISTING SINGLE FAMILY HOMES <br />THAT CURRENTLY EXIST ON BOTH THE EAST AND WEST SIDES OF THE SUBJECT <br />PROPERTY AND ELIMINATE THE INTRUSION OF LIGHT INDUSTRIAL ZONING <br />FROM THIS AREA. <br /> <br />4. BASED ON RECENT ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT OF THE PROPERTY, SOME <br />SAMPLING AND ANALYTICAL TESTING HAS INDICATED A POTENTIAL HEALTH <br />AND SAFETY CONCERN FOR NEIGHBORING PROPERTIES AND FUTURE <br />DEVELOPMENT CONSIDERATIONS. <br /> <br />APPROVAL IS RECOMMENDED WITH THE FOLLOWING CONDITION: <br /> <br />1. THE CITY COUNCIL CONSIDER PURCHASING THE PROPERTY AT ITS CURRENT <br />VALUE OR EXTEND THE AMORTIZATION PERIOD AS NECESSARY, IF THERE IS <br />SOME FINANCIAL MECHANISM THAT WOULD MAKE THIS POSSIBLE. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Commissioner Eberley suggested the term "purchase" in the above condition be <br />considered and discussed before the motion is seconded. Discussion ensued. <br /> <br />Commissioner Minton changed the condition to read: <br /> <br />1. THE CITY COOPERATE WITH THE APPLICANT AND GIVE CONSIDERATION TO <br />ACHIEVING A FINANCIAL SOLUTION TO THIS SITUATION. <br /> <br />COMMISSIONER EBERLEY SECONDED THE MOTION.
