<br />Planning Commission Minutes <br />June 23, 1992 <br /> <br />Page 12 <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Mr. Richard Swenson, realtor representing the prospective buyer, stated <br />that the purchase agreement identifies the current parcel as a separate <br />parcel from the existing campground parcel. He went on to explain the <br />intended use of the property which would consist of retail sales of <br />campers up front to blend in with the existing campground facility. <br />Mr. Swenson stated that the property was worthless under the current <br />zoning designation as the property cannot be developed as Single Family <br />Residential while adjacent to a junkyard. He stated that maybe a PUD <br />zoning would be better to protect the citizens and current land owners. <br /> <br />Stewart Wilson, 17975 Troy Street, stated that he owned property <br />directly south of the affected property along Highway 10 and he was <br />unclear to as what the petitioners were requesting, a C-3 zoning or <br />PUD? Mr. Rohlf stated that the original request was for C-3/Highway <br />Commercial zoning for which the Planning Commission recommended denial. <br /> <br />Mr. Herrick stated that they would be willing to discuss the PUD <br />approach as it would give the City some flexibility and still provide <br />protection against other uses that might be considered undesirable. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Stewart Wilson asked what the permitted and conditional uses were in <br />the C-3 zoning designation. Mr. Rohlf read the uses that would be <br />allowed in the C-3 zoning district. The Commission and staff proceeded <br />to discuss the uses which would be permitted at this site. Mr. Wilson <br />stated that he would like to see the areas north and south of Highway <br />10 stay consistent with other uses in the area. He felt that a PUD <br />would give the City more control as to what uses would be allowed. <br /> <br />Mike Klemz, 18540 Troy Street, was opposed to the request as he was <br />concerned with his property values. He thought that the long range <br />plan for the City was to stop this kind of development on the north <br />side of the highway. <br /> <br />Stephen Rohlf stated that the original request is for a C-3/Highway <br />Commercial zoning not a PUD. If this property were zoned PUD, with the <br />underlying land use of HB, it would still be a departure from the <br />City's Growth Management Plan to accommodate a special interest. Ms. <br />White was aware of the junkyard when she bought the existing <br />campground. Staff is still unsure whether that part of the parcel that <br />Ms. White is requesting a zone change on is devoted to part of the <br />campground use. <br /> <br />Rita Petkoff, Manager for ERA Lund Office, stated that the City's <br />Comprehensive plan shows the affected property as a potential <br />commercial site, and therefore, she felt it was consistent with the <br />City's Comprehensive Plan. Ms. Petkoff stated that she differed with <br />staff's comment that having commercial and residential traffic on the <br />frontage road does not make for a good mixture. She stated that <br />directly across Highway 10 on Waco Street there is a mixture of <br />residential and industrial traffic. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Mr. Rohlf <br />number of <br />commercial <br /> <br />addressed Ms. Petkoff's concerns stating that there were a <br />sites looked at in the City that were not chosen as <br />sites. He stated that the junkyard is zoned industrial but <br />
