Planning Commission December 20, 2022 Page 2 Mr. Leeseberg stated he was not sure of the applicant's plans for future use. He noted that may be determined by the discussion for the work session item later that evening discussing ordinance changes to the code may allow minimal numbers of multi -family units in single-family developments such as this. He noted staff were not supportive of this IUP request 3 years ago because there was no end date. Commissioner Maurer indicated he wondered if there was a requirement to the current tenants notifying them of any future sale of the property. Mr. Leeseberg noted condition 2 will notice future buyers the IUP will not run with property and condition 5 will notify the current residents the IUP will expire on March 16, 2026. Chair Larson -Vito opened the public hearing. Tammy Jorgenson -Owens, 1790 Tipton Circle, asked questions regarding the rezoning and if this will allow the applicant to knock the home down and build a bigger multi -unit dwelling. She explained she lives across the highway near ResCare and was concerned about additional affordable housing near her home and will this continue to occur in other neighborhoods around the city. She requested to leave residential neighborhoods as single-family neighborhoods. She disliked the increase in affordable housing and increase in traffic. Mr. Leeseberg stated that was a great question and a condition could be added limiting the number of units to three. He explained the rezoning discussion to take place during tonight's work session would not be to allow a larger multi -family structure, it would be to allow duplexes or fourplexes in limited amounts, as the comprehensive plan outlines. Commissioner Maurer stated there would have to be additional discussion and approval to turn this into something other than residential housing. Ms. Jorgenson -Owens indicated she is opposed to adding more units and asked where you draw the line if this is allowed. She doesn't have a concern with this situation but in another three years, what if they request additional units. Chair Larson -Vito indicated when they reviewed the Comprehensive Plan last year, there was a need for small duplex, triplex within neighborhoods and would be discussed later in the work session. There being no one to speak, Chair Larson -Vito closed the public hearing. Chair Larson -Vito stated she was on the Planning Commission when this permit was first requested three years ago and lives in the neighborhood, echoing the same concerns brought up tonight. Moved by Commissioner Johnson and seconded by Commissioner Keisling to recommend approval of the request by Sogdiana LLC for an Interim Use PINEIEI I NATURE
