It provides for residential scale, neighborhood-oriented GPI 6. That adequate inkastructure/facnities are awailable to serve th tv of e . 0 uses allowed by the change of zone, or that the applicant will upgrade and provide such where they do not exist or are under capacity. There is adequate infrastructure to serve the property with line extensions at the owners' expense. Staff acknowledges that the proposed rezoning will allow for elimination of a nonconforrning use. Because • the existing zoning on the property, the owners can not dernolish the deteriorating buildin and rebuild in a less intensive manner.
