That adequate infrastructure/facilities are available to serve the type of 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. All agencies are currently serving the property and can continue to do so with any necessary improvements constructed at the developers expense. 7. That the proposed rezoning will not adversely affect public health, safety or welfare by creating excessive traffic congestion, creating drainage problems, or seriously reducing light and air to adjacent properties. Under the current zoning of Residential-One, the property could continue to be used as a single family residence. However, since the property is adjacent to duplex and multi- family uses and fronts • a major street (Kipling St.) staff questions the suitability of the location for a single family home. Kipling St. is classified as an arterial street and carries over 3 7,000 cars per day (1998 count). 9. That the zoning will not create an isolated or spot zone district unrelated to adjacent or nearby areas. Planning Commission Page 5 WZ-99-13/Carey same as the adjacent property to the west.
