Council Bill 72, a request for a change of zone from R-2 to RC-l with
conditions at l2~5u and l2j90 West 32nu ~venue, be denied for the
tollowinq reasons Planning CO~TIission unanimously recommenus denial
~nd staff reconwends denial; if rezoned, the potential use could create
problems with curb cuts and landscape requirements; the potential use
could create parkin'] problems and hazardous parking along 32nd ~venue;
the proposed rezoning is not consistent with the Cmnprehensive Plan;
there is no evidence that conditions have chanqed since the adoption of
said Plan; and the rezoning \"Z-30-32 vihich was referred to by the
applicants as a lo-c situated adjacent to intense cornJnercial zoning on
tne west side The ,IZ-dO-32 property can serve as a buffer to
contlllUing cOE1mercial zoninq; strong opposition from the neighbornood
indicates a concern for traffic congestion and for settinq a precedent
for future strip corrrrc1ercial zoninq in the area; seconded by tlr Bowman;
carried 6-2, Nith lr Lewis and Mr Aiello voting '~o for the reasons
tnat tne publication, posting and title of the petiti~n did not show
that this was with conditions and that the property has been more
affected in the last two or three years than in the past because of the
expansion of the Applewood Shopping Center
