Community Development Services 1) Public Hearing – Rezone From R2 and PB to LC, Zoning Ordinance, and Reasoned Statement of Relevant Criteria and Standards, 4.695 acres including Lots 18-23, Block 22, Highland Park Addition and a portion of Park Village Division No. 1: For consideration is a request to rezone 4.695 acres including Lots 18-23, Highland Park Addition and a portion of Park Village Division No. 1, from R2 and Professional Business (PB) to Limited Commercial (LC). The Planning and Zoning Commission considered this item at its February 4, 2020 meeting and recommended denial by a 5-1 vote. Staff’s recommendation at the time was for approval. However, the Commission believed commercial was more appropriate along Fremont which is an arterial street instead of in the interior part of the neighborhood. In reviewing the Comprehensive Plan, this is a case where both options can be supported by various policies. Staff recommended the applicant consider any other alternatives that might work for their proposal and be more consistent with the comprehensive plan. They have requested the item be brought to the Council for consideration as originally described. RECOMMENDED ACTIONS (in sequential order): a. Approve the Ordinance rezoning approximately 4.695 acres including Lots 18-23, Highland Park Addition and a portion of Park Village Division No. 1, under a suspension of the rules requiring three complete and separate readings and request that it be read by title and published by summary. b. Approve the Reasoned Statement of Relevant Criteria and Standards for the rezone of approximately 4.695 acres including Lots 18-23, Highland Park Addition and a portion of Park Village Division No. 1, and give authorization for the Mayor to execute the necessary documents.
