It is the consensus of the Planning and Zoning Commission that
this area has begun to be revitalized and is one of the few
areas where retired residents and younger families starting out
can afford to live. We agree that rezoning once started, would
proceed unchecked to Quaker Drive and destroy a vital neighbor-
hood.
The Planning and Zoning Commission made the following
recommendation to the City Council:
MOTION: (CRESS) To recommend to City Council the
disapproval of a zone classification
change of 201 Magnolia from SFR TO
O BD .
SECOND: (TODD)
VOTE: FOR: Holt, Hansen, Cress, Todd, Beeth and Baker
ABSTAINED: Ballard
MOTION CARRIED
PARK AND OPEN SPACE PLANS AND MAP
Commissioner Ballard addressed the Commission members saying
the Committee of Beeth, Baker and Ballard feel, after talking
with citizens and reviewing the study, research needs to be done
to determine what is in the best interest of the City. The
Committee feels one of the needs is large parks in strategic
locations.
