Zoning File #1980 October 16, 1986 Page 2 of 5 Review of Application: At the Planning Commission meeting of September 15, 1986, conceptual direction was given to the applicants advising them to proceed with a formal rezoning application. In earlier discussion, it was thought that the applicants should first seek conceptual direction from the Council in light of the major expenses involved in the preparation of a multi phased application (rezoning, subdivision and conditional use permit). Applicant was advised that in rezoning applications involving the RR-IA zoning district, the City has consistently sought the input of the residents of the 5-acre rural zone before taking any position on a rezoning application. The RR-IA zoning district exists because the majority of its residents wish to retain the ambiance of the large acred - hobby farm - low density neighborhood. The most recent request by developers to rezone an RR-IA property adjacent to a zoning boundary line was the Painters Creek Development group. The application involved the former Ski Tonka properties - the rezoning sought a change from RR-IA to RR-IB - Rural 2-acres minimum. The rezoning was denied and the property developed under the PRD made at the one unit per 5-acre density. Comments on petition for rezoning: The applicant is John McDowell, potential buyer of the Miner tract# ^he owners^who actively seek the rezoning^are Andrew Miner and John Burger. Hazel Anderson, Steve Gardiner and James Maus are the adjacent property owners whose properties are included in the areas to be rezoned. Please review Exhibit N depicting ownership and location of existing residences. Note per Section 10.10, Subdivision 2 (3) - the vagueness of this standard would suggest we have received a valid petition. Please note Exhibits H, I & P, the City zoning maps are incorrect and show Gardiner's .39 acre property included in the RR-IA zone. Gardiner's property is already located within the LR-IA zone. Staff will verify the records but it appears that the east 75 feet of the Maus property is also included in the LR-IA zone. Burger was to complete a rezoning of that corridor to RR-IA with his 1977 subdivision application but it is not clear from the information currently available to staff if that has been completed.
