I recorr�end that the Council commence an action to rezone the subj ect property from B-2, Lakeshore Business District, to LR-lA, One Family Lakeshore Residential District. I reco�nend �hat the Cour�cil thereaiter deny the 1979 Commercial Dock Lic�nse application of George R. Johnson and that the Council : deny any and all a�plications for co;,�nercial development on the subject proper�y. I reco�nend that the Council deny conti�ued use oz the property for commercial purposes including on-land storage an d in-lake dock construction and that the Council institute condemnation procedures for the existing Lnsafe dock structures finding, as the Council - did in the �1978 Dock License Resolution No. 971, that such structures pose an im�-nediate hazard to public health and safety. I recommend that the Council (and staff) continue study of the . Stubbs Bay Moratorium Area in regard to the other issues of sewage , . treatment and disposal, flooding hazards , housing deterioration, crowding and the need for future public expenditures to alleviate • such conditions . Such study is intended to be completed prior to the end of the current Moratorium expiring on July 31, 1979, with the findings and conclusions of such studies to be incorporated � in the current review of the Comprehensive Plan of the City. III. SUGGESTED FINDINGS IN SUPPORT OF THIS RECOMMENDATION These findings are not considered to be a complete list but are only representative of the detailed findings which would be incorporated iri a final resolution of• the City Council. l. The Council confirms the findings and conclusions of the 1974 Comprehensive Guide Plan regarding the paramount objectives of • a) the preservation of the quality of Lake Minnetonka as a unique, yet fragile ecological and recreational asset and b) the maintenance of low-density rural land use policies as opposed to urban development which development �ften results in increased public and private costs while serving to benefit a limited number of developer/land owners to the ,detriment of the citizens in gerieral. _ • , •.2. The Council acknowledges that, while the findings and conclusions � of the 1974 Comprehensive Guide Plan were and still are valid, the designation of the subject property� for commercial use was in -� error and was urisupported by any logical planning or land use '� criteria which error shoul'd now be corrected as part of the overall Comprehensive Plan Review. - .
