IT WAS THE TIME AND PLACE FOR A PUBLIC HEARING ON Z-435.
The intent of the City Council to initiate a request
for a change of zone from OS, Open Space to R-3, High
Density Residential on approximately 1.5^ acres located
at the Southerly corner of Walnut Creek Wash at Francis-
quito Avenue.
Director of Community Services Kelly explained that
this property was intended for a Senior Citizen
Housing complex. The Department of Housing and Urban
Development indicated displeasure with this type of
use. Council authorized Staff to withdraw the site
approval request and acquire a site in the downtown
area.
The Planning Commission reviewed the zone change and
continued the matter to allow Staff time to explore
the possibilities of applying conditions to the zone
change, to be used for Senior Citizen Housing. The
City Attorney said this cannot be done if it does
not conform to City and State Codes. The Planning
Commission voted 3-0 to recommend that Council deny
the request to R-3 zoning. Staff recommends that
Council approve the zoning to R-3, High Density Residential
Mayor White declared the Public Hearing open on Z-435
and invited those wishing to speak to come forward.
There were none.
Mayor white declared the Public Hearing closed.
In response to Councilman King's question. Director
of Community Services Kelty explained the alternatives
for disposing of this property in order to control the
building design so that it does not cause adverse effects
on the surrounding area. One alternative includes changing
the zoning to R-3 and setting conditions of sale subject
to Council's approval of site plans. Another alternative
is to place the property in R3PD zoning.
City Attorney Flandrick stated that either alternative
is available for Council consideration.
Council discussed the first alternative, how it would
benefit the area and the density could be controlled.
They felt if it was City owned the City could control
it. They also expressed their concern in over-ruling
the Planning Commissions recommendation and asked the
reasons for the denial by the Commission. Director
