R-4 Multiple ResTlence
Hr. Luce referenced the prolivinary plat, Ma plan, and project drawings
and clarified the proponents are requesting ;-, s,,fhd.t.vA&on and concept and final
approval for rezoning of the property in question kron R-4 with deed restrictions
to PRD -3. He recalled the property was originally rezoned in 1970 (2-70-2) with
deed restrictions limiting the development to a 650 `bot iong, 64 unit, 3-4 story
apartment building along the Crosstown, The present proposal includes 44 dwelling
units in 22 buildings which will be residential in appearance and character, Mr.
Luce recommended approval of the rezoning to PID -3 for the reasais stated in the
staff report, with waiver of the second reading inasmuch as the request constitutes
a down zoning and most of the necessary information for final plan approval has been
submitted and is acceptable, Approval of the suhdivision, subject to a 5% cash
parkland contvibution, was also recommendoi

Mr. David Kirscht, 'che apchion, presented a inrling mai n! and briefly

(the owner) and fir., Robert 1 rOeT1T,11TTg, the pr-oponen,-s, have been. co.mpel.led to rent
to uses that are, in some cases, marginal, anis have hean unable to date to "..-ease
the remaining available space, The s-aff, after reva.ca ing a nLairber of potential
leasees that were either undesirar;le in that: neighbor` hod. or not allowed in the
C-1 district or both, sug?ested the owner et ternpt to rezcmic the proncrty to C-2
to broaden the list: of allowable uses;, Approval of tlifi bequested rezoning from C-1
to C-2 was recommended because: 1„ the rezoning would improve the site and
neighborhood, as greater competition would he encouraged; and 2., -t:he previous use,
the grocery store, generated more tra'Ffic and: noisc than the a7: ount conr.empl_a"ced
for any re -use of the remaining le.asal)le space under the C=2 ordinance.
Lengthy discussion fol .owed. Several com,,ti solon members had reservations
about rezoning the site to C-2 because of the long 1 -1st- and bread range of permitted
uses in the C-^2 district., many of which wo1Ad "slut n --c' ssarily 'Lie co rpatiole in tha _
