The R3 zoning classification is an appropriate land use classification for the location in question in that it is consistent and compatible with all surrounding land uses. 2. Development of the property for townhouses is in the interest of the City, and the surrounding land uses, as well as the property owner, by adding 8 dwelling units to the Northeast Neighborhood. 3. Development of the property for townhouses is more con- sistent with a traffic level of up to 7,000 cars per day anticipated on 69th/70th Avenues North than single family residences in that internal driveways allow for better visibility for residents to enter the public street. 4. The proposed townhouse use of the land is not considered to be inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan goal that the Northeast Neighborhood be predominantly single family detached residential in character. 5. The proposed townhouse use is consistent with the recom- mendations of the Comprehensive Plan, specifically with the Land Use Revisions Map which calls for mid- density residential develogrent south of 70th Avenue North, east of the City Maintenance Annex and west of the Columbus Village Apartments. RESOLUTION NO. 82 -169 6. The property in question will bear fully the ordinance develop ment restrictions for the proposed zoning district, whereas the RI zoning classification presented development probl which would have lead to a less efficient use of land.
