recommends to the City Council that the rezoning element comprehended under the proposed
Planned Unit Development and submitted under Application No. 2018-001 by Greg Hayes of
Ebert Construction, may be approved based upon the following findings:
a. The proposed rezoning appears to demonstrate a clear and public need or
benefit to the community and regional area, as it will improve the
appearance of the city and enhance the quality of life, property values, and
civic pride in this neighborhood area; and provide an opportunity for the
currently vacant 57th and Logan site to be invested in;
b. The rezoning and its related development proposal will not be a detriment
to the neighborhood, and should provide a positive effect on the
community;
The rezoning will facilitate the redevelopment of this site as an indoor
commercial storage building, which will be compatible with the goals and
policies of the City's Comprehensive Plan and underlying land use plan,
which designates the Subject Property for a mixed range of uses, including
OS ("Office/Service Business,") and RB ("Retail Business");
d. The proposed zoning is consistent and compatible with the surrounding
land use classifications;
The proposed rezoning will provide an opportunity for the Subject
Property to maintain its underlying C2 (Commerce) District zoning
classification with the flexibility of a Planned Unit Development (PUD),
allow an approximately 2.6 acre portion of vacant land to be redeveloped
into an indoor commercial storage building, and stimulate new investment
in the neighborhood and community;
The Development/Site and Building Plan is compatible with the standards,
purposes, and intent of the City's Zoning Ordinance;
g. The Development/Site and Building Plan, in relation to the Planned Unit
Development proposed on the Subject Property, will facilitate the
redevelopment and improvement of the site, will allow for the utilization of
the land in question in a manner which is compatible with, complementary
to, and of comparable intensity to adjacent land uses as well as those
permitted on surrounding land;
h. The improvements and utilization of the Subject Property as proposed under
the planned redevelopment of this site is considered a reasonable use of the
PC RESOLUTION NO. 2018-002
property and will conform with ordinance standards; and
The Development/Site and Building Plan proposal is considered consistent
with the recommendations of the City's Comprehensive Plan for this area of
the city, appears to be a good long range use of the existing land, and can be
considered an asset to the community.
AND WHEREAS, upon due and proper consideration of this matter, and in light of
all testimony received, utilizing the guidelines for evaluating rezoning contained in Section 35-208
