THEY DECIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THIS COULD BE HANDLED UNDER SITE PLAN APPROVAL AND RECOMMENDED THE REQUESTED ZONING, CHANGE FROM R -I TO R -2C. MR. BERG NOTED THE PROPERTY IS IN AN AREA THAT IS PROJECTED TO BE DEVELOPED IN MULTIPLE FAMILY, AND HE FELT THE PROPOSED PROJECT WOULD PROBABLY PROVIDE LOW COST OR SIMILAR TYPE HOUSING. THE CHAIRMAN ASKED IF ANYONE PRESENT WISHED TO BE HEARD, THERE WERE NONE, AND IT WAS NOTED THAT NEITHER THE APPLICANT NOR HIS REPRESENTATIVE WAS PRESENT, ON MOTION BY COMMISSIONER DEESON, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER SCHMUCKER, THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY CLOSED THE PUBLIC HEARING. MOTION WAS MADE BY COMMISSIONER SIEBERT, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER Loy, TO DENY THE REQUEST OF VINCENT AND GARY ANTHONY FOR REZONING OF THE SUBJECT PROPERTY TO R -2C. COMMISSIONER SIEBERT STATED THAT THE REASON HE MADE A MOTION TO DENY REZONING IS THAT THERE IS NO WATER AND SEWER AVAILABLE, AND HE DID NOT BELIEVE THE PROPERTY IN QUESTION IS EVEN ON THE WATER AND SEWER SYSTEM. ADMINISTRATOR JENNINGS AGREED THAT IT IS NOT ON THE WATER AND SEWER SYSTEM AT THIS TIME, BUT IT IS IN THE FRANCHISE AREA, AND THE WATER WILL GO DOWN TO THE SCHOOL AT 43RD. COMMISSIONER SCHMUCKER NOTED THAT THE DEVELOPER CAN'T PURSUE THIS MATTER WITHOUT THE PROPER ZONING. COMMISSIONER SIEBERT FELT THAT IT IS APPROPRIATE TO PROJECT A CHANGE IN DENSITY FOR A CERTAIN AREA ON THE MASTER PLAN, BUT THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT IS MULTI -FAMILY, WHICH CANNOT PUT IN SEPTIC TANKS AND MUST BE ON A SEWER SYSTEM, AND HE FELT TO GRANT THE REZONING WOULD BE TANTAMOUNT TO SAYING THIS IS WHERE THE AREA WILL GROW. HE FURTHER NOTED THAT THE BOARD HAS TO DETERMINE IF THERE IS ADDITIONAL CAPACITY. CHAIRMAN WODTKE ASKED ABOUT SEWER ALLOCATION, AND ATTORNEY COLLINS STATED THAT A DEFINITE SEWER ALLOCATION HAS NOT BEEN MADE, BUT HE BELIEVED THERE IS SUFFICIENT AVAILABLE TO MAKE AN ALLOCATION COMPARABLE TO THE WATER SERVICE. 30 J `fit' pie z 1
