NOV 17 199-7 BOOK 88 Gr 58 <br />Commissioner Bird anticipated that the DCA will question why <br />we are rezoning this little corner when there is such a vast amount <br />of residential behind it. <br />Commissioner Adams recalled that the P&Z went over this very <br />carefully as to how this property could be used before making a 4-1 <br />recommendation for CG. <br />Chairman Eggert wondered if maybe we should be looking at it <br />on a broader scope in the interest of some flexibility. <br />Director Keating noted that the tract to the east is large <br />enough to develop residential and we don't anticipate a problem <br />there. In addition, this does address an existing condition that <br />has been there for awhile. <br />Chairman Eggert opened the Public Hearing and asked if anyone <br />wished to be heard in this matter. <br />Attorney Michael O'Haire, representing the applicant, noted <br />that the graphics do not show that immediately adjacent there is a <br />non -conforming use, a grove service and a heavy equipment barn. On <br />paper it may look inconsistent, but on the ground it is not <br />inconsistent. <br />Commissioner Macht cautioned that we might be painting <br />ourselves into a corner if we don't take a more comprehensive look <br />at the individual properties along the arteries, especially if we <br />have flip-flopped back and forth from one to another. <br />Chairman Eggert agreed that we should take a broader look in <br />this area because of 53rd Street. She emphasized that we must look <br />at what is going to happen there and on the north side. <br />Commissioner Bird agreed that it is going to be a major <br />intersection and probably will warrant some detailed studies. <br />However, at this point we have the big question out there on <br />whether or not the shopping mall will go forward. If that fails, <br />we really need to go back and readdress that area. <br />Director Keating advised that the shopping center developer <br />has to submit a site plan by May, 1993 and either have the site <br />plan approved or start construction by December, 1993. <br />There being no others who wished to be heard, the Chairman <br />closed the Public Hearing. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Macht, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Adams, the Board unanimously adopted <br />Resolution 92-211, approving transmittal of a land <br />use amendment to the IRC Comprehensive Plan to the <br />DCA for their review. <br />54 <br />
