Staff Presentation was read by Aaron Maldonado: The subject property has been used as single family residential property. This property is zoned (R1) Single Family Residential District. The proposed development of this property is to allow for the property to be platted as one lot for the construction of a commercial site. This development will be required to submit engineered construction plans and will also be required to final plat; the City has agreed that these matters may be part of the construction and platting review process. The proposed request complies with the Future Land Use Plan. Commissioner Sears noted that all the lots appear not to comply with the future land use map. Development Services Director agreed, but made the recommendation to approve as proposed since the majority of the property did comply. After no more comments, Commissioner Gibson closed the public hearing at 6:40 pm. D.
