Staff has since considered the situation along this part of East Skyway in much more detail,
in extensive discussions with owners, neighbors, and the County. These discussions have
been prompted by issues related to an existing business at 209 East Skyway and by the recent
annexation process in 2007. Staff finds that the properties along Skyway do not reflect the
character of the Farming or Urban Estate designations, but bear closer resemblance to both
the commercial uses in the area and the existing residential neighborhood (which is more
dense than Urban Estate) to the north and east. This Ordinance, unanimously adopted on
First Reading on December 18, 2007, rezones the property located at 209 East Skyway to a
combination of Commercial on the west 2/3 of the property and Low Density Residential on
the east 1 /3 of the property. It also rezones 225 East Skyway Drive to Low Density Mixed -
Use Neighborhood and the City -owned parcel east of Claire Court to the Open Lands, Parks
and Stream Corridor designation.
