Dear Larry and Diana,
I appreciate both of you taking the time to meet with me Friday February 28, 2003 regarding the proposed
Rezone of your property (Parcel # 87072-00-005). During this meeting, you brought it to my attention of
past discussions with the City and clear understanding that this property should remain zoned Industrial
(I) and the proposed Rezone to Low Density Mixed -Use Neighborhood (LMN) conflicts with your
original expectations.
As the City co -project manager, along with the County in developing the East Mulberry Corridor Plan, we
made every effort to properly notify and encourage participation of property owners within the study area
throughout the planning process. As a result of numerous public meetings and other outreach
opportunities, both the City and County jointly adopted the Plan in September 2002. The
recommendation of the Plan, along with a concurrent recommendation of the City Structure Plan Map,
showed LMN land use designation for your property.
Since this property is located outside of the Plan study area, you were not included in the mailing
distribution list. Furthermore, you informed me that you also were not aware of the public meetings and
Hearings held in conjunction with the Plan that were advertised.
In listening to your concerns, and assessing the situation, I will remove this parcel from the Rezone
Petition and agenda item for the Planning and Zoning Board Hearing (3-6-03) and City Council Hearing
(3-18-03). The existing Industrial Zoning will remain. As mentioned in our meeting, a follow-up
amendment to the East Mulberry Corridor Plan and City Structure Plan Map will need to be adopted to
change the land use designation from LMN to I. I anticipate this adjustment will take place later this year
in order to package other changes together.
I hope this summary reflects your understanding of our discussion.
Sincerely
Pete ray
City Planner
