Old Business
A. Public /Institutional District
City Planner Richards provided a brief overview of the subject and his report. Commission discussion
ensued as to issues such as separate park zoning district wherein it was noted that there does not appear
to be such existence of this type of zoning in use by other city's and that the reasoning for this may have
to do with legal issues. City Planner Richards will investigate this issue further. Additional discussion
was held regarding existing city owned parks being noted on zoning maps as city park areas and the
possibility of such a parks designation serving as a guideline for developers.
Discussion of public feedback options was pursued by the Commission and City Planner Richards
questioned them as to items related to particular uses within the proposed district. Community
Development Director discussed with the Commission the concept of two zoning maps for the city. One
map would indicate current land use and the other envisioned land use.
A public hearing for further discussion of this matter is to be held by the Planning Commission at its
meeting of July 13, 2000.
