REZONING- CONDOS
Proposed Action.
Staff recommends the following motion: Move to adopt Resolution 05-68, recommending
approval of Ordinance 05-952, rezoning the area north of the Eisenhower Community Center
from Institutional to R-5 for first reading.
At the Zoning and Planning meeting, \.1r. Paul moved and Ms. Halverson seconded a motion
to adopt Resolution RZ04-21, recommending approval of Ordinance 05-952, rezoning the
area north of the Eisenhower Community Center from Institutional to R-5. The motion was
approved unanimously.
Overview.
Mike Halley, the applicant, is proposing to construct a 14-16 unit condo building on the
property just west of the condo building Mr. Halley is constructing north of the United
Methodist Church. The proposed building will be located on property that was owned by the
School District on the northeast side of the Eisenhower Community Site. The proposed
building would be four stories and have underground and surface parking
The current zoning of the site is Institutional and the applicant is proposing a rezoning to R-
5. The school property will remain Institutional.
Primary Issues to Consider.
. What is the Comprehensive Plan designation, and what is the zoning of the
subject site?
. What does the R-5 zoning allow?
. Should the site be rezoned to R-5?
. What was the discussion at the Zoning and Planning meeting?

Primarv Issues to Consider.
. What is the Comprehensive Plan designation?
The Comprehensive Plan has designated the site as Institutional. The applicant has applied
for a Comprehensive Plan amendment. The new designation, if approved, would be High
Density Residential.
. What does the R-5 zoning allow?
The R-5 zoning allows multiple family buildings with a density of one unit for every 1000
square feet of area. The site could have 5 I units. The applicant is proposing approximately
14-16 units.
. Should the site be rezoned to R-5?
In looking at the area, the only logical zoning change would be to a multi-family zoning.
Othcr than an Institutional zoning, the site would not be a commercial, industrial or a single-
family area. To the north is the golf course, to the east condos, and to the west and east
Hopkins Community Center.
. What was the discussion at the Zoning and Planning meeting?
Ms. Anderson stated that the property will have to rezoned from Institutional to R-5 for the
condo development to proceed. No one appeared at the public hearing regarding this item.
Alternatives.
1. Approve the rezoning. By approving the rezoning, the applicant will be able to construct
the condos as proposed.
2. Dcny the rezoning. By denying the rezoning, the applicant will not be able to construct
the condos as proposed. If the City Council considers this alternative, findings will have
to be identified that support this alternative.
3. Continue for fmiher infonnation. If the City Council indicates that further information is
needed, the item should be continued.
