sites.

Primarv Issues to Consider
. How has the Comprehensive Plan designated the subject area?
The Comprehensive Plan has designated the site as Industrial. There is a requirement that the
Comprehensive Plan and zoning be consistent. With the proposed zoning change, the zoning
and the Comprehensive Plan designation will be consistent.
. What is the difference between the Industrial and Business Park designations?
The primary use for Business Park zoning is an office use. The primary uses in an industrial
zone are warehousing, manufacturing, and storage.
. Should the 106 Jackson Avenue designation be changed?
Because Opus has purchased 106 Jackson Avenue and will be incorporating the site into the
larger site, it is logical to rezone the site to Business Park and amend the Comprehensive
Plan to Business Park.
. What was the discussion at the Zoning and Planning meeting?
Ms. Anderson stated that amending the Comprehensive Plan was necessary when the
property is rezoned. Dave Menke, representing Opus Corporation, reviewed the master plan
with the Commission. Pete Stiehm of 307 Burnes Drive appeared at the public hearing and
was concemed about the traffic on Second Street.
Alternatives
1. Approve the Comprehensive Plan amendment. By approving the Comprehensive Plan
amendment, the site can be redeveloped.
2. Deny the Comprehensive Plan amendment. By denying the Comprehensive Plan
amendment, the site can not be redeveloped. If the zoning is changed and the
Comprehensive Plan amendment is not approved, the zoning and Comprehensive
Plan amendment will not be consistent.
3. Continue for further information. If the City Council indicates that further
information is needed, the item should be continued.
