1111 AREA BETWEEN TYLER AND HIGHWAY 169
Location: #12 on previous pages
Currently Zoned: R -2
Current Use: single family /townhomes /two family
Comprehensive
Plan: LDR
Permitted Uses: single family
Lot Area: 1 unit per 3500 square feet
12.45 units per acre
Site size: approximately 35 acres
Units added: 435 units
Surrounding west Highway 169
uses: east parking lot /park
north multiple family
south industrial
This area is consists mostly of single family homes and two
family homes. It would seem appropriate to rezone the area
west of Van Buren to R -1 -A because of all the two family
dwellings in the area. However, the area east of Van. Buren
is almost all single family homes. I would recommend
rezoning this area to R -1 -C, which is the zoning to the east
of this property.

AREA ADJACENT TO WEST SIDE BUSINESS PARK
Location: #11 on previous pages
Currently Zoned: R -3
Current Use: single family and multiple family
Comprehensive
Plan: LDR /MDR
Permitted Uses: single family /multiple family
Lot Area: 1 unit per 2600 square feet
16.75 units per acre
Site size: approximately 2.6 acres*
Units added: 43 units
Surrounding west office /warehouse
uses: east single family
north industrial
south multiple /single family
This area was probably zoned multiple family to buffer the
industrial zoned area from the single family. Now that the
industrial site is built, the industrial site has .provided
buffering on their site. Also, the building that was
constructed is a office /warehouse type industrial building.
I would recommend rezoning the single family homes along 7th
Avenue to R -1 -B, which is the zoning for the Park Valley
neighborhood. The area along 6th Street South is a
combination of multiple family and single family. In this
area I would recommend a rezoning to R -2. An R -2 zoning is
consist with the area to the south.
*this area only includes the single family homes along 7th
Avenue.

Permitted Uses: 3 story multiple dwelling
multiple dwelling
Lot Area: 1 unit per 1000 -1600 square feet
Site size: approximately 16 acres
Units added: 696 -435
Surrounding west multiple family residential
uses: east multiple family residential
411 north multiple family residential
south multiple family residential
Although the site is surrounded by multiple family and there
have been some problems with noise, it seems to function at
this location. I would changing to a industrial
designation.
