NEED OR DEMAND The owner seeks this change in recognition of a modification of development plans within the St. Charles Subdivision. More land has been acquired which can be incorporated into this development, and another "MF -12" District to the east is proposed for downzoning to "R-2." 2. EFFECT ON MUNICIPAL PLANS The proposal would appear to be compatible with municipal plans and the development scheme established for this project. 3. EFFECT ON ENVIRONS No adverse environmental impacts are expected. 4. NEIGHBORHOOD POSITION A few neighboring owners have expressed an interest in this proposal, but staff cannot judge the position of the neighbors based upon these contacts. 5. PUBLIC SERVICES No adverse comments have been received. 6. UTILITIES No adverse comments have been received. 7. PUBLIC FINANCES No fiscal impact is expected. 8. LEGAL/REASONABLE A slight upward shift in density at this location seems appropriate because of its relationship -to two collector streets, particularly with the downward shift at the eastern location. 9. STANDARDS OF QUALITY No standards of quality have been addressed. July 29, 1980 Item 12 - Continued 10. TRAFFIC AND RIGHT-OF-WAY St. Charles Boulevard and Parkway Place Drive are collector streets on the Master Street Plan. Both will be constructed at the time of development and the rights-of-way will be acquired through platting. AMAT.v-QTS: Staff believes that the proposed changes in the zoning pattern within St. Charles Subdivsion are appropriate. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval. COMMISSION ACTION: The applicant was present, and there were no objectors. One neighbor was present who asked several questions regarding the proposed rezoning. The question came up from the Planning Commission relative to the proposal by the Bailey Corporation to downzone the property previously zoned "MF -12" to the east of this property, and there was a motion to defer to August 26. The motion failed on a vote of 2 ayes, 5 noes, 3 absent and 1 abstention. (Ron Tabor abstained.) A second motion to approve the application, conditioned upon the filing of an application to downzone the eastern property was made. That motion failed -- 5 ayes, 2 noes, 3 absent and 1 abstention. (Ron Tabor abstained.) The matter was automatically deferred to August 26.
