There are no apparent legal issues associated with this request. 6. There is no documented neighborhood opposition concerning the site. The previous rezoning action on the property was a conversion adjustment from "I-2" to "C-3" in March 1981. 7. The staff views this request as being compatible with the long-term plans for the area and the use being appropriate for the location. The building is situated on the front portion of the tract and the rear is a gravel area so the residential uses adjacent to the back half of the site should not be impacted. There appears to be adequate separation between the single family structures and the property in question. A large residential development to the northwest is separated from the site by the Missouri Pacific Railroad tracks. STAFF RECOMMENDATION° The staff recommends approval of the request. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: The applicant and Jim Van Hook, agent, were present. The Commission discussed the case briefly. A motion was made to recommend approval of the application as filed. The motion passed by a vote of 10 ayes, 0 noes and 1 absent.
