STAFF ANALYSIS:
The Aldersgate rezoning is back before the City to clarify
the status of several outparcels. In February and March of
1984, when the initial request was being acted on by the
City, the application included some tracts of land that were
not owned or under contract by the three principle parties,
First Federal, Aldersgate and E.R.C. In May of this year,
First Federal sent a letter to the City indicating that they
had been able to secure commitments for some of the parcels
and requested direction to resolve the issue. After
reviewing the situation, the City Attorney's Office
recommend that another zoning request be filed excluding the
various uncommitted outparcels.
Staff supports the rezoning proposals and points out that
the request still conforms to the I-430 District Plan.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the rezoning as filed.

PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION:
The applicant, Tom Buford, was present. There was one
objector in attendance. Mr. Buford reviewed the history of
the previous rezoning and the various land swaps between the
three principal owners. He also -described the change to the
Master Street Plan for Aldersgate Road. Mr. Buford then
discussed the initial rezoning application and the problems
with the out parcels, and he said that the rezoning action
would not preclude access to any of those tracts. There was
a long discussion about the rezoning and the status of the
out parcels. Leslie Rogers then addressed the Commission.
He said that he represented ten of the -out parcels and that
he was not 100 percent opposed to the rezoning. Mr. Rogers
discussed a number of items at length, including the
relocation of the Aldersgate Road alignment. There was a
long discussion, and it was determined that the previous
rezoning was valid as originally approved, including the
"OS" reclassifications for the out parcels. Mr. Rogers
spoke again and said he had no objections to the original
rezoning but that the status of the lots in Tracts 5 and 6
needed to be clarified. He indicated that he did not want
the lots to be zoned "OS." There was a long discussion
about the out parcels and rezoning four of the lots from
"OS" to "R-2." Henrietta Smith, owner of two lots, then
addressed the Commission. She asked some questions and had
several points clarified. There were additional comments
made by the various parties. A motion was made recommending
approval of the rezoning as filed excluding the out parcels.
The motion passed by a vote of 7 ayes, 1 no, 2 absent and
1 abstention (Fred Perkins). A second motion was made
giving Mr. Rogers up to 90 days to negotiate with Aldersgate
for the sale of his lots or to file for a rezoning to "R-2"
with the filing fees and notification of property owners
being waived. The motion was approved by a vote of 8 ayes,
0 noes, 2 absent, and 1 abstention (Fred Perkins).
