The requested rezoning is the result of enforcement action by the City's Zoning Office. The owner of the property located a bail bonds office on the site prior to receiving proper zoning. A notice was issued instructing the owner to initiate a rezoning request or discontinue the business. The property in question is one of few parcels on the north side of Roosevelt west of Woodrow that is still zoned for residential use. West of Booker all the land fronting Roosevelt Road is zoned either "C-3" or "I-2." The block between Woodrow and Booker is the only one with "R-3" and "R-4" lots facing Roosevelt Road. Based on the prevailing zoning pattern on the north side of Roosevelt, the requested zoning is compatible with the area. 2. This site is two residential lots with three structures on it. Only one of the buildings is being used for the bail bonds office. 3. Dedication of additional right-of-way will be required for both Roosevelt and Woodrow because the existing right-of-ways are deficient. Roosevelt is classified as a principal arterial on the Master Street Plan. October 30, 1984 Item No. 7 - Continued 4. Engineering has determined that the street improvements will be necessary for Woodrow because it is a very substandard street. No other adverse comments have been received from the reviewing agencies as of this writing. 5. There are no legal issues. 6. There is no documented neighborhood position on the site. 7o The recently adopted Stephens School Plan identifies the location for commercial uses, and the "C-3" request is supported by the staff.

Mr. Miller agreed to dedicate any needed right-of-way to the City at the public hearing. The Commission voted to recommend approval of the request as filed. The vote - 8 ayes, 0 noes and 3 absent.
