E. STAFF ANALYSIS:
John Sewall, owner of the 2.2 Acre property at 18303 Denny Road and
18900/18904 Kanis Road, is requesting to rezone the property from "R-2"
Single Family District to "C-1" Neighborhood Commercial District. The
rezoning is proposed for future commercial development of the property.
The property is located several hundred feet west of the Kanis
Road/Denny Road intersection. There is one (1) single family residence
located on the property which fronts Denny Road and two (2) single family
homes on the property fronting Kanis Road. There is a nonconforming
small office use located in an accessory building along Denny Road.
Single family residences on large lots are located to the north (across
Denny Road), south (across Kanis Road) and to the west. There is
undeveloped property immediately east of the site, at the intersection of
K

Kanis and Denny Roads. There is undeveloped C-1 property located to
the northeast as well as undeveloped R-2 zoned property in the general
area.
The City's Future Land Use Plan designates the portion of the property
fronting Kanis Road as Neighborhood Commercial. The portion which
fronts Denny Road is designated as Single Family. A staff -driven Land
Use Plan Amendment to change the northern portion of the property to
Neighborhood Commercial is a separate item on this agenda.
Staff is supportive of the requested C-1 zoning. Staff feels that the
request is reasonable. The City's Future Land Use Plan currently shows
Neighborhood Commercial at the intersection of Kanis Road and Denny
Road, as well at the intersection of Kanis Road and Stewart Road.
Expanding the Neighborhood Commercial to include the northern portion
of this property is a fairly minor change. A rezoning of this property to C-1
will allow the continued use of the property as single family residential, as
well as legitimizing the nonconforming small office use along the Denny
Road frontage. Staff believes the proposed rezoning will have no adverse
impact on the general area.
F. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the requested C-1 rezoning.
PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION:

was made. The motion passed by a vote of 9 ayes, 0 nays and 2 absent. The
application was approved.
