The Van Dyke property is currently zoned BC (business commercial) and R-3 (M) (residential medium
density), which allows for a total of 22 housing units. The request for a change in the comprehensive land
use plan is denied based on the following findings:
1. The land use change would be inconsistent with the City's comprehensive plan and inconsistent with
the plan's general intent and purpose for lower density.
2. The land use change would compound the already existing density ofthe surrounding area.
3. The Applicant failed to present evidence that the proposed development is proper and consistent with
the City's goals, objectives and policies for such a land use change.
4. The public testimony presented and introduced indicated that the proposed development would present
a health, safety and welfare issue if the land use change occurs.
5. There is need for more information on whether or not the Applicant can satisfy and minimize the
proposed conflict in land uses.
6. The Applicant did not provide sufficient information as to whether the land use change would not
threaten the property values, health or welfare ofthe adjoining property owners.
Councilmember Wasiluk moved to approve the comprehensive land use plan change, conditional
use permit and proiect plans with the condition of22 units maximum.
Motion died due to a lack of a second to the motion.
With the Applicants consent for a continuance and a waiver of the sixty day rule, Councilmember
Koppen moved to table the Conditional Use Permit until the April 28th City Council Meeting to
allow further investigation between staff and the developer to answer some ofthe questions raised
by the Councilmembers as to the economic viability ofthe proiect related to density.
