I I I Council Meeting Minutes October 26, 1993 PageS Council Business. continued Locke noted that the only area in the City zoned B-4 is the downtown area. The B-4 district allows a variety of uses, but these uses require a special use permit. Setback requirements are much more flexible in the downtown area than in other districts because the intent is to create a sense of downtown. Benke noted that several years ago when the City went through its rezoning process, the downtown area was given special consideration to insure that a comprehensive plan was developed. Dan Dahms, 674 - 4th Avenue. asked how many former businesses will participate in the project. Mr. Ordway has spoke to about four owners regarding interest in the project. Benke noted that staff is keeping the business owners up to date on the development activities. Motion by Gunderman, seconded by Rebelein, to APPROVE LP~284, SUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING CONDmONS: 1.

Motion Carried. Mattila presented the rezoning of a R-3B, Multiple Family Residential. to R-3BI, Interim Use District, and an Interim Use Permit to locate an office in an existing single family home at 321 Old Highway 8. To be considered for a rezoning to R~3BI, the site must be currently zoned R-3B. be on a collector road, located adjacent to commercial or industrial districts and be at least 12,500 sq. ft. The site meets those standards, and the Planning Commission recommends approval. The R-3BI District requires the interim use to meet R~3B sign standards, proposes a parking and landscape plan, complies with City parking ratio requirements, and operates only between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m. Gunderman opposes the application and asked if a date or event has been specified by which the use must be termin:rted. Mattila reviewed the events which would automatically terminate the Interim use Permit. Gunderman asked if relocation costs would be applicable in regards to termination of the Interim Use Permit. LeFevere said the resolution outlines that relocation expenses be no greater than if the property continued as a single family home. Gunderman considers this is a step backwards in relation to the concerns expressed in regards to the City's housing stock.
