These zones require <br />some careful review and revisions to make sure that the <br />permitted, conditional and permitted accessory uses are <br />compatible with the current and future business districts in the <br />city. <br />Reviewing and revising these districts can guarantee that the <br />appropriate controls are in place to keep the land uses <br />compatible within each district, as well as compatible with the <br />adjacent residential properties. The close proximity between <br />residential and commercial land uses makes this a critical issue <br />to assure neighborhood quality on into the future. <br />The Hoisington Koegler Group submitted a proposal for <br />out these activities for not more than $2,000.
