MINUTES City Council Jan. 25, 1989 Rezoning Frattalone Property (Cont.) Fahey stated that his concern was that there would be enough property on South Owasso so that a high - quality I -P development would be possible. Fahey suggested that the depth of I -P zoning on South Owasso be greater. The City Planner agreed that the larger the I -P piece of property, the larger the development that could occur. However, the Planner pointed out that the size of the I -P parcel proposed by Mr. Frattalone meets the minimum standards of the I -P District. Scalze agreed that the I -P parcel should be larger. Frattalone pointed out that the size parcel he is proposing is approximately one acre. Frattalone pointed out that this is larger than the lots in Ryan Industrial Park. Frattalone stated that he would like to keep the I -P parcel as small as possible so that his I -1 property is larger. Frattalone outlined the uses that he constructed his existing building to accomodate. Frattalone pointed out that whatever business occupies his building, it will most likely, be a business that required a great deal of outdoor storage. Frattalone pointed out the poor soils and low land that existed on his property and the extensive soil corrections that were necessary in order that he could develop the building he did. Frattalone reported that the current I -P zoning of his property cuts the resale value. Frattalone pointed out that he was previously located on Park Street, however, due to the zoning of that property, he was forced to relocate. Frattalone pointed out that he is now unable to sell the building and he cannot find renters for it. Frattalone stated that he did not want to be faced with a similar situation at his current location. Frattalone also outlined the site improvement which he has made which are in excess of Code requirements. Fahey asked how much further Frattalone was willing to move the I -P property line. Fahey stated that he would like to see a larger I -P lot. Fahey also stated that he would not like to see a lot split between the Frattalone building that would be zoned I -1 and would downgrade the type of development that the City is trying to achieve in this area. Fahey suggested that another 100 feet of depth on the I -P lot would be a good compromise. The City Planner reported that another 100 feet would increase the lot size by about 3 /4ths of an acre. The Planner pointed out that before a building could be developed between Frattalone's existing building and the I -P lot, the City would have to grant a lot split. Fahey asked if Frattalone would be agreeable that as a condition of approval of a rezoning, that no lot split would be granted for the property between the existing building and the I -P lot. Frattalone suggested that if a lot split were ever requested, that the Page -12-
