With this direction, a windshield <br />survey of the study area was performed. The area in question is <br />zoned I -1, Light Industrial, although there are a mixture of land <br />uses existing. These include: industrial uses; single family <br />residential uses; and North Star Estates Mobile Home Park. This <br />report will analyze existing conditions in regard to possible <br />rezoning of the area as a whole, or in part. We will attempt to <br />establish components regarding the appropriateness and <br />ramifications of rezoning. <br />ANALYSIS <br />The study area, as mentioned previously, is located in the <br />northwestern part of the City along either side of South Owasso <br />Boulevard between Rice Street and Country Drive. This study <br />pertains to properties served by South Owasso Boulevard and <br />properties served by Yorkton Boulevard, south of Owasso. <br />This area has a variety of incompatible land uses. The area is <br />zoned for light industrial uses. There are several single family <br />residential uses plus a large mobile home park that are legally <br />existing nonconforming uses. <br />Page 47 <br />4601 excelsior blvd., ste. 410, minneapolis, mn 55416 (612) 925 -9420 <br />
