29 Demont is located in the 4th District of the City's Land Use Plan. District 4 <br />is comprised of a mix of fully developed neighborhoods. Residential uses include a <br />range of single family neighborhoods, twin home areas, townhouses, and multiple <br />family development. According to the Land Use Plan the focus for the residential <br />components of this district will be on property improvement and maintenance. The <br />City has been active in participating with the owners in these areas to facilitate <br />improvements and maintenance projects to ensure continued success of these <br />neighborhoods. See Exhibit B. The City's interest aligns with the Vangs' interest to <br />improve the 29 Demont property which furthers the City's goals. The Vangs with <br />their rezoning request is not seeking to make any physical exterior changes or <br />developments to the existing property structure and /or land. Approving the zoning <br />request will not injure or detract the use of the neighboring property or from the <br />character of this neighborhood. The duplex has existed for more than 37 years. <br />In the neighboring area there are there other duplexes that supports the <br />Vangs request. 131 Twin Lake Boulevard appears to be in a R1 zone. 69 Demont <br />and 75 Demont are duplexes in District 4 in a R2 zone. There is also a single family <br />home and a multi -unit near by such as 2611 Ruth and 2619 Ruth. This goes to show <br />that District 4 indeed is a mixed -use district and approving the Vangs request would <br />not compromise the City's Comprehensive Plan. See attached Exhibit C <br />Furthermore, maintaining the property as a duplex will generate tax revenue <br />to the City because the property will be occupied. The Vangs will renovate the <br />property. The tenants and the Vangs will preserve and protect the property's value <br />and in return help the neighboring property's values. <br />4 <br />6 <br />
