III Explanation/Summar_y(attach_supplement sheets_as necessary.) - SUMMARY; Based on discussion at the May 1, 1995 City Council Work Session, Staff has drafted the attached Ordinance for consideration by the City Council. For review: Larry Beach has made application for a Rezoning of the property located at 7305 Knollwood Drive. The property is currently zoned B-1, Neighborhood Commercial - the applicant is requesting an R-2 , Single and Two Family Residential classification in order to support his plans for a twinhome on the property. The existing structure located on the property (a closed Tom Thumb convenience store) would be removed in the event the rezoning is approved. Chapter 1125. 01 Subdivision 1 (e) of the Mounds View Municipal Code identifies those factors upon which the City Council should base its decision relative to any rezoning request. Those factors, and an analysis of their relevance, are as follows: 1) Relationship to Municipal Comprehensive Plan The Comprehensive Plan in its current form identifies this parcel as neighborhood commercial. However, discussions held at both the Planning Commission and City Council levels within the past three (3) years have focused on reclassifying this property to residential. 2) Geographical area involved The parcel is bounded on the South and West sides by County Road H2 and Knollwood Drive respectively. The North and East boundaries abut property zoned R-2 . cI 6 P 1 rrington, Community Development Coordinator RECOMMENDATION;
