n MEMO TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Clerk-Administrat DATE: March 15, 1984 SUBJECT: COMPREHENSIVE REZONINGS As you will recall, Engineering/Planning Technician Frank Kampel submitted a memorandum to you dated February 16, 1984 outlining staff recommended procedures for accomplishing the comprehensive rezonings recommended to the City Council by the Planning Commission as a result of their review of the City's Zoning Map in conjunction with the new City Zoning Ordinance and Comprehensive Plan. At that time you authorized staff to mail notices to 15 properties in the City that were recommended by the Planning Commission for rezoning to the existing use of the property which would result in a "down zoning" of the property. These letters were sent to the property owners by certified mail with an explanation of the proposed rezoning and a request that they return a postcard to the City within two weeks indicating their objection to the rezoning or no objection, and if the card was not returned within two weeks the City would rezone the property with no further notice to them. Of the 15 notices sent, the City received two objections and one letter was returned as nondeliverable. Staff would recommend that individual public hearings be held on these three pieces of property, along with other controversial rezonings,and those parcels for which the owners had no objection or no response to our mailing was received be rezoned as noncontroversial rezonings where no notice be sent to the property owners but publication of the hearing date and time be made in the City's official newspaper. Attached for your review is a listing of the properties to be rezoned indicating three types of notice for rezonings. The different types are as follows: Notice A - Noncontroversial rezonings where no notice will be sent to the individual property owner but notice will be published in the City's official newspaper. Notice B - Controversial rezonings with notice being mailed to the affected property owner in addition to all property owners within 350 feet and an official notice published in the City's official newspaper. Notice D - No notice will be sent for rezonings within this category as the properties proposed to be rezoned under this notice are owned by public entities. RECOMMENDATION: Staff would recommend that the Council take the following action at your March 26th Council Meeting by Consent Agenda to set public hearings for Notice A and Notice D rezonings which would be held at your April 9th Council Meeting at 7:40 p.m. and 7:50 p.m., respectively.
