There was considerable discussion on the issue, with Official Rose clarifying that the Planning Commission held an informational hearing. Attorney Meyers added that a public hearing was required for a rezoning, but not for a development proposal. Councilmember Forslund added that the Planning Commission considered the proposal as a final site plan, and that they felt the B -3 to B -2 rezoning would protect the area if the Bank ever moved, but that the proposal was allowable in a B -3 zone. Mayor McCarty pointed out that a public hearing would be held in the future, when the applicant subdivides the property for the future development. Steve Winnick, attorney for Sahara Investment, reviewed the proposal and pointed out that the developer has tried to cooperate in every way.
