Ms. Moore-Sykes 2 indicated that there will be nothing built over the easement, that it is merely a land-locked 3 easement, and the surveyors will file once the City vacates it. 4 Commissioner Gondorchin indicated that as long as the City doesn't need the easement for 5 emergency access, the vacation should be granted. 6 Motion by Bergstrom, seconded by Franzese, to concur with the City Council in recommending 7 the proposed vacation of easement as it appears to serve no purpose. 8 Motion carried unanimously. 9 C. Permitted Conditional Uses - Commercial Zoned Districts 10 Ms. Moore-Sykes reported to the Commission that because of the apparent inappropriateness of 11 the Solid Rock Church in a commercial district, the City Council has requested the Planning 12 Commission review permitted conditional uses for all of the zoning districts. She continued a 13 recommendation from the Planning Commission would be made to the City Council, and upon 14 three readings of the proposed ordinance change, the change will become effective. 'P5 Chair Bergstrom inquired if the Commission should review and make a recommendation now, or 16 would a subgroup be more appropriate. 17 Commissioner Gondorchin suggested Staff provide a list with the districts, permanent uses, and 18 other information, and the Planning Commission will make a recommendation based on that. He 19 continued that he would volunteer to be part of the recommendation group. 20 Commissioner Makowske indicated that uses refer to either a commercial use or a specific use, 21 and that a church may be appropriate in a commercial use but not a retail use. 22 Chair Bergstrom indicated a subgroup comprised of himself, Commissioner Gondorchin and 23 Commissioner Delmonico, will make a recommendation by the next regular City Council meeting. 24 D.
