Rezoning the subject property to General Industrial would make it difficult to adequately <br />buffer the adjacent residential homes. <br />2. The City's General Industrial district allows a variety of high intensity uses that could <br />have adverse impacts on nearby residential properties. <br />3. Rezoning the subject property to General Industrial may result in greater tree removal <br />than if the property were developed with residential uses, because industrial <br />developments generally require larger building pads and large parking lot areas. <br />4. The physical characteristics of the property, including the location of wetland, floodplain, <br />and steep slopes, are not conducive to large industrial buildings. <br />ADOPTED by the City Council on January 7, 2002 <br />1 <br />�01? <br />ATTEST: <br />Mary Creager, City Cler <br />
