CONSIDERATION OF REZONING APPLICATION FOR ARCHIE'S RESTAURANT (MONTPETPI) Terry Montpetit requested approval of a rezoning and a review of a concept plan for property located at 13891 Forest Blvd. North to allow for the development of a bar and restaurant. The Planning Commission considered this item at a public hearing on December 8, 2005. Other than the applicant and the property owner, there were four people who spoke at the hearing. The comments from the residents listed concerns about property values, bar traffic, noise, and trespassing. Other residents expressed a desire to see the property redeveloped, and one person wanted to see a bar and restaurant developed on the property. The PC reviewed the application against the City's policies for rezoning applications, and recommended denial of the application for the reasons stated in the staff report. CD Director Bryan Bear provided Council with a PowerPoint presentation, which very clearly presented the zoning history of the subject property, what is allowed in the proposed rezoning request, and how a rezoning would impact surrounding properties. Terry Montpetit addressed Council stating how he planned on renovating the site, and property owner Len Minich expressed his concern that he had not been notified that he lost his "nonconforming status". City staff recommended the Council adopt the resolution and findings of fact to deny the rezoning application.
