If the comprehensive plan amendment is approved, the zoning will be in compliance <br />with the comprehensive plan. <br /> <br />2. The buildings and site are arranged to accommodate the proposed use in regards to <br />parking, access, and building placement. The proposed zoning classification is <br />appropriate for the property because there are no topographic, environmental, or <br />cultural limitations of the site. <br /> <br />3. The property is adjacent to and is accessible from 159th Street, which is designated as <br />a Minor Collector in the 2040 Comprehensive Plan. The property can be adequately <br />served with the accesses proposed. The property is served by city sewer and water. <br /> <br />4. The property is immediately adjacent to commercially-zoned property, and across <br />159th Street from residentially-zoned property. The proposed zoning classification <br />will buffer noncompatible uses with the street between them, thus minimizing the <br />impact on neighboring properties. The access is proposed on 159th Street which is <br />classified as a Minor Collector road in the 2040 Comprehensive Plan. 159th Street is <br />designed to accommodate and has the capacity for additional traffic. The proposed <br />zoning will not have unreasonable negative impacts on the neighboring properties. <br /> <br />5. No floodplain areas are proposed to be impacted with the project. <br />
