Sigmont, Jr., on East Lanark Street I'd like to open this Public Hearing and start with the staff comment -- staff report. McKinnon: Thank you, Mr. Chairman, Members of the Commission if I could direct your attention, again, to the overhead. The bolded areas are the areas that we are talking about annexing tonight, 5.41 acres, as you referenced earlier. The property is currently zoned M-1 in the County, which is essentially an industrial zone. They are requesting an I-L zone, just like the property that surrounds those lots that you see that are highlighted. This is astaff-prepared annexation. Staff supports this annexation. We are annexing a piece of property that has services available to it by the city. It's an enclave piece that is currently County that should be city, in our opinion, and I'd ask if there is any questions. Borup: I think none. It seems like last time that property was before us I asked a question of why they just didn't annex the whole thing at the same time.. I don't remember what the answer was, but maybe we will find out. Is the applicant here or their representative? I guess not. McKinnon: This is staff prepared, so t guess I'm the applicant. Borup: Okay. Well, we got your report, so any questions of any Commissioners? Shreeve: No. Borup: Well, maybe -did this start like last year for this request? McKinnon: Actually, the request came in just this year. Borup: Okay. McKinnon: Well, this request itself. It may have been in the works for longer, but the request for this staff prepared just came in this year. Borup: Okay. Thank you. Anyone here from the audience to testify on this application? Seeing none - Zaremba: Mr. Chairman, I move that the Public Hearing on Item 5 be closed. Mathes: I will second that. Borup: Motion and second. All in favor? Any opposed?

Item 6: Pubiic Hearing: AZ 02-018 Request for annexation and zoning of 5 acres from RUT to L-O zones far Bair Properly Annexation by Donn Reiswig - 3975 East Franklin Road: Borup: The next item is Public Hearing AZ 02-018, request for annexation and zoning of five acres from RUT to L-O zones for Bair Property Annexation at 3975 East Franklin Road. I'd like to open this Public Hearing and start with the staff report. McKinnon: Thank you, Mr. Chairman, Members of the Commission. Again, if I could direct your attention to the overhead. This is - we spent a little bit of time on the slide that you have in front of you. As you remember, the Touchmark property is a very large piece of property that's directly behind the St. Luke's and acxoss the street -- or I guess kitty-corner, more or less, from the R.C. Willey property. It's alarge --what is typified as a retirement-type community with assisted care, with attached dwellings and other types of housing for seniors and it's a very large project. Throughout the project it completely surrounds the piece of property that we are talking about the annexation tonight that would be highlighted, the thumb that sticks through here. Again, this is another piece of property that's a County enclave completely surrounded by the city. The applicant or Touchmark, when they came through, did not own this piece of property and, subsequently, when the Comprehensive Plan amendment for the Touchmark project took place, this property was not changed on the Comprehensive Plan from the 1993 to the mixed use zone, as all the rest of the Touchmark project was. What it ends up with is we have a piece of property that, according to the 1993 Comprehensive Plan that was in effect at the time, showed that as being residential. On the effective Comprehensive Plan it is continuing to remain asingle-family residential. It brings up a couple of issues, because if we were to change it to the mixed planned development per the existing - per the 1993 Comprehensive Plan, we would be required to have this piece of property go through a Conditional Use Permit. Because anytime you're in a mixed-use zone with the Comp Plan, it requires a Conditional Use Permit. We need to have a specific finding tonight and you will notice that on page five -- it actually starts on Page 4, points of discussion, and ends on Page 5, discussion on how we need to handle that tonight. If you were to include this as part of the Comprehensive Plan and the Development
