MOTION CARRIED: THREE AYES, ONE ABSENT Item 6. Public Hearing: RZ 02-004 Request for a Rezone of 8.2 acres from R-8 to C-G zones for Murdoch Subdivision No. 2 by Howell Murdoch Development Corporation - west of South Locust Grove Road on East Watertower Street: Borup: Thank you. Okay. Item Number 6 is Public Hearing RZ 02-004, request for rezone of 8.2 acres from R-8 to C-G zones for Murdoch Subdivision No. 2 by Howell Murdoch Development Corporation. Open this Public Hearing and start with the staff report. Siddoway: Thank you, Mr. Chairman, Members of the Commission. Murdoch Subdivision is located at the intersection of East Watertower and Locust Grove. It is across from the Woodbridge Subdivision in this area. Murdoch Subdivision No. 2 was originally annexed to the City of Meridian and zoned R-8 in May of 2000 under the name of Stratford Business Park. The next year, in May 2001, the Council approved a plat for this property with the lot configuration that's shown under the name of Murdoch Subdivision NO.2. The new Meridian Police Station sits on the large lot, right here, which is Lot 8 of Block 2 of the subdivision. The current zoning of R-8 was granted at that time, because it was in compliance with the 1993 Comprehensive Plan, which designated that area as single-family residential. The recently adopted Comprehensive Plan designates this same area commercial. The proposed rezone from R-8 to C-G in compliance with the new Comprehensive plan, would allow for commercial development of this property. The rezone is proposed on all lots of Murdoch Sub No.2, except for the police station lot so that one is not being rezoned. You should have a staff report, dated August 28th, from Bruce, Dave, and myself. We believe that findings are made that shows that this rezone is in compliance with the current Comprehensive Plan for the city. We note the standard conditions on Page 4 of that report and recommend approval of this rezone with those conditions and I'll stand for any questions. Borup: Questions from the Commission? Centers: Any motion, Steve, should it state excepting the police station lot or identify it? Siddoway: I don't know that it's necessary. The rezone application that was submitted specifies the boundaries. Centers: Okay. Borup: Okay. Thank you. Does the applicant have anything to add to staff's comments? Okay. That makes it easy. Is there anyone else here to testify on this application? Seeing none. Meridian Planning and Zoning November 7. 2002 Page 29 of B4 Centers: Well, I would close the Public Hearing, then. Move.
