RE: Iowa State University Alumni Achievement
Fund request for rezoning property located
at the southwest corner of U.S. 30 and
Beach Avenue.
Honorable Mayor and Council Members :
At its meeting of January 9, 1976, the Ames City Planning and Zoning Commission
considered the request of the Iowa State University Alumni Achievement Fund for
rezoning of property located at the southwest corner of U.S. 30 and Beach Avenue
from A-1 to C-2. The discussion involved supplemental presentations by represen-
tatives of the Achievement Fund and residents of the adjacent residential area.
As the Council is aware, the Commission also considered amending the existing C-5
zoning district to accommodate a wider range of uses and parcel sizes. The Gateway
Center project could conceivably proceed under such an amended C-5 district. In the
absence of a decision on an amendment to C-5, the Commission took the following
action:
1. Passed a motion approving in concept the plan of proposed use of the property.
2. Recommends to the Council denial of the C-2 request. (A motion to recommend
approval of the request failed to pass.)
3. Set January 21, 1976, as a work session on an amendment to the C-5 district.
Enclosed is a petition of opposition from persons living in the Timberland Heights
area. This was presented at the meeting.
Respectfully submitted,
'!�

PETITION
We, the undersigned, request the Ames Zoning Board and
City Council to permit only limited commercial and industrial develop-
ment of the land lying in the four corners formed by the intersection of
U. S. highway 30 and Elwood Drive, land on either side of Elwood Drive
extending from highway 30 south and land on either side of Airport Road
from Elwood Drive to South Riverside. Our concern is that uncontrolled
commercial construction and expansion will take place in a residential
area under present C-Z, C-3 zoning regulations. . We request that all
petitions for commercial zoning in the above noted areas be granted only
as C-5. In this way the Ames Zoning Board and City Council can more
effectively control development of this area.
