RE: Don W. and Margaret V. Stewart
Rezoning of Property Located on
the South Side of Ken Maril Road,
from South Duff Avenue one-half
mile east, from A-1 to R-1
Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council :
During its regular meeting of April 15, 1977, the Planning and Zoning
Commission considered the above request for rezoning for a second time
(since having tabled the matter during its March 11 meeting) and by a
unanimous vote of 7-0, approved the following motion:
That we turn down the request from A-1 to R-1 at this time until
we hear from the Airport study.
The master plan study, when completed within the next 12 to 2 years , pro-
mises to remove many of the Commission 's concerns by addressing such issues
as whether the airport will or should remain in its present location; whether,
if it does remain in its present location, will Runway 13-31 be extended;
whether, given the establishment of noise contours, there will be created a
no-man's land for residential development; and whether certain land uses
in the vicinity of the runway are more appropriate than others and what
should they be.
Please find attached a copy of the Department's staff report concerning this
request.
