HomeMy WebLinkAboutA008 - request for delay in discussion of rezoning request 'AMES till MT Ault 'EII� TO: Mayor and City Council 7 FROM: Steven L. Schainker, City Manager er1 DATE: October 9, 1990 SUBJECT: Bandshell Neighborhood Rezoning Request The City has received a letter from Harvey Terpstra (representing the Bandshell Neighborhood Association) asking the City Council to delay consideration of their rezoning request until its November 13 meeting. Because the Council will be deliberating on the Prairie View West issue on October 23rd, it was felt that delaying the Bandshell request would allow Council more time to deal with each of these lengthy issues on separate dates. I interpreted Mr. Terpstra's letter to mean that they were concerned about i holding the two rezoning hearings on the same date and, therefore, I went I ahead and scheduled the Land Use Policy Plan discussion for tonight, October 9th. However, I have been told that the staff informed the Neighborhood Association that both the LUPP discussion and rezoning hearing would be held at the same Council meeting. Therefore, I would recommend that the City Council delay discussion of the proposed Land Use Policy Plan amendment { (agenda item #36) and rezoning hearing (agenda items #37) for the Bandshell Neighborhood until November 13. In addition, Mary Terpstra has advised me that the Council Action Form omitted one of the four major reasons why the petitioners are proposing a LUPP map amendment. Inadvertently omitted was their concern with the current traffic flow from medium density areas through low density areas. /lw c: Mary Terpstra FILED OCT - 41990 CITY CLERK CITY Of AMES,IOWA October 4, 1990 To : Ames City Council From: Bandshell Neighborhood Association RE: Bandshell Neighborhood Rezoning Request We understand that you will be setting the date of our hearing at the October 9th council meeting .
