Throughout these many rezonings we have been told that 20% of property numbers or property area would
result in the need for Council `super-majority' to pass a rezoning. Now we are told only 20% of property area
can require "super-majority" vote to pass rezoning. This again is one of several changes in the rules, as we've
participated in the City processes over the past 3+ years.
23.9% protest signatures by area (25.5% by number of properties) were turned in Oct. 141h, for the "Enlarged
North Parcel" (had been collected and turned in after the LUPP amendment for the "Enlarged North Parcel"
passed). In November we were told that there would be two rezonings, requiring separate protest signatures
for Breckenridge's three S. Wilmoth properties purchased at the end of July. More owners signed that protest
(actually more owners signed both protests!). Nov.6t" 44+% by area (48% by number of properties) was turned
in for 205 S. Wilmoth rezoning. (See attached map)
We were also told Breckenridge was challenging the City to include the public roadways in the 200' property
count, changing the rules again, which would require even more signatures than ever before.
We may pass the 20%protest by area bar before Tuesday's public hearing to rezone this parcel, but with
Breckenridge owning over 45% (the athletic field), a church owning 6+%, one owner near MN owning 18+%
with 3 properties, two owners unknown with combined 10+%, the great majority of the owners closest to the
impact of Breckenridge's rezoning are owners of properties too small to make a difference (contrary to
one `person' one vote, eh?!).
The effort behind these protest signatures to mandate a"super majority" to pass a rezoning, is to force Council
members to listen to each other, consider all the positions put forth. It does not guarantee any given outcome.
Hopefully,with a 20% or greater protest of property area, or only 19.81%, the Council will not consider
a 4-2 vote worthy of reflecting Council consensus on such a crucial vote.
