John Dulmer, City Planning Consultant, described the subject property and gave a briefbackground
of the petition. He explained that the property was just approved by the City Council for a Future
Land Use Map amendment. Mr. Dulmer was informed that the property owner submitted a letter
stating that the applicant Cathy Knapp no longer has a contract to purchase her property and that
she is wishing to pursue with the change in zoning request. However she is requesting an
amendment to the petition currently requesting a change in zoning from RMF to CHV and she
wants it amended to RMF to CPO (Commercial Professional Office). Ms. Connelly also stated in
her letter that she has a potential tenant who wishes to continue the operation of a day care. Under
the Commercial Professional Office zoning designation it allows for a day care by special
exception. Mr. Dulmer indicated that Commercial Professional Office (CPO) would be a more
appropriate zoning designation for that location. Staff recommends that the Planning Board
recommend to the City Council to grant the request to change the existing zoning designation of
Residential Multiple Family (RMF) to Commercial Professional Office (CPO), located at 1306
S.W. 2nd Avenue.

John Dulmer, City Planning Consultant, described the subject property and gave a briefbackground
of the petition. He explained that the subject property is currently zoned as Holding and cannot
be developed if the property remained with the current zoning designation. Mr. Dulmer indicated
that Residential Single Family 1 (RSF1) is an appropriate zoning designation for the subject
property. He explained that the property has twenty-six (26) fifty-foot (50') wide lots and that the
requirements of the RSF 1 zoning designation indicate that each lot must have a minimum of
seventy-five (75) feet for the width of the lot. Mr. Dulmer further explained that there is an
adjacent property to the East zoned Industrial (IND) and recommended that the Board make a
condition requiring landscaping as a buffer from the adjoining property to the East. Staff
recommends that the Planning Board recommend that the City Council grant the request to change
the existing zoning designation of Holding (H) to Residential Single Family 1 (RSF 1), located
within the 900 Block ofN.W. 5th and N.W. 6th Streets
