Dear Commissioners,
It is unavoidable th.at I miss this evenings meeting due to other obli.-
gations. However, I did want to express my thoughts.
I am .opposed to the rezoni.ng of Raintree, p\l1opertyfrom R-l to R.....3. This
is a second re.....zoning. Previously a reques:t was made fora R-I rezoning.
The request is not specific about plans. As of this date, I have been
unable to locate a fi.led proper platt which shows access. Arguments
concerning land topography are irrelevant until access issues can be
resolved. This P'l1oposal significantly increases area density and traffic
with extremely limited resources available.
At the original zoning for th.e.R:aintree subdivision, the P & Z ( as seen
in the minutes) allowed approval of the platt, only if no through
traffic is permitted. I am requesting that each of you consider any
conflict-of:-iiinterest issues whi'.ch could conceivable apply when consider-
ing this rezoning request. This type of capricious rezoning allows for
no quarantee'. as to future 'uses of zoned property to homeowners.
Thank you fo'r your attentiontoth.is matter 4!

MEMORANDUM
FROM:
Anne Hazen, Planning & Zoning Commissioner
TO:
Mayor Halter and Members of the City Council
SUB"JECT: Rezoning request for Lots 1-14, Block 4, Raintree and fora
3.05 acre tract in Block 6, Sec. 4, ,Raintr'ee, acted upon at
the P & Z meeting of May 21, 1981.
Mr. Schultz has asked meta clarify my opposition to the R-3 zoning he
requested.
Mr. Schultz proposed to developat>R-l density but needs to have flexibility
in order to use thenaturalterain'and save as many trees as possible. I
am in total agreement with.: this therefore I would rather see the city allow
a developer (in an R-F zone) . a variance to. our side and. . rear set. back require-
ments in order to save:tre~s",and utilize higher ground'(i..e. in the flood
areasesp.)-Providinghe.:.isdevelop'ing all the lots himself orin the case
of the builder o"tmed 'lots,~;':that' the> builder oWnsall't~elotsgranted this
variance. .

I believe theP. U. D. ,'i's . an::appropriate zone for the '3.05 acr.e tract however
it could be developable with the variances suggested above.
I do not feel R-3 is an "appropriate zone. for Raintree, however, I.
objection to the development as Mr. Schultz presented it at the P
meeting.
