REZONING APPLICATION I of2
REZONING SUPPORTING INFORMATION
1.) List the changed or changing conditions in the area or in the City which make this zone change
necessary.
Prospective single family owners will be hesitant to purchase homes backing up to the
impending hwy 40 and the M -1 zoned property fronting Graham Rd. This is especially true
since the Edelweiss Gartens development will precede constuction of the Highway and to
the buyers, the thought of a future elevated exchange will be a s ignificant deterent.
Providing for duplex aoning, a logical gradation of zoning, begween the highway and
single family homes will create a much more desirable neighborhood.
2.) Indicate whether or not this zone change is in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan. If it is not,
explain why the Plan is incorrect.
The overall density for Edelweiss Gartens is within the Comprehensive Plan.
3.) List any other reasons to support this zone change.
Recent City committee meetings have stressed the importance of buffering single family
residences from major traffic arteries and undesirable business uses. This proposal
is more logical and does meet t he intent of those recent discussions—
The applicant has prepared this application and supporting information and certfes that the facts
stated herein and exhibits attached hereto are true and correct. IF APPLICATION IS FILED BY
ANYONE OTHER THAN THE OWNER OF THE PROPERTY, APPLICATION MUST BE
ACCOMPANIED BY A POWER OF ATTORNEY STATEMENT FROM THE OWNER.
