I have reviewed the materials you (Greg) submitted yesterday morning. The application still lacks the following: 1. The Comprehensive Plan Amendment (CPA) for this parcel is still pending action by the Planning & Zoning Commission (7 -7 -2005) and City Council (7 -14- 2005). In accordance with Sec. 3.2.E Limitation on Reapplication, a letter must be submitted through staff to the Planning & Zoning Commission addressing applicable factors for reapplication even if the CPA is approved favorably to your proposal. If a petition for rezoning is denied by the City Council, another petition for reclassification of the same property or any portion thereof shall not be considered within a period of 180 days from the date of denial, unless the Planning and Zoning Commission finds that one of the following factors are applicable: • There is a substantial change in circumstances relevant to the issues and /or facts considered during review of the application that might reasonably affect the decision - making body's application of the relevant review standards to the development proposed in the application; • New or additional information is available that was not available at the time of the review that might reasonably affect the decision - making body's application of the relevant review standards to the development proposed; • A new application is proposed to be submitted that is materially different from the prior application (e.g., proposes new uses or a substantial decrease in proposed densities and intensities); or • The final decision on the application was based on a material mistake of fact. This request for consideration of the reapplication and your rezoning item may be considered on the same P &Z Agenda, so as not to further delay your rezoning application. 2. Robert A.
