to the Commission and answer any questions.

Development District, to Suburban Commercial and now back to Planned Development District.
Senior Planner Bombek stated that the property's original zoning of Planned Development District

Suburban Commercial when that zoning district was created, but a Planned Development District

that the developer cannot cause more drainage issues than already present.

occur on the property, and further drainage studies will be required.

rezoning of this property and there was a letter stating with this request that there are no uses being
created that would trigger a new TIA at this time.
