Shawna Turner asked for the staff report. Justin Erickson presented the staff report.

After presenting the staffreport, Mr. Erickson stated that if the Planning Commission recommends approval to rezone to R-3, that the decision be based on the following findings:





1. The area of the subject site is too small to be intensively developed; but at the same time, the lot area is too large to be devoted exclusively to a single residence.
2. Development of a triplex on the subject site is not inconsistent with the Shawnee Comprehensive Plan.
3. The proposed dwelling units are consistent in size with neighboring structures.
4. Rezoning of the subject site to R-3 will not be detrimental to public health, safety or welfare.
5. Rezoning of the subject site will not negatively impact adjacent neighbors or disrupt the neighborhood or community dynamic.

Shawna Turner asked if anyone was for the proposal. Abner Monterosso came forward for the proposal and answered questions from the Commission.

Shawna Turner asked if anyone was against the proposal. No one came forward.

Shawna Turner asked for a motion, Commissioner Prince made a motion, seconded by Commissioner Silvia to approve rezoning 606 E. Seymour to R-3 based on the 5 findings as outlined by staff and an added 6th stating the 5x 54 designated green area to be curbed.
