Shawna Turner asked for the staff report. Justin Erickson presented the staff report.
After presenting the staff Mr. Erickson stated that an R-2 residential classification would be the best fit for the site, for the following reasons:
1. It will allow construction of a duplex structure, which is lower in density than a triplex;
2. It allows productive use of the larger site, while also limiting potential neighborhood impacts; and
3. It is more consistent with the Comprehensive Plan than an R-3 designation would be.
Justin Erickson recommended denial of the applicant’s request to rezone the subject property to R-3 and instead recommended approval of a rezone from R-1 to R-2 (Combined Residential District).
