Mr. Bartel submitted to the Planning and Zoning Com- mission the uses outlined for neighborhood commer- cial areas. Stated their seems to be a conflict in that Mr. Trueman wishes to put in more of retail space than what was originally outlined by the P & Z Commission. Request if the Planning and Zonimg0Commission desires to change their pre- vious stand on this issue. Chairman Adams pointed out the Commission previously took the stand that they did not wish to see tourist-oriented businesses in this area, but rather businesses of a light in- dustrial nature. Planner for Mr. Trueman stated as relates to the close proximity of the Silver King Apartments, Smuggler Trailer Court and Hospital feel a neighborhood commercial service center is appropriate. Do not want to develop this property as a back yard, accross the railroad type development. Plumbing, electrical shops tend to lend themselves to problems of access and service, aesthetics of the community and would better fit in at the airport business center. Be- cause of the high cost of land in this area, eco- nomics, etc. these types of uses will locate at the airport area. Further stated plans so far have the following guidelines: (1) Commercial Service Cenner that would include and relates to needs of the neighborhood, i.e. doctors' offices since there is a closeness to the hospital; (2) pedestrian oriented with periphera parking; (3) office condo- miniums. Agree with the uses outlined for C-2 but would like to eliminate the light industrial and residential. Recommend P & Z recommend to Council a modification of the C-2 uses for this area. ~ - RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 100 Leaves FORM ~o C. F. HOECItEL 8. 8. 8< l. co.
