Chairman Martin reviewed the impact of the rezoning request for the Board, saying the
request was approved at the March Land Development and Regulatory Agency (LDRA)
meeting, to rezone the subject property from 1-1 to B-2. Mr. Martin asked Mr. Karet to
comment. Mr. Karet reviewed the request.
Mr. Hellsten stated the main issue seems to be the inter-face between the B-2 District and the
1-1 District and the impact of buffering in the 1-1 District. Mr. Hellsten also discussed the
possibility of making the adult day-care a permitted use in the 1-1 District.
The Board discussed in length the need for industrial zoned land and whether rezoning the
property to B-2 was an appropriate use in the industrial district. The Board also discussed the
possibility of buffering problems in the future.

Chairman Martin brought up the problem with the wording "residentially zoned property"
rather than residential property as stated in the 1-1 District, as it relates to buffering in the
industrial district. Mr. Martin stated he would like this addressed at a Land Development and
Regulatory Agency meeting.
In summary Chairman Martin asked each Board member their opinion of the rezoning. Each
member said they had no problem with the Extended Family facility locating in the industrial
district and stated their support of the rezoning request, but expressed the need to further
address buffering.
Mr. Fong moved to recommend to Council, to address the issues discussed at this meeting be
addressed in the Land Development Regulation review along with the burdens imposed by
buffering between industrial and non-industrial. Motion seconded by Mr. Porta. Motion
CARRIED 4-0.
Chairman Martin asked Mr. Karet how to have the language clarified regarding the twenty-
five foot buffer that states residential property rather than residentially zoned. Mr. Karet said
it would be a text amendment. Mr. Hellsten interjected that he will request Mr. Karet to put
this issue on the next Land Development and Regulatory Agenda to come up with a zoning
text amendment that addresses this issue.
