e In response to a question, Ms. Anderson stated that the land north of the R.A. Chambers property was the boundary for the commercial development east of Seneca Road. She said she was concerned with the possible impact on the Monsanto property. Mr. Thwing stated that approval of the application would be a recog- nition of the commercial uses on the property. In response to a question, Mr. Farah stated that the site revi~1 procedures would give the City control over the landscaping along Seneca Road. Mayor Keller felt that the site review criteria are important and appropriate to the zone change request. He said the request is an opportunity for the City to develop a tot~ package, stating that streets are historically used as boundaries; therefore, he felt it is appropriate to extend the node. In response to previous questions and statements, Mr. Hall stated that the theater would cover approximately 30,000 square feet when fully developed and the parking area would contain another 30,000 square feet. Referring to the site plan, he stated that parts of parcels A, Band C would be used for parking. Lou Arnold, no address given, stated that he was developing prospects for the property in the event the zone change is approved. He stated that he has inspected the industrial park language and he believes that the support facilities mentioned would not be appropriate for the property because of the proportion of commercial uses to industrial uses required. He listed several types of uses that would be possible on the property, including retail, a skating rink, or a water tub. He said retaurants or banks would more likely locate on the parcels facing Seneca Road. He stated that the businesses to be developed on parcels A, Band C would have to incorporate their own parking. 4It Mr. Johnson concurred with the observation that the completion of the commercial node with the approval of this zone change will be an opportunity for the City to reduce uncertainty in the area. He said the area will still be without a boundary if the zone change is denied. He stated that the applicants are willing to cooperate in the site review process. There being no further testimony, the public hearing was closed. II. PLANNING COMMISSION HELD A PUBLIC MEETING III. CITY COUNCIL PUBLIC HEARING A.
