e e e property owner.1I Ms. Czerniak responded that the area has been designated as a riparian zone, and that the State would require further area delineation if development proceeds. Jan Childst Planning and Development Departmentt noted that confusion has been generated by the use of the term "setback.1I Although the term IIsetbackll usually means an area in which no building can take placet the term IIsetbackll in this case indicates the location of a zoning line. Responding to a question from Mr. Holmert Ms. Czerniak said that the Final Order that the council is being asked to adopt is based on the Planning Commission's recommendation. Council may want to direct staff to revise the Final Order. Mr. Green asked about the likelihood of a decrease in property value should the zoning of this property change. Mr. Gleason said that if compatible with the surrounding areat it would be unusual for development to denigrate the property value. Responding to a question from Mr. Miller, Ms. Czerniak said that the Metro Plan designates the general area of this request for medium-density development, the River Road/Santa Clara Urban Facilities Plan seems to indicate that a portion of this property phases into low-density development. Mr. Gleason said that the Planning Commission has made an interpretation of two documents which govern the same area. The council has the authority to dispute this decision. Ms. Ehrman remarked that it is unclear whether the recommendation for a 100-foot setback came from staff or from the Planning Commission. Ms. Czerniak responded that during the public hearing the Planning Commission raised questions about how to address some of the issues raised by neighbors. The 100-foot strip zoned R-l was one option presented by staff. Res.
