<br />5. Planning Commission Report - April 2, 1968
<br />a. Rezone to RP, Oakmont betweenCoburg and Oakway, McKay - The Planning Commission
<br />recommended rezoning this area from RA to Residential Professional to allow con-
<br />struction of a professional building, subject to agreement on setbacks, landscaping,
<br />illumination, signing, and parking and driveway layouts. Douglas McKay asked that
<br />the property be rezoned without an agreement setting specific conditions. He said
<br />all of the requirements provided for in the agreement are covered under the new
<br />zoning ordinance, therefore he felt the agreement unnecessary. The Planning Di-
<br />rector said the Planning Commission felt because of extreme opposition from
<br />owners of adjacent properties to the original rezoning request for the Oakmont
<br />area, the Commission had an obligation to enSure the property's compatibility with
<br />the surrounding area. Mr. Anderson moved seconded by Mr. McNutt to approve the
<br />Planning Commission recommendation. Motion carried.
