Annexation/Rezoning Request for Property Located South of West 18th Avenue and West of Bertelsen Road from County AGT-5 and RA Districts to City AG Agricultural District and Application of City Residential Sign District (Young/Bertelsen Associates/Bailey Hill Land Company) (A/Z 82-4) (map, background information distributed) Recommended approval by Planning Commission December 14, 1982 Vote--6:0 Mr. Gleason introduced Bill French, Planning. Mr. French said that the request involved 239 acres in the Willow Creek drainage basin within the boundaries of the Willow Creek Special Area Study. He said that the property involved was south of Gimpl Hill Road and west of Bertelsen Road. Mr. French said that the impetus behind the request was to protect flora and fauna in a critical wetlands area. He referred to page 1-30 of the Planning Commission staff notes of December 14, 1982, and noted that at least a part of each of the lots in question was wetland. He said the AG Agricultural District was proposed as an interim zone for the property until the appropriate need can be demonstrated to zone the property for low-density residential use. He said that the Nature Conservancy would be responsible for protection of the wetlands area and that density transfer would be used when the property surrounding the wetland area is developed, so that residences could be built in the dry areas and the wetland can be left undeveloped. Mr. French said that Planning Commission President Eleanor Mulder was present to respond to questions from councilors, as was Ken Margolis of the Nature Conservancy. No ex parte contacts or conflicts of interest were declared by councilors. Staff notes and minutes were entered into the record. Public hearing was opened. .
