.. Mr. Murray moved seconded by Mrs. Shirey to hold a hearing on the above matter on May 24. Motion carried, all Council members present voting aye except Mrs. Shirey voting no. Comm 5/12/76 Pub Hrng Jim Saul, planner, reviewed development of standards adopted in 1973 covering creation of panhandle lot subdivisions. Under those standards, he said, only one area - States Streets area - was designated as appropriate for this type subdivi- sion. As a result, applications for panhandle lot subdivisions were recommended by staff on the basis of the lots in surrounding areas, leading to appeals and endless debate on what constituted panhandle lots. Because of that problem, he said, the Commission voted to reconsider the policy for creation of panhandle lots. Mr. Saul read the revised standards as set out in the Planning Commission report of April 6, 1976, copies of which were previously distributed to Council members, and recommended for adoption by unanimous vote of the Commission. Public hearing was held with no testimony presented. Mr. Haws moved second by Mr. Hamel to adopt the revised panhandle lot policy as recommended. Rollcall vote. Motion carried, all Council members present voting aye. F. Rezoning Public Hearings Scheduled for May 24, 1976 Corom 1. Rezoning area east of Onyx, west of N.

Area east of Onyx, west of North Shasta Loop - From RA to RA-SR (Powell)(Z 76-6) Recommended by the Planning Commission on April 6, 1976. Jim Saul, planner, described the approximately two acres located at the eastern edge of the city on relatively steep slopes east of Amazon Parkway. He said site review procedures were requested by the applicant to allow cluster units with a maximum density of four units to the acre on the lower portions of the property where there was the least degree of slope, retaining the upper, steeper slopes as open space. Mr.Saul noted some concern expressed by Commission members that building a full four units per acre may not be the best development, but it was decided that factor could be reviewed when specific plans for development were submitted under the site review procedures. The rezoning was recommended with the feeling that it responded best to the natural conditions of the site. e. Councilwoman Shirey expressed concern about the density because of the amount of property that was unusable due to the steep terrain. She urged careful review of the density under the site review procedures. No ex parte contacts or conflicts of ;nterest were.declared by Counci+ members. Planning Commission staff notes and mlnutes of Aprll 6, 1976 were recleved as part of this record by reference thereto. 5/24/76 _ 5 jt:,~
