Mr. Delay asked the Council to look into the notification procedure at another meeting. He said he did not like the piecemeal approach. ~ The motion carried unanimously. B. Concurrent annexation/rezoning property located north of Jessen Drive, west of U.S. Highway 99 North from County M-2 to City R-l and M-2 SR (Maher) (AZ 78-l8) Recommended by Planning Commission January 2, 1979, with 4:1 vote. Mr. Saul said this proposed annexation involves 5.56 acres of land located in a triangular area bounded by Highway 99, Beltline Road, and Jessen Drive. In the last year, two adjacent parcels of land have been annexed to the city that involved property south of this site, and property along Arnold Street and Elizabeth, located west of the site. A portion (3.7 acres) of the property has been developed primarily for warehousing and storage while it was in the county. The west portion of the site (approximately 1.8 acres) is vacant. The recommended zoning of the property maintains industrial zoning for that area, and the Planning Commission recommends the application of the R-l district to the vacant portion to allow residential develop- ment of that portion in a manner similar to the development to the south and to the west. Mr. Saul noted the written findings for the annexation include the Cityls normal standards, pertinent portions of the LCDC Administrative Rule, and the applicable Statewide Goals. e Mr. Saul, in answering the question, "Is the commercial zoning de facto zoning"?, said it was a recognition of what had occurred on the property. Behind it was a history of work between the Lane County Planning Commission and the property owners in that general area primarily to the north and the east. There was more or less committed industrial development in that area. The recommended zoning in the future would allow for changes in the type of use and other forms of industrial development on that 3.7 acres. The Planning Commission asked for site review on that industrial portion. In calling for ex parte contacts or conflicts of interest, Brian Obie noted he had property nearly adjacent to this property that had not been annexed, and would abstain from voting. Staff notes and minutes were entered into the record. Public hearing was held with no testimony presented. Res. No. 3087--Recommending to Boundary Commission annexation of property located north of Jessen Drive, west of U.S. Highway 99 North was read by number and title. e Mr. Delay moved, seconded by Ms. Smith, that the findings suppor- ting the annexation as set forth in Planning Commission staff notes and minutes of January 2, 1979, be adopted by reference thereto; and that the resolution be adopted. The motion carried unanimously, with Mr. Obie abstaining. 3/12/79--3 /31
