Ms. Miller felt the result of this ordinance would be that the zoning e would not correspond to the ordinance adopted earlier. She feels Council should direct the Planning Commision to consider this issue. Her inclination would be to amend the rezoning at this point. Mr. Lieuallen said that, at the meeting where the question of rezoning was discussed, he was not thinking in terms of the Poticha project, so did not consider the portion south of the alley. Ms. Schue felt some frustration with the whole situation. Nobody at the earlier meeting understood the significance of the plans in this area and Council is now in the situation where no matter what it wants to do, that cannot be done. Ms. Miller said she is not suggesting that the motion be opposed or action not be taken. The question is whether there are additional areas that need treatment. It appears that there will be an adopted plan and zoning that don't agree. She favors sending that question to the Planning Commission. Mr. Delay moved, seconded by Ms. Smith, that findings supporting the rezoning as set forth in Planning Commission staff notes and minutes of September 4, 1979, be adopted by reference thereto, that the bill be read the second time by council bill number only, with unanimous consent of the Council, and that enactment be considered at this time. Motion carried unanimously and the bill was read the second time by council bill number only. Mr. Delay moved, seconded by Ms. Smith, that the bill be approved and given final passage. Roll call vote. All Councilors present voting aye, the bill was declared passed and numbered 18515. e Ms. Miller moved to direct the Planning Commission to consider Tax Lots 900 and 1000 and consider whether it would be more appropriate to amend the plan for the area or rezone the tax lots. Motion died for lack of a second. Mr. Lieuallen asked: if the Planning Commission considered further zoning for those lots and they were to zone in conformance with the lots to the south of the alley which would be R-2 zoning and then the Poticha project continued, would that be a nonconforming use in the district, and what are the implications. Mr. Saul said it would become a nonconforming use because it exceeded the density permitted. If it were destroyed by more than 50 percent, it would have to be rebuilt at the lesser density. Mr. Lieuallen said he would favor the plan being amended rather than the rezoning. Mr. Obie agreed with Mr. Lieuallen. c. Supplemental Budget Manager said in explaining the supplemental budget tha? since the serial levy was passed converting it to a bond issue, 1,673,500 was then made available for parkland acquisition and it is estimated that certain parklands will be purchased during the current fiscal year. e 10/8/79--7 55L
