-128- The Planning Commission reviewed the rezoning request at their January 2, 2001 meeting. There was no citizen input during the public hearing. The City Council reviewed the rezoning request on January 23,2001. The Council referred the case to the Public Works Committee in order to resolve a storm drainage easement issue that would cross the Pehlke property. During the Public Works Committee, Staff proposed a more comprehensive approach to storm drainage issues in the neighborhood as well as other infrastructure issues that would be affected by future development. Staff worked closely with the Pehlke's and determined that more discussion would be necessary prior to resolving all the issues in the neighborhood, however, it was further agreed that the rezoning and plat process proceed. The Pehlke's have agreed to sign a Letter of Understanding, which states that the Pehlke's will continue to negotiate with the City to allow a water drainage easement on their property. Recommendation: Once a comprehensive plan has been adopted or amended, cities must conform their land use regulations in accordance with the plan. The property has been in the MUSA since 1995 and City Staff and Planning Commission recommend approval of rezoning the property fi:om R-1 Rural Residential to R-1 Urban Residential. Council Action: Motion to adopt Resolution #01-04~ adopting Findings of Fact # relating to a request fi:om Dave and Betty Pehlke to rezone certain properties fi:om R-1 Rural Residential to R-I Urban Residential.
