Mr. Holmquist is proposing that the northern commercial lot will be approximately .34 acres in size and the southern portion where the house is will be approximately .36 acres in size. Section 170.0l6F of the City Code requires a minimum lot size of .5 acres in the B-1 Business district. Observations: The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended denial of both requests, as the subdivision would create a substandard commercial lot and the rezoning would not allow the City adequate control over the type of commercial use.
