TO: Planning Commission and City Council
FROM: Chris Boone, Director of Planning and Community Development
SUBJECT: Consider a request for a Rezoning from GC-MD-2 (General Commercial-Multiple
Family Dwelling District-2) and RM-H (Residential Multiple Family Dwelling
District-Highest Density) to GC-MD (General Commercial-Multiple Family
Dwelling District) or a more restrictive District.

STAFF REPORT
Planning staff recommends rezoning the northern approximately 300 x ~168.5 feet to
GC-MD-2 (General Commercial - Multiple Family Dwelling District -2). The remainder
of the property should remain RM-H (Residential Multiple Family Dwelling - Highest
Density District), with no GC-MD-2 uses accessing Junker Road now or in the future.
Chris Johnsen is requesting a zone change for the property located at 6365 Calder and
145 Junker Road. Mr. Johnsen states his company would like to develop the property for
commercial office and retail property. Junker Road is a minor residential street that only
exits to Calder Avenue. Further commercial encroachment to this street will compromise
the residential neighborhoods accessed by this street. Extending the GC-MD-2 property
that faces Calder Avenue further to the south would allow further development of this
property off Calder Avenue, while limiting commercial access to Junker Road.
Please note that final occupancy approval is subject to review and acceptance of
submitted plans and field inspections to verify compliance with applicable codes.
Exhibits are attached.
