ORDINANCE REZONING PROPERTY - R77-22 / Old Missouri Road / Ken Lazenby, petitioner The petitioner had requested rezoning a .51 acre tract, located on the west 67.2 side of Old Missouri Road approximately one-quarter mile south of Zion Road, from R-1 Low Density Residential to R-2 Medium Density Residential. The City Attorney read for the first time an ordinance to rezone the property as requested. The City Attorney advised the Directors that the petitioner had executed a bill of assurance declaring that not more than one single-family dwelling shall be con- structed on the property with septic tank sewer system. Mr. Bill Lazenby spoke in behalf of the petition and stated that he felt it 67.3 should be rezoned R-2 since surrounding property is zoned R-2 and since that classification would allow the best use of the property. Director Todd felt the City might be contributing to a traffic problem by providing for higher density on a narrow, hilly road. Director Hughes noted that surrounding property is zoned R-2 and that the density of development would be determined by setback requirements. Director Noland felt that an R-1 classification would not be useful and that the character of the area had surpassed the A-1 classification. He recognized Todd's concern but felt the realistic approach would be to grant the rezoning. Director Hughes, seconded by Colwell, moved rules be suspended and the ordi- 67.4 mance placed on second reading. The recorded vote was: Ayes: Hughes, Lancaster, Colwell, Henry, Todd, Noland Nays: None Absent: Malone The motion was declared passed and the ordinance was read the second time.

Bob Blackston spoke in behalf of the petition explaining that the pros- pective purchaser, Glen Fincher, wished to build his home on the lot but had no intention of subdividing. Mr. Fincher informed the Board that developments which would be necessary to subdivide the property would result in prohibitive lot costs. He assured the Board that he would not want septic tanks in a density that would create pollution problems. Fincher told the Board he would like per- mission to build his home on six of the twelve acres, reserving the remaining six until such time as sewer facilities are available. He stated he would be satisfied if only one additional home were built on the remaining six acres. 68.6 There being no further discussion nor opposition expressed, the Mayor asked if the ordinance should pass.
