An owner and representative, Frank Kunnen, stated that plans are
to convert the existing single familY residences to office use.
He reviewed the background and history of subject property.
commenting that due to the usage of the surrounding properties,
the subject property is not feasible for the development of
single family residences.
I
I
Ms. Harvey commented that should the above request be approved,
parking requirements would increase considerably, depending upon
the amount of square footage. She further cited an increase
in traffic generation.
I
I
Ms. Harvey felt that PS (Professional Services) zoning
classifieation across the street is not justification for a
change in use. If developed, the property owners should present
a uniform plan for consideration in order to properly develop
these lots.
I
No citizen appeared in support of above request.
I
The following persons. residing on Oakview Avenue and Jasmine
Way, appeared in opposition to above request: Sam Evans, Curtis
Wynn, Ms. Lennette MilIus, Janet Newitt, James A. Smith, and Ken
Griffith. They cited the following concerns: (1) increased
traffic generation and inadequate parking; (2) small lots pre-
cluding adequate parking facilities; (3) fear of loss of privacy
and lessening of the quality of life;; (4) adequate Professional
Services zoning already available in the neighborhood; (5) fear
of burglary in the neighborhood; (6) depreciation of property;
and (7) fear of possible future purchase of lots on Oakview for
additional parking.
I
I
I
I
A letter dated August 31. 1984 from Janet and Jack Newitt was
received in opposition to above request.
I
Mr. Goodwin felt that the subject property should be considered
as a master plan and cited that to change the zoning in the area
would create problems.
I
Motion was made by Mr. Hogan, seconded by Mr. Free, to recommend
denial of above request. Motion carried unanimously (7-0). Mr.
Green stated that although he practiced law in the area, he
didn't know of any conflict of interest.
