Motion carried. <br /> APPLICANT: City of Pequot Lakes. <br /> Applicant requests to Rezone from Rural Residential to Rural Residential. Bonnie Watt, <br /> property owner. Parcel ID No.: 290031101A00009. <br /> Mr. Marohn explained the Staff Report. Lonny Thomas, attorney representing Ms. Watt, <br /> was present. Mr. Thomas stated that it makes no sense to rezone the property now when <br /> the property owner plans to bring a rezone application in shortly. <br /> Mr. Marohn stated that the property owner is not making this request. The City is <br /> making the request and this hearing is to zone the properties included on the opt-out list. <br /> The City will not accept applications where there are outstanding violations. <br /> A motion was made by Bill Habein, seconded by Dean Williams,to recommend to the <br /> City Council to rezone this parcel to Rural Residential, based on the following findings of <br /> fact: <br /> 1. The rezoning to Rural Residential is consistent with the City's <br /> Comprehensive Plan and Future Land Use Map, which designates this <br /> property as a Rural Residential. <br /> 2. The present land use tax classification of the parcel is for seasonal <br /> residential. <br /> 3. The landowner's stated desire to zone the parcel to Commercial would be <br /> inconsistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan and Future Land Use <br /> Map, which designates this area as a Rural Residential area. The partial <br /> commercial zoning would also be considered to be spot zoning, granting <br /> this property owner special privileges unafforded to those neighboring <br /> properties within the City boundaries. <br /> Planning Commission 9 <br /> May 18, 2006 <br />
