Motion made by Bailey, seconded by Stork that a Public Hearing be held July 5, 1967 on this zone change request. Motion Carried. The City Manager read the following letter from the Planning Commission for information purposes regarding Kurtzman Park. 31.6 PASCO, WASHINGTON COUNCIL CHAMBERS REGULAR MEETING ZONE CHANGE - KURTZMAN PARK: JUNE 209 1967 "It was the opinion of the Planning Commission that the proposed change of zone to R-2 would allow that land, which is now vacant to be better utilized for development. Presently, the land is needed by the Benton - Franklin Central Labor Council in order to remain in conformance with the lot area requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. (Section 2-16, Lot Area 7,200 square feet per dwelling unit). Under the R-2 zoning, the land would not be needed by the Rent Supplement Housing and therefore, available for other uses. The Planning Commission also felt that due to the location of the Rent Supplement Housing and the probable influx of people into that area immediately to the south as a part of the relocation effort of the Urban Renewal Project, that the existing size of Kurtzman Park (five acres) will need to be increased to accomodate the increased density. Therefore, it is strongly urged by the Planning Commission that the six acre piece of land contiguous to the north and east of Kurtzman Park be acquired and developed by the City as an extension of the existing Kurtzman Park. Concerning the proposed R-1 to C-1 zone change, the Planning Commission felt that increasing the commercial zoning an additional 150' to the south, thereby making a total depth of 300' of commercial zoning along Lewis Street, would allow for better design for commercial activities; and the greater depth would enhance the chances of promoting a shopping center type of development instead of strip commercial development along Lewis Street. The area is readily adaptable for this type development as it is in only two ownerships and vacant." Councilman Wiseman asked that this zone change request be placed on the next Workshop Agenda.
