LARIMER COUNTY REFERRAL - ZITTRAUER REZONING REQUEST:
Attorney Rodney Hallberg appeared representing Iona Zittrauer in her
request to rezone 3.5 acres south of Lot 51, Grand Estates from E-1
Estate to M-Multiple Family which was tabled at the last Planning
Commission meeting. Mr. Hallberg explained that Ms. Zittrauer is
attempting to correct a miszoning which she feels occurred when the
property was changed from open zoning classification to E-1 Estate
without her attendance or representation at the meeting. He stated
that the property is surrounded by a motel on the north, drive-in
theatre on the east, lake on the south and low density residential
area on the west and that the proposed M-Multiple Family zoning would
provide a "buffer". John Pedas of the Larimer County Planning Department
answered several questions regarding county zoning and suggested
alternatives to the rezoning such as a Planned Unit Development,
different zoning classifications, and annexation. William Marshall,
Maynard Brown, Jay Hertzler and Mr. Zimmerman opposed the rezoning
request and Mr. Marshall requested a postponement to enable more
opponents to appear and represent their views. Attorney Hallberg
stated that he had no objection to tabling the matter another month.
Member Robert E. Burgess moved consideration of the rezoning request
be tabled until the next regular Planning Commission meeting. Member
Blair seconded the motion and it passed unanimously.
There being no further business, the meeting adjourned.
