Staff Recommendation: On December 4, 2013, the Planning Commission held a public hearing, took testimony, and voted (5-0) to forward the zoning request to City Council with a favorable recommendation, subject to the findings of fact and one condition, which is as follows:
 
      A.  Until such time as the C-2 zoning designation becomes effective, no new uses shall be permitted on the property unless specifically       authorized by the Community Development Director.
Alternatives: One option would be for City Council to approve the request as submitted by the applicant; a second option would be to approve the request subject to conditions; a third option would be for City Council to deny the request.
