Case Notes
− +Staff Recommendation
DENY OC (Civic & Institutional) zoning.Approval of OC for this site would be a spot rezoning, giving the applicant development rights that none of the surrounding property owners will have. The general description in the zoning ordinance reads that OC sites should be located on arterial or major collector streets, which is not the case for this site. Both Harold Duncan Way and even Copper Ridge Rd. are classified as local streets in the Major Road Plan.
