Statement of Purpose
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE: This ordinance provides a zoning change from Residential-Traditional (R-1) to Park and Open Space (P-1), for properties adjacent to Skyline Boulevard, and from Residential-Traditional (R-1) to Mixed Use-Neighborhood (MU-N) for properties generally near the former UDAC site. The rezoning is in line with the city council resolution 19-0253R, adopted 4/22/19, changing the future land use designations of these properties.
On May 29, 2019, the Duluth city planning commission held a special public hearing on the proposal as described in Attachment 2, and voted 7 yeas, 0 nays, 0 abstentions, to recommend that the city council approve the rezoning requested for the following reasons:
1) The MU-N and P-1 zones are most reasonably able to implement the objectives of the Comprehensive Plan related to the proposed land use for this area.
2) The rezoning is consistent with the Comprehensive-Plan Future Land Use Map.
3) Material adverse impacts on nearby properties are not anticipated.
