Dear Hr. Winterowd:
726-3759
It is my understanding that the above referenced property was
rezoned under ordinance 4962 dated November 2, 1981.
We were further advised March 1, 1988, that the property has
a Medium Industrial zoning classification. Further, the LMI
zoning is not now consistent with the property's General Plan.
My concern is quite obvious!

Apparently in 1981, owners of an adjacent property
requested LDR Low Density Residential which allowed mobile
home lots. Somehow our property was included
in the comprehensive plan due to unusual errors:
I) We were never advised of application to rezone.
2) We never requested a change of zoning.
3) The comprehensive plan negated our zoning.

We recently signed an agreement with Intercontinental where
the property was re-deeded to me. In add i t ion, I worked out
an extremely hi-dollar refinancing of the property wi th
Centennial Bank. This was based upon the LMI zoning which
was in place.
In looking at a map of the area, the creation of LDR wi 11 do
little to change the actual use of the lots in this area as
light industrial has already been established and the whole
area a mixed jungle of uses. To force us to use our frontage
land for residential rather than industrial is a travesty of
the system and penalizes me severely as the value is reduced
some $150,000 less than the refinancing.
Based upon the above, and because I am hand icapped phys ica lly
and have limited knowledge of how to research "planning" files,
would you please send me data that would track the zoning and
comprehensive plan changes from approximately 1978 to the present
time.
Your cooperation is vitally needed for me to use the property
for the best and highest use.
Thank you in advance, I remain
Sincerely yours,
