Subject: Land Use Compatibility Statement for an industrial use located at 195 39'h St., Map and
Tax Lot number 17-02-31-41-01300
Dear Mr. Moore,
This letter is sent in response to your request regarding whether existing development on the
above-referenced property complies with current zoning and use regulations.
The Mid-Springfield Refinement Plan designates the site as Medium Density Residential (MDR),
but the zoning classification is Light Medium Industrial (LMI). The Mid-Springfield Refinement
Plan Implementation Policies include provisions for the continued use of Industrial zoning on
properties designated Residential.
3. Allow for the continued industrial uses of developed industrial properties in areas
designated. . . Residential on the Plan Diagram, by maintaining the Light Medium
Industrial zoning classification where:
a) existing zoning is Industrial; and
b) there has been a substantial investment made in industrial improvements to the
property (i.e., the true cash value of industrial buildings on the site must exceed the
true cash value of the Iand itself).
4. Application of the Light Medium Industrial zoning, in accordance with policy #3 of
this section, shall not be considered aplan/zone conflict.
Based on the information you have provided, the transfer of ownership of the above referenced
property would not result in a change of the applicable zoning classification or the termination of
any applicable zoning classification for the property. All subsequent uses under the new owner
must comply rvith the provisions of tlie LMI Zoning District. Further, if the improvements on
the property are damaged or destroyed the repair or replacement of the improvements will not
violate applicable zoning classification, assuming there has been no change in such zoning
subsequent to the date of this letter. In summary, the industrial use on this property is in
conformance with the applicable zoning classification.
I hope this information will meet your needs. If you have questions regarding this letter, please
feelfree to contact me at (541) 736-1003.
