Cooper, 736 South 42nd Street have submitted an application to rezone their property (identified above) from Low Density Residential District (LDR) to l'ledium Density Residential District (MDR). The request has been scheduled for a public hearing before the Springfield Planning Commission on July 6, 1988. The Cooper's request for a zone change to MDR fs consistent with the Comprehensive Plan's designation for this property. The Cooper's application contains findings that satisfactorily address the zone change criteria found in the Springfield Development Code. Staff supports this request because of consistency with the Plan and Code and because the current number of dwelling units on this property will be permftted upon completion of this rezoning. I,Jhen the Planning Commission reviews this request on July 6, 1988, they will consider a'll the evjdence entered into the record. l.lhile I cannot predict with unfailing accuracy what the decision of the Planning Commission will be, their record of objectivity and concern with the timely implement,ation of Comprehensive Plan po'licies is very well documented. Based on my review of this request, I have no reason to believe that the Planning Commission will act otherwise. If I may be of further assistance, please contact me at your convenience.
