Recommendation: Staff recommends the following format for the work session: • Presentation by staff; • Presentation by the applicant; • Public comment; and • 'Comments by the Planning Commission and direction to staff and the applicant. Staff anticipates bringing this item back to the Planning Commission for consideration at its next regularly scheduled meeting on October 10, 2002. DISCUSSION The following sections discuss the major points staff believes are relevant to the work session discussion. Land Use/Rezone The subject property is currently zoned IG, Industrial General District.

Any amendment to the allowable uses in the Planned Development, including but not limited to changes in permitted, conditionally permitted, and prohibited uses, shall require review and recommendation by the Planning Commission and approval by the City Council. The first new condition would limit the proposed parcel processing center to the size at which it is proposed (with small planned future expansion noted on the proposed plans).
