PAGE 2 at 610 W. 24th St. in a GC -2 zone, represented by Mack LaZenby. He said it would be another McKee Development building and the site plan exceeds all requirements. After discussion, Mr. Miller moved to approve. Mr. Grieme seconded. Motion carried. The next item was a discussion of reduction of square footage requirement for efficiency units when the average square footage of a mult- family development meets a minimum standard, requested by John Morris. He said he feels that by changing the present re- quirements it would allow a builder to have a greater flexibility in his building by reducing one unit in order to make another unit larger and still meet the required square footage for the building. There was discussion with Mr. Miller and Mr. Carli in agreement that they would like to see a graphic explanation of how the idea could be utilized. The staff was requested to present a recommended change to the zoning ordinance at the next meeting and an ex- ample of how it could be done with the present requirements and how it might be done using the change in square footage requirements for efficiencies. Mrs. Sonnenberg said she would present something for review at the next meeting. The next item was discussion of an appropriate zoning for a parcel of land presently in the county an contemplating annexation. It is presently zoned AD and the proponent wishes to use it for a day care center. Mr. LaZenby was present to represent the proponent and said there is a church on the property at the present time and if the property were annexed they would bring in the utilities and the site plan would be re- viewed for further details. It was agreed that the proper zoning for the intended use would be RC -1 and would be compatible to the surrounding zoning. Mr. Morris asked the members for some input to offer the City Commission in their dis- cussion and decisions regarding home occupations in SR-1A zoning. After discussion, it was agreed that a home occupation in SR -lA and SR -1AA might be considered as a conditional - use and that a Public Hearing would be in order. Mr. Galloway moved to request per- mission from the City Commission to set a Public Hearing to allow home occupation in SR-1A and SR -1AA as a conditional use with Planning and Zoning approval. Mr. Carli seconded. Motion carried. The Minutes of the previous meeting were approved. There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.
