The recommendations of the study were considered by a combined Council and Planning and Zoning Land Use Committee. The new P.L.O.R. District was devised and a committee recommendation was made to rezone the subject 650 acres to the P.L.O.R. classification. Staff's main concern at this point is to insure that Council is fully aware of the issues prior to the actual rezoning. Other than arranged meetings with the property owners during the very early stages of the land use study, the owners have not been consulted about the proposed rezoning. As expected there are some very real concerns among some of the property owners. Another issue involves the P.L.O.R. classification. The study recommendation was that a Planned Industrial/Office District be devised. This would have preserved some of the use rights now enjoyed by the owners of the property zoned Limited Industrial, but also eliminate the uses not compatible with straight office uses. The Land Use Committee decided to eliminate industrial uses completely and substitute laboratory and research uses. Staff does not question the appropriateness or desirability of O.L.R. uses as opposed to industiial uses, although Council must be advised that the elimination of all industrial uses makes the Village's rezoning effort Less defensible should the rezoning be contested. The property owners have also expressed some economic development consequences if all industrial uses are eliminated. Staff has no doubt that Council is empowered to rezone the area. There is also little doubt that the Limited Industrial Zoning District is not the most appropriate classification of the subject property, although the probability of litigation if the rezoning passes is high. It is therefore recommended that Council, prior to the final consideration of the resolution to zone hold a public meeting with the property owners and other interested citizens. The purpose of the meeting would be to insure that Council is aware of all the implications surrounding the rezoning in an amicable manner before proceeding with the actual rezoning. The actual ordinance to rezone will be distributed to Council, should Council decide to vote on the resolution and begin the rezoning proceedings.
