? PLANNING COMMISSION JANUARY 22, 1985 PAGE 2 2) Great Northern Properties, south side of Country Club Blvd. (between Victoria Plaza and I-480). • . Preliminary plans to construct motel in Mixed Use District. (Continued from Planning Commission meeting on January 8, 1985). WITHDRAWN by Developer. Even though proposal has been withdrawn, Chairman Morgan asked Assistant Law Director Dubelko to give legal opinion that was requested January 8th as to whet'her or not Planning Commission'could approve a motel in a Mixed Use District. Mr. Dubelko stated that the Mixed Use "A'' district calls for multi-story high rise office or apartment buildings and that,'in his opinion, a motel differs from an apartment, and would not be a permitted use; further, definition of a multiple dwelling expressly excludes "hotel and motel". Discretionaiy powers of the Planning Commission as stated in Section 1203.01 would not allow Planning Commission to approve a motel, because it is not a permitted use within Chapter 1202. A hotel was approved for the Great Northern Corporate Center but in that instance the preliminary land use plan was approved prior to the adoptiori of Ordi- nance 81-132 which created the Mixed Use "A" and "B"• The parcel in question could only be considered Mixed Use "A" (requiring at least 10 acres); the Corporate Center, with over 35 acres conceivablv could fall under the Mixed Use "B" category. Regarding the 90' set back which was questioned by the neighbors, Assistant Law Director Dubelko stated that Section 1203.04 require all non-residential buildings to be located at least one hundred feet from every boundary line, and that other sections of Chapter 1203 requireslandscaped buffers of 50' and 40' respectively along residential and public road areas. • IV.
