City Council Minutes of 1/16/2007 situation. Other residents feel strongly that this area should be rezoned. She believes the residential office zoning being proposed is going to ultimately benefit the residents living there, the businesses located there, and the future of the city. The zoning change allows for businesses to flourish while protecting the residents and their properties. Many people have weighed in on this discussion for many months, and she believes that following the recommendation to rezone this area will provide a different approach to try and stimulate the development of some of the lots in the area, and also to further economic development in our city. Her concern from the beginning of this discussion was always that the residents and businesses on these parcels are protected. She believes that the rezoning does protect them. Therefore, her vote is yes. Roll call continued: Orlowski, yes; Tallon, yes with comment that Councilwoman Jones eloquently stated all the reasons why he will be voting yes on this.
