Re: Ordinance No. 3-1981
Plan Commission Case PC-81-5
Dear Mr. Mills, Members of Common Council and Mrs. Trimble:
The Richmond City Plan Conmi_ssion conducted a public hearing on Tues-
day, January 27, 1981, on the petition of Floyd Nixon; Gayle Gardner,
Agent, requesting a rezoning from R-3 One -to -Eight Family Residence
District to M-1 Light Industrial District on property located at
300 through 326 North 4th Street.
Five (5) notices of public hearing were sent to adjoining property
owners with one (1) returned in opposition to the request. During
the public hearing no one spoke in opposition to or in favor of the
petition.
The Plan Commission considered the following facts in making their
determination:
1. The Master Plan designates the property in question as
Industrial.
2. Significant changes have occurred since the adoption
of the Zoning Ordinance in 1968 including the demolition
of blighted dwellings and outbuildings. The resultant
vacant ground has not been attractive to new residen-
tial development.
3. The proposed zoning change is a logical continuation
of an existing M-1 District.
4. The area adjacent to the property in question presently
adjoins M-1 Zoning on the north so that property values
in the neighborhood should not be harmed.
Mr. Kenneth Mills, President
1,kmbers of Common Council
January 29, 1981

Therefore, the Plan Commission voted ten (10) to zero (0) to reconmend
that Ordinance No. 3-1981 be approved.
Respectfully submitted,
CITY PLAN COMMISSION
