AN ORDINANCE affirming the recommendation of the Planning Commission
and rezoning property in the 300 block of South 10th
Avenue from R-3, Multiple-Family Zone to B-1, Modified
Business Zone.
WHEREAS, pursuant to due and legal notice, the City Council
of the City of Yakima held a hearing on the 22nd day of February,
1983, on the recommendation of the Planning Commission that
property situate in the 300 block of South 10th Avenue in the
City of Yakima, Washington, the legal description of which is set
out hereinbelow, be rezoned from R-3, Multiple-Family Zone to B-1,
Modified Business Zone, and
WHEREAS, as a result of its hearing, the City Council deter-
111 mined that the rezone should be granted, and hereby makes its
following findings and conclusions:
FINDINGS
1. The property involved in the rezone request consists of
eight lots situate on the east side of South 10th Avenue between
Spruce Street and Pine Street in the City of Yakima. The property
is presently zoned for R-3, Multiple-Family Zone, and the request
is those lots to be rezoned to B-1, Modified Business Zone
for the purpose of developing the property for professional office
use.
411 2. The properties under consideration are occupied by well
maintained single-family dwellings, one lot is vacant, and is
zoned R-3 (Multiple-Family Res.). Land use and zoning on adjacent
properties is as follows:
Zoning Land Use
South North
h Single-family residential and
convalescent home
• R-3 Single-family residential
East
Single-family residential
West B-1 Professional offices and single-
., family residential
3. The property for which the rezone is sought is adjacent
to property presently zoned B-1, Modified Business Zone.and is
buffered from adjacent R-3, Multiple-Family Zone properties by
411 and alley and streets. Any potential problems of incompatibility
between the use of the rezoned property and adjacent properties
are resolved by this buffering effect.
4. There is a demand by physicians and related services
for property to be developed for professional offices in this
111
area adjacent to the existing medical center area, but there is
410
a shortage of property with. B-1, Modified Business Zone zoning
and available for development as professional offices in the area.
5. The Yakima City Planning Commission, in public hearing
on February 1, 1983, recommended approval of the rezone request.
CONCLUSIONS
1. There is a very limited supply of properly zoned land
to accommodate the demand for growth of the medical center area.
Growth to the west and south is generally undesirable except for
a few_very restricted circumstances. Growth to the north and east
is acceptable provided it occurs in an orderly manner with limited
compatibility conflicts with adjacent properties. The growth
associated with this rezone is occuring in a proper direction and
in an orderly manner.
2. The recommendation of the Planning Commission to grant
the rezone should be affirmed, and the rezone should be granted,
now, therefore,
BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY OF YAKIMA:
