AN ORDINANCE granting a rezone to property located at 1218 South 6th Street from B-1, Professional Business to CBDS, Central Business District Support. WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 15.23.030 of the City of 111 Yakima Municipal Code Frank Rataezyk 'applied for a rezone of his property located at 1218 South 6th Street, Yakima, Wash- ington, from B-1, Professional Business, to CBDS Central Business District Support. Said property is legally described as: Lot 13, Fairchild Acre Tracts, according to the official plat. thereof recorded in Volume "A" of Plats, Page 115, records of Yakima County, Washing- ton, EXCEPT the West 10 feet thereof for alley, situated in Yakima County, Washington. and WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 15.23.030 of the City of Yakima Municipal Code the Hearing Examiner conducted a public hearing on said rezone application on July 2, 1986, and WHEREAS, the Hearing Examiner adopted written findings, conclusion and recommendation denying said application for a rezone, and WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 15.23.030 of the City of Yakima Municipal Code, on August 12, 1986, the City Council held a public meeting at which it rejected the recommendation of the Hearing Examiner followed by a public hearing at which the City Council heard testimony of witnesses and accepted exhibits regarding said application for a rezone, and WHEREAS, as a result of its hearing the City Council adopted the following findings and conclusion. FINDINGS 1. The location of the proposed rezone is at 1218 South 6th Street (Northwest corner of South 6th Street and Central 410 Avenue). Access to the site would be from 6th Street which is an arterial street. 2. The subject property is occupied by an older single family dwelling and garage. Situate on property to the North is an older single family dwelling. Property to the South and West is vacant. To the East and immediately across South 6th REZONEOR.3/G5 Street is a church (mission) and presumably a parish house. While the property to the East is zoned R-2, it is noted that in the near vicinity there are several multiple family dwellings as well as single family dwellings. There are also several vacant lots. A church is a Class (1) use in a CBDS 411 zone. 3. The present zoning of the immediately adjacent property is: North B-1 South B-1 West CBDS East R-2 The B-1 zoning of the subject property and of property to the North and South extends along the West side of South 6th Street for about 1-1/2 blocks. North of that B-1 zone is an area where an M-1 zone abuts an R-2 zone, and South of the existing B-1 zoning is an area where a CBDS zone abuts an R-2 zone. 4. The subject property is adjacent to a CBDS zone, and because of its location and the use of the land in the imme- diate vicinity, it is more suitable for a CBDS use than a B-1 use. It is not suitable for professional offices nor is there a likelihood that offices or a multiple family dwelling will be built on the site in the future. It is not probable that any of the presently zoned B-1 properties within the island of properties zoned B-1 will ever provide a buffer (other than as vacant lots or lots on which are situate the present older homes) between the CBDS district to the West and the R-2 district to the East. 5. Notice of the aforementioned City Council meeting and hearing was given consistent with the terms of Section 15.11. 090 of the City of Yakima Municipal Code. 6. The City Council has heard and considered all testi- mony and exhibits at its public hearing all of which was favorable to the requested rezone. 1 7. The subject property is served by adequate arterial street and other street access and adequate sewer and water service to permit the uses allowed in a CBDS zone. REZONE.OR3/G5 -2- _a' • 8. The subject property is compatible to the uses of a CBDS zone and the rezone to CBDS will benefit the community as a whole. 9. A public need exists for the proposed rezone. • 10. The City' s planning department has recommended re- jection of the proposed rezone. 11. The proposed rezone conforms with the overall intent of the Yakima Urban Area Comprehensive Plan and the City' s zoning code. CONCLUSIONS 1. The recommendation of the Hearing Examiner dated July 2, 1986 recommending against the rezone of the subject prop- erty should be rejected and the subject property rezoned CBDS, Central Business District Support.
