For Meeting of: April 26, 2018 ITEM TITLE: Consideration of Comprehensive Plan amendment and rezone for approximately 2 acres of city -owned land south of S R24 near the Wastewater Treatment Plant SUBMITTED BY: Cliff Moore, City Manager SUMMARY EXPLANATION: As mentioned at the last Council Briefing meeting, the City of Yakima requests authorization from Council to file a Comprehensive Plan amendment and rezone for approximately 2 acres of land south of SR 24 near the Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) complex. Should this action be approved, it would go to the Planning Commission for study and a recommendation to Council. A possible future use could be as a site for a homeless shelter. This would be a non -project specific action and no provider would be guaranteed access to the parcel without first going through a City managed RFP process. Although not the same location as the previous Camp Hope, this region has been identified as the most feasible City -owned site for a Homeless facility. This site is not planned for WWTP expansion and is served by an arterial Street.
