RE: SVENPdES PROPERTY REZONING
Dear Mayor Prunty:
The record should reflect the fact that Dale Svennes, et al , owners
of the East Half of the Southwest Quarter of �ection 27-110-50 (80 acres,
more or less) applied back in September for rezoning of their property from
an agricultural zone to an R-3 residential district. This district is outside
of the city limits, 6ut within the 3 mile joint �urisdiction with the county.
At the same time a preliminary plat was filed and request was made for approval
of the preliminary pl�at.
When we had the .initial hearing with the Joint Planning Commission,
you a.ddressed the joint meeting indicating that you were against the request ,
�pr the reason that the prop�rty had 6een designated as cros�winds runway
and that development should be field up until a decision had been made by the
city on whetfier or not tfiat was going to be acquired. l,le had the benefit of
the airport plan that had been adopted, whicfi we felt, the zoning request
conformed with in the proposed use.
The commissions did not recommend approval and when we carried it
to the City Commission we were denied on the same basis. When we proceded
to the County Commission, however, they unanimously approved it and felt that
i_t was praper f�r d2velopment.
At no time has anyone ever discussed the merits or demerits of the
zonin� proposal except from the standpoint that the city is ultimately going
to have to acquire the property.
I have indicated in the various meetings we have attended that we
would ask that the property be allowed to be developed or, in the alternative, if
the city is going to use it as a crosswinds runway, that they acquire it and
�o ahead and start condemnation proceedings.
We believe the application and the preliminary plat has met all of
the requirements showing elevations, drainage, location of streets, the
utilities and so forth. We believe the property is suited for the type of
development that Mr. Svennes and the other owners have proposed and are aware
of the avigation easements that restrict the height of structures that would

Re: Svennes Property Rezoning
be located on the northern part of the property. Taking those into consideration
the property can be ideally utilized for the purposes intended.
We believe that the multi-family and green area that is designated
to be used in the norchern part of the development meets the requirements of
the present zoning ordinances and have considered the city lagoons to the north
of the property. We understand also that the city is intending to make some
improvements to that lagoon area to conr�rm witn EFF► r��ui�ements on the
handling of sludge and do not believe that will cause problems in the develop-
ment. Certainly we are aware of those matters and have taken them into consid-
eration in the proposal .
With that background T received a telephone call from my client and
read in the paper where the city was going to reconsider the application that
they had previously denied. We appeared at the commission meeting on Tuesday,
March 23, and was advised that advice had 6een sought from the City Attorney
with regard to the authority to bring up the matter again. It is our under-
standing, and was advised at the time of the commission meeting on March 23,
that we were prec1uded from bringing the matter up for one year under the zoning
ordinance 6ecause we had been turned down initially. However, after much dis-
cussion there was a moti'on made and adopted to give first reading to an ordinance
that would grant exactly what we asked for. During the discussion it became
apparent that there was no concensus among the commissioners and you with regard
to how the matter might be handled. One commissioner indicated that he thought
the best idea was to trade property, I 6elieve you indicated that you thought.
it was proper for rezpning, or at least part of it, and various other opinions
were expressed.
�le are also aware of the discussion that was held at the city
commission meetir�g a wzek �r tv.o before r�arch 23 whPre the City Attorney advised
the commission that my clients had an i'deal cause of action for inverse condem-
nation from the standpoint that the city had turned us down solely on the basis
that it had been targeted for acquisition at sometime in the future.
l�lith that background I must state at this point that I hope the
motivation for reconsidering is proper and that the commission will rezone the
property and approve the preliminary plat as had been originally requested by
the owners. However, Z suspect very strongly that the reasons for bringing it
u� again is so that it can be discussed to "clear the record" and either
approve it or deny it on sound zoning and development criteria.
We have no objection to the approval of the ordinance which would
rezone the whole property and approve the preliminary plat. We do object to
any amendments to the ordinance as i't was given at it� first reading.

Re: Svennes Property Rezoning �
I am involved in a lengthy �ury trial and will not be able to attend
the commission meeting on April 6. T anticipate that the trial will go through
the following week. If the ordinance is not going to be approved as given in
its first reading, I would respectfully request a delay until such time as my
clients and I can be there to address the issue.
