At this meeting, the property owners expressed support for the proposed zoning changes. Two persons in opposition were noted on that date. After the neighborhood meeting, business owners in Phase Five met with staff and requested additional analysis. Based on further review, another meeting was held with the Lancaster East Business Association on January 27, 2010, where a revised zoning proposal was presented. One property owner remains opposed. Public hearings for the rezoning of these properties will be held by the Zoning Commission on April 14, 2010, and by the City Council on May 4, 2010.
