Sorry, I didn't know if you knew you were first.

Thanks, Joe.

Yeah.

All right.

My name's Joe Green with Community Planning and Development

and as you said, we have a rezoning at 385 South Zuni Street.

Jumping in, we'll go over the requests,

the location and context,

little bit about the process we've been through this thus far and then get into

the review criteria so the applicant is looking to go from B1 with specific

waivers to the property that limit a lot of what that B1 does to emx3 which is a

mixed-use district in the urban edge context that allows three stories of

height and a variety of commercial office and residential uses B1 in

general allows a lot of office residential and commercial uses but in

this case a lot of those are waived but I have a slide up about that in a couple

seconds the applicant in this case really just wants to make to use the

existing building as a medical office though obviously if the rezoning passed

redevelopment would also be an option and getting into the location and context

It's in Council District 7, Councilmember Elvides' district.

It's in the Athmar Park neighborhood in this big shopping center, the Alameda Square shopping center.

As you can see, there's a lot of different zone districts kind of surrounding it.

To the west, you have ETUC.

To the south, you have a single-unit district.

To the north is mixed use.

And then just across the street, you have a Costco business center, so really big, big-box development

with lots of parking.

So the waivers waive a lot of different commercial uses.

I listed them all out in the staff report,

but there's about 20 to 25 uses that are not allowed

because of the waivers.

One of those is medical clinic,

which is a specific interest to the applicant,

but there's a lot of other ones as well.

It also limits the total floor area.

The first floor has to be 2,500 square feet in size.

It allows the second floor to go up to 1,800 square feet,

and then it also limits the height to 32 feet.

The requested district goes up to 45 feet, three stories, so a little bit taller.

The existing land use as a single unit, I believe it's being used for an office use.

To the south, you have single unit.

To the west, you have single unit immediately adjacent.

To the north, there's a property owned by the city,

which I believe is being used as a day shelter or a cold weather shelter.

at the moment. And then across the street, again, you have the giant suburban style commercial area.

Here's a picture on the top of the current building. It looks like a house or a duplex,

maybe, but seems to have been used for commercial uses. A picture of the property to the south,

which is kind of a lot of single-story, single-unit homes in the area. And then across

the street again you can see that big shopping center. So the informational
