You will recall that the City has expressed strong reservations about the potential loss of significant housing in connection with the ALUCP's B(i) compatibility zoning of the properties north of Eaton Road (owned by Greg Webb). This is a particularly crucial issue in view of Chico's future housing allocation as recently approved by the Butte County Association of Governments. Where these properties could potentially provide 550 to 920 needed residential units consistent with its current General Plan designation, the -B(1) compatibility zone would limit them to a total of 11. A further complication is that State law prohibits the downzoning of properties that can accommodate residential development where there is no corresponding upzoning of other properties. I would appreciate it if you would schedule a discussion of this matter on your February agenda. Maps showing several conceptual alternatives are attached for your consideration, and.I hope we can explore whether your Commission can support any alternative development of the property other than the current B(1) compatibility zone would allow. I hasten to add that the owner of the property is not necessarily in agreement with any of these alternatives. I will bring larger maps to the meeting to assist in our discussion. Combinations of zoning other than those I have attached are certainly possible; if it appears that any of these or any other alternatives could be supported by your Commission, I can then prepare a more detailed map for your further review. Thank you for your consideration of this request. Respectfully, Kim Seidler Planning Director g�� Made From Recycled Paper Letter to ALUC January 31, 2003 Page 2 Attachments: 1.
