The Northwest Quadrant area was 7 P & Z Minutes 3/21/95 annexed November Z, 1993 and was automatically zoned "R -20" Single Family District.

The new land use category can be located where it is deemed appropriate within the city, not just in the Northwest Quadrant area. The Planning and zoning Commission felt that even though some recreation uses are allowed in the existing commercial zoning districts, other uses were not compatible in this area. As a result of the new land use category, a new zoning district called Section 30, "RA" Recreation /Amusement District was adopted February 21, 1995.

The Heritage Foundation recommends consideration of amendments to Section 28, Central Business District relative to temporary outside festival uses. Staff requests authorization to set a public hearing April 18, 1995 to amend section 28 allowing automotive sales as a conditional use only and Section 28 regulating permitted temporary outside festival uses. Staff has noticed the increased number of used car lots along Northwest Highway. Automotive sales, and service, for new or used cars and trucks is a permitted use in the Highway Commercial District.
