trying to sell his property for several years. Due to the R-1 zoning,it is making it difficult to sell the
property. He currently has a"Special Exception(Conditional Use)Permit that was granted in 1976,to
allow for Equipment Maintenance and Storage,Non-Commercial. As the Commission is aware,staff has
had discussions with Mr.Bongard about the possibility of rezoning the property to a B-4(Neighborhood
Business)zoning designation and amending the comprehensive plan designation to Commercial.Mr.
