Again the city disregards the often mentioned "long range plan" that is forseen for the city, one of the hoped for goals being using residentially zoned land for "neighborhoods".
with the rezoning of residential zoned parcels for glam coamping of Ofland and now rezoning for solar fields, they change the outlook for a few pieces of silver, Judas-like.
it seems like the town land west of Staters is open for any money making scheme that comes along. our only "residential neighborhood" is Indian Cove subdivision and now a commercial glam campground will be "nextdoor" to that.
i purchased my home after viewing the closely adjacent land was zoned residential and expected homes to be lived in by full time residents, neighbors. Soon after moving in, the city allowed a multi-million dollar Airbnb to be built on nearby resisential land that would never be inhabited by a resident, thus being a commercial enterprise. now, two more slaps in the face with MORE rezoned land for commercial enterprises.
As i stand in my front yard looking down into the valley from high near the foothills, in my view are now this Airbnb, two large commercial solar fields and soon to be another, plus a commercial electrical substation.
The residential zoned land seems to be viewed as "expenadable" to the whims of money hungry council members and city manager. My plan so far has been to purchase 30 acres around me to buffer my home from the whims. it feels like "taxation without representation" which was the incentive of creating this country. I receive NO city provided benefits such as improvements or road maintainance. All talk of such items are only of concrete walkways, road maintainance, etc of dowtown areas.
"Gardner proceeded to dance around a straight answer, at first reiterating that the package goes into the general fund, then discussing potential penalty figures for fines and citations which might be levied against the property owner." Spot on! lol. Gardner doing what Gardner does best, dancing around a straight answer.
