The second meeting will be one week later, March 12, 1991, also in the City Hall, when the City Council meets and considers the zoning matter, taking into account the Zoning Commission's recommendations. Following is a brief explanation of the reason for proposing the zoning change. The proposed zoning change is to correct a commercial zoning deficiency in Manti City. When the zoning ordinance was first created in October 1981, the planners zoned off the main areas of commercial businesses as "commercial", without considering the businesses that were outside that area. Those areas continue to run their businesses, but are actually in "residential" areas. Some of these businesses include the Manti Motel, Manti House Inn, Temple Motel (at the time of the zoning), and Roy Hatch Realty, all of whom operate their businesses in the residential" zone. It is now time to protect these businesses, and give the commercial zoning the chance to expand to its potential, to induce new businesses to locate in the business center rather than be forced to the outside of the city limits to qualify for "commercial" status. This "forcing outside" of businesses is easily seen in many towns; Richfield, ML Pleasant, Nephi, and others, which ends up turning the center street businesses into dead boarded-u- p city centers, and pushes the new businesses to the outskirts of the city limits. If the commercial zoning classification were extended to include those businesses originally excluded, it would open up several blocks to possible use by new business, to the benefit of the industry and economy of Manti. It would make the Residen"commercial" zoning area in one area, instead of spread out in when tial property owners would benefit by being able to sell their property, they chose to, at higher rates. This change would expand the Main Street commercial zoning area to where it should have been in the first place. "spot-zoning- ." |
