She stated that to date 13 property owners have submitted letters in opposition to the request for zoning. Nelson said that the Planning and Zoning Commission held a Public Hearing on September 18, 2018 and recommended denial with a 5-2 vote which will require a Council super -majority vote to be approved.

Gonzalez asked McNabb about the ability of the City to enforce deed restrictions in perpetuity if they are accepted by the current property owner. McNabb explained that deed restrictions are enforced by the property owner and normally cities are not part of deed restriction. Foster responded that the nearby neighborhood has no HOA in neighborhood but the owner would be happy to add the City as an enforcing body. He added that in addition to the draft deed restrictions provided, the owner plans to include a two year hold on amending the deed restrictions without a 100% support of the residents. Gonzalez responded that he understood but was trying to find the most equitable solution to meet the needs of the City for this type of use and that he wasn't sure if the deed restrictions were the best way to meet the needs of the neighborhood residents. Foster added that the deed restrictions would extend the entire property area beyond what was being discussed at the current meeting. Gonzalez responded that he would be will to move this forward to a second reading and allow staff to review the options related to deed restrictions and a possible third party to enforce them.
