Synopsis:	Planning Action 2002-089, is a request for Annexation and a Zoning Map Change from Jackson County zoning RR-5 (Rural Residential) to City of Ashland zoning E-1 (Employment) for a 2.2 acre parcel located at 3151 East Main Street. The applicant is requesting a City zoning resignation of E-1, which is consistent with the property's Comprehensive Plan designation of Employment. The E-1 zone allows for a variety of commercial and light industrial uses. If the City Council approves the Annexation, the applicant intends to construct two buildings, each approximately 4,000 square feet in size, for light manufacturing use.
Recommendation:	At its meeting on February 11, 2003, the Planning Commission made a recommendation that the City Council approve the request for Annexation of the 2.2 acre parcel. No action is required by the City Council on the Site Review component of the application because this was approved by the Planning Commission.
Fiscal Impact:	No fiscal impact to the City of Ashland.
