Resolution 5594 - Laserfiche WebLink

WHEREAS,the Planning Commission did make a recommendation to approve the requests with conditions following March 1, 2005 public hearing; and WHEREAS, the City Council Finds: 1. The purpose for the requested Comprehensive Plan land use map amendment is to make it possible for PEMC to expand in order to meet projected population(patient) growth over the next 20 years. 2. The need for the proposed expansion will address a service capacity demand issue which, at the present time, PEMC is often unable to meet. 3. PEMC has made a convincing case to the City Council that the expansion to the east is the best alternative it has available at this time, in terms of cost, timing, certainty, and operational efficiencies. 4. To achieve the requested land use changes and related provisions, City Council needs to; a. Amend the Comprehensive Plan Land Use map in the proposed expansion area(block 248), and Rockefeller Avenue from 13th Street to 14th Street, from Single Family(1.3)to Hospital(2.4), as indicated on Exhibit "A"; and b. Rezone the entire Colby Campus which is designated Hospital(2.4), including the expansion area, from R-2 (Single Family) to R-2-I(Institution). 5. This Resolution constitutes City Council's support for the PEMC proposed expansion based on submittal of a master plan with specific phases of expansion, outlined here as: Phase 1: Completed and opened in 2002. Expansion of the Pavilion for Women and Children, located at the Pacific Campus. Phase 2A Proposed Completion in 2007. Develop and construct a community cancer center in partnership with local physician groups. As part of the cancer center the facility will provide medical physician office space and a 600 car parking garage. This phase proposes the demolition or moving of 21 of 22 Donovan homes in the Donovan District for temporary surface parking and construction staging. (Note: Currently a Special Property Use (SPU) permit will be required for the cancer center and parking facility. The SPU will include a review process separate from this docket request, or PEMC may use the institutional overlay, depending on outcome and timing of the decisions.) - 2 -
