Um, yes, I intend to support the motion. I think it meets the review criteria as set forth in the staff packet, um, including for the fact that this is an implementing zoning district from— for the land use designation under the Chugiak/Eagle River Comprehensive Plan update from 2006 that was put in place after the ordinance that, um, added the special limitations to this property.

I think a lot of the concerns, um, can and should be addressed through the building permit process. Um, not something that really plays into the criteria for the rezone directly.
