which subject property is located, wherei~i the Planning Commission recommended to the
City Ceuncil that the land use policy for the northwe,t corner of State College Boulevard
and Romneya Drive be changed from low density residential to medium ciensity.

Plan Amendment, the petitioner is not providing sufficient ame~ities and buffering devices
as are deem2d necessary for the protection of the adjacent single family homes.
4. That in many instances in the past where multiple family uses have been pioposed
adjacent to single family developments, the Planning Commi:sion has required either
step-down or transitional zoning between these types of uses, or some other type of
buffering techrique to protect the integrity of existiny single family areas; and that

to the City or to the residents in close proximity.

the project rather than placing the burden of buffering upc~n the adjacent single farnily
homeowners.
7. That tliree persons appeared representing a consi~erable number of persons present
in the Council Chamber, and five letters and a petition signed by 87 property o•,:ners were
