The Planning Commission shall provide a written recommendation regarding whether each proposed map change is consistent with the comprehensive plan and other applicable adopted plans. The recommendation shall be based on the reasons articulated by Commission members voting in the majority, and the recommendation shall be developed as determined in the Commission’s Rules of Procedure. In addition to plan consistency, Commissioners may also consider other matters deemed appropriate by the Commission, which may include but are not limited to:

A. Compatibility with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby property and with the character of the neighborhood;

B. Suitability of the subject property for uses permitted by the current versus the proposed district;

C. Whether the proposed change tends to improve the balance of uses, or meets a specific demand in the City and County; and

D. The availability of adequate school, road, parks, wastewater treatment, water supply and stormwater drainage facilities for the proposed use.
