a zone change from Residential-Three (R-3) to General Commercial (GC) for
property located at 2221 Memorial Parkway; and

the Fort Thomas
Planning Commission found that the requested zone change is consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan and specifically the Land Use Plan Element which recommends

traffic volumes nor make additional use of public facilities.
