And this is Commissioner wrote. We'll we'll go ahead and get our work meeting started at 5:37 PM. We have everyone in attendance | 00:00:00 | |
except Commissioner Font who's excused and I believe. | 00:00:05 | |
We're missing Commissioner Gong. | 00:00:11 | |
I don't know if anyone's heard from her, so she might be attending late. | 00:00:13 | |
OK. | 00:00:19 | |
So with that, we will. | 00:00:21 | |
Get started and is a carrier, John, that's going to be presenting these items for us today. | 00:00:24 | |
I will be presenting the items. All right, Kerry, kick us off. | 00:00:29 | |
All right. | 00:00:34 | |
Item number one. Pretty straightforward on this one. This is a existing office building. | 00:00:36 | |
Ohh, under one ownership they are converting that to divide each office suite into separate ownership. So that requires a | 00:00:43 | |
conversion to condominium plat. | 00:00:49 | |
So this is a review of all in one essentially conceptual preliminary final. The final approval can be deferred to staff approval. | 00:00:55 | |
Any questions on that one? | 00:01:06 | |
And just a simple I'll go ahead, Murray. | 00:01:10 | |
I was just going to say to simplify it for me because I'm a simple stupid kind of guy. | 00:01:13 | |
Um, they are not doing any kind of building. They're not renovating, changing the structure in any way. They're literally just | 00:01:17 | |
doing paperwork so that they can. | 00:01:21 | |
Lease or sell rather than lease the units, right. So they do have building permits for each unit because they are doing | 00:01:25 | |
renovations or tenant improvements for those individual units. That's all handled under building permit. This is just for the | 00:01:32 | |
vertical plat to separate those into individual parcels essentially. | 00:01:39 | |
And and they've done all their paperwork, it looks like. And yes, had all the the T's crossed and eyes dotted. And yes, alright, | 00:01:47 | |
fantastic. What were you gonna ask Marty? | 00:01:51 | |
2nd. | 00:02:07 | |
The last one reads all improvements to meet current building code. | 00:02:07 | |
Is that it? | 00:02:12 | |
Suggested. | 00:02:15 | |
Or is that a? | 00:02:16 | |
After the fact included. | 00:02:17 | |
So that is just handled under their building permits. | 00:02:19 | |
That's handled with their building permits. | 00:02:24 | |
So when the building official reviewed this application, he just said that. | 00:02:27 | |
It's required to meet building code any improvements that they make. | 00:02:33 | |
Managed under their building permits. | 00:02:39 | |
Why we mentioned the? | 00:02:45 | |
Where? | 00:02:47 | |
Is that a suggestion that would include that as a condition of business? | 00:02:49 | |
It's somewhat yes, because it is included in the checklist. So when they're submitting their application to convert to a | 00:02:54 | |
condominium, it's it states on there, but any improvements made to meet building code. So that's just the building official | 00:03:01 | |
confirming that all improvements that will be done in the building. | 00:03:08 | |
In this in the conversion. | 00:03:16 | |
They'll all need the building code. | 00:03:19 | |
Above that under the Public Works City Engineer. | 00:03:22 | |
Section it says replacement of curb, gutter, sidewalk OK. | 00:03:25 | |
Is that a conclusion or just? | 00:03:30 | |
Again, something that. | 00:03:32 | |
To be down and going forward. | 00:03:34 | |
No, it wouldn't need to be done as part of their condo plat. It's. | 00:03:36 | |
Just to conclusion that the city engineer made looking at their checklist saying yes, this is fine. | 00:03:42 | |
Thanks. | 00:03:50 | |
And when anyone goes to make a motion, it's the staff findings that. | 00:03:52 | |
We need to bring up. | 00:03:56 | |
Not the. | 00:03:58 | |
TRC report above that. Is that right? | 00:04:00 | |
Right. You're just doing the findings that are in the staff findings under the recommendation, OK. | 00:04:03 | |
Perfect. | 00:04:08 | |
Any other questions on the first item? | 00:04:09 | |
Alright. | 00:04:12 | |
Care if you want to take just a second real quick chair? | 00:04:13 | |
So if you notice that it's the. So this is the concept, preliminary and final plat all at once. | 00:04:16 | |
So. | 00:04:22 | |
You can approve them. | 00:04:23 | |
And be done or you can. | 00:04:25 | |
You know if if the Planning Commission finds that some of them aren't completed. | 00:04:27 | |
I don't think that would be the case, but if you did, you could separate those out to. | 00:04:32 | |
It's noted. Appreciate that, council if. | 00:04:36 | |
There is any concern with approving all three tonight we can. | 00:04:39 | |
Reduce that back in whatever stages we feel like need additional. | 00:04:43 | |
Oversight to come through us, but it sounds like staff has. | 00:04:48 | |
Definitely gone through the. | 00:04:52 | |
Motions on this one. | 00:04:54 | |
Thank you. | 00:04:56 | |
OK. Second item is a zone map amendment. This is a rezone on Westmore Rd. from public to R110. | 00:04:57 | |
It's a church property that the church is selling, so the applicant. | 00:05:07 | |
Or the property then requires a rezone. | 00:05:13 | |
Since the use of a church would be discontinued. | 00:05:17 | |
So that is. | 00:05:21 | |
The application on that one, Does anyone have any questions on that item? | 00:05:23 | |
The first page of the staff report. | 00:05:29 | |
Office. | 00:05:34 | |
Back from the. | 00:05:36 | |
Previous template. | 00:05:38 | |
On the second page. | 00:05:42 | |
I think it's the. | 00:05:46 | |
Second column is grayed out. | 00:05:51 | |
Property. | 00:05:56 | |
Zoning. | 00:05:57 | |
As the property owners only general plan district. | 00:05:59 | |
Maybe I'm calling it Ohh. | 00:06:02 | |
Right here. | 00:06:05 | |
So ohh on the cover sheet. | 00:06:08 | |
Ohh yeah. | 00:06:12 | |
Sorry. | 00:06:13 | |
Yeah, it looks like that was probably just the leftover from the first. | 00:06:14 | |
Application just didn't get changed. | 00:06:17 | |
Yeah, that's a drop down list. | 00:06:19 | |
It's alphabetical order, so I probably slipped and hit PO rather than public. | 00:06:22 | |
In public. In public, yeah. Yeah. | 00:06:26 | |
Is there any requirements to get that fixed or is that just something you can adjust in the final report? | 00:06:31 | |
Yeah, it's just, it's just being as a cover letter. So that shows gives you an opportunity to separate the staff report out. It | 00:06:36 | |
doesn't really has no bearing on the application at all, OK. | 00:06:41 | |
It's just an administrative thing. | 00:06:47 | |
Good call out, Marty. Thank you. | 00:06:49 | |
And then this is just defaulting to the R110 zone that it's already in surrounding the area, right? Yes, OK. | 00:06:53 | |
Any other questions on? | 00:06:59 | |
I had. This is Commissioner Prince. I had a question. | 00:07:01 | |
In terms of the streets, Delaware and Westmore W West. | 00:07:04 | |
Yes, Westmore. | 00:07:10 | |
Did they ever connect? | 00:07:12 | |
I am not sure if they did a how long that church has existed there. | 00:07:15 | |
It looks like it's been. I mean, that's not a. | 00:07:21 | |
Current style, certainly. | 00:07:24 | |
Yeah, because it does kind of bulb out like a circle wood. Uh-huh. I just didn't know if that may have existed in that way prior | 00:07:28 | |
to the church and built there. | 00:07:33 | |
I shouldn't know if that was something that we had information available to us about. OK. But the current property that we're | 00:07:39 | |
reviewing tonight is located on Westmore officially, even though it can be accessed on Delaware. You can get to it. Yeah, OK. | 00:07:45 | |
There's one question. | 00:07:53 | |
Department. | 00:07:57 | |
Outside. | 00:08:00 | |
Right across the street in an easement between. | 00:08:04 | |
Not the one on the corner, but the one next to the one on the corner, I believe, right? | 00:08:08 | |
Yeah. | 00:08:12 | |
OK. | 00:08:14 | |
OK. | 00:08:15 | |
OK, ready to move to item 3? This is another zoning map amendment request for a rezone from the R143 zone to R110. | 00:08:17 | |
Located on 4980 S and 4990 S Holiday Blvd. 2 neighboring parcels. | 00:08:29 | |
These two parcels don't conform to the R143 size. They are currently .55 acres and .7. | 00:08:37 | |
0 acres. | 00:08:47 | |
Um. | 00:08:48 | |
The applicant's intent is to. | 00:08:50 | |
With the smaller minimum lot size under the R110 zone to shift some of the property from each of those parcels onto the back | 00:08:53 | |
property that fronts onto Cottonwood Drive. | 00:09:00 | |
So in order to do that, they would need a. | 00:09:09 | |
An R110 zone. | 00:09:13 | |
The proposal brings the property line. | 00:09:14 | |
So it will follow there's a property to the South side. | 00:09:20 | |
That. | 00:09:25 | |
One of the properties you can see has that kind of L shape that comes down. | 00:09:26 | |
That is the. | 00:09:31 | |
Maybe, John, do you want to bring up the assessors map on that that shows the? | 00:09:33 | |
That third the South property which isn't in the application. | 00:09:41 | |
That property is .40 acres. | 00:09:45 | |
The applicants proposal will make. | 00:09:48 | |
There are two parcels. | 00:09:51 | |
About that same size. | 00:09:53 | |
So creating a straight line across. | 00:09:56 | |
Their parcel so it takes the jug. | 00:09:59 | |
The applicants are David and Stephanie Bywater. | 00:10:03 | |
Ohh the. | 00:10:06 | |
The South one. | 00:10:08 | |
This one. | 00:10:10 | |
We can 250-5037 is that Oh oh on South side one to the north John. | 00:10:13 | |
Down. | 00:10:24 | |
You. | 00:10:25 | |
It's this this one. | 00:10:26 | |
That one, Yeah. | 00:10:28 | |
Zero 41, yeah. | 00:10:30 | |
And they're not part of the application, so they're basically. | 00:10:36 | |
Go up like that, but the property line being proposed would follow essentially that O 42 and O32 are the impacted properties | 00:10:40 | |
besides O 44. Is that correct? Yes. | 00:10:46 | |
So that Ohh, sorry go the property that's on the north they access. | 00:10:55 | |
Their property through the Holiday Pines PUD. | 00:11:01 | |
And the holiday Holiday Pines is zoned as R110. | 00:11:06 | |
Right. | 00:11:20 | |
Cover. Cover. | 00:11:22 | |
1st. | 00:11:24 | |
2nd. | 00:11:27 | |
Approval. | 00:11:31 | |
Drop down to. | 00:11:35 | |
Under the General Plan of Bootable Analysis. | 00:11:38 | |
There are 1/2. | 00:11:42 | |
3/4 paragraphs. | 00:11:43 | |
5 paragraphs, the 4th one starts considering the size. | 00:11:44 | |
Yes. | 00:11:50 | |
And then? | 00:11:51 | |
About halfway between that and the adjacent property on the South side. | 00:11:54 | |
.4 acres. | 00:11:58 | |
Staff believes that the parcels in question could. | 00:12:00 | |
Reasonably. | 00:12:03 | |
Would be considered. | 00:12:05 | |
All within the residential single family. | 00:12:06 | |
Stable. | 00:12:09 | |
Just as reasonably. | 00:12:13 | |
Be considered otherwise? | 00:12:15 | |
Or the other. | 00:12:19 | |
So that is that circled area on Figure 2. | 00:12:20 | |
You can see that the. | 00:12:26 | |
Area that. | 00:12:29 | |
Is the protected area curves down? | 00:12:30 | |
There's not property boundaries on there to make a firm determination with the size of those properties being non conforming to | 00:12:36 | |
the R143 zone. That is what that basis was. | 00:12:44 | |
Or what that decision was based on to be within the stable zone? | 00:12:53 | |
If you wanted to go by the what the zone is. | 00:13:02 | |
Then it would. | 00:13:08 | |
Involved within likely. | 00:13:10 | |
Be more likely to fall within the protected zone. | 00:13:12 | |
Or the protected area. | 00:13:15 | |
However, it'd be non compliant for the size of homes that are currently in that zone that exists today, right? | 00:13:20 | |
See, I don't know that I I when you look at the. | 00:13:32 | |
It's the aerial map. | 00:13:36 | |
Like the where you pulled up the assessor stuff, John. | 00:13:39 | |
When you look at that, you can see a street that corresponds to one of to that. | 00:13:42 | |
The image with the protected and the stable and it looks like it would. | 00:13:51 | |
I see what you're saying that there's a reasonable. | 00:13:57 | |
You could reasonably say it falls within the. | 00:14:00 | |
The. | 00:14:04 | |
Smaller not the protected, but the stable. | 00:14:06 | |
Zone. | 00:14:09 | |
If you kind of tried to overlay the two of them together, ohh wow, good job John. Yeah so I believe this one. | 00:14:10 | |
They should be labeled. I'm not sure why we don't have labels that is. Actually, that's Cottonwood Lane, Cottonwood. | 00:14:17 | |
The curved one that's on the east side of. | 00:14:23 | |
Of holiday Blvd. That kind of curves down to the South. That one's Flamingo. | 00:14:28 | |
And then the older one that's more toward the bottom is Casto. | 00:14:36 | |
I think you could make the case that. | 00:14:41 | |
It could fall within the stable zone because of where we're talking about. | 00:14:44 | |
OK. | 00:14:52 | |
This Commissioner Roach, just for those that weren't here 12 months ago or just shy of when. | 00:14:53 | |
The bywaters originally came in. | 00:14:59 | |
For. | 00:15:02 | |
Approval on the basketball barn that they were building in their backyard. This is essentially adjacent immediately to it and I | 00:15:03 | |
believe this is allowing them to kind of put some more buffer around that structure. | 00:15:09 | |
Yeah, which? Which? | 00:15:16 | |
Sort of prompted the question on my part. | 00:15:20 | |
About. | 00:15:22 | |
Why it wasn't raised there? | 00:15:24 | |
Some incremental creep or what? | 00:15:26 | |
Question that's a That's a question we can ask the applicant, but I believe at the time there was some concerns about. | 00:15:28 | |
And I could be mistaken on this, but it vaguely memory fading here's. | 00:15:36 | |
Accurate. Then I think there was something concerned about the building height. | 00:15:41 | |
At that time. | 00:15:45 | |
And by pushing out their property line a little bit more, that allows for that additional height without. | 00:15:46 | |
Conforming to additional requirements per the quote code. Does that sound right, John? | 00:15:51 | |
I mean, yes, I mean you theoretically, yeah, you soon as you're building heights or your lot sizes get larger, buildings get | 00:15:59 | |
larger, but accessory buildings are maxed at 20 feet regardless. | 00:16:04 | |
If they can move it within the building pad of the. | 00:16:10 | |
Of the house. And yeah, they can go up to like 40 feet. | 00:16:12 | |
But if it's shoved way far in the back then they regardless of how big their lot size is, it's it. It limit maxes out of 20. | 00:16:16 | |
I remember the discussion of the Basketball Barn. I do not remember what we ended up. | 00:16:24 | |
Doing. | 00:16:30 | |
About. | 00:16:31 | |
It was the size. The footprint size was a conditional use permit. | 00:16:32 | |
Right. I just didn't remember if that actually gone ahead and built it or not. Yeah, OK, yeah, there was approved, approved it. | 00:16:36 | |
So now they're they're coming back and and they want to just basically change some property lines that look to conform. | 00:16:44 | |
With the the zones that are there, but we can have that discussion when the applicant comes up. | 00:16:51 | |
And they do have an approved building permit for the basketball barn and that's based off of their current lot size OK. | 00:16:56 | |
Thank you. I have a question about this one. | 00:17:03 | |
I'm related to the Bywater, so I figured I should recuse myself from that, but I don't know if there's like a formal. | 00:17:06 | |
Process to do that. | 00:17:12 | |
From that specific item. | 00:17:15 | |
So we had a planning commissioner, that was. | 00:17:17 | |
An architect on a project. | 00:17:21 | |
So. | 00:17:23 | |
He. | 00:17:26 | |
In that situation, when there's a financial relationship, it needs to be done, you know, in writing and it needs to be. But if | 00:17:27 | |
there's not a financial relationship and it's a familiar relationship. | 00:17:33 | |
You can note it and then I would recommend you recuse yourself, but I don't think you're actually required to but. | 00:17:40 | |
If I was advising you, which I am. | 00:17:49 | |
It would be noted on the record and then recuse yourself. OK, And I should have asked this earlier in the week or when I when we | 00:17:53 | |
first got the packet. | 00:17:57 | |
Is there a process for that or do we just say it? | 00:18:01 | |
You would just say it. You say, you know, I have a I have a potential conflict of interest on this particular matter. So I'm going | 00:18:04 | |
to accuse myself, OK, from any vote on this vote or discussion, that's how I would. | 00:18:09 | |
And you would only recuse yourself for item 3. | 00:18:14 | |
Yes. | 00:18:16 | |
Thank you. | 00:18:18 | |
All right, then the. | 00:18:21 | |
Any possibility? | 00:18:24 | |
State. | 00:18:29 | |
Future. | 00:18:41 | |
And. | 00:18:43 | |
Whatever they proposed for accessory buildings would have to meet standards with zoning. | 00:18:52 | |
With an increased property size, there are some changes that would. | 00:19:00 | |
That would. | 00:19:06 | |
Come about because of that, but it is mostly on lot coverage as a percentage. Setbacks are a percentage just based off of the lot | 00:19:07 | |
size. | 00:19:11 | |
So the larger the property. | 00:19:16 | |
You have larger setbacks that are required. | 00:19:19 | |
So by increasing that property size they would have an increase in in setbacks that would be required for any accessory building. | 00:19:23 | |
OK. | 00:19:35 | |
Any other questions on item number whenever we're on 3/3? | 00:19:35 | |
OK. And then finally the. | 00:19:41 | |
The the one we're all excited for this evening #4. | 00:19:43 | |
All right, so item number four is a rezone request for three properties. | 00:19:47 | |
One is at 4437 Butternut Road or Drive. | 00:19:54 | |
The other two 2475 E 4500 S. | 00:19:59 | |
And 2485 E 4500 S. | 00:20:04 | |
Three separate property owners that have joined an application going from R18 is what the the property on Butternut Rd. is zoned | 00:20:08 | |
as. The other two properties on 4500 S are zoned as R110. | 00:20:16 | |
The proposals to rezone all three as R28. | 00:20:24 | |
The R2 aid zone allows for a single family house on. | 00:20:29 | |
On 5000 square feet. | 00:20:35 | |
Or an attached. | 00:20:37 | |
Unit on. | 00:20:40 | |
8000 square feet. | 00:20:42 | |
This is Commissioner Prince. | 00:20:47 | |
I see that in the summary they. | 00:20:49 | |
These properties were initially historically zoned as R18. | 00:20:52 | |
But. | 00:20:57 | |
Now two and three are R110. What did that just happen when holiday was incorporated or just right? | 00:20:59 | |
Yes. Was there a reason that it was changed? Likely that most of the properties around that met the R2, the R110 lot size. | 00:21:07 | |
There was. | 00:21:20 | |
On the county's historical maps, there was a lot of variation in zones. There was little pockets of our two little pockets of R18. | 00:21:21 | |
You can see in the in the exhibit there, there's an R210 that's right across the street that is somewhat smaller. | 00:21:30 | |
So. | 00:21:38 | |
It was. | 00:21:39 | |
And maybe John can fill in on some of that rezoning or that zoning process with incorporation, but largely just to create more | 00:21:40 | |
consistent zones across larger areas. Historically, R1A, this wasn't an R110 that became an R18. | 00:21:48 | |
Historically, our 1/8 when we incorporated, we rezoned A majority of the city. | 00:21:57 | |
To closely resemble what the actual land use was. | 00:22:02 | |
In this case, because these are a little bit larger, lots R110. | 00:22:05 | |
Was selected for this area. | 00:22:09 | |
Much larger lots than R18 were. | 00:22:13 | |
So. | 00:22:16 | |
That's what the council at the time selected the zone scheme for this neighborhood to be R110. | 00:22:17 | |
Give us a. | 00:22:26 | |
3. | 00:22:26 | |
Edu. | 00:22:28 | |
Next year. | 00:22:30 | |
Right. | 00:22:32 | |
Um, so and then a larger discussion around a single family zone versus an R2 zone as we're. | 00:22:33 | |
Looking to rezone up to a R2R2. Zoning would allow for separate two separate units or however many dwelling units would be allowed | 00:22:40 | |
on a parcel based off of its size. | 00:22:47 | |
To be legally rentable. | 00:22:53 | |
The difference with an Adu, an internal Adu is rentable. | 00:22:57 | |
If the property owner lives on site. | 00:23:03 | |
An external Edu in order to be rentable under the current code. | 00:23:06 | |
Has to be located on a lot that is twice the size as the minimum lot size in the zone. | 00:23:11 | |
So if you have a 10,000 square foot property in an R10R110 zone and wanted to build a detached. | 00:23:18 | |
Accessory dwelling unit. You would not be able to rent that accessory dwelling unit because it's not on a parcel That's twice. | 00:23:28 | |
The size that's required for the for the zone. | 00:23:36 | |
So that's the difference with. | 00:23:39 | |
Between an internal accessory dwelling unit and what a property owner can do with an internal unit. | 00:23:42 | |
Versus an external dwelling unit, it's. | 00:23:48 | |
Much more difficult for a property owner to rent an external dwelling unit than an internal. | 00:23:51 | |
And even if the property owner lived on site. | 00:23:57 | |
They would for an external. They would still need to meet that requirement, Is that right? | 00:24:01 | |
So that's where an R2 zone would be more favorable because they could rent an external dwelling unit. | 00:24:07 | |
If they meet the lot size requirements for for that. | 00:24:17 | |
As long as it has 5000 square feet in an R28, for example, it would require. | 00:24:20 | |
To 10,000 square feet, yes. Yeah. Yeah. | 00:24:26 | |
Because it would be two separate dwelling units detached from each other. | 00:24:30 | |
In our packet we've got a future land use map. | 00:24:36 | |
Which the date I've. | 00:24:40 | |
When I looked it up I had 2000 on it and. | 00:24:42 | |
Or 2020, excuse me. | 00:24:45 | |
Alright. | 00:24:48 | |
Was that when this particular area was changed to the map we have, or was that a previous decision to? | 00:24:49 | |
2020. | 00:24:57 | |
Green now. | 00:24:59 | |
John, can I defer that question to you? Are you talking about the general plan map? | 00:25:01 | |
Yeah, the future land use map at 2.3 that we have in the packet. | 00:25:05 | |
Yeah, that's from the general plan, Yeah. So that that general plan map has had several iterations to it, but. | 00:25:10 | |
This area really hasn't changed. | 00:25:17 | |
In long raised land use. | 00:25:19 | |
Since 2009. | 00:25:21 | |
OK, so it's been there for a long time, but this is a the idea has been around at least till 2000 and 2010. | 00:25:23 | |
And in looking at that map. | 00:25:30 | |
It doesn't be. Didn't appear to be done with precision. | 00:25:33 | |
In the sense that it identified which lots. | 00:25:37 | |
Could or could not. | 00:25:40 | |
No. | 00:25:42 | |
General plans usually don't OK. They're more of a. | 00:25:43 | |
Sort of a blurry bubble chart type idea. | 00:25:47 | |
The one consistent thing I noticed Tell me if I'm wrong, but it's always on. | 00:25:51 | |
Major roads. | 00:25:57 | |
I think 66 feet is the holiday definition of a major Rd. | 00:25:58 | |
Major Rd. being a collectors, yes IS is 60 foot wide or wider. | 00:26:05 | |
OK. | 00:26:09 | |
Kerry, John, I don't think you've seen an application where. | 00:26:13 | |
Three property owners. | 00:26:16 | |
Consolidated. | 00:26:17 | |
Feedback on? | 00:26:18 | |
Presume that we've. | 00:26:20 | |
Derivative. | 00:26:21 | |
Granted. | 00:26:23 | |
Or. | 00:26:25 | |
Or is there an all or all or nothing? No, it's one application and just to remind on a rezone, the Planning Commission is making a | 00:26:29 | |
recommendation to the City Council. | 00:26:33 | |
Is a legislative, so the Council has to actually take this up, so. | 00:26:38 | |
But no, because it's a single application, it's an all or nothing. You either recommend all three. | 00:26:42 | |
The recommendation? | 00:26:47 | |
Say that again, even though we're just making a recommendation. | 00:26:50 | |
Yeah, yeah, I mean. | 00:26:53 | |
Yeah, you make a recommendation to all of it, I mean. | 00:26:54 | |
Yeah, it's one application, so you take it as one. | 00:26:57 | |
One decision. | 00:27:01 | |
Any other questions on item 4? | 00:27:06 | |
All right. | 00:27:11 | |
With that, I think we can. | 00:27:12 | |
Conclude our work meeting and unless anyone on the Commission needs a quick moment to. | 00:27:14 | |
Rest. | 00:27:20 | |
A quick moment, we will take a 2 minute break then before we get started with our official meeting. | 00:27:22 | |
That's right. | 00:27:29 | |
It's OK. | 00:27:34 | |
Uh. | 00:27:35 | |
Alright. | 00:27:36 | |
Yeah. | 00:27:37 | |
Sugar. Sugar. | 00:27:39 | |
They're closed as far as. | 00:30:20 | |
Yeah. | 00:31:11 | |
All right. | 00:31:39 | |
Everybody, OK? This is Commissioner Roach. | 00:31:40 | |
I'd like to. | 00:31:44 | |
I will see you. | 00:31:46 | |
Again. | 00:31:47 | |
Call the. | 00:31:49 | |
Meeting of our Planning Commission, September 19th, 2023 to order. | 00:31:51 | |
And we have 5 different items on our agenda tonight. | 00:31:56 | |
We have a. | 00:32:01 | |
Subdivide and then we have three zone amendments and then approval of minutes. | 00:32:04 | |
And before we get started with our meeting, I've asked Commissioner Bilinsky to. | 00:32:09 | |
Quickly read for us the kind of rules of the road that we follow as the Planning Commission. It's a requirement at the start of | 00:32:14 | |
all meetings. So with that if you would please. | 00:32:18 | |
I think you the City of Holiday Planning Commission. | 00:32:22 | |
Is a volunteer citizen board. | 00:32:26 | |
Whose function is to review land uses, plans and other special studies, make recommendation to the City Council on proposed zoning | 00:32:28 | |
maps. | 00:32:33 | |
An ordinance changes and approve conditional use. | 00:32:37 | |
And subdivisions. | 00:32:42 | |
The Planning Commission does not initiate land use applications. | 00:32:43 | |
Rather acts on applications as they are submitted. | 00:32:48 | |
Commissioners do not meet with applicants except for at publicly noticed meetings. | 00:32:51 | |
Commissioners attempt to visit each property on the agenda where the location the nature of the neighborhood. | 00:32:57 | |
Existing structures and uses related to the proposed changes are noted. | 00:33:03 | |
Decisions are based on observations, recommendations from professional planning staff. | 00:33:08 | |
The city's general plan, zoning ordinances and other reports by all verbal and written comments. | 00:33:14 | |
And by evidence submitted, all of which are a part of the public record. | 00:33:22 | |
Excellent. Thank you very much for that. I appreciate it. | 00:33:27 | |
And so with that, the first item that we have on our agenda tonight is the Highland 4040, excuse me, 4141 office condominium | 00:33:30 | |
subdivision. | 00:33:35 | |
And I'd like to ask Carrie Marsh to go ahead and give us a report on that, if she would. | 00:33:40 | |
Thank you, Commissioner Roach. | 00:33:50 | |
Presenting on. | 00:33:52 | |
The first item Highland 4141 office condominiums. | 00:33:54 | |
This is a subdivision, converting an existing office use from a single ownership into multiple ownerships. | 00:33:59 | |
For each office suite. | 00:34:10 | |
This requires a vertical plat to be recorded at Salt Lake County. | 00:34:12 | |
To create those 12 individual units from the existing so they can be individually owned. | 00:34:19 | |
Um. | 00:34:26 | |
The application has been reviewed by the Technical Review committee and the comments from each department has been noted in the | 00:34:27 | |
staff report. | 00:34:31 | |
And the tiers's recommendation is that the Commission hold the required planning or? | 00:34:35 | |
They're required public hearing and consider any comments presented by the public. | 00:34:41 | |
Staff has found that all of the required elements have been submitted and the application's been complete. | 00:34:47 | |
The TRC can therefore recommend that the Commission approve the preliminary subdivision plat as well as the, and then defer the | 00:34:55 | |
final plat to staff approval. | 00:35:00 | |
I will have the applicant come up and they can talk about the their application in more detail and answer any questions that the | 00:35:07 | |
Commission may have. | 00:35:12 | |
Thank you very much. And with that, do we have the applicant here tonight? | 00:35:17 | |
Hi, I'm Mike McFarland with Stout Building Contractors. I'm the project manager. | 00:35:32 | |
Performing some of the remodels that are under building permit already. | 00:35:37 | |
Mike, could I just ask you to give us your address, please? My address is 245 N Vine Street. | 00:35:40 | |

Salt Lake City. | 00:35:47 | |
84103 Excellent. Thank you. | 00:35:49 | |
All right. And if you want to, just give us a quick. | 00:35:53 | |
Version of what? Anything that you want to add to staff's report on. | 00:35:57 | |
What we're doing with this? | 00:36:02 | |
Or what you're applying for tonight. Yeah, as as Kerry mentioned, it's a an existing single owner office space. | 00:36:04 | |
Being converted into condominium spaces with some common areas. | 00:36:11 | |
That include the restrooms entrance. | 00:36:15 | |
Upgrades to the ADA access to the building. | 00:36:18 | |
And then each plat would be sold. | 00:36:23 | |
And another building permit would be required in order for those. | 00:36:26 | |
New new buyers to. | 00:36:31 | |
Remodel for their needs and. | 00:36:33 | |
Those upgrades for that? | 00:36:37 | |
So currently the project is doing the common spaces. | 00:36:40 | |
Upgrades to those which include the hallways. | 00:36:44 | |
Entrance entrances and emergency stair exits. | 00:36:48 | |
Upgrades to the railings and flooring for the common areas. | 00:36:53 | |
As well as. | 00:36:57 | |
New Windows, new facade to the building to modernize that. | 00:36:58 | |
Thank you. | 00:37:04 | |
Any questions from the commissioners? From the for the applicant? | 00:37:05 | |
OK. I think we can have you sit down. Thank you. | 00:37:09 | |
With that, we'll go ahead and open the public meeting. Any members of the public that are here to speak on this particular | 00:37:12 | |
application tonight or welcome to come up. | 00:37:17 | |
Do we have anyone here tonight that wishes to make a comment on this? | 00:37:23 | |
OK. | 00:37:29 | |
And does not look like we have anyone here tonight that wishes to speak on that. So with that, we'll go ahead and close the public | 00:37:30 | |
meeting. | 00:37:33 | |
And Commissioners, do we have any discussion on any of the? | 00:37:37 | |
Information that's been presented to us on this application. | 00:37:43 | |
Takes. | 00:37:50 | |
Good morning. | 00:37:50 | |
Mission Briggs. | 00:37:51 | |
I I think we're quite familiar with this application now and I don't have any concerns or questions and and and ready to make a | 00:37:53 | |
motion unless others have comments. | 00:37:58 | |
I think you're all set. Go ahead. | 00:38:05 | |
Commissioner Banks moves to approve. | 00:38:08 | |
The concept and preliminary plan. | 00:38:11 | |
Submitted by the applicant. | 00:38:14 | |
For the Highland 4141 office condominiums. | 00:38:16 | |
On. | 00:38:20 | |
4141 S Highland Drive. | 00:38:22 | |
Based on the. | 00:38:25 | |
Following six. | 00:38:26 | |
Bindings Commissioner Banks, did you want to approve the final plat as well? I'll defer that. We'll defer that for final | 00:38:28 | |
consideration after. | 00:38:32 | |
Or for the for the combined. | 00:38:37 | |
And the first of those six conditions being? | 00:38:40 | |
That the development details required for a preliminary and final site plan have been submitted and reviewed by the TRC. | 00:38:43 | |
The development complies with the regulations within the professional office zone of the city. | 00:38:51 | |
The development complies with the general plan. | 00:38:58 | |
4th. | 00:39:01 | |
The required submittals for conceptual and preliminary subdivision development have been provided where applicable and have been | 00:39:02 | |
found to be complete and acceptable. | 00:39:07 | |
5. | 00:39:12 | |
Fire access has been approved by the. | 00:39:14 | |
UEFA And lastly, 6 separate utility meters and shutoffs for each unit are not required. | 00:39:17 | |
In addition, I would also move. | 00:39:25 | |
That within one year and in accordance with the applicable ordinance to defer the administrative review and approval of the final | 00:39:28 | |
plat. | 00:39:32 | |
By the. | 00:39:38 | |
Community and Economic Development Director following a positive written recommendation from the DRC. | 00:39:40 | |
Commissioner Vichinsky, I second that motion. | 00:39:48 | |
OK, we have a motion and a second. With that we will call for a vote. Commissioner Gong. | 00:39:52 | |
Aye. | 00:39:58 | |
Commissioner Cunningham? Aye, aye. | 00:39:59 | |
Prince I thanks aye. And Commissioner Roach votes aye, so it is unanimous. | 00:40:02 | |
And. | 00:40:12 | |
You're all set. | 00:40:13 | |
Right. | 00:40:18 | |
Thank you very much. | 00:40:18 | |
That moves us to item number two on our agenda, which is a zone map amendment. | 00:40:21 | |
Rezoning it from. | 00:40:28 | |
P for public, is that right? Make sure I'm saying that right. OK. P for public space to an R110 at the property located at 4930 S | 00:40:30 | |
Westmore Road. And with that we will ask Carrie to come back up and provide some information and details on this. | 00:40:37 | |
Thank you, Commissioner Roach. | 00:40:48 | |
This application is for property located at 4930 S Westmore Rd. It is currently zoned as a public zone for its use as a church. | 00:40:50 | |
The applicant is requesting A rezone to R110 which matches this surrounding neighborhood. | 00:40:58 | |
The use of the church is being discontinued and so in order to facilitate development I would need to be rezoned out of a public | 00:41:08 | |
zone. | 00:41:13 | |
And. | 00:41:18 | |
It's 2.88 acres and. | 00:41:20 | |
The. | 00:41:25 | |
R110 zone requires a minimum lot size of 10,000 square feet. | 00:41:26 | |
The TRC has reviewed the rezone proposal and finds that it meets the. | 00:41:31 | |
The goals of the General Plan and staff is in favour of this application and. | 00:41:37 | |
That it moves from a public zone to R110. The applicant can come up and present their application and answer any questions that | 00:41:45 | |
the Commission may have. | 00:41:50 | |
Excellent. Thank you. And at this time we'd like to invite the applicant or their representative to come up. | 00:41:55 | |
And if you would, please state your name and your address for us. | 00:42:01 | |
My name is Benjamin Wheat. Address is 1214 E Vine St. Murray, UT. | 00:42:10 | |
Thank you. | 00:42:15 | |
And Benjamin, if you would be kind enough to just provide us any additional details that you think would be relevant for the | 00:42:16 | |
Commission in reviewing this, that you want to add additionally to what staff has presented? | 00:42:20 | |
No. The application is to, like Carry said, rezone it from its current use of the public down to an R110, which is all of the | 00:42:26 | |
surrounding. | 00:42:30 | |
Zones on all sides and so. | 00:42:36 | |
Pretty straightforward. | 00:42:40 | |
OK. | 00:42:41 | |
And Commissioners, any questions for the applicant at this time? | 00:42:42 | |
OK. That will go ahead and have your seat. Thank you. | 00:42:46 | |
And with that, we'll go ahead and open up our public meeting. As a reminder, before anyone comes up, we would ask that you keep | 00:42:49 | |
the. | 00:42:54 | |
Comments brief and to the applicable. | 00:42:59 | |
Requirements of a rezone request and take no longer than 3 minutes. And with that, are there any members of the public here today | 00:43:04 | |
that wish to make a comment on this property? | 00:43:09 | |
And if you would, please state your name and address. | 00:43:22 | |
My name is Harold Bateman. I live at 1694 Bunker Hill Rd. | 00:43:27 | |
And my question is, we've been told that there would be 9 separate individual lots. I just wanted to confirm that's still a case? | 00:43:32 | |
Staff is that something that we can confirm what would fit in there? | 00:43:46 | |
So the density on the property is determined by the property size. | 00:43:51 | |
And now the analysis for the size of the property is that it can accommodate up to 12. | 00:43:57 | |
Units that is dependent on or lots it's dependent on. | 00:44:04 | |
Road area that's removed from that, so that might go down to 11, but that would be the maximum amount of. | 00:44:10 | |
Units allowed. | 00:44:17 | |
So at this time we're entertaining with Mr. White or Wheat and he told us it would be 9 lots. Can he confirm that here in this | 00:44:19 | |
meeting? | 00:44:24 | |
We we can ask the applicant that I'm not sure is that something that is pertaining to the Commission can certainly ask if that's | 00:44:31 | |
the case but it's not necessarily binding it. The the rezone is the rezone is just the first stage right and then after that it. | 00:44:39 | |
Becomes, you know, depending on what the. | 00:44:48 | |
What's submitted from from the applicant on the next phase? Right, So OK. | 00:44:51 | |
Thank you. | 00:44:54 | |
All right. Thank you, Mr. Bateman. Were there any other public comments at this time? | 00:44:56 | |
OK. | 00:45:03 | |
And with that, then we'll go ahead and close the public meeting. | 00:45:04 | |
And Commissioners, is there any discussion or any questions to redirect to staff before we entertain a motion on this? | 00:45:07 | |
Just to comment, I think the question about how many lots is an important one for the future. | 00:45:16 | |
But since it's being rezoned in the same zoning as the surrounding neighborhoods, it should have the same feel, you know, the same | 00:45:21 | |
sort of character and feel as the surrounding neighborhood. Is that correct? | 00:45:26 | |
OK. | 00:45:33 | |
Any other questions or comments? | 00:45:37 | |
Is anyone prepared at this time to make a motion? | 00:45:40 | |
This is Commissioner Prince, I'd like to make a motion. | 00:45:44 | |
That we forward a positive recommendation to the City Council to approve an application from Benjamin Wheat. | 00:45:47 | |
To amend the holiday zoning map for 2.88 acres of land located at 4930 S Westmore Rd. From Public Zone to R110. | 00:45:55 | |
Based on the following findings. | 00:46:07 | |
The proposed zone amendment is consistent with the goals, objectives and policies of the General Plan of the City of Holiday. | 00:46:09 | |
The proposed amendment is harmonious with the overall character of existing development in the vicinity. | 00:46:17 | |
The proposed amendment is not foreseen to adversely affect a budding properties. | 00:46:23 | |
An adequate facilities and services exist and will be part of any future subdivision. | 00:46:28 | |
That is proposed after the amendment. | 00:46:34 | |
Marty Banks seconds the motion. | 00:46:36 | |
All right, we have a motion and a second. With that we will call for a vote starting to my right, Commissioner Gong. | 00:46:38 | |
Commissioner Cunningham, Aye, Machinsky. | 00:46:45 | |
Prince aye, thanks aye. And Commissioner Roach votes aye, making it a unanimous in favour for the recommendation. | 00:46:49 | |
Thank you very much. | 00:46:56 | |
All right. | 00:47:01 | |
We have another zone amendment as item number three, this time from an R143 to an R110. | 00:47:02 | |
And we will once again ask the. | 00:47:11 | |
City staff. | 00:47:14 | |
Representative to come up and give us a report on this. | 00:47:16 | |
Thank you Commissioner Roach. This zoning request amendment is for property located at 4980 and 4990 S Holiday Blvd. | 00:47:24 | |
The zoning request is to go from R143. | 00:47:36 | |
Zoning going from R143 to R110. | 00:47:46 | |
The properties. | 00:47:50 | |
It's 2 adjacent parcels. | 00:47:52 | |
4980 the property size is .70 acres and 4990 is .55 acres. | 00:47:55 | |
The applicants are seeking to rezone the two properties from R143, which has a minimum lot size of 1 acre, to the R110 zone, which | 00:48:03 | |
has a minimum lot size of 10,000 square feet. | 00:48:08 | |
Currently both properties are non conforming to their existing zone. | 00:48:15 | |
The applicant intends to rezone in order to adjust a property line boundary between a neighbouring property on Cottonwood Blvd. | 00:48:20 | |
Umm. | 00:48:30 | |
The general plan refers to this area as a residential low density, stable. | 00:48:32 | |
It is on a boundary of a protected area. | 00:48:38 | |
The properties directly to the north of the. | 00:48:42 | |
4980 parcel is zoned as R110, so these two properties about that R110 zone. | 00:48:46 | |
Um. | 00:48:54 | |
The low density residential stable zone does support rezoning for unclaimed density of it's not in. | 00:48:55 | |
Foreseeing that any additional density would be added with this zone change. | 00:49:04 | |
The technical review committee recommends. | 00:49:11 | |
That the rezoning request be forwarded with a +2 City Council. | 00:49:15 | |
Based off of. | 00:49:23 | |
The findings in the General Plan. | 00:49:25 | |
And the applicants are invited to come up and present their application and answer any questions and then move to a public | 00:49:27 | |
hearing. | 00:49:32 | |
Thank you very much, Kerry. And with that, we'd like to invite the applicant to come up and provide any additional insights on | 00:49:36 | |
this or representative thereof. If you would, please state your name and address. | 00:49:41 | |
Yes, my name is Brian Hebden. I'm the architect for the Bywaters. My offices are located at 740 E 3900 S in Mill Creek, Utah. | 00:49:48 | |
So we were rezoning this as part of just sort of a grander opportunity for them to just have. | 00:49:55 | |
The ability to be able to add a detached structure in the back of the property, so we'd be able to. | 00:50:01 | |
Move a lot line in the future if they wanted to be able to do that. So that's really the. | 00:50:05 | |
Purpose of it as well as these two laws are currently nonconforming, so we'd be moving them into a conforming property. | 00:50:10 | |
In which the lots to the north and to the east. | 00:50:16 | |
Oh, sorry about that. OK. So I was just saying that these two properties currently do not conform to the zone in which they | 00:50:20 | |
reside. They're grandfathered in. However, our ultimate goal is to allow for them to have a little bit of flexibility if they want | 00:50:26 | |
to be able to build a future detached structure in their backyard property, which we would take a little bit of property from one | 00:50:32 | |
or two of these or both of these properties to add to their current existing properties they own. | 00:50:39 | |
These properties plus the one that currently sitting on. | 00:50:45 | |
Commissioner Prince, just a brief question so you'd be taking. | 00:50:49 | |
Land from these existing two lots on holiday Blvd. to add to a property that the addresses on Cottonwood Lane correct for | 00:50:54 | |
additional yes having the opportunity to do that and we're currently doing some studies right now to do that. | 00:51:02 | |
And even with removal of it, they would maintain the allowable size restriction of that R110 zone. | 00:51:13 | |
And does the Commissioner Cunningham does the. | 00:51:21 | |
Conceptual plan that you're talking about with another another building. | 00:51:25 | |
Will that impinge on the protected area there at all? | 00:51:30 | |
I do not believe it would impinge on that. | 00:51:34 | |
Any other questions for the applicant? | 00:51:39 | |
This is Commissioner Roach. I have one question just to clarify. So the applicant had come or the the property owner had come | 00:51:43 | |
before us just shy of a year ago in terms of what was dubbed a basketball barn. Would this additional land, the additional | 00:51:48 | |
structure you're talking about, is this in addition to no, that would be relocating it from that property and putting it into | 00:51:53 | |
these new? | 00:51:58 | |
Parcels. So that that's the reason why we're doing, we're moving it off of that particular property which would really become too | 00:52:04 | |
dense in the backyard of that area. So that's why we're wanting to move it into. | 00:52:09 | |
Taking some land from these two current properties and putting it into their yard rather than on a different property. | 00:52:14 | |
That makes sense. Hopefully that was clear. | 00:52:20 | |
Go ahead, Commissioner. Well, so would does that mean that you'll be coming back to us with a new proposal regarding the | 00:52:24 | |
Basketball Barn in a new location? Is that what I just heard? It shouldn't have to because by adding this to that property, there | 00:52:29 | |
wouldn't have to be any. We would be able to maintain proper setbacks, height restrictions and all that. So this gives us a much | 00:52:35 | |
more greater flexibility so that there is no variance as a request for heights or anything like that. That would be the ultimate | 00:52:41 | |
goal. | 00:52:46 | |
The whole port. | 00:52:52 | |
Because that was the reason why it was brought last time, was the height request. | 00:52:54 | |
And with what I recall as originally approved back in, I want to say November last year, I know there was some concerns about | 00:52:59 | |
trees and the the tree ordinance with this rezone, it looks like it's a fairly wooded area. | 00:53:06 | |
They're back on these two properties. | 00:53:13 | |
That impact what was approved back then as far as the tree ordinance preservation and that's a question either for you or city | 00:53:16 | |
staff. | 00:53:21 | |
So these are the majority of the trees back. There are quite small caliper trees. They're more like scrub oak styles trees, and | 00:53:27 | |
it's part of their Grander Re landscaping. They would be adding more foliage to their current backyard as well, and then | 00:53:32 | |
preserving the foliage that's in the original proposed location. We'll be able to maintain all that foliage, if not add additional | 00:53:38 | |
foliage there as well. | 00:53:44 | |
OK. | 00:53:50 | |
Can I follow up, having not been on the Commission when that earlier discussion happened? | 00:53:51 | |
Could you tell me what a basketball barn is and whether it has any? Right. So a basketball ball is used. Yeah. No, not a | 00:53:56 | |
commercial use. Absolutely not. So this is essentially is a space in which they'd be able to play. | 00:54:02 | |
With their family, basketball, pickleball, you know have some fun spaces in the back there as well as if. | 00:54:09 | |
They wanted to have wedding reception or something like that for family members to come in and do it. No, it is not a. | 00:54:15 | |
Nobody's buying passes. Nobody's buying anything like this. This is just purely for personal use. | 00:54:21 | |
And then the follow up to that and so if you move the location from what was previously approved. | 00:54:27 | |
Which this rezone would allow the lot lines to move. | 00:54:33 | |
Will they have any potential impact on neighbors in terms of the closeness of the noise or it's actually further away from more | 00:54:39 | |
neighbors than anything so? | 00:54:43 | |
Adds it to a larger piece of parcel, but currently the original parcel location was a small and partial parcel. Their current | 00:54:50 | |
parcel that they own right now. By allowing and adding more land to their current parcel, it gives more flexibility, gives more | 00:54:55 | |
privacy as well as. | 00:55:01 | |
And there's really not going to be much noise at all with it, right? Because it's all an interior sports score. | 00:55:06 | |
It wouldn't be an exterior, it would be all inside a building. | 00:55:12 | |
This Commissioner Prince, and this question may be better directed to city staff. | 00:55:16 | |
Tonight, what we are being asked to consider is the zone amendment for the two properties. | 00:55:22 | |
Any issue with moving a lot line is not. | 00:55:28 | |
Under it is not before the Commission tonight. | 00:55:34 | |
But it's interesting. OK. Thank you. | 00:55:37 | |
And it does subway into the. | 00:55:40 | |
Impacts that it would have and considering the rezoning request. | 00:55:44 | |
So. | 00:55:48 | |
Excellent questions. Any other questions for the applicant at this time? | 00:55:49 | |
No. | 00:55:53 | |
What's that? OK, I think we're good to go ahead. Thank you. Appreciate it. And with that, we will open the public comment or | 00:55:55 | |
public meeting portion. | 00:55:58 | |
I know that there was one comment that was submitted right at the beginning of the meeting, and I believe the gentleman's here if | 00:56:03 | |
he wants to come up. If you would, please state your name and address for the record. | 00:56:08 | |
My name is John Crandall at 4956 Holiday Pines. I live in the PUD just adjacent to 49804980 shares of Rd. with the Holiday Pines | 00:56:15 | |
PUD. My day job is I'm an investment banker, Andrea Tax-exempt Bonds, so I've spent a lot of time in front of cities throughout | 00:56:23 | |
the state, but I've spent very little time with the P&Z, so. | 00:56:31 | |
My expertise is definitely not in planning and zoning. | 00:56:39 | |
But there are a couple things that. | 00:56:43 | |
I am concerned about is if the zone change occurs and there isn't a property line readjustment. | 00:56:45 | |
Then there could be how many homes built on these two parcels. | 00:56:52 | |
If I understand it correctly, it's going to be the square feet basically divided by 10,000, so you're talking. | 00:56:56 | |
Maybe three homes on the first parcel. | 00:57:03 | |
And then? | 00:57:06 | |
Through Yourself Homes on the 2nd Parcel based on the. | 00:57:07 | |
1. | 00:57:12 | |
Zoning, Is that correct? | 00:57:13 | |
That's a great question. Let's city staff if you want to refer to or answer that. | 00:57:15 | |
Yes. So with the 10,000 square foot lot minimum size rezoning would. | 00:57:21 | |
Um. | 00:57:28 | |
Make that .70 part parcel that's on the South side potentially could be subdivided into 3. | 00:57:30 | |
And the one on the north? | 00:57:38 | |
Being sized at 23,000 square feet could be divided into two. | 00:57:41 | |
And so since that's, you know it's a step process, you have to look at the rezone now and then maybe there is a rebound or there | 00:57:47 | |
maybe there's not. | 00:57:50 | |
Sewer is a real problem in this area. The 4980 is connected to the PUD sewer right now. | 00:57:55 | |
Because that home was a septic system. | 00:58:01 | |
And so for the the. | 00:58:04 | |
The 4980 house is connected to the PUD sewer system. | 00:58:08 | |
And that's a holding tank pump system because it's below grade at Holiday Blvd. So it's, I can tell you that it's, it's not a | 00:58:13 | |
perfected system. It's something that is expensive and causes problems and no one wants to have problems with their sewer, but | 00:58:19 | |
that does happen. | 00:58:24 | |
Occasionally. | 00:58:30 | |
I'm not sure if the house to the South of it. | 00:58:32 | |
Is on what kind of system, but if there is a septic field like 4980 used to have? | 00:58:35 | |
Then, you know, how far does that septic go West? | 00:58:41 | |
And you certainly wouldn't want to divide property that divides a septic system onto someone else's parcel at some point in the | 00:58:45 | |
future. I'm sure staff has looked into that, but that is a question that should be looked into. | 00:58:51 | |
So my concern is really I really don't have a lot of concern other than the 4980 if there is a A2 parcel building lot built there, | 00:58:59 | |
that's going to cause problems for the R PUD with regard to the sewer system. | 00:59:05 | |
All right. Thank you very much, John. Appreciate it. And just to clarify if there was a subdivide application. | 00:59:13 | |
That would go back through the city. That's not what's being considered tonight, correct? | 00:59:20 | |
Right. So a rezone is what is being considered tonight. Subdivision would be a separate public hearing, a separate process, | 00:59:25 | |
correct. Thank you. And at this time? | 00:59:30 | |
There's no increase in density. | 00:59:36 | |
From what's already existing. | 00:59:38 | |
With the rezone, but it does open the door for future. | 00:59:40 | |
Changes to that based on the lot size, which again would have to go back through city staff. | 00:59:44 | |
Chair one other comment. So. | 00:59:50 | |
The challenge what they're what they're planning to do. You have a legal nonconforming situation. So in order for them to do a lot | 00:59:53 | |
line adjustment, they have to bring. | 00:59:57 | |
Because they're making a change, they have to bring those lots into conformity with something. | 01:00:01 | |
And their proposed the proposed amount of property that they're taking. | 01:00:05 | |
From the other two and adding it to the Cottonwood. | 01:00:10 | |
Drive property. | 01:00:13 | |
Necessitates. | 01:00:15 | |
A zone change. | 01:00:17 | |
Right. So in order to accomplish their ultimate goal of. | 01:00:18 | |
You know of the lot line adjustment, which doesn't come before the Planning Commission, but in order to do that you have to get it | 01:00:22 | |
to a zone that is current and that fits with those. | 01:00:26 | |
And the closest one. | 01:00:31 | |
That still meets with those minimums is the R110. | 01:00:33 | |
So we looked at the R123. | 01:00:36 | |
And it just didn't have enough property on the one to to meet that level. | 01:00:38 | |
And it was consistent with and there's not a 123 around there, it's forward 43 or it's R110. | 01:00:42 | |
So that's. | 01:00:49 | |
That's kind of the way we got to this point. | 01:00:49 | |
Excellent. Appreciate the clarification. | 01:00:52 | |
And with that, is there any other public comments on this property this evening? | 01:00:55 | |
OK. With that, we'll go ahead and close the public hearing. And commissioners, any questions or discussion? | 01:01:01 | |
I just want to disclose a familial connection. Stephanie is my cousin. | 01:01:08 | |
So I'll recuse myself from the discussion and the voting. | 01:01:14 | |
Excellent. | 01:01:18 | |
I appreciate that. | 01:01:19 | |
Commissioners, any other questions? Comments. | 01:01:21 | |
Alrighty with that if anyone's prepared to make a motion if I could. | 01:01:25 | |
Just explore in my mind. | 01:01:30 | |
None of the representations today are legally binding on the property owner. | 01:01:34 | |
About what their future intentions are. | 01:01:39 | |
But from our standpoint. | 01:01:43 | |
And neither is, neither is. I mean you're the this is step one of the rezone process from Planning Commission. You make a | 01:01:46 | |
recommendation, right? They have to go before the City Council to ultimately gain approval there before there is an actual zone | 01:01:50 | |
change, right? | 01:01:54 | |
And. | 01:01:59 | |
So. | 01:02:01 | |
The reason they want to do it? | 01:02:03 | |
As long as a reason is. | 01:02:05 | |
To bring the nonconforming. | 01:02:08 | |
Or. | 01:02:10 | |
Lots into compliance is legally sufficient. | 01:02:12 | |
Is anyone in prepared to make a motion on this? | 01:02:23 | |
Commissioner Wilchinski and we'll make a motion to forward a recommendation to the City Council. | 01:02:27 | |
To approve an application by Stephanie and David Bywater to amend the holiday zoning map. | 01:02:33 | |
4.55 and point. | 01:02:39 | |
17 acres of land. | 01:02:41 | |
Located at 4980 and 4990 S Holiday Blvd. | 01:02:43 | |
From R143 to R110 based upon the following findings. | 01:02:48 | |
The proposed own amendment is consistent with the goals, objectives and policies of the General Plan. The proposed zone amendment | 01:02:54 | |
is harmonious with the overall character of existing development in the vicinity. | 01:03:00 | |
The proposed zone amendment does not substantially affect a budding properties. | 01:03:07 | |
The proposed facilities and services are adequate for the zone amendment. | 01:03:12 | |
This is Commissioner Prince. I'll second that motion. All right, we have a motion and it has been seconded. | 01:03:18 | |
With that, we will call for a vote then Commissioner Cunningham. | 01:03:24 | |
Aye. | 01:03:28 | |
Commissioner Buchinsky. | 01:03:29 | |
Commissioner Prince aye, Commissioner Banks aye. And Commissioner Roche votes aye, So the favorable recommendation passes | 01:03:31 | |
unanimously. | 01:03:35 | |
Thank you very much. | 01:03:41 | |
And before we get into the 4th item on the agenda this evening, which I suspect there's still several members of the public that | 01:03:48 | |
wish to comment on, I'm just anticipating could be wrong, Does anyone need a quick two-minute recess before we move into that? | 01:03:56 | |
OK. | 01:04:05 | |
Just figured I'd check. All right. So with that we will move into the. | 01:04:05 | |
Next item. | 01:04:10 | |
And that is the zone amendment from. | 01:04:11 | |
Or 18 to R28 located at Butternut. And with that we will ask city staff to come up and give us a report on that. | 01:04:15 | |
Thank you, Commissioner Roach. | 01:04:28 | |
This application for a zone map amendment is located at. | 01:04:30 | |
OR involves properties at 4437 S, Butternut at 2475 E, 4500 S and 2485 E 4500 South. It's an application being brought by the | 01:04:35 | |
three individual property owners together in one application. | 01:04:44 | |
They are proposing to change the zone from R18 which is the zone for the property on 4437 S butternut and R110 which is the zone | 01:04:53 | |
on the. | 01:04:59 | |
Two properties on 4500 S. | 01:05:06 | |
The the request is to change the zone for all three of those properties to R28. | 01:05:09 | |
And. | 01:05:15 | |
The properties are located on 4500 S It is a narrow 20 foot wide. | 01:05:17 | |
Access Rd. | 01:05:24 | |
I guess the. | 01:05:26 | |
Actual Rd. is labeled on maps as 4770. | 01:05:28 | |
444470 | 01:05:33 | |
um. | 01:05:35 | |
The. | 01:05:37 | |
The intent of the property owners is to either utilize existing structures or dwelling units, or to be able to create an | 01:05:40 | |
additional dwelling unit on their individual properties. | 01:05:46 | |
The maximum amount of additional dwelling units that could be gained by this rezone is 5. | 01:05:53 | |
There is within the. | 01:06:02 | |
Restrictions would apply for each property based off of attached units or detached units, each of those requiring either A6000 or, | 01:06:04 | |
sorry, 5000 square feet for a detached unit. | 01:06:11 | |
Per unit and 4000 square feet for an attached unit per unit. | 01:06:18 | |
Of each. | 01:06:23 | |
This is Commissioner Prince. I'm going to interrupt and just ask one clarifying question. | 01:06:24 | |
There are currently 3. | 01:06:29 | |
Properties with three structures. | 01:06:32 | |
Right. | 01:06:35 | |
One of which has a. | 01:06:36 | |
Unit in their. | 01:06:38 | |
Basement. The garage. | 01:06:40 | |
Right, so there would be a maximum of. | 01:06:41 | |
Two additional properties that could be added. | 01:06:44 | |
Right, overall, when considering this group of three lots. So it's based off of the size of each property, looking at the property | 01:06:48 | |
size for the property on butternut. | 01:06:55 | |
Their existing lot size would not enable an additional unit to be added unless they increase their property size. | 01:07:02 | |
Or attached that dwelling unit that's underneath their garage in some way. | 01:07:12 | |
So that is just based off of the size of that property. So there are some. | 01:07:17 | |
Additional adjustments that would have to be made in order for that. | 01:07:23 | |
Unit that's underneath the garage to be legally rentable. | 01:07:27 | |
The middle property. | 01:07:32 | |
Is. | 01:07:35 | |
.4 acres I believe are around .4 acres. | 01:07:36 | |
More options there where they could do either two separate. | 01:07:41 | |
Attached units, so total of 4 units there. Or they could do a single family unit and to attach units. | 01:07:46 | |
The property size then enables just different configurations. | 01:07:54 | |
Or options for them. | 01:07:58 | |
Maximum of four units on that property. | 01:08:00 | |
The final property at 2485. | 01:08:04 | |
Would be eligible for one more single family unit being added. | 01:08:10 | |
Thank you. | 01:08:15 | |
Within the general plan, these properties are identified in an area that. | 01:08:18 | |
That is suggested for rezone 2A2 family zone. | 01:08:27 | |
This area also would need a moderate income housing goal and strategy. There is a bus stop that is located on this same. | 01:08:31 | |
Or on the corner of 45th South. | 01:08:43 | |
And Butternut Rd. So this is along a transit corridor. | 01:08:46 | |
So enabling a rezone on a on a transit corridor meets a moderate income housing strategy. | 01:08:51 | |
The. | 01:08:59 | |
Technical Review committee did review the plan. One concern is with the narrow Rd. that's between the park and the properties. | 01:09:01 | |
Um. | 01:09:11 | |
The additional units would not cause a increased amount of traffic beyond. | 01:09:12 | |
And it would be negligible. | 01:09:19 | |
The. | 01:09:22 | |
Roadway would still be able to be used for by the neighbors for cross traffic. They most area or most neighbors in the area use | 01:09:24 | |
that roadway to go between Wander Lane and Butternut Rd. | 01:09:31 | |
The parking would all be managed on site if any additional units are added and there is no parking on the park side of that road. | 01:09:39 | |
Most parking for that park should occur on 45th South, where there is a. | 01:09:48 | |
Large area for parking in the shoulder. | 01:09:53 | |
The technical Review Committee and staff recommend that this application be forwarded with a positive recommendation for City | 01:09:56 | |
Council. | 01:09:59 | |
And we'll have the applicant come and discuss their application and answer any questions. | 01:10:04 | |
Thank you. And with that, because there are three different applicants as there are representative for all three. Or will all | 01:10:11 | |
three be coming up? | 01:10:15 | |
Is 1 applicant that is representing all three. And another note on this one as well is that there are additional public comments | 01:10:20 | |
that were included in a packet that each of you received just so that you. | 01:10:27 | |
Ensure that you're reviewing those and then they will be added to the public record. They don't need to be read in, but they will | 01:10:33 | |
be part of the public record. | 01:10:37 | |
Excellent. Thank you very much. And with that, we'll go ahead and ask the representative to come up and state name and address | 01:10:40 | |
please. | 01:10:43 | |
Thank you. My name is Dan Kemp. I live at 4437 Butternut. | 01:10:51 | |
And so the reason why this actually came about is we purchased that property recently. | 01:10:57 | |
And as you know, it is already configured with an AUD detached unit under the garage. | 01:11:03 | |
And so we were excited about the possibility of utilizing our own property to rent that out. | 01:11:10 | |
Unfortunately, we were. | 01:11:17 | |
Sort of told that it was rentable before we moved in. We found out subsequently that is not based on city code at the current | 01:11:20 | |
moment, so. | 01:11:24 | |
This came about from swanning to figure out how to do this properly and legally. | 01:11:28 | |
And so we wanted to figure out how to make that usable. | 01:11:33 | |
Since then there's been some changes as well, but. | 01:11:39 | |
I was also it was also brought to my attention that the neighbors to the east at 40274075 and 2485. | 01:11:42 | |
We're possibly interested in the same rezone. | 01:11:51 | |
So we decided to join together to ask that as a. | 01:11:54 | |
Together since it's consistent with the general plan and is in the area on the map and the plan where it shows that R2 is | 01:11:59 | |
available and possible. | 01:12:03 | |
So my particular lot I'll speak about kind of all three because I do know what their, their plans are, my particular lot is. | 01:12:08 | |
Was that apparently 8000 square feet? Initially, a little bit of land was given back to the city. | 01:12:18 | |
To make it actually about 160 feet square feet short of that. So really doesn't even fit in the hard 18 anymore. But if it's our | 01:12:25 | |
two way. | 01:12:30 | |
I've been now informed that with the AU, since it's detached and not attached, it's the requirement to rent out both. | 01:12:37 | |
Properties at the same time are not possible because it would require 10,000 square feet. | 01:12:47 | |
So unless there were lot line changes, which based on the other situation I guess is possible but not probable for our situation. | 01:12:53 | |
But we'd like to still move forward, because I know that the other participants are still interested in their lot. There are lots | 01:13:01 | |
being. | 01:13:05 | |
Changed. | 01:13:10 | |
My particular lot would probably only be able to be at this moment, I still. | 01:13:11 | |
Can't utilize the AU and rent it, which is unfortunate. However, I do know that there is a possibility that perhaps next week. | 01:13:16 | |
There's a text change amendment that may be brought forward because the city is perhaps wants to make AU's a little more possible | 01:13:26 | |
to be able to be utilized at with smaller lot sizes. So that would in fact enable me to be able to utilize it. If I we are living | 01:13:32 | |
on property we could rent out the AU at a separate time, that's a separate matter. But I just bring that up because I won't be | 01:13:38 | |
here next week when that is brought up to your attention but. | 01:13:44 | |
As far as the other two, lots. | 01:13:51 | |
There are. | 01:13:53 | |
I know that 27 or 2475. | 01:13:55 | |
They spoke to me and said that they just wanted to add one more family home for their kids so they could both. | 01:13:59 | |
Have their families living on the same property with two units. | 01:14:06 | |
And I know that the. | 01:14:09 | |
Owner of 2485 intends to build something similar to my situation with a detached. | 01:14:11 | |
Structured garage with something underneath or on top. | 01:14:18 | |
Where they could rent out that one location as well. I know that there's some concerns that I've seen in. | 01:14:21 | |
The packet that we're also addressing. | 01:14:28 | |
Traffic and the street usage and parking and such. So actually none of those. | 01:14:32 | |
Concerns really would apply at this moment, just because we're looking at the zone change and not, I mean, not trying to. | 01:14:39 | |
Put up any different structures of this moment but. | 01:14:47 | |
When they do, the other property owners do decide to do that. They would like to have all the parking contained on site. | 01:14:51 | |
Because that is a small 20 foot St. | 01:15:01 | |
So we're not excited about all the traffic on it either. So I know that the neighbors major concern is traffic on that street, | 01:15:05 | |
kids that walk on that street. | 01:15:09 | |
We're concerned about that too, I don't think adding a couple of cars on that street. | 01:15:15 | |
From the people that live there are going to add too much most of the traffic. | 01:15:19 | |
Is actually coming from other people using it as a. | 01:15:22 | |
Through a spare and they're going quite fast, that's really the major concern and. | 01:15:25 | |
It's honestly our concern as well, but at this moment. | 01:15:30 | |
Any parking would be on site. Our particular area for our house has A2 car garage and then in the picture that's in your packet. | 01:15:34 | |
It also you can see there's three cement pads and so there's parking to the right side of the garage that would allow for one car. | 01:15:43 | |
It's a small studio that would. | 01:15:48 | |
Really only allow for one or two people at one person or a couple anyway, so it would only be one car and that would be on site. | 01:15:53 | |
So we don't want anyone to park on that street either. | 01:15:59 | |
And we would be interested in also finding a way to have less traffic going up and down that street, but. | 01:16:02 | |
We're just looking at trying to change change it so that we can use our properties to the best and. | 01:16:08 | |
You know, for our own purposes basically, I think there were concerns that maybe developers were coming in and. | 01:16:16 | |
Going. | 01:16:22 | |
Take over and stuff, but that's not the case. It's just the property owners. | 01:16:23 | |
See and then. | 01:16:27 | |
Can I interrupt with a quick question? You mentioned that you too as the current property owners. | 01:16:29 | |
Excuse me? | 01:16:36 | |
Are interested in decreasing the traffic on that street. Do you have any ideas on how you might do that? Well, I mean if you we | 01:16:38 | |
are utilizing the AU's and and such and and they do get different sort of housing. | 01:16:44 | |
In there it could the transportation from the city, buses and whatnot might be. It actually may decrease the traffic, as least as | 01:16:52 | |
far as our lots are concerned, because they made a lot of those people that use those kind of smaller, you know, they're students | 01:16:56 | |
and they. | 01:17:01 | |
They just take public transportation as close to the holiday city village and whatnot. I understand how that might mitigate. | 01:17:06 | |
The. | 01:17:14 | |
Expansion of traffic, but you'd indicated you have hopes of reducing the traffic as it is right now. Have you given any thought to | 01:17:15 | |
how you might do that? There was a thought about maybe making that street. | 01:17:21 | |
So that it you can't actually drive on it. We talked about that with the city so that people could just utilize it for the kids to | 01:17:28 | |
walk through and not actually drive there and park there. | 01:17:32 | |
However, it does bring up some other concerns as far as bringing in, you know, the garbage trucks and whatnot, you can't really | 01:17:37 | |
have a turn around at the end and and so it does make it difficult. | 01:17:43 | |
It's sort of a. | 01:17:49 | |
It's kind of a. | 01:17:52 | |
Half and half situation and I think people do like to utilize that as a through St. which doesn't bother me either. But I, you | 01:17:54 | |
know obviously it's just mostly the speed so maybe just more control of the speed on that street would be more concerning for | 01:18:00 | |
anybody including the people who have kids walking on it, but. | 01:18:05 | |
So idea is to reduce the speed, anything to reduce the amount of traffic on this street. | 01:18:12 | |
That you said that you'd indicated in your comment earlier, Ohh, well, I just said, yeah, I just basically thought that it would | 01:18:18 | |
be nice to reduce the amount of St. traffic and I I do think the closing it could do that. | 01:18:24 | |
So it was not a through street, but that also brings up a lot like a like I said, a lot of other problems as well. So you're | 01:18:30 | |
taking any steps to. | 01:18:33 | |
Closed the street. No, no, no. We talked with the city and they just suggested that that could be one thing that could be done. | 01:18:39 | |
And then they talked about you know us maybe purchasing it, which I don't think we were really excited about either. And so it | 01:18:46 | |
would be maybe if that was done, it would be still maintained by the city, but. | 01:18:52 | |
And then like I said it. | 01:18:59 | |
The fact that you can't bring the garbage trucks up and down that street make it kind of difficult. | 01:19:01 | |
Forgive me, I interrupted you, I carry on where you were. Oh, you're fine. Appreciate it. Basically I just kind of wanted to | 01:19:07 | |
address mostly also concerns and that's why I brought up is mostly because I know that's concerns of the neighbors. | 01:19:13 | |
Is the street traffic and so. | 01:19:19 | |
I don't feel like the R2 zone change is going to really increase a lot of St. traffic for for them. | 01:19:23 | |
I mean. | 01:19:30 | |
More than an order, it is but. | 01:19:32 | |
I do believe that it would make. | 01:19:34 | |
It easier for us to maybe utilize our properties and like I said, unfortunately mine the only way I can actually use my AU's with | 01:19:36 | |
a text amendment but change. But as far as the other owners, I know that they're interested in maybe adding an Adu on their. | 01:19:44 | |
Or additional structure on their property. Great. I appreciate that, Mr. Kemp. Thank you and. | 01:19:52 | |
Just for my own edification real quick. And what would it this might be for city staff? Who are you? What would it take to make | 01:19:58 | |
that an attached? | 01:20:01 | |
Dwelling unit as it's currently built now like could you put an awning on it and call it attached? | 01:20:06 | |
For it to be attached, it would take a significant amount of work just looking at and talking with Mr. Kemp about where you know | 01:20:11 | |
existing doorways are. There's store, there's stone on the exterior, it could be attached, but it might be more costly than than | 01:20:19 | |
that is worth or you've attached it through the basement with. | 01:20:26 | |
Digging a tunnel connection between the two, again maybe more costly than. | 01:20:34 | |
Because I think in answer to your question, Chairman, I think the awning idea which I I thought of as well, was not considered | 01:20:40 | |
attached. | 01:20:43 | |
Yeah, just it needs to be an enclosed internal internal awning. With a screen porch on, it wouldn't be considered attached unless | 01:20:49 | |
it had its own HVAC. | 01:20:53 | |
Right. OK. So, yeah, so with the garage pull forward as it is, it would actually require the structure. | 01:20:58 | |
Behind the garage to be built and then attached to the house which would be pretty intensive so so that would. | 01:21:06 | |
Because like you said, that would take the requirement from 10,000 down to 8000. | 01:21:13 | |
So I don't know if there's any chance of, you know, making exceptions in the. | 01:21:17 | |
In the text. | 01:21:23 | |
In in the city code for that sort of situation, for existing structures or not, I mean I would love to explore that as well, but | 01:21:24 | |
from what I understand that may not be a possibility now. I appreciate it. I just wanted to clarify on that point, make sure I | 01:21:30 | |
understood the dynamic of the option there. Were there any other questions for the applicant that's representative at this time? | 01:21:37 | |
From the Commissioners. | 01:21:44 | |
OK. With that, we'll go ahead and have you sit down. | 01:21:45 | |
Get the pictures that I'm familiar with the property in that area and I'm looking at the pictures and you said that there would be | 01:21:49 | |
an off street parking, no one would have to park. | 01:21:54 | |
So you're currently just parked one car in the garage that currently sometimes we Part 2, but you can get through the garage and | 01:21:59 | |
still have a car parked on that right pad. We've done it before but I mean maybe not my truck but. | 01:22:06 | |
But it is tight. But it would if you parked the car on the right side, then maybe don't pull all the way up to the garage. You can | 01:22:15 | |
still enter the garage easily and and still have two cars inside as well. | 01:22:20 | |
But there's currently only one car in there right now. | 01:22:25 | |
And one other question and and perhaps some of the other owners are here and might comment, but if not, do you know if if? | 01:22:29 | |
What their? | 01:22:38 | |
And what their motivation? They don't have a DUI's. I understand. No, they're what's there here. But ohh, terrific. I'll let them | 01:22:40 | |
answer that question. Thanks anyway. OK. But yeah, they did want to, like I said, I I know the middle property wanted to build an | 01:22:45 | |
additional structure for their family to come live with on their area and the other applicant wanted to do something very similar | 01:22:50 | |
to what I have. | 01:22:54 | |
God. | 01:22:59 | |
Excellent. Thank you, Mr. Kemp. | 01:23:02 | |
With that, we will take public comment as soon as we open the public hearing. | 01:23:04 | |
And then we'll provide Mr. Kemp an opportunity to add any additional responses to any public comments that are made. | 01:23:10 | |
Before closing. | 01:23:18 | |
Before we move into the public meeting, just because I do see that there's several members of the public still here. Just as a | 01:23:20 | |
reminder, if you will not reiterate the same points made by a previous speaker and. | 01:23:26 | |
If you will keep your comments to 3 minutes or less, we'd appreciate that. | 01:23:33 | |
And with that, we'll go ahead and open up the public hearing and begin with comments. And it looks like we have someone coming up | 01:23:37 | |
right now. If you'll start with your name and address, please. | 01:23:41 | |
My name is Jeff Beck. I live at 4416 S Butternut Rd. It's right across the street from this. | 01:23:48 | |
Just for the record, we're excited that Dan bought the home and that he's. | 01:23:56 | |
There This is an awkward way to start a relationship with a neighbor, but. | 01:24:00 | |
I'm I'm opposed to this rezone application. I'll tell you why. | 01:24:04 | |
I'm not. I'm not opposed to. | 01:24:08 | |
Density increases when it makes sense. | 01:24:10 | |
I was very supportive of the R18 rezone for the house that Dan bought. | 01:24:12 | |
I think it fit in with the neighborhood, the character of the neighborhood. | 01:24:18 | |
Umm. | 01:24:21 | |
So I think the the the two points that I'm opposed to, one is is a beautiful home, the damn bot. | 01:24:22 | |
The builder puts something in the. | 01:24:31 | |
Wasn't, you know, wasn't legal from a standpoint of running it out to someone else. And so I'm I'm confused why we're trying to | 01:24:34 | |
fix. | 01:24:37 | |
That problem that that would be my first point. | 01:24:41 | |
And the second point is. | 01:24:45 | |
Kerry mentioned. | 01:24:48 | |
Several times that this was on 4500 S This is not 4500 S, this is 4470 S and there's a huge difference between 4430 S which is | 01:24:50 | |
45th S and 4470. | 01:24:54 | |
It's a 16 to 17 foot width on the asphalt. | 01:25:00 | |
As opposed to 60 feet on 4500 S So if if when you read the general plan and you see where the density increases make sense. | 01:25:04 | |
45 should be a higher density. It makes sense. It's a big Rd. there's a lot of traffic that can go through there. | 01:25:11 | |
39th makes sense, 23rd makes sense. | 01:25:17 | |
4470 does not make sense. It's not 45th. | 01:25:20 | |
And so I think it's really important that we that we separate this is not 4500 S. | 01:25:24 | |
And it does not meet. | 01:25:29 | |
The intent of the general plan, in my opinion. | 01:25:31 | |
It is 4470 S It's a tiny Rd. | 01:25:33 | |
You know you can. You can. | 01:25:37 | |
We can all pretend like it's not going to increase traffic or cause problems. | 01:25:39 | |
It already is a problem, and when you add more homes it's going to create more problems. May I ask what part of the general plan | 01:25:43 | |
in particular do you think this is inconsistent with? | 01:25:48 | |
So the General Plan identifies 4500 S. | 01:25:53 | |
As a corridor that should have increased density. | 01:25:55 | |
This is not 45 zero South. | 01:25:59 | |
This is 4470 S and there's A and and if you if you understand. | 01:26:01 | |
I I'm a developer ID real estate. I have these meetings all the time. | 01:26:06 | |
The intent of the code is a large arterial. | 01:26:10 | |
Makes sense for increased density. | 01:26:14 | |
That's why the General Plan shows it. | 01:26:17 | |
4470 is not 4500 S. | 01:26:20 | |
That was in my comments. | 01:26:23 | |
Thank you very much, Jeff. Appreciate that. | 01:26:25 | |
Any other comments? | 01:26:28 | |
Come on up please. | 01:26:31 | |
My name is Alicia Durr. I live at 2413 E Butternut Circle. | 01:26:38 | |
Just around the corner from the Butternut home. | 01:26:43 | |
And umm. | 01:26:47 | |
One other point, with this small St. there are no parking signs along the park side of that little small St. | 01:26:51 | |
And already you can see where 2 feet of the grass has been obliterated because cars do park there. | 01:26:58 | |
And I'm concerned that Holiday doesn't have the resources to continue to. | 01:27:05 | |
Enforce that no parking on that side. | 01:27:11 | |
With the corner house in question and that picture. | 01:27:15 | |
Most couples, when I've seen them, rent like a studio apartment. It's two cars. | 01:27:19 | |
And I've got a lot of kids that ride their bikes around. I'm concerned about that increasing more street parking, which would? | 01:27:25 | |
Lead on to Butternut Rd. | 01:27:31 | |
And also wander Lane where there are no sidewalks. | 01:27:33 | |
And it's already a little bit more of a dangerous St. for walkers and bikers. | 01:27:37 | |
Umm. | 01:27:42 | |
I'm just trying to remember my thoughts. | 01:27:46 | |
Also with. | 01:27:50 | |
Mr. Kemp. | 01:27:52 | |
You know, saying that he will designate that little parking spot. I'm also. | 01:27:53 | |
Concerned that a future owner, should it change hands, would not allow a renter to park there and there wouldn't be a designated | 01:27:58 | |
spot for that home right there. | 01:28:02 | |
When you look at the map. | 01:28:08 | |
I know it was mentioned before this meeting started that. | 01:28:10 | |
And it was a very recent change that those new properties, there's three new properties that I redeveloped. | 01:28:14 | |
That was a very recent change to change from R10 to R8 in order to be able to subdivide that into three different lots. | 01:28:19 | |
And everything on the north side of 45th South. | 01:28:26 | |
Is an R18. The majority are R110. | 01:28:30 | |
But even that new development happening on 23rd hundred 2300 E. | 01:28:35 | |
Aren't. | 01:28:40 | |
At an R28. | 01:28:41 | |
That was rezoned to be an R18 in order to put in that new development. | 01:28:44 | |
So there's nothing on that north side. | 01:28:48 | |
Of 45th South. That's an R2. | 01:28:50 | |
On the South side, when you look at that and you see the R210 and you look at those properties right there, they have little small | 01:28:52 | |
kind of private streets that allow. | 01:28:57 | |
For. | 01:29:02 | |
The parking that happened in the rear, right there for all of those. | 01:29:04 | |
And um. | 01:29:08 | |
And I'm just very worried about. | 01:29:09 | |
Being able to make designated parking for how many people actually move into homes and have multiple cars. | 01:29:13 | |
Already in the neighborhood, people have teenagers. | 01:29:19 | |
And a lot of the homes throughout there have 3. | 01:29:21 | |
Three cars with each home so. | 01:29:24 | |
That's another reason why I am concerned. | 01:29:28 | |
And then with the general plan, I know that affordability which was mentioned before, I know all those houses sold for well over | 01:29:31 | |
$1 million and. | 01:29:36 | |
None of these new properties are realistically would. | 01:29:41 | |
Would be considered an affordable type. | 01:29:45 | |
Unit. So I don't think it really meets that. | 01:29:48 | |
Qualification. | 01:29:54 | |
And then, um. | 01:29:56 | |
I. | 01:29:58 | |
I with our neighbourhood we access Wander Lane and that upper part. | 01:29:59 | |
And if you were to close off that street, this is just because this was in the conversation a little bit earlier. There are a lot | 01:30:03 | |
of accidents that happen. | 01:30:07 | |
Between Wander and 45. | 01:30:11 | |
I've witnessed 2 pedestrian accidents that have happened there and. | 01:30:13 | |
I'm sorry, between Wander and 40 Wander, Yeah, we're Wander crosses 45th right there. If you were to close off this little small | 01:30:18 | |
St. for everyone to be able to access both ways. | 01:30:23 | |
You would have more cars needing to turn onto 45th and then turn left. | 01:30:29 | |
Onto wander lane to be able to access that neighborhood, which is just. | 01:30:34 | |
More of a chance of of accidents happening. Turning on to that buddy Busy St. | 01:30:39 | |
It's really nice as a neighborhood to be able to turn onto that small lane. | 01:30:44 | |
And be able to go right up to Wonderland I do it. | 01:30:49 | |
Many times during the day. | 01:30:52 | |
If that makes any sense so. | 01:30:54 | |
And those are my comments. Thank you. Thank you. | 01:30:56 | |
Thank you, Planning Commission. I'm Andrew Webb. I live on 4348 S. | 01:31:08 | |
Butternut Rd. | 01:31:12 | |
I live a little bit further down but and it's been most of it has been mentioned, so I won't reiterate that, but I do want to | 01:31:15 | |
mention the there are many families. | 01:31:19 | |
Who send their children up there for school on this street? And we've talked a little bit about parking. | 01:31:23 | |
But I think the traffic is the big concern for the few that I've spoken with. | 01:31:29 | |
And as of course I'm super sensitive to the condition that. | 01:31:34 | |
Our resident and our neighbors in I just feel I would be frustrated if I were him. | 01:31:37 | |
I would be. | 01:31:42 | |
But I recognize that this would be awry, I think, for especially all of these kids who are using this little St. each day. | 01:31:44 | |
To get to school or to get to their friends? | 01:31:52 | |
And they're quite a few of them. | 01:31:55 | |
That's the only other thing I think we've I'd mentioned I've heard everything else that I. | 01:31:56 | |
As I spoken with other neighbors and. | 01:32:01 | |
That that feels like something that needs to be considered. | 01:32:03 | |
Thanks for your time. Thanks for evaluating the situation. We know it's not always. | 01:32:05 | |
Easy. | 01:32:09 | |
What you do and we appreciate it. | 01:32:10 | |
Thank you, Andrew. | 01:32:13 | |
Any other comments? | 01:32:18 | |
Hi, I'm Cheryl Far. I live at 44. Sorry, could you put that mic up? It just barely can't hear you. | 01:32:26 | |
I'm Cheryl Farr. I live at 4400 Butternut Rd. | 01:32:31 | |
Which is around the corner from the property. | 01:32:34 | |
On Butternut. | 01:32:38 | |
Wrote her across the street from that kind of Kitty corner. | 01:32:39 | |
I agree with some of these comments that have been made already, so I won't reiterate those points. | 01:32:45 | |
Couple of things that I have noticed that have not yet been said is that. | 01:32:51 | |
This. | 01:32:56 | |
This street that we're talking about, this small St. 4470 S. | 01:32:57 | |
Has no sidewalk on either side of the street. | 01:33:01 | |
And we do have a lot of foot traffic coming from Howard Driggs down through. | 01:33:05 | |
4470 or through the park? | 01:33:10 | |
And the only access for pedestrian. | 01:33:12 | |
Safety is the sidewalk along 4500 S. | 01:33:16 | |
Excuse me, which park you're referring to? | 01:33:20 | |
There's a little triangular mark that is that abuts the street, right? The same one. I'm sorry, go ahead. | 01:33:23 | |
Um, so the the sidewalk on the north side of that park is the only pedestrial? | 01:33:30 | |
Access that we have other than walking through the park talking about the park immediately adjacent to this road. Yes, Got it. | 01:33:37 | |
Thank you. | 01:33:41 | |
Umm. | 01:33:46 | |
And so when children are coming down the street from. | 01:33:48 | |
Howard Driggs. | 01:33:53 | |
That. | 01:33:55 | |
The. | 01:33:58 | |
Intersection between Wander Lane and 45th South. | 01:33:59 | |
Or. | 01:34:04 | |
The children have to either go directly West on that street crossing Wander Lane, which is a very busy. | 01:34:06 | |
Intersection from cars. | 01:34:13 | |
Turning left and going north on 45th South and turning left onto Wander Lane. It's a very busy intersection or the children have | 01:34:16 | |
to round the corner on Wander Lane. | 01:34:20 | |
Cross Wonder Lane. | 01:34:25 | |
And go down 4470 S. | 01:34:27 | |
With no sidewalks. | 01:34:29 | |
And no safety. | 01:34:31 | |
Access. | 01:34:35 | |
And that that's a big concern for me. | 01:34:36 | |
I have also witnessed many pedestrian accidents. I personally was in a pedestrian accident, a pedestrian accident on 4500 S. | 01:34:40 | |
And was. | 01:34:50 | |
Hit by a car and. | 01:34:52 | |
I am actually lucky to be alive and so I'm very sensitive to the. | 01:34:55 | |
The traffic and the density that is in this area. | 01:35:00 | |
The configuration of the streets. | 01:35:04 | |
If a car is heading north or excuse me, heading east on 45th South and then turns left onto Butternut Rd. heading north at that | 01:35:08 | |
point. | 01:35:13 | |
There is that is a very awkward corner because there is not a lot of. | 01:35:19 | |
Space for the cars and yet also a lot of pedestrian. | 01:35:25 | |
Traffic coming. | 01:35:29 | |
West on that 4470 S. | 01:35:31 | |
Street and turning on to Butternut Rd. | 01:35:35 | |
Umm. | 01:35:38 | |
Another. So I am very concerned about the increase in traffic. I think it's a hazard I think you will have. | 01:35:41 | |
I have seen. | 01:35:49 | |
Vehicle accidents that are vehicles that are traveling N on wander lane and trying to cross. | 01:35:53 | |
4500 S onto Wander Lane on the north Side. | 01:36:00 | |
I've seen many vehicle accidents there and the cars. | 01:36:03 | |
That get hit end up in the canal and the other thing that I don't don't think anyone has mentioned is the canal. | 01:36:07 | |
That runs on the east side of these properties. | 01:36:14 | |
Um. | 01:36:17 | |
And what access? | 01:36:18 | |
Are are these homes going to be? | 01:36:22 | |
Taking Are they going across the canal? Are they going along 4470 S? | 01:36:24 | |
What access is going to be? | 01:36:29 | |
Provided. | 01:36:33 | |
For these extra homes in that area. | 01:36:34 | |
I have a great concern over the density. I think the. | 01:36:37 | |
The. | 01:36:41 | |
Question of. | 01:36:43 | |
Moderate housing is. | 01:36:44 | |
Is not a legitimate question because this area is. | 01:36:46 | |
Higher. | 01:36:50 | |
Income level higher. | 01:36:51 | |
Standard of living type. | 01:36:53 | |
Area. | 01:36:55 | |
So I I do not agree that this that argument holds. | 01:36:56 | |
Umm. | 01:37:02 | |
Another concern of mine is the character of the neighborhood. If new buildings are built on these properties, it would go. | 01:37:04 | |
Against the character of the neighborhood, in that most homes in the existing area are all single level. | 01:37:12 | |
With basements and if you increase the density in these properties. | 01:37:20 | |
The the homes would be built. | 01:37:25 | |
Tri level meaning a basement, a regular level and then an upper level. | 01:37:28 | |
And that would. | 01:37:33 | |
That would not be consistent with the character of the neighborhood. | 01:37:35 | |
Thank you very much. Thank you. | 01:37:38 | |
Any other public comments? | 01:37:44 | |
Again just a reminder, if you can keep it to 3 minutes, try not to repeat and name and address please minus. | 01:37:49 | |
I agree with everything my neighbors have said. Did I have something else to take? OK, my name is Elaine Erickson. I live at 4388 | 01:37:55 | |
S Wander Lane, which is the property right behind. | 01:38:01 | |
These. | 01:38:08 | |
To the to the north, to the north. | 01:38:10 | |
Yes, to the north. | 01:38:12 | |
So if they were to build. | 01:38:14 | |
Four places there. | 01:38:17 | |
I would. | 01:38:19 | |
Have. | 01:38:21 | |
More neighbors than I have now, which? | 01:38:21 | |
Concerns me. | 01:38:25 | |
And height that's another windows. Also my sewer line goes right through that property. | 01:38:28 | |
And I'm a little bit worried about what? | 01:38:34 | |
I don't want any extra charges for someone else's. | 01:38:37 | |
Benefit. | 01:38:41 | |
So that concerns me also, but I really. | 01:38:42 | |
I really prefer not to set in my kitchen. | 01:38:46 | |
Eating dinner and. | 01:38:51 | |
Looking at my neighbors in their bathroom, I really prefer a little bit of space between me. | 01:38:53 | |
And the next one's over. | 01:38:59 | |
And that's. | 01:39:01 | |
Just kind of what I'm asking for is the little space. | 01:39:03 | |
Excellent. Thank you very much for your comments. | 01:39:07 | |
I'll go really quickly because it might be redundant, but I'm trying not be redundant. I'm Caitlin Beck. | 01:39:19 | |
Jeff's wife. I live across the street. | 01:39:24 | |
One point that Alicia kind of alluded to is this is. | 01:39:27 | |
From 23rd to 27th. | 01:39:31 | |
45th. | 01:39:34 | |
Over is just one big neighborhood and it feels a little bit like we are separated, but that street kind of saves us in that way. | 01:39:35 | |
We are constantly going back and forth on that street. It connects us. My kids ride their scooters back and forth. | 01:39:43 | |
All the time. And if one car is parked there, you can't really even get through. I mean, it's. | 01:39:52 | |
It's just teeny they it was stated that it was 20 feet wide, but my husband measured at 16 feet wide, 17 Max. It's just a skinny, | 01:39:57 | |
skinny Rd. you cannot park on and it's just already a problem with how much how skinny it is. Parking is hard. It it already | 01:40:04 | |
stresses me out, is what I'm saying. | 01:40:10 | |
And with all of my kiddos, I've got five kids with most of their friends up there, so the thought of adding to it just. | 01:40:17 | |
Adds a lot more stress because I feel like it would be more of a divide of the neighborhood and it would be less safe for the | 01:40:24 | |
kids. | 01:40:27 | |
And again, it's been said, but that wander lane, if you're not familiar with it, go try and turn a couple times into it, it's. | 01:40:30 | |
Or go, I mean it's just a scary road and if that is a harder road to access and we're we're pushing all of that West and East Rd. | 01:40:37 | |
drivers onto 45th for that short little thing, it'll happen like. | 01:40:44 | |
50 cars a day, you know, just that little. And I just think it will. The the history of accidents is crazy right there. We've all | 01:40:51 | |
seen them. | 01:40:54 | |
So just add, this is a very high stress. | 01:40:59 | |
Spa already. We've got this cute park. It's great the kids walk it. | 01:41:03 | |
Adding anymore to it is going to is scares me to death. So Caitlin, I just want to clarify. You're at 4416, yeah. | 01:41:07 | |
And is that the property that's right on the corner of 45th or 1 N? No, we actually lived there for quite a while and then we live | 01:41:14 | |
just. | 01:41:18 | |
One in. | 01:41:22 | |
Thanks. | 01:41:25 | |
OK. | 01:41:26 | |
Robert Bradley 4375 S 2490 E which is just. | 01:41:35 | |
Half a block away. I just want to clarify. Could you repeat your name again? I I did. Robert Bradley. Thank you. Thank you. | 01:41:40 | |
I just want to clarify in the in the prior meeting it was said that this was an R18. | 01:41:49 | |
But it was really R110 and then converted to an R18. | 01:41:54 | |
03 or four years ago. So it's been historically has been our 1:10 for all of that property. | 01:41:58 | |
And just if I can just call on staff real quick, John, can you confirm that it was R110 converted to R18 in the 1999 county zoning | 01:42:06 | |
maps had it as R18 when we incorporated we changed it to 10. | 01:42:12 | |
And yes, the resident is correct. 3434 years ago it was rezoned at this corner. | 01:42:19 | |
To 1. So way back when it was 8 we changed it to 10. Then they changed it back to 834 years ago, OK? | 01:42:25 | |
Yeah. | 01:42:32 | |
Thank you. | 01:42:32 | |
Any other comments from the public? | 01:42:37 | |
I wasn't going to speak that. | 01:42:43 | |
And the party? | 01:42:45 | |
Owner's name and address please. Kevin Holman and I'm 2485 E 4500 S My closing documents when I purchased the property were 4500. | 01:42:46 | |
SI have never until today seen 4470. | 01:42:53 | |
Half of my stuff comes 44. | 01:43:00 | |
4430, Half of it. The majority of it comes 4500, and I've never seen that address. Just for the record till today. All through | 01:43:03 | |
COVID and for the last three years I've worked at home, my living room window looks out at the street all day. I watched my | 01:43:09 | |
neighbors drive back and forth. I watched the speed at which people go. I would never allow my children to walk on that lane, let | 01:43:16 | |
alone have their scooters on it and be unsupervised. I have seen so many near misses when I've been in meetings on the phone, I | 01:43:22 | |
can't even tell you. | 01:43:28 | |
How concerned I am. I think all of their concerns could be addressed. | 01:43:34 | |
By getting a sidewalk on the park. | 01:43:39 | |
Just to get that off that property, it is very, very narrow. No one can park on that little. I call it an alley. I've, I've lived | 01:43:43 | |
in the Avenues. It is very, very. It's my driveway practically. But as they've all mentioned, they all use it every day to fly | 01:43:48 | |
through back and forth. | 01:43:53 | |
And avoid 45. I get it. It's very busy. I have seen, I've been witnessed to all the accidents, all the unreported accidents where | 01:44:00 | |
police haven't even been called because. | 01:44:05 | |
There's been feuds and then the people have just ended it out there again. I would never allow my children to walk on that lane. I | 01:44:10 | |
would never allow my children to cross on 4500 across wander lane unsupervised. It is scary. Go sit there from 7:15 to 8:30. Look | 01:44:17 | |
at the. | 01:44:23 | |
Back to the topic, yeah, which is trying to get it back to an R2, which was the point for tonight. | 01:44:32 | |
Yeah, anyway, sorry. | 01:44:40 | |
Do you have any questions for me? | 01:44:43 | |
I I don't have any questions for you. | 01:44:47 | |
Unless the commissioners have any questions since he's the other applicant here tonight. | 01:44:49 | |
So our understanding from the other applicant that represented you in the beginning. | 01:44:53 | |
Is that your plan is to build an accessory dwelling unit? Yes, that's what I would like to do, Yes. OK. | 01:44:58 | |
And one unit are you? Are you? | 01:45:05 | |
Just one unit that I want my kids to live in as I have a bunch of young married kids and it would be a great place for them to. | 01:45:07 | |
To live on my property but be in a separate dwelling so a second home or no, it would be attached to my garage, yeah. | 01:45:14 | |
OK. | 01:45:22 | |
Which I am planning on adding a garage to that property. | 01:45:23 | |
And again, all of the parking can be addressed on our property. We have plenty of room for parking. | 01:45:27 | |
On our lots. | 01:45:33 | |
You said you're planning on having that attached to your garage. I will do whatever the city. I will work with the city to comply | 01:45:35 | |
with whatever. | 01:45:39 | |
Zoning, legal legalities are required. | 01:45:44 | |
Yes, I would. | 01:45:48 | |
But that's the plan. | 01:45:49 | |
And as you've gazed out your window while you're working at home, yeah, Have you ever seen a car parked on that street? | 01:45:50 | |
So frequently, even the city, the people who take care of the grounds, they park on that street. | 01:45:58 | |
And so then that congests the area. The only place that people park on the street is on my property. | 01:46:04 | |
And on my fence that again will be alleviated because that will be my driveway. My driveway is very narrow and I contend with all | 01:46:10 | |
the traffic on it. Why are they parking in front of your house? | 01:46:16 | |
That's the only place to park. | 01:46:23 | |
There's like a little tiny piece. And so when a car's there, it even becomes more dangerous. And that's all they have, a fence. Is | 01:46:24 | |
that on the street? | 01:46:28 | |
Yeah, it's well, there's as one of the neighbors mentioned, it's only 16 feet. I've never measured it before. So they don't really | 01:46:32 | |
care how long. I'm just asking is that spot that you're talking about on the street? | 01:46:38 | |
They have to part partially on the street and mostly on my property in order to park there. | 01:46:45 | |
Is they have plenty of parking all along 4500 S, but nobody ever parks there. Is that where you've got a no parking sign? Rather I | 01:46:51 | |
finally put that up because my fence, which is old anyway and will be. | 01:46:57 | |
Going at some point they park into it and then they hit it and it's about knocked down. | 01:47:03 | |
Thank you. | 01:47:08 | |
Any other questions for the applicant? | 01:47:11 | |
OK. Thank you very much. Appreciate it. | 01:47:14 | |
And with that? | 01:47:17 | |
Real quick. | 01:47:21 | |
First of all. | 01:47:22 | |
Talking. | 01:47:24 | |
And again, this is Elaine Erickson. OK, just for our record, thank you and his. | 01:47:25 | |
Address of 41st South. | 01:47:30 | |
Is that many years ago? | 01:47:31 | |
That was 45th so. | 01:47:33 | |
That is the old 45th South. Many people who have lived along there have the address of 45th South, but it's. | 01:47:35 | |
Not 45th South anymore. | 01:47:43 | |
Appreciate that. | 01:47:45 | |
And. | 01:47:47 | |
Just. | 01:47:47 | |
The clerk. | 01:47:48 | |
And and anecdotally, just to share as someone who's dug in Butternut Park and planted 2 trees there, there is a fine layer of | 01:47:49 | |
asphalt about two feet below the soil line where the original 45th South runs. | 01:47:56 | |
So I'm fully aware that that street still exists underneath the park. | 01:48:03 | |
Ohh. | 01:48:09 | |
Not. | 01:48:10 | |
The center. | 01:48:11 | |
475. | 01:48:13 | |
Was a. | 01:48:14 | |
Like before. | 01:48:15 | |
Resume. | 01:48:16 | |
That. | 01:48:16 | |
The framing down. | 01:48:17 | |
Home is still there. It's. | 01:48:19 | |
It was a duplex. | 01:48:22 | |
Or. | 01:48:23 | |
Walk in the. | 01:48:24 | |
Both sides. | 01:48:25 | |
Interesting. | 01:48:28 | |
OK. Alright. Thank you very much for that. And then just lastly, I would like just to extend one more opportunity if. | 01:48:29 | |
Dan Kemp had anything that he wanted to add after the comments that have been just to address real quickly. | 01:48:38 | |
Chair, do you want to close the public hearing and then have the applicant apologize? Let me close the public hearing. Thank you | 01:48:46 | |
for pointing, Avoider. Then we'll have you Go ahead and. | 01:48:50 | |
Address it. I was just going to address a couple of things. One is that for. | 01:48:54 | |
Her benefit, the one that lives to the north of Kevin on 2045, he was going to do. | 01:49:00 | |
Just to reiterate, an Adu like mine, so it would not be 4 units in that spot. | 01:49:08 | |
And it was going to be at the front, so it would. | 01:49:13 | |
Interfere with your property. | 01:49:15 | |
And the middle property where they're. | 01:49:17 | |
The, his, his right he'd be on the South side. | 01:49:21 | |
Right. | 01:49:27 | |
OK. If I can just let me just reel everyone in here, please. We're not going to have a discussion in here. So if you can just | 01:49:29 | |
address the Commission trying to let her, I appreciate that. Yeah. | 01:49:33 | |
I don't really understand I guess where her property is, but I just know that it was only going to be 180 U on his property is | 01:49:38 | |
what he wanted to do. | 01:49:41 | |
The middle one. | 01:49:45 | |
It was mentioned it could be 4. | 01:49:46 | |
I know that they're planning on doing one additional home. | 01:49:48 | |
Obviously, if they were going to do 4 or whatever it was, that would have to come before the committee at a separate time and also | 01:49:52 | |
have the public's input as well. | 01:49:56 | |
So it's really hard to say what they would build. | 01:50:01 | |
And I can't really speak for them for that either, but as far as the again on my unit it. | 01:50:05 | |
R2 is really not going to make a difference unless I ever changed a lot line. | 01:50:11 | |
And the pedestrian access, obviously that's a concern for everybody. It's a concern for us. So I thought that his idea to have a | 01:50:16 | |
sidewalk on the one side of the park would be a great idea. There is a sidewalk that goes through the park or part of it, so | 01:50:21 | |
that's also helpful, but. | 01:50:26 | |
So hopefully we can keep everybody safe and. | 01:50:32 | |
We'd like to see that as well. | 01:50:36 | |
OK. | 01:50:38 | |
All right. Thank you very much. | 01:50:38 | |
Appreciate everyone's comments and with the. | 01:50:40 | |
Public hearing closed. We'll now turn to our Planning Commission for discussion about this and just as a reminder. | 01:50:43 | |
What we are looking at with Razones specifically are the four items outlined in the packet. | 01:50:51 | |
Which? | 01:50:58 | |
You guys can read, so I don't have to just completely go over them all again, but. | 01:51:00 | |
Does it? | 01:51:04 | |
Meet the objectives of the General Plan. | 01:51:05 | |
Is it harmonious with the overall character? | 01:51:08 | |
Can it adversely affect a budding properties? | 01:51:11 | |
And do all the facilities and services intended to serve the property work in this rezone? | 01:51:15 | |
So with that commissioners discussion, Marty Banks anything? | 01:51:20 | |
Yeah, the third criteria. | 01:51:25 | |
Says not only whether it will affect the abutting properties, but. | 01:51:27 | |
Or the surrounding neighborhoods. I have a. | 01:51:31 | |
I have an impression that this may indeed adversely and materially. | 01:51:34 | |
Affect the surrounding neighborhood in terms of. | 01:51:39 | |
Pedestrian use. | 01:51:44 | |
Pedestrian traffic. | 01:51:46 | |
Safety for kids? | 01:51:49 | |
I. | 01:51:52 | |
I. | 01:51:52 | |
I would be sympathetic to some mitigating. | 01:51:54 | |
Conditions that might be imposed. | 01:51:57 | |
But we haven't really talked about that yet and the applicant. | 01:52:00 | |
Neither the applicant nor. | 01:52:03 | |
The members of the. | 01:52:05 | |
Public have offered any. | 01:52:06 | |
Mitigating. | 01:52:09 | |
Conditions that might. | 01:52:10 | |
Make this more palatable to me. | 01:52:12 | |
As it is right now. | 01:52:15 | |
I. | 01:52:19 | |
Yeah, we all want to encourage these, Adus especially. | 01:52:20 | |
At this time, where we're, you know? | 01:52:23 | |
Housing shortages, so. | 01:52:26 | |
Severe. | 01:52:28 | |
But. | 01:52:30 | |
I hate to. | 01:52:31 | |
I hate. I hate to disregard the sort of underlying. | 01:52:33 | |
10. | 01:52:38 | |
Of. | 01:52:39 | |
Those. | 01:52:41 | |
Criteria that we have to base a decision on. | 01:52:43 | |
And that one in particular to me is. | 01:52:46 | |
Not a slam dunk, but all things considered. | 01:52:50 | |
I'm weighing that direction. | 01:52:53 | |
I appreciate that and I can understand the. | 01:52:56 | |
Points made around the. | 01:52:59 | |
Impact. | 01:53:02 | |
To other properties, so. | 01:53:03 | |
With that, I'll switch gears and we'll come over to Commissioner Gong. Any thoughts or input? | 01:53:05 | |
Um. | 01:53:10 | |
I agree. I mean, it seems like a lot of people are have a lot of concerns, but it's part of this. | 01:53:11 | |
Broader picture that these intersections are already pretty dangerous. So I have just sort of broader question for the. | 01:53:16 | |
For the city staff. | 01:53:23 | |
There. | 01:53:25 | |
It seems like a lot of the concerns are connected with this bigger picture of saying it's already really bad. What are, what are, | 01:53:28 | |
what's the history of? Have there been any traffic studies about this area? Any any thoughts about mitigating the broader thing | 01:53:32 | |
so? | 01:53:36 | |
So the whole area isn't just, it's already clearly a concern, no matter, you know, whether or not they're A use on these units. So | 01:53:42 | |
what's the history of that discussion around this area? | 01:53:46 | |
And maybe John can give some more insight into the larger history with the creation of this. | 01:53:53 | |
More narrow Rd. as the alignment of 4500 S was adjusted. | 01:53:59 | |
Talking to the city Engineer the. | 01:54:06 | |
Impact of adding additional dwelling units, even up to five would be negligible, have a negligible effect on that roadway. Safety | 01:54:09 | |
concerns with pedestrians or other vehicles using the road. | 01:54:16 | |
The majority of the road use sounds like it is from the surrounding neighborhood connecting between the two. There would be an | 01:54:25 | |
option to look at how that traffic can be addressed in other ways if that's. | 01:54:32 | |
That would have to be in consultation with the with the city engineer to address some of those larger traffic concerns. | 01:54:42 | |
Commissioner Gong, if I might. | 01:54:50 | |
45 Zero South is not our street, it's a UDOT Rd. | 01:54:52 | |
UDOT maintains and operates UDOT as a collector to the freeway access points. | 01:54:55 | |
So they do conduct St. analysis every year. | 01:55:00 | |
And they give that in those numbers to us. But other than just getting straight numbers of ADT average daily traffic counts. | 01:55:04 | |
Yeah, it's a collector and it's fast. | 01:55:12 | |
And we had to where we were dealing with a state road right that bisects our city. | 01:55:16 | |
East West. | 01:55:21 | |
North-south. | 01:55:25 | |
Well, yeah, from a north to South side, sure, but having the corridor run directly east West is difficult. | 01:55:27 | |
OK. | 01:55:34 | |
Great. Thank you, Commissioner Cunningham. | 01:55:35 | |
I share some of Marty's concerns. | 01:55:39 | |
The city has already made a decision that we're going to encourage this kind of zoning. | 01:55:43 | |
And they've hinged it on moderate housing. | 01:55:49 | |
But in the ordinance it talks about moderating housing, moderate housing, finance by redevelopment agencies and stuff like that, | 01:55:52 | |
which I don't think is at play here. | 01:55:57 | |
And that more importantly, I think, by putting it on the transportation corridors. | 01:56:02 | |
Which is a City Council decision to do that. | 01:56:09 | |
This is the exception to the rule. | 01:56:13 | |
Now you know, I would say you know for the 23rd all the way up to. | 01:56:15 | |
I-15. | 01:56:20 | |
I'm not sure I would. | 01:56:21 | |
Be concerned, this is just weird. OK? It's an artifact. | 01:56:23 | |
Of. | 01:56:28 | |
Putting the park and keeping the road there, someone made those decisions and it happened. | 01:56:29 | |
And it's a reality for that neighborhood. | 01:56:34 | |
And that I think this is the wrong place to solve an AU problem. | 01:56:36 | |
To result. | 01:56:42 | |
OK, we've heard the applicants talk about AD as well. | 01:56:43 | |
Gather other ways to get Adus. | 01:56:47 | |
The council will probably have to get to address directly. | 01:56:50 | |
And I'm not persuaded that this is a good decision to make, and I think it's within our legislative authority. | 01:56:53 | |
To say no. | 01:57:01 | |
All right. Appreciate that, Commissioner Prince. | 01:57:03 | |
I. | 01:57:06 | |
I'm sympathetic to the concerns about the traffic. | 01:57:08 | |
However. | 01:57:13 | |
At the same time, I'm not convinced that. | 01:57:15 | |
Traffic from a few new units. | 01:57:19 | |
Would materially change the situation where it's people in the. | 01:57:23 | |
Coming from Butternut Circle or Briarwood or wherever. | 01:57:27 | |
Passing through over to wander lane and vice versa. | 01:57:32 | |
I'm not convinced that a few units would materially change the utilization of the road and the traffic. | 01:57:35 | |
On the road I. | 01:57:43 | |
You know, safety 1st and all, but I I'm not convinced that the situation would be dramatically different. | 01:57:45 | |
If there were a couple of more units placed on the road, so I. | 01:57:53 | |
I I think there's real value in. | 01:57:59 | |
Considering options for a property owner to utilize their property. | 01:58:03 | |
As. | 01:58:08 | |
As they would like to. | 01:58:09 | |
And I don't think we should just summarily dismiss. | 01:58:12 | |
Property owners being able to consider their options. | 01:58:17 | |
Because the. | 01:58:21 | |
Neighbors want a better sidewalk or. | 01:58:24 | |
Something along those lines and that's not to dismiss. | 01:58:27 | |
Safety concerns. I just think there's it's a real balance between the individual property owners. | 01:58:30 | |
Opportunities. | 01:58:36 | |
And desires. | 01:58:37 | |
And those of the surrounding neighborhood, and I'm not sure that it's clear at this point. | 01:58:39 | |
Which way it falls out? | 01:58:46 | |
Best. | 01:58:48 | |
OK. | 01:58:50 | |
And lastly, I'll turn to. | 01:58:51 | |
Commissioner Betsy. | 01:58:52 | |
I do agree with you, Commissioner Prince, I think you've you've pointed out a very important consideration. | 01:58:54 | |
And that we have to make, but I also agree with the other points that the Commissioners have made here. | 01:59:00 | |
I feel like there's some valid points that have been made and brought to our attention. | 01:59:06 | |
Umm. | 01:59:11 | |
By the staff and by the public tonight. | 01:59:13 | |
And one of the things that. | 01:59:16 | |
I am concerned with is that this just went through a rezoning. | 01:59:18 | |
We. | 01:59:23 | |
Have just been told that. | 01:59:25 | |
At least the one property was rezoned. | 01:59:27 | |
Just back in 2020. | 01:59:30 | |
And it was to. | 01:59:32 | |
Fulfill the purpose of the General Plan in offering more housing. | 01:59:34 | |
And which they? | 01:59:39 | |
Allowed. | 01:59:41 | |
Smaller lot sizes already. | 01:59:42 | |
And that's already been done. I wasn't on the Planning Commission at that time, but that was that was done. | 01:59:45 | |
And so here we are just three years later, and we're being asked to even go smaller. We're being asked to even put more. | 01:59:52 | |
On land. | 01:59:59 | |
When it was already decided that the R18 zone was adequate. | 02:00:00 | |
For the plan. | 02:00:06 | |
And so to to be at a place just three years later where we're being asked. | 02:00:07 | |
So once again, add more. | 02:00:13 | |
Just wonder where do you draw the line? |
