application for a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for 9 loft -style townhomes in the General
Commercial (C-2) zone. The west side of the property borders Belva Ln, which was built
and dedicated in other plats at 25' wide. Current standards are a 50' right-of-way that
include curb, gutter, and sidewalk, the sidewalk along Belva Ln will be in an easement on
the property, and the entrance will be closer to Briscoe Rd than would normally be
allowed.
Planning Manager Don Matson stated that this application was an infill project and had
been reviewed by City Staff and the proposal complies with all the standards of Titles 16,
17, 18 of City Code and the Comprehensive Plan, as presented with conditions.
Thayer declared the public hearing open for public comment.
Resident Terry Udy was Opposed. Udy was concerned about traffic, due to the width
of Belva Lane, and the project's entrance proximity to Briscoe Road.
Resident Lupe Hernandez was Opposed. Hernandez was concerned about traffic, due
to the width of Belva Lane.
Resident Katie Udy was Opposed. Udy was concerned about traffic, due to the width
of Belva Lane, bus stops, and the project's entrance proximity to Briscoe Road.
Due to no more public comment, Thayer closed the public hearing.
Redge stated that Belva Lane's width was established prior to this application.
According to the traffic study, the proposed development is expected to generate an
increase of approximately four vehicles during peak hours.
The Commission was concerned about the project's entrance proximity to Briscoe
Road, the proposed development density, parking, the dumpster location, and its ability to
be serviced by the sanitation department.
Christophersen motioned to table a decision on an application for a conditional use permit at 111
Briscoe Road; with the applicant's approval, allow the applicant the opportunity to address the
Commission's concerns, submit a revised site plan, and schedule a second public hearing to
consider the revised site plan. Thayer seconded.
