to the Comprehensive Plan.
Smart mentioned the Vision Statement should be changed from 2020 to 2030.
2. Request by Con Jensen, Spring Creek Homes, to modify the original final plan for Dance PUD.
Con Jensen 11070 (Deer Ridge Pocatello, Idaho is owner/partner of Spring Creek Homes. All seven
buildings are up and the road is paved at Dance PUD, 209 Siphon Road. Spring Creek Homes would like
to eliminate the storage sheds in the common area and replace with playground areas. The concrete
pads that were the original plan will remain, but in place of the storage sheds basketball court,
tetherball pole, volleyball court, swing set and 3 outdoor barbeque spots will be constructed. Spring
Creek Homes is looking for a better community atmosphere for each apartment.
Holmes explained that the PUD ordinance states any modification in the final plan needs to be reviewed
by the Land Use Commission and submitted to the City Council with recommendation from Land Use.
Jensen explained there are 3 buildings that are ready for Certificate of Occupancy. 2800 square feet of
concrete pad was required in the final plan but they now have 3900 square feet.
Stoddard mentioned bike racks where bikes can be locked might be considered.
Anderson explained a few years ago a PUD application had only left 5 feet of property out the back door.
That is why the personal space came into play in the ordinance.
Anderson entertained a motion to deny or accept the change in the original final PUD plan.
Mendenhall made a motion to accept the application by Spring Creek Homes to modify the original PUD
plan for Dance. In the letter from Spring Creek Homes dated 6.2.15 the personal space would eliminate
the storage sheds in the common areas and replace with playground areas. The concrete pads that were
originally there would be allowed to have basketball courts, tetherball courts, volleyball courts, swing
sets and the addition of barbeque spots. Armstrong seconded. Smith would like to have an amendment
to the motion to have 2 to 3 bike racks. Mendenhall accepted the amendment. Armstrong seconded.
All voted in favor. Motion carries.
Anderson entertained a motion to adjourn; Mendenhall made the motion. Swartz seconded. All voted to
adjourn at 7:50 pm.
