04:27>> Commissioner Walters,

04:29>> Thank you, Chair. You have a quorum.

04:31>> Thank you. I call to your attention to

04:33the information printed in your agenda

04:35concerning our actions and the appeal

04:36and review process if appropriate.

04:38Please read this carefully, and if you

04:40have any questions, staff is available.

04:41Also, the second page of the agenda

04:43contains our rules of conduct. We

04:44appreciate your adhering to these rules

04:46so we can have a smooth meeting. Thank

04:47you. Public comment during this portion

04:49of the agenda must be limited to matters

04:51on the agenda for action. If you wish to

04:53be heard, come to the podium and give

04:55your name for the record. The amount of

04:57discussion as well as the amount of time

04:58any single speaker is allowed may be

05:00limited. And with that in mind, I would

05:02like to remind that for this evening,

05:04all agenda items will be two minutes for

05:06every agenda item. And if you have

05:08written copies of testimony, you can

05:10submit it to staff for the record as

05:11well. All comments made under this item

05:14for specific action items will be cross

05:16referenced to those items. Are there any

05:17members of the public who wish to speak

05:19under this portion of the agenda? please

05:21come up if so. And I do know that there

05:24is potentially one agenda item of

05:26interest that has been obeyed. And so I

05:28just want to say that for the record

05:29that the blue heron item is not being

05:31heard tonight.

05:34>> Has not been a housekeeping item. BS.

05:36>> Thank you, Madam Chair. My name is John

05:38O'Reilly. I reside at 313 Pinnol Lane.

05:41Also own the property at 619 Campbell.

05:44Both of which are uh immediately south

05:46of the property that's included in item

05:49number 39. I'm here along with several

05:51neighbors who are here. There are many

05:53other neighbors on interested in this

05:55item who are not here who have been told

05:58one that it's continued uh two that it

06:01can't be continued except uh this

06:03evening uh by this body. So we are here

06:06to make sure that we don't have the

06:07issues we had with the last blue heron

06:09matter where many were told it was

06:11continued or obeyed uh when in fact it

06:14wasn't. So I would respectfully request

06:17that this public comment period be held

06:21open until you finalize your agenda

06:23unless you've already done that and held

06:25in obeyance. Item number 39. If item

06:28number 39 is not held in obeyance, we

06:30have a lot more public comment. If it is

06:32held in obeyance, uh, so be it. It's

06:34consistent with what we've heard.

06:37I'll just say on agenda item six is our

06:40housekeeping and that is where we will

06:41announce the obeyances but we are

06:43obeying certain items tonight.

06:45>> Okay. Again I would respectfully request

06:47if 39 is not obeyed you keep this public

06:49comment hearing open so I can provide

06:51more clarity in terms of why it uh the

06:55people are here that are opposed to it.

06:57>> I will say that if it is not obeyed it

06:58will still be a public hearing item and

07:00at that time then all people will be

07:02allowed to give comment on agenda item

07:0539. Um, but in the interest of time, I

07:08would recommend that we be able to move

07:09to agenda item six for our housekeeping.

07:11And that is where we're able to formally

07:13say what agenda items are obeyed.

07:15>> Well, apparently I've not made myself

07:16clear. I'll try to clarify. The vast

07:19vast vast majority of people who are not

07:22here are here are not the ones that are

07:25opposed. There are many, many people who

07:27are not here that are opposed that were

07:30told they don't need to be here tonight

07:32because it's going to be continued. So

07:33if it's not going to be continued uh we

07:36need to be heard so you can understand

07:38why it should be continued.

07:39>> Sir you will be heard but this item

07:43according to open meeting law and agenda

07:44item six for housekeeping is when we are

07:47able to say what items are formally

07:48obeyed. If this agenda item is not

07:51obeyed it will have the proper public

07:54hearing um protocol and everyone will be

07:57able to come down and give their opinion

07:58at that time but the item is being

08:00obeyed. So, you're suggesting we have to

08:02wait till 39 comes on to why it

08:06shouldn't be heard if it's not obeyed.

08:07Is that what you're suggesting?

08:08>> Nope. It is one of the next agenda

08:10items.

08:11>> I'll tell you what, I will keep my uh

08:13request that the public comment period

08:15be open. When you get to item number six

08:17of the problem, I'm going to stand up

08:18again and be unless you tell me I can't

08:21be. Thank you.

08:22>> Absolutely.

08:25Seeing no other comment, I close this

08:28item. Agenda item five is may we have a

08:31motion to approve the minutes of the

08:32planning commission meeting of September

08:348th, 2026. Vice Chair.

16:06Good evening, planning commissioners. My

16:09name is Gina Venlass. I am the city

16:11engineer and deputy director for the

16:14public works department. I'm here

16:16tonight with Michelle Bridgeta. She is a

16:19licensed architect with Carpenter

16:21Sellers Delgado and is working on the

16:24East Side Education and Training Center

16:26project for us. I have some um

16:32graphics here for the projector if

16:36that's possible.

16:41Thank you. Let's do that.

16:47We have reviewed the recommended

16:50conditions of approval by staff and we

16:52do agree with those conditions. Just to

16:55put that on the record.

17:01Before I get started, I did want to say

17:03that the city does refer to the East

17:05Side Education and Training Center

17:07building as Etsy. This is the second

17:10project of its kind. The first project

17:13was the westside education and training

17:15center that we constructed and opened in

17:18the historic west side. We call that

17:20Wetsy. So just to keep things simpler

17:23tonight, I am going to refer to the

17:25project as Etsy.

17:29This project is a partnership between

17:32the city and CSN through use of a

17:35federal grant.

17:38These projects are um [clears throat]

17:43being done to create direct pathways for

17:48education and training. And I need to

17:51grab another piece of paper.

17:57For career seekers, they create

18:00credentialed training programs in

18:01advanced manufacturing, construction

18:04trades, IT, medical professions, and

18:07HVAC. For businesses, it will assist

18:10with business development and planning,

18:13printing and broadband, as well as for

18:17the community provide assistance with

18:19housing, food, child care, clothing,

18:21health, and financial literacy.

18:24So currently the Westside Education and

18:27Training Center serves about 1,500

18:30individuals annually.

18:34Tammy Malich, the director for the

18:37city's youth development um program is

18:40here tonight as well and she did provide

18:42me with some statistics. For example,

18:46a recent 119 cohort of students, um 81

18:51of them are now already employed. So the

18:54statistics are great on the facility and

18:57we're really excited to continue it with

18:59the Etsy. So now to talk about the site

19:02itself. The site is going to be located

19:05on the southwest corner of Bonanza and

19:08POS within the um Desert Pines area.

19:12It's approximately 3 acres.

19:15The construction cost is about $19

19:18million and we are at 50% complete

19:21design and public works department.

19:27On this graphic you can see some

19:29photographs of the existing site which

19:32is the golf course. Sure many of you

19:34have been there.

19:38This is the site plan.

19:41The building is going to be

19:42approximately 16,000 square feet

19:47and will include parking as well as a

19:51fenced in area for outdoor seating.

19:55As far as the parking spaces, there will

19:57be 111 standard parking stalls and five

20:01accessible spaces.

20:03For off sites, there will be a new right

20:05turn lane

20:07constructed on eastbound Bonanza to

20:11southbound POS. And the existing bus

20:14turnout will remain.

20:17We will be putting in 10-ft sidewalks

20:19around the perimeter.

20:26For landscaping improvements, we will be

20:28in uh planting nine different varieties

20:31of trees. Nearly 100 trees will be going

20:35in with the project.

20:42This is a graphic showing the parking

20:44area looking to the north of the new

20:46building.

20:53This is a rendering standing at the

20:56corner of the intersection looking south

20:58and west.

21:04Here are elevations of the building and

21:07the color palette.

21:14And we are anticipating starting

21:16construction in the winter of 2027. And

21:19with that, I would ask for approval for

21:21the Etsy project and take any questions

21:24you might have.

21:25>> Thank you. At this time, this item has

21:27been noticed for public comment. Is

21:28there anyone in the audience who would

21:29like to speak at this time? Seeing none,

21:32I will close public comment, turn it

21:34over to members of the commission. Are

21:36there any comments to be made?

21:38>> Commissioner Dalvio.

21:40>> Yes, thank you. Um, just a couple. Is

21:42this the awarding body, the city of Las

21:44Vegas or is this a CCSD view?

21:47This is a partnership grant that is

21:50between the city of Las Vegas and CSN,

21:53the community college.

21:55>> Okay.

21:55>> And this will be the second one.

21:58>> Okay.

21:59>> Is this does this turn into a is this a

22:01prevailing wage project?

22:03>> Yes.

22:03>> Okay. Thank you.

22:04>> You're welcome.

22:07>> Commissioner Walters.

22:08>> Yeah. I just I'm disclosing that I'm

22:10employed by CSN, which is an applicant

22:13in this matter. So, I will not be

22:15abstaining from voting because I have no

22:17pecuniary interest in this project and

22:19I'm not materially affected.

22:22>> Commissioner Schlotman.

22:24>> Yes. Uh, thank you for the presentation

22:26and um the the building looks great. You

22:29did a great job with u design. It meets

22:32the uh our goals of the 2015 master plan

22:36and it also uh meets the development

22:39goals uh that were set forward in the

22:42development agreement. when it come

22:44forward to us. So, we knew this was

22:46coming, but it looks better than uh than

22:48I envisioned. And thank you for putting

22:50in all the landscaping and everything.

22:52Madam Chair, I'm ready to make a motion.

22:53>> Please do.

24:11SDR1 for proposed regional park staff

24:14may please have the report

24:19thank you again Gina Venlass city

24:21engineer and deputy director for public

24:23works for the record here with Michelle

24:26Brida from Carpenter Sellers Delgado

24:29city's architect for the Northwest

24:31Regional Park project.

24:35Tonight, I want to briefly walk you

24:37through the Northwest Regional Park

24:39project elements as well as address some

24:42of the issues that were brought up at

24:44the required neighborhood meeting that

24:46we held on September 30th.

24:56The city project you have before you

24:58tonight covers the GPA and zoning

25:00actions for approximately a 147 acre

25:04vacant BLM parcel located at the

25:07northwest corner of Log Cabin in Alcapy

25:11Tan in Ward 6.

25:14This parcel was acquired by the BLM

25:17through a parks. Let me make sure I get

25:20this correct here. recreation and public

25:23purposes lease with the BLM. We got

25:25approval from them in May of this year.

25:30So on the screen you see the project

25:32site bordered in red and above it north

25:35of Moccasin. Here I added um a quick

25:40snip from the Monument Hills master plan

25:43development. At the neighborhood

25:45meeting, residents were inquiring about

25:49residential development in the area. So,

25:51I felt that it was important tonight

25:53that I represent the proximity of these

25:57two projects.

26:00The park parcel is within the city, but

26:03immediately to the east and to the

26:05southeast are county islands with county

26:09residents.

26:11That is what makes this park regionally

26:13significant and hence the name Northwest

26:16Regional Park.

26:19The third application tonight is for

26:22phase 1A of the park itself, which is

26:25covering approximately

26:2714 acres in this here quadrant that I am

26:30pointing at on the screen. Construction

26:33costs are estimated to be about $35

26:36million and the level of effort right

26:38now is 50 uh excuse me 30% design

26:42complete.

26:44The city has been planning this park for

26:47nearly 10 years now

26:50and as a part of the site itself wanted

26:54to basically uphold the southern Nevada

26:58Pyute people in the park design as well

27:01as the historic railroad, the Las Vegas

27:04and Tonapa railroad to be specific which

27:06was built in 1907.

27:09And you can see some of the railroad

27:12spurs in the aerial image itself.

27:21These are some photographs of the

27:22existing parcel from different

27:24directions and it is desert.

27:32Now the fun stuff. This project is going

27:35to include an amphitheater, a dog park

27:38with multiple cells utilizing

27:42um real grass,

27:44a railroad themed playground and water

27:47play area, otherwise known as sometimes

27:49we say splash pads.

27:53There is a new restroom and maintenance

27:56building

27:58as well as the parking facility and a

28:01passive grass area here to the south.

28:07And at the neighborhood meeting we had

28:08on September 30th, we were asked about

28:11what outreach the city had done before

28:14this entitlement

28:16came to be. And I didn't know the

28:18details at that meeting. So, I did want

28:20to get back um to them tonight and share

28:24some of the information that I found

28:26out.

28:28There was a neighborhood survey done in

28:30December of 2020. We remember 2020 as a

28:34very interesting time for all of us. So,

28:36there was a Zoom meeting held in

28:39reaction to this survey. There were over

28:41600 respondents.

28:44The top three park amenities identified

28:47by respondents were trails and

28:50sidewalks, natural open spaces, and

28:54playgrounds.

28:5560% of respondents expressed interest in

28:58a dog park.

29:0184% indicated a preference for natural

29:04turf within the park, which the dog park

29:07will be natural grass as well as the

29:10green space shown here on the southern

29:12side.

29:1547% of respondents expressed an interest

29:19in soccer fields and 44% of respondents

29:23had expressed an interest in equestrian

29:27trails.

29:29So with all of that information, you

29:31will see um tonight that the components

29:34of phase 1A meet several of the

29:37respondents interests and ideas that

29:40they voiced about the park back in 2020.

29:47The parking lot will have 268 standard

29:50parking spaces and nine accessible

29:53spaces. It does have a locked vehicle

29:57entry gate into the park located between

30:02Rustin and Rocky

30:06off of El Capitan to be clear.

30:11So as as I mentioned that gate I think

30:15it's important because at the

30:16neighborhood meeting security was also

30:19raised as a issue of concern for the

30:22neighbors in the area.

30:26The city park hours are 7:00 a.m. to 11

30:30p.m. at all of our parks and the city's

30:33marshalss provide 247

30:36coverage for city facilities.

30:41Both the park hours and the marshall's

30:43numbers are posted on signage within

30:46city parks.

30:48They will handle opening and closing the

30:50vehicle gate when the park opens at 7

30:53and again when it closes at 11:00 as

30:55well as locking up the restrooms and

30:57that sort of business on the park.

31:04The city anticipates that this park will

31:06function similar to the Centennial Hills

31:09Park. If you've been out in that area,

31:14we had gotten some statistics from the

31:16Marshall's unit and that park this year

31:19has seen since January four arrests and

31:2214 citations.

31:24So, relatively low for a very large park

31:28um in our city.

31:32I also wanted to talk briefly about the

31:35offsites.

31:37LCAPY Tan is an 80 foot

31:41rightway and the city's trails plan

31:44requires that a 30 foot multi-use trail

31:48be installed on the west side of El

31:50Capitan. So, what we will be doing with

31:53this project as is mirroring what has

31:56been built on the south side of of um

31:59log cabin on the west with the horse

32:02trail be a 10-ft path for the horses,

32:0510-ft sidewalk for pedestrians with two

32:09separate 5-ft amenity zones.

32:15We anticipate that when we open this

32:18park, there will be one lane in each

32:20direction, again mirroring the south

32:22side. However, [snorts] it is important

32:25to note that in the future, as an 80

32:27foot ride ofway, it is possible to

32:29eventually require two lanes in each

32:32direction.

32:35We will be doing a traffic study with

32:37this park development plan is required

32:40by one of the conditions of approval

32:42tonight.

32:50This graphic shows the landscape plan

32:53and we will be installing 400 trees and

32:57800 shrubs of drought tolerant varieties

33:00as well as the grass we already talked

33:02about.

33:10In this rendering, you see the entry

33:13bridge into the park. This is situated

33:16west of the parking lot and it is a over

33:19300 ft, more like 350 ft from the back

33:23of the horse trail. So, we had left

33:26plenty of space

33:28between the actual park function and the

33:31neighbors to the east of El Capitan.

33:36You can see how the architectural

33:38elements blend in with natural desert

33:42environments

33:45and some of the features of the park

33:48like workers tent exhibits shown here.

33:53The amphitheater is in the back. Hard to

33:56see on this rendering, but I will show

33:57one soon.

33:59The render uh the amphitheater has

34:01capacity for 350 attendees.

34:05However, it is not being set up to model

34:09that at Centennial Hills with um a lot

34:12of access to technology to have very

34:15loud, very crowded concerts. This will

34:18have a different sort of programming to

34:20it.

34:22That is something else that the

34:23residents had brought up at the

34:25neighborhood meeting.

34:30Here is a rendering of the proposed

34:32entry bridge.

34:34the restrooms along the plaza with the

34:38picnic areas with shade structures as

34:41well as the amphitheater.

34:48And with that, I would request approval

34:50for the city's Northwest Regional Park

34:52tonight with the conditions given to us

34:55by staff and answer any questions you

34:58may have.

34:59>> Thank you so much. This item has been

35:00noticed for public comment. Is there

35:02anyone in the audience who would like to

35:03speak at this time? Please come forward.

35:05Um, if there are more than one, you are

35:07welcome to line up here at the podium

35:10and then please state your name for the

35:11record.

35:13>> Yes,

35:16>> either of these. Hi, I'm Francis

35:19Jeffley. I'm at 9625 Fion in Quarter

35:22Horse Falls that borders the park. At

35:25the meeting we were at last week with

35:27these guys, the one thing that was of

35:29concern to me and it's more for the

35:31money that's being spent. Um they were

35:35talking about there's not going to be

35:36fences around this in the development

35:37stages. I think it should be fenced

35:39because I walk that every day. I spend n

35:41an hour to 90 minutes out there with my

35:44that's my dog park. um every day and

35:46there are guys in their side by sides,

35:49their four-wheel drives and their um

35:52motorcycles and this park will get torn

35:54up by those people if there's not a way

35:56to keep them out. So, that would be

35:57something that you need to add to your

35:59to be considered list. That's all we

36:01have. If we can keep the noise down at

36:03night, too, you know, that'd be great.

36:04All right. Thank you.

36:05>> Thank you. Please state your name for

36:07the record.

36:08>> Hi, David Morgan. I live in

36:10unincorporated Clark County that they

36:12mentioned which is about a block away

36:13from the corner of this project. Um me

36:17and several of my neighbors would really

36:18prefer that we wait to develop this

36:20whole parcel before the 15 acres. You're

36:23talking about 147 acres that are

36:25supposed to be combined park as well as

36:27later. I understand possibly a school is

36:30what uh I I noticed in the comments. Um

36:33the infrastructure is just not there.

36:35You've mentioned the previous gentleman

36:37mentioned the fencing. um it's okay to

36:39put a gate on it, but if you look at uh

36:41Craig Ranch Park, if you look at Sunset

36:43Park, they've had issues with their

36:44large regional parks that were not

36:47fenced. And still Sunset Park is not

36:48fenced, and there's problems out there.

36:50I know you want to compare the the crime

36:52rate to maybe Centennial Hills. This is

36:54going to be way bigger eventually. And

36:55so starting this out now was something

36:58that can't be controlled with fencing.

36:59We don't think and my neighbors agree

37:02should be the way to go with just a lock

37:03gate that you hope will keep that out

37:05whether it's crime or vagrancy or

37:07whatever is going to be happening. But

37:08if you can do it alto together as 147

37:11acre parcel later or whatever is not

37:13going to be the school. That's what we

37:15would recommend. You mentioned the

37:17two-lane roads. I lived right on El

37:19Capitan. There is not room for two-lane

37:20roads on either side of that. So what

37:22are they going to do? try to take some

37:24of my property. I'd like to evaluate

37:26that before we start to build a park

37:27there on the corner that's only 15 of

37:30these 147 acres. Uh you mentioned uh the

37:33marshalss and park service would be

37:34taking care of security. There's not

37:36enough. Um we can't get anyone to take

37:39care of the issues we have out there

37:40from uh drag racing to street takeovers.

37:43There's never a law enforcement

37:44presence. So we would like all of this

37:46to be evaluated as well as the

37:48infrastructure impact when the 147 gets

37:52built out. not now for 15 and hope that

37:55you develop that later. The

37:56infrastructure exists on Sky Canyon Park

37:59Run, which is the next major road o

38:01over. It's already a fivelane road, two

38:03on each side with a turn lane in the

38:05middle. If you wait to do it, you could

38:07build the entrance on that instead of a

38:09horse trail occupied area for the county

38:11residents right near a rural

38:13preservation area that's only two lanes

38:16and doesn't have the width to be

38:17developed into a four-lane road. So, we

38:19would just appreciate that if you take

38:20that into account. Consider this all at

38:23once instead of just a 15acre parcel

38:25right now. Thank you.

38:26>> Thank you. Please state your name for

38:28the record.

38:30>> The name is Robert Corbowski. I live on

38:34my backyard faces log cabin. You call it

38:37a park, which is very good. Phase one.

38:40I'm concerned about phase two, maybe

38:43phase three. I look at a park, Central

38:46Park in New York City as a park. The

38:48rest of this phase is going to be sports

38:50fields. It's a sports complex which is

38:53not a park. It's going to my quality of

38:56life is going to be ruined by this.

39:01As you looked at it, I I think you got

39:0210 or 12 different uh basketball courts.

39:07>> Soccer.

39:08>> Soccer. Well, soccer. If you ever take a

39:10ride down Sky Canyon Park Drive and they

39:14have the tournaments there every other

39:16week, the parking is horrendous. They're

39:19not there's not enough parking space,

39:21right? Yes. So,

39:27I don't consider I consider that to be a

39:30sports facility and it's you're calling

39:32it a park. I can understand. Yes, you

39:34want to put the uh you want to put

39:36soccer, you can put one or two fields

39:38further back towards moccasin. Also, the

39:42entrance to the park which is going to

39:43be on lock cabin. We have Sky Canyon

39:46Park Drive which is a main derafair

39:49and they could put an entrance there and

39:51have parking at that end and people

39:53could walk in. The overflow crowd is

39:56going to be parking on log cabin like

39:58they do on Sky Canyon Park Drive and the

40:01school two schools on either side with

40:04at the on Allen Beck Park.

40:07You know, I'm not have no problem with

40:09phase one. Phase two is the problem and

40:11I think it has to be addressed at this

40:13point because like I said, it's not a

40:16park. It's a sports complex. A park is

40:19trees, plants, and flowers. Thank you.

40:23Please state your name for the record.

40:25>> Um, my name is Michelle Blauard and I

40:28too live off of Log Cabin. Um, I just

40:33wanted to say I can appreciate all the

40:35work that I was at the other meeting as

40:38well. Um, that of trying to make it

40:40natural, but like um the other two have

40:44expressed, my concern mostly is what

40:46it's going to end up. I would prefer

40:49that it would be

40:51like this seems such a small portion.

40:54Um, and I agree with the sports complex.

40:58Like I'd really like to see it at least

40:59halfway. I'm sure it's a funding thing,

41:01but I think

41:04I it's too soon to me to just do a

41:09smaller portion like that. But I I do

41:12appreciate what you guys are doing and

41:14everything and to make it more natural.

41:16I don't know if so much of it being

41:19sports park if we could do some kind of

41:22compromise to that, you know, like I

41:25think there's more discussion needed.

41:27That's all I wanted to say.

41:30>> Thank you.

41:30>> Thank you. Is there anyone else who

41:32would like to speak at this time?

41:34Seeing none, I will bring the applicant

41:37back forward if you'd like to address

41:38any of the concerns, but I will also

41:40turn over to members of the commission,

41:42starting with Commissioner Taylor. Uh,

41:45thank you, Madam Chair. Um, thank you

41:47for the presentation. Thank you for all

41:49the work. Um, I am sorry that I was not

41:51available for the neighborhood meeting.

41:53Um, nor was I engaged at this level um,

41:57in 2020 when the questionnaire went out.

42:00Um, I I'm going to be really honest. I I

42:03have concerns with the park and with the

42:07future phases because I'm inclined to

42:10agree with these neighbors that it's

42:12basically just a soccer field, right?

42:14It's just a soccer complex. I'm

42:16concerned I agree with the neighbors um

42:20and living up where I live and having

42:22experienced what happens at Floyd Lamb,

42:25what happens, you know, on some of the

42:27roads, I have concerns about it being

42:30phased and not fenced. Um, and I'm

42:33sorry, this is probably, you know, stuff

42:35that we should have had a discussion

42:36about had I been able to make the

42:37neighborhood meeting, but um, I I I do

42:41and I I also am just sort of curious

42:43what the expectation is for an

42:46amphitheater that's going to have

42:47limited uses. Um,

42:51so I

42:54I know that the city staff will be very

42:56unhappy with me, but I I would really

42:59like to hold this to have another

43:01discussion about it. I don't know if

43:02anything is changeable, mutable, if it

43:04is just etched in stone because this is

43:06a lot of hard work and money that the

43:09city has put in. But I

43:12I live up here. I represent this ward

43:15and I am I I just have some concerns

43:17again about the future phasing and I

43:19know we're just voting on phase one but

43:22it just it doesn't resonate and I don't

43:25think it's appropriate for the ward at

43:27this time as it is and so I would really

43:30appreciate the opportunity to have

43:31another discussion about it and I could

43:33get outvoted but that is just what I am

43:38that's just kind of where I am with this

43:40right now. So, I mean, you're certainly

43:41welcome to um address any of my

43:44concerns, but like I'm looking at the

43:46future phases and I just see eight

43:47soccer fields or nine soccer fields. And

43:49I just don't think that that is

43:53that [clears throat] just concerns me.

43:54And if we vote on this phase with this

43:56expectation that it's just going to be

43:58nothing but nine soccer fields, then I

44:00also don't think that that's the best

44:01use. We have people who are interested

44:03in baseball. We have people that are

44:04interested in having an aquatic complex.

44:07and and I just am concerned about voting

44:08on this phase one even though you're

44:10saying the next phases are not in the

44:13system yet. It looks pretty much like

44:15the phases are basically built out or

44:17conceived. So I think maybe one of the

44:23let's go back to this. So phase 1 A is

44:27within this um quadrant. So it's kind of

44:30a kite shape inside that quadrant.

44:34So we do have the overall

44:38plan for the 147.

44:42This is just a plan as we have said

44:45multiple times tonight all of us. But um

44:49right now the you can see over here the

44:51soccer fields that are being

44:55that is the idea and that is what parks

44:58and wreck looks at for programming

45:01regional parks. what is the demand for

45:04in our community? What is the demand for

45:06the 700,000 you know city residents and

45:10for the county for that matter because

45:12it will serve both. So that is derived

45:15from data through the parks and rock. So

45:19CCSD, one of the neighbors mentioned

45:21tonight is looking at putting a high

45:24school in this quadrant. They do not

45:27have permission for that school yet. if

45:30you go to their website and look at

45:32their planned schools, you're not going

45:35to see this on there. So, I just want to

45:38clarify that because it can confuse

45:40people. Um, and they will say, well,

45:42they're not planning a school there.

45:44They they they are they're high level

45:46planning for it. Whether or not it will

45:48happen or not, I can't say, but we have

45:51left that space available for school.

45:55North of the school, the long-term plan

45:58is for baseball and softball fields.

46:00Like you mentioned, there is a demand

46:02for those as well. And with this overall

46:06layout, the idea was that those fields

46:09can be shared with the city wreck uses

46:13as well as high school use.

46:17And then the northeast quadrant of the

46:19147 acres is where you will see the

46:22aquatic complex. That is also something

46:25that we know was in high demand for the

46:28area

46:30as well as a pool, another passive um

46:33two different passive park space areas,

46:36actually three, and another soccer

46:40field. So, currently, as far as funding

46:44goes, we have funding just for this

46:47phase 1A. It was secured through a grant

46:50from the Southern Nevada Public Lands

46:52Management Act

46:54through BLM.

46:56That funding does have a

47:00deadline on it, which is 5 years from

47:03the date we got the grant and I just

47:05don't have that date right now. Um,

47:07>> do you have a ballpark on that date?

47:09>> I think it's 2029. Like we have to be

47:12closed out.

47:13>> It has to be fully constructed and all

47:14funds expended.

47:15>> Correct. Okay. Correct. And so does that

47:18allow you to fence in phase 1A and and

47:21so I'm sorry like I did not realize how

47:23much more phasing there was and what's

47:25the timeline for these other phases.

47:29So what we would like to do is once

47:32phase 1A is out into construction, we

47:35would like to start design for a second

47:38phase, which would be either the soccer

47:41fields immediately north of log cabin or

47:44the soccer fields in this space here. It

47:48will just depend on how funding is

47:51looking and different opportunities.

47:54So, with that being said, if we were

47:56able to get design going, um, we would

47:59like to then start construction for a

48:01second phase, which we're actually

48:03calling like phase 1B and 1 C

48:07sometime would be after construction

48:08ended on this. So, maybe 2029, if we're

48:12closing out paperwork for this 1A, then

48:14maybe we can be starting phase 1B or 1

48:18C. And what's your funding availability

48:20to fence all of 1A while it's

48:22constructed and other phases are

48:24pending? Again, I'm just going to tell

48:26you like I live right behind Floyd Lamb

48:28and I know what goes on in the sort of

48:32you know the motorized

48:34like dirt bikes and quads and electric

48:38bikes and you know all those walking

48:41trails and all of that BLM RPN land just

48:46gets because there's no fencing there's

48:48no barrier to keep people from going in

48:50there and it it's one of my great

48:52frustrations because it does never it

48:54never gets policed. it never the

48:55marshalss don't come out. It's you know

48:57really it's a sensitive area and there's

49:00no oversight on it and so I am concerned

49:04that this will be the same thing.

49:08So, as far as fencing goes, um

49:14I might

49:17recommend that um or ask you if you

49:22would be amendable to

49:24having that discussed between now and

49:27city council and then I can solidify if

49:30the funds would be available for the for

49:32fencing. It is a really large park.

49:35It looks so dwarfed on here, but in the

49:38real world, it's it's huge. And so, I

49:41would need to just like run the numbers

49:42and look into that before I could

49:44definitively say. Another idea might be,

49:48and based on your firsthand experience,

49:49probably not the best idea,

49:53but might we do something where we move

49:55forward with what is the standard for

49:57city parks, which is not to fence parks.

49:59I mean, we we really don't have a lot of

50:01fenced parks within the city of Las

50:03Vegas for a reason because they're open

50:05to the public and we want them to look

50:07open. We don't want them to look closed

50:09off. Um, might we put a condition that

50:13possibly like a year after opening that

50:16we come back for required review to talk

50:18about how it's going because I would be

50:21curious if the activity of the park

50:24itself and the presence of marshals and

50:27parks maintenance would deter some of

50:29that behavior. But again, you

50:31>> I'm telling you from my experience,

50:33there is no presence of marshalss and

50:34there is no presence of park maintenance

50:36that deters the behavior. So that's my

50:39experience. I mean, you might look at

50:41the fencing that doesn't look like

50:43fencing that's at the walking trails by

50:45Floyd Lamb, the detention basin walking

50:47trails because it's like posts and

50:49cable. Um but I yeah I mean I'm just

50:54very concerned and I would

51:00at city council there may be a different

51:01discussion but I I I

51:04just think that it needs to have some

51:07discussion and some better sense of

51:09security as you're starting to move this

51:11forward. Um, and so I don't know if

51:15that's something like I just I again

51:18like this is killing me because I'm like

51:19I haven't been in on this and I'm

51:21putting a big problem in the middle of a

51:25lot of work, but I think it's an issue

51:26and I think that it was well stated by

51:29some of the neighbors. So I

51:32and if you go to city council like I

51:34have no advising vote um on whether or

51:39not you're going to do it. So I have to

51:41just sort of like wash I like be done.

51:44I'm I'm done. I don't have any other

51:45control or input on this. So that's why

51:48my inclination is to sort of ask if it

51:50can be held. If that doesn't affect your

51:51grant, that would be my concern is that

51:54would impact your snipma funding and

51:56timeline, but I just am concerned about

51:58this.

51:59>> Okay. Nothing to apologize for. That's

52:02why we're here tonight to talk to you

52:03about the project. So definitely nothing

52:05to apologize for. and um and we're okay

52:08with the obeyance. If that makes you

52:10more comfortable, then we can go ahead

52:12and agree to that and come back in a

52:15month.

52:16>> Okay, that would make me feel more

52:17comfortable. I would be so happy to meet

52:19with you and to go through things. I

52:21would carve out time without even a

52:24question to spend time with you guys.

52:26>> Fantastic. Let's do it.

52:27>> All right. So, let's then uh unless

52:30anybody has anything else on this.

52:31>> Seeing none, please make a motion.

52:33>> Okay. I'd like to do a motion to obey

52:35number 44.

52:38Uh that's 26-0422

52:41until the November planning commission

52:43meeting.

52:50>> Motion carries.

52:53>> And for the record, that's November

52:5410th, that meeting.

52:56>> November 10th. What did I say? I just

53:00said November meeting. Whatever that

53:01was. Okay. November 10th.

53:04>> All right. And with that, we are moving

53:05to agenda item 10. 26-0382

53:10SDR1 applicant owner Storybook Retail

53:12LLC for possible action on land use

53:14entitlement project request for proposed

53:16service vehicle storage facility with

53:18waiverss of appendix F interim downtown

53:20Las Vegas development standards area 1

53:22on the east side of Commerce Street

53:23approximately 345 ft north of Charleston

53:26Boulevard. Staff, can I please get the

53:28report?

53:31Good evening, Madame Chair. This is

53:32Steve Swanton with Community

53:34Development.

53:36The proposed deliveries and service

53:38vehicle storage development is

53:40compatible with the existing commercial

53:42and civic uses on adjacent properties

53:45due to multiple existing overhead

53:47electrical utility lines along Commerce

53:49Street. Staff supports the building

53:51setback waiver requests. Staff therefore

53:54recommends approval of the site

53:55development plan review uh request with

53:58conditions. Thank you.

54:00>> Thank you. Please state your name for

54:01the record.

54:02>> Good evening. Jennifer Lazovich, 1980

54:04Festival Plaza Drive here this evening

54:06on behalf of the applicant. The site

54:08sits in the area that is colored light

54:11blue which is zone CM for commercial

54:13industrial. Uh it's just north of

54:16Charleston and Main Street sits on this

54:18side and Commerce Street sits on that

54:20side. Uh the proposed use is for a

54:24private EV charging facility. Uh the

54:26purpose of the the um EV charging

54:29facility is to uh charge cars that would

54:33then uh be used to transport passengers

54:36after they were charged. On this plan,

54:38it's easier to see this way. Um but just

54:41for reference, Main Street sits at the

54:43top of the page and Commerce sits at the

54:46bottom of the page. If you drive this

54:48area, you know that there are very um

54:50significant overhead power lines uh

54:54going along Commerce Street. Uh and so

54:56there is some reference to the uh

54:59landscaping that we can put under those

55:01power lines. Um so we do have what we

55:03can do, but we can't do uh tall trees.

55:06We also um have both the entry and the

55:09exit coming off of commerce. What that

55:12does is that leaves no uh vehicular

55:15access coming on or off Main Street. And

55:18I'll get to that a little bit later on

55:19in my presentation. The site itself is

55:22gated and we will have a 24-hour uh

55:25security staff on site as cars come in

55:28and out of the site um at any time of

55:30the day or night. Uh the site is

55:33providing about 50 parking spaces on

55:35site. In addition to that, we have some

55:37operation buildings and of course the

55:39security booth that I mentioned. In

55:41terms of trees, the site has 16

55:44perimeter trees where only nine are

55:46required and we have 17,000 square ft of

55:50kind of open landscape area where only

55:52500 uh square feet is required. Uh as

55:57staff mentioned, this use is permitted

56:00in this particular zoning category. Um

56:04we believe that uh this does provide a

56:07service to the downtown area again

56:09because it is moving people um to and

56:12from. In addition, it's um further

56:14helping with the overall parking

56:16situation in the downtown area because

56:19it isn't cars that people are driving

56:21directly downtown and needing to take up

56:23additional parking spaces, but it does

56:26offer an alternative transportation

56:28method for people who are in and around

56:30this area. Uh although the use is

56:33permitted under this land use category

56:36um you know we understand where the use

56:38is located. We understand the vision of

56:40this area and so we would like to offer

56:43an additional condition and it is rather

56:46lengthy. Uh this has been previously

56:48provided to staff but I'm going to go

56:50ahead and read it for the record. Uh,

56:52the developer shall enter into an

56:54agreement with the city of Las Vegas

56:56permitting the city to use designated

56:58mural areas on the east side of the

57:008-oot block wall along Main Street for

57:02the installation in city maintenance of

57:04an artistic mural to enhance the

57:06east-facing perimeter wall with public

57:08art. This agreement must be executed by

57:11the parties and recorded against the

57:12subject uh prior to the issuance of

57:15building permits for the primary

57:16structure. The agreement will provide at

57:19a minimum one provision of monies to the

57:21city by the developer for the city to

57:23contract with a mural artist to design,

57:26paint, and complete a mural in the

57:28location generally shown on exhibit A,

57:30the amount of which will not exceed

57:32$90,000 for such design and

57:34installation. Two, the money shall be

57:36provided prior to the issuance of

57:38building permits for the primary

57:39structure. Three, that the city shall

57:42own uh copyright for the art

57:45installation subject to the terms of the

57:47agreement between the city and the mural

57:48artist. Four, that the city will have a

57:51reasonable right of access to the

57:53subject property for the city to install

57:55and maintain the artwork. Five, a

57:57license for the area shown on the east

58:00perimeter wall for the city to install

58:01and maintain a mural. Six, a process for

58:04the developer and city to find artwork

58:06that is mutually acceptable by both

58:08parties. Seven, that the city manager

58:10may execute such an agreement on behalf

58:12of the city and eight, for other

58:14provisions necessary to carry out the

58:16intent of the developer to allow the

58:18city to use the mural area for public

58:20art. And then the second condition would

58:22read, construct an 8-oot perimeter block

58:25wall along Main Street. Uh the main

58:27street side, as I noted earlier, sits

58:29along here. What we originally proposed

58:31was a rod iron fence. Uh but again

58:34trying to lean into the art for the

58:36area. We would be uh proposing that this

58:40fence, rod iron fencing that we had be

58:42changed to an 8ft tall block wall and

58:45that would be where the mural would go.

58:47It would be on the east side of this

58:48block wall facing towards Main Street.

58:51That was a rather lengthy condition that

58:52I read, but uh the commissioners may

58:55recall that a similar condition was

58:56placed on an application for a project

58:59up in the northwest that faces towards a

59:02city park and um the idea behind that

59:05was going to be that it was baseball

59:06themed. Murals in this area are somewhat

59:09um present today. Immediately to the

59:13north of the site, sitting in

59:18this area right here is an Envy uh

59:20energy substation. And along the main

59:24street side, they have painted the block

59:26wall. But in addition to that, along

59:28this side, their south facing uh block

59:31wall. Um it's my understanding the city

59:33received a grant and just recently or

59:36somewhat recently completed a mural on

59:38the side of that the southside facing

59:40block wall of the V energy substation.

59:43So um the idea or the intent behind uh

59:46leaning into the mural is that it we're

59:48kind of seeing it in the area as this

59:50area transitions into other uses. Um and

59:53so with that we would ask you to follow

59:55staff's recommendation of approval and

59:57I'd be happy to answer any questions.

1:00:02Thank you. And with that, this item has

1:00:04been for public comment. Is there anyone

1:00:06who would like to speak at this time?

1:00:08Seeing none, I'll be closing public

1:00:10comment. Turning over to members of the

1:00:11commission, starting with Commissioner

1:00:13Schlottman.

1:00:14>> Thank you, uh, Chair through you. Uh, I

1:00:16have a few comments and thank you for

1:00:17meeting with me on this particular

1:00:18project. Um, I I I'm for charging

1:00:21stations, but I'm for charging stations

1:00:24that actually serve the public. um that

1:00:28when and you could say that this serves

1:00:31the public because you know it's

1:00:33charging vehicles, the Whimos, Isuks,

1:00:36all these u um these um you know

1:00:40driverless vehicles and I I' I'd love to

1:00:43be in one myself. I just don't think it

1:00:46needs to be charged right on Main

1:00:47Street. [clears throat] The problem is

1:00:50we have a very finite amount of land

1:00:53down in the arts district and when we

1:00:57put a charging station that how many

1:01:00lots is this like three four lots wide

1:01:03it's pretty wide because the depth from

1:01:06Main Street to Commerce is is pretty

1:01:08deep and this is a lot wider than than

1:01:10it is deep. So, I think counting the

1:01:13lots on the the the little map you had,

1:01:16it takes up about four lots. So, as

1:01:19you're walking up from Wyoming going

1:01:22down Main Street, you pass Abel Baker

1:01:24Brewing, you pass Viking Mike's, you

1:01:27pass uh La Poutique Bohem, and then

1:01:30right next to it is bar, bar,

1:01:32restaurant, restaurant, gallery, retail

1:01:35facility, antique store, and there's a

1:01:39a, you know, walkable, pedestrian

1:01:41friendly area. You get up to north of

1:01:43Charleston and we really been trying to

1:01:46push to get more activity and more

1:01:48people walking north of Charleston.

1:01:50Right now we don't see that pedestrian

1:01:51traffic going north of Charleston. Right

1:01:53now we have the the new English hotel.

1:01:56We have Midtown being constructed. 826

1:01:59and 8:30 Main, which is um four food and

1:02:02beverage establishments. You have Chen

1:02:04Chen, Arts Factory, Art Square, and

1:02:07Audio Bar, and a couple others. It

1:02:10sounds like a lot, but I could sit here

1:02:12for an hour and name everything south of

1:02:14Charleston. And you know, and one of

1:02:17those things, it it's just people and

1:02:21walking the streets, the energy walking

1:02:23the streets. Um, it just creates that

1:02:26creates another level of energy that you

1:02:28don't have north of Charleston. I would

1:02:31kind of relate it to if you're walking

1:02:34down the strip and you're passing city

1:02:37center and you know Blaggio and Caesars

1:02:40and Cosmo Apollo 10in then you get to uh

1:02:43you get down to Foundation Blue uh or to

1:02:47the wind and you have a a a half a mile

1:02:51of dead zone where there's nothing

1:02:53happening. Once you get north of

1:02:55Charleston, we're creating, you know,

1:02:57charging stations that are four lots

1:02:59wide, buted up to a substation, which

1:03:04basically you're you're not going to a

1:03:06substation.

1:03:08I've we tried uh discussing trying to

1:03:11see if we can get you know half of this

1:03:1450%

1:03:1625% maybe uh now seeing how large it is

1:03:20open to the public because people

1:03:22driving down uh driving down the highway

1:03:24in in the area. If they see a charging

1:03:27station right next to the arts district,

1:03:29they would pull in here. They would

1:03:31spend an hour, maybe two hours. They'd

1:03:33go visit the galleries, the retail

1:03:35facilities, the the bars, the

1:03:37restaurants, and they would they would

1:03:39patronize those uh those establishments.

1:03:43But a driverless vehicle is going to

1:03:45come in here, park, charge, and take

1:03:48off. And

1:03:51back in the day when we had the 18B arts

1:03:53district code, we we had prohibited

1:03:56uses. And they were sexually oriented

1:03:59businesses. Is there liquor liquor uses,

1:04:02automotive uses, whether if that's a

1:04:04transmission shop, uh automotive repair

1:04:07minor, major, um you know, that the list

1:04:11went went on and [clears throat] on.

1:04:15We finally, uh adopted the new

1:04:17formbbased code and we didn't have the

1:04:20prohibited uses, but this still gives us

1:04:23the ability to take a look at this and

1:04:24say, is this what we want the the arts

1:04:27district to be north of Charleston? Do

1:04:29we want to do we want to promote like

1:04:32activity and you know pedestrian

1:04:34friendly pathways and things that people

1:04:37can interact with or do we want to put

1:04:39car car lots or car charging stations?

1:04:43And I just don't see that this is

1:04:45harmonious and compatible with um with

1:04:48what's going on down there. So, I'm not

1:04:50going to be able to support it. Um if

1:04:53anybody else has any comments, I'll

1:04:55listen to your comments. But

1:04:57[clears throat]

1:04:58>> Commissioner Taylor,

1:04:59>> I'm sorry and I'm sorry I missed your

1:05:00presentation, but I I we have had a

1:05:02discussion about this project and I

1:05:04guess and I'm sorry, Commissioner

1:05:05Schlotman that I ran in in the middle of

1:05:07your comments, but you and I have had a

1:05:09discussion about this project. So I I

1:05:11guess my concern is and I recognize and

1:05:14appreciate the discussion about the uses

1:05:16and the vibrancy and the activity and

1:05:19stuff, but when it is a permitted use, I

1:05:22struggle with whether or not it is

1:05:25something that ought to be

1:05:28permitted and then the code and the uses

1:05:31and the overall planning be addressed

1:05:34later. as much as it's not something

1:05:36that that you have a vision for this

1:05:39incredible area that has been so shaped

1:05:41by your vision. So that's that is my

1:05:44concern with saying no to this project

1:05:46tonight and I just wanted to put that on

1:05:48the record.

1:05:50>> Commissioner Rogan,

1:05:52>> I I echo the concerns that Commissioner

1:05:55Schlottman has um as as well as

1:05:58Commissioner Taylor. I think you're both

1:05:59right. Um but only one of you can win.

1:06:02Um,

1:06:04and I think that the in in my view, we

1:06:07we have to follow the code and and this

1:06:09is just an SDR. It's it's not a use

1:06:11permit. They have the ability to use

1:06:13this by right. And to allay, I think

1:06:15some of your concerns, Commissioner

1:06:16Schlapman, I think what we're talking

1:06:17about here is a parking lot, right?

1:06:19>> Yes.

1:06:20>> So, there's not much development here.

1:06:21You have one small building that appears

1:06:23to be somewhat like a trailer size, not

1:06:25very large. Is that correct?

1:06:27>> Well, it's certainly not a FEMA trailer.

1:06:29We have taken great pains to ensure that

1:06:32it looks nice. Um, we consider that like

1:06:34an operations building because we have

1:06:36that security personnel on site and so

1:06:38there'll be bathrooms and stuff on in

1:06:40the inside of that building.

1:06:41>> All right. So, I'm I'm not concerned

1:06:44that we're putting any kind of

1:06:45infrastructure here that's going to last

1:06:4750 or 60 years. I think that if uh

1:06:50development increases like I I I hope it

1:06:52would, then this might um become

1:06:55something bigger and greater than a

1:06:57parking lot for for um for electric

1:07:00vehicles. That being said, I just have

1:07:02one concern, um, Miss Lazovich, that if

1:07:05this is for Whimo or Zuks or something

1:07:08like that, I've just seen those videos

1:07:10throughout where they get into, um,

1:07:14these fights with these different, you

1:07:16know, vehicles and then they get stuck

1:07:19and they just start beeping at each

1:07:20other all night long. I would ask that

1:07:23if that is the case that there be some

1:07:25if it is I don't know who your client

1:07:27is. If it is going to be a um autonomous

1:07:30vehicle that there be at city council if

1:07:32it goes this far some kind of review

1:07:34after 6 months or a year of operation to

1:07:36make sure that is not the case. Um I

1:07:39would hate to see this project uh be

1:07:42maligned for that reason. So for that

1:07:45reasons that I've said I agree with

1:07:46Commissioner Taylor. I think this is

1:07:47because this is not a a use permit. This

1:07:49is just an SDR. I I am in support of it.

1:07:52I think that the criteria that we look

1:07:54at under our site development review

1:07:55plans, this is justified and it's

1:07:57reasonable. So, I I I don't have any

1:07:59concerns with the SDR. So, I'll be

1:08:01voting in support of this tonight.

1:08:04>> Yes, Madam Chair. I I'll just make a few

1:08:07other comments. I mean, this is a SDR

1:08:09and I thought about this and I did talk

1:08:10to the city attorneys about this. If

1:08:13there's a park that we don't like in our

1:08:15neighbor in in our city and we don't

1:08:18feel that it's harmonious and compatible

1:08:20in that particular neighborhood, we

1:08:22don't have to approve a park even though

1:08:24it's allowed by by right. I mean, if we

1:08:29don't feel that something's harmonious

1:08:30and compatible, even if it's not a SUP,

1:08:34if it's SDR, we have this ability at

1:08:38this body to vote how we how we would

1:08:40like. So, I'll leave it at that. I'm

1:08:44going to vote the way that I feel. I've

1:08:46been down here since 2005 guiding the

1:08:48goals of the redevelopment agency or the

1:08:51redevelopment area, and I'm not going to

1:08:53roll over for any project if I don't

1:08:55feel that it's harmonious and

1:08:57compatible. If the other planning

1:08:59commissioners feel that it's harmonious

1:09:00and compatible, fine. But,

1:09:02[clears throat]

1:09:03you know how I feel. I'm going to make a

1:09:05motion. We'll see how it goes. And uh

1:09:08and then we'll call for another motion.

1:09:12Madam Chair, on item number 10, based on

1:09:16the testimony tonight, a move for

1:09:18denial.

1:09:31>> Motion fails.

1:09:41agenda item number 10, I'll make a

1:09:42motion for approval subject to staff's

1:09:44conditions

1:09:46into the record.

1:09:47>> And the additional condition read into

1:09:48the record,

1:10:08unless appealed to city clerk in 10

1:10:10days.

1:12:1126-0089

1:12:13B1 applicant owner PAL Mazone for

1:12:16possible action on land use entitlement

1:12:18project request to allow existing

1:12:19residential accessory structures carport

1:12:21structure one and structure 2 and

1:12:23existing patio cover structure 3 and an

1:12:25existing front yard wall fence that do

1:12:27not conform to tile 19.06 6 development

1:12:29standards for setback, separation,

1:12:31aesthetic compatibility, and height at

1:12:33420 Ponchious Circle. Staff, can I

1:12:35please get the report?

1:12:37Madame Chair, this request is associated

1:12:39with the code enforcement case. No

1:12:41evidence of a unique or extraordinary

1:12:43circumstance related to the physical

1:12:44characteristics of the property has been

1:12:46presented to warrant the requested

1:12:48variance. As such, the hardship is

1:12:50self-imposed and therefore staff

1:12:52recommends denial of the request. Thank

1:12:54you.

1:12:54>> Thank you. Please state your name for

1:12:56the record.

1:12:57>> Good evening. Nancy Ammonson, 520 South

1:12:59Fourth Street, representing the

1:13:00applicant on this matter. As was noted,

1:13:03this application is a result of a code

1:13:05enforcement case. The um initial the

1:13:10initial um enforcement had a little more

1:13:12than we're requesting. They had a at one

1:13:17time the gate had covering in it, the

1:13:20corner gate that's too high. They took

1:13:22that out. They've removed the mobile

1:13:24home, but they would like to um be able

1:13:28to keep the carport and the accessory

1:13:31structures. The carport was put in 11

1:13:33years ago when they had some roof

1:13:35damage. The contractor, as sometimes

1:13:39happens, said that they did not need a

1:13:40building permit, but it's been there for

1:13:4211 years. It um

1:13:47the they have a number of sheds or not

1:13:50sheds, I'm sorry. They have a number of

1:13:52um covers. One is in the back is

1:13:55covering the pool equipment. One to the

1:13:58south of the house is p covering

1:14:01some things they have on the side. It's

1:14:03a it's a um it is a just a patio cover.

1:14:07And then to the north there's also

1:14:09another patio cover.

1:14:11We're not sure who was um who

1:14:15complained. However, they have and I'm

1:14:18going to provide these for the record.

1:14:20They have 35 neighbors that have come

1:14:22out and said they have absolutely no

1:14:24issue with any of these um items. This

1:14:28is the property. The neighbors to

1:14:32everybody in the culde-sac plus the

1:14:34neighbors to the south. All the the ones

1:14:36that are most affected have no issue and

1:14:39we have their signatures and we have

1:14:41more than these signatures. But I got to

1:14:43the point where I'm going. We just need

1:14:45to show you that those that are the most

1:14:47affected are not having an issue. As was

1:14:50noted, the um patio cover is in the

1:14:53front yard. I'm sorry. The carport is in

1:14:55the front yard. It is encroaching on the

1:14:58front setback. They do not have a

1:15:00garage. The house was purchased without

1:15:01a garage. They put in the carport

1:15:05without a permit to cover their cars.

1:15:08They're just requesting that you allow

1:15:10what is there to remain. The other point

1:15:14um is the gate. I know that the gate

1:15:17opens out and opens out into the right

1:15:19ofway. We're going to work to make sure

1:15:21that the gate on the corner does not

1:15:23open out into the rightway and we

1:15:24request your approval.

1:15:27>> Thank you. With that, this item has been

1:15:28for public comment. Is there anyone in

1:15:30the audience who would like to speak at

1:15:31this time? Seeing none, I will close

1:15:33public comment. Turn over to members of

1:15:34the commission. Starting with

1:15:35Commissioner Rogan.

1:15:37>> Thank you, Chair. Um and thank you, Miss

1:15:39Anderson, for uh conversing with me on

1:15:41this. I actually have been out to the

1:15:42applicant's home some months ago when um

1:15:46she first was considering applying for

1:15:47this and so I've I've had a firsthand

1:15:49view of this. Um there's a lot that's

1:15:52going on here and some of it I'm okay

1:15:54with and some of some of which I'm not.

1:15:56Um as we have done in the past many

1:15:58times on this planning commission with

1:16:00regard to carports, especially steel

1:16:01carports that are not um aesthetically

1:16:03compatible with the home, we have denied

1:16:06those and I think this is not

1:16:08aesthetically compatible. it's in the

1:16:09front yard set back. Uh it just doesn't

1:16:12work. On occasion, I think in Ward 3,

1:16:14we've approved some where the the entire

1:16:17neighborhood has really just not

1:16:18complied with that and has carports um

1:16:20throughout, but this is not that area. I

1:16:23did drive through it and did not notice

1:16:25many if at all carports um that extended

1:16:29into the front yard. Um likewise I think

1:16:32it is structure number

1:16:35one which is on the south side along

1:16:40Shaunie Avenue is also just not it's not

1:16:44um aesthetically compatible and it

1:16:46should come down. However, I am okay

1:16:48with structure number two and structure

1:16:51number three. I think that those are

1:16:53appropriate. um they're small uh they

1:16:56don't affect they're not really visible

1:16:58from the street and if the neighbors are

1:17:00okay with them then I'm okay with them

1:17:01as well.

1:17:03Those are my comments. If anyone else

1:17:04has any comments, I'd love to hear them.

1:17:08Okay.

1:17:10Seeing that there's no other comments, I

1:17:12would ask staff to amend

1:17:15conditions one through six on uh

1:17:18variance one to read that um on all six

1:17:21of those conditions that a variance is

1:17:23hereby not approved. If you could do

1:17:24that for me, please. And with that

1:17:27amendment, I would make a motion for

1:17:30approval on agenda item 11, project

1:17:3426-0089

1:17:36VR1.

1:17:48Motion carries.

1:17:49>> Thank you.

1:17:50>> And that is final action tonight unless

1:17:52appeal to city clerk in 10 days.

1:17:54>> Thank you. Okay, that brings us to

1:17:55agenda item 12 oayance 26-0219

1:17:58VR1 applicant owner Andrew Schmidt and

1:18:00Anna Bleti for possible action on a land

1:18:03use and entitlement project request to

1:18:04allow an existing residential accessory

1:18:06structure carport that does not conform

1:18:08to title 19.06 development standards for

1:18:10location separation and aesthetic

1:18:12compatibility at 21109 Verdinal Drive.

1:18:15Staff, can I please get the report?

1:18:17>> Madame Chair, this request is also

1:18:19associated with the code enforcement

1:18:21request uh action. No evidence of a

1:18:25unique or extraordinary circumstance

1:18:26related to the physical characteristics

1:18:28of the property has been presented to

1:18:30warrant the requested variance. As such,

1:18:33the hardship is self-imposed and

1:18:35therefore staff recommends denial of the

1:18:37request. Thank you.

1:18:40>> Thank you. And if the applicant is in

1:18:42the audience, would they like to come

1:18:44down and state their name for the

1:18:45record? Seeing no applicant, this item

1:18:48has been noticed for public comments. Is

1:18:50there anyone in the audience who would

1:18:51like to speak on this agenda item at

1:18:53this time? Seeing none, I will close

1:18:55public comment, turn it over to members

1:18:56of the commission, starting with

1:18:57Commissioner Rogan.

1:19:00>> Well, just like the last one, it's the

1:19:02same circumstance with a carport in the

1:19:03front drive. Um, so I I'm not in support

1:19:06of it, and I'm ready to make a motion.

1:19:08>> Please do.

1:19:09>> Um, with regard to agenda item 12,

1:19:11project 26-0219

1:19:14VR1, and make a motion for denial.

1:19:23Motion carries

1:19:24>> and that is final action. Let's spill

1:19:26the city clerk in 10 days.

1:19:28>> Thank you. That brings us to agenda item

1:20:02Staff, can I please get the report?

1:20:04>> Yes, Madam Chair. The subject site

1:20:06fulfills multiple objectives of the city

1:20:08of Las Vegas master plan, including the

1:20:10provision of permanent supportive

1:20:11housing to create alternatives to

1:20:13renting and buying a traditional home

1:20:14for diverse populations, improving

1:20:17access to behavioral health resources,

1:20:18and urban forestry. As such, staff finds

1:20:21the proposed development is compatible

1:20:22and harmonious with the surrounding area

1:20:24and recommends approval of the special

1:20:26use permit and site development plan

1:20:27review subject to conditions. Thank you.

1:20:30>> Thank you. Please state your name for

1:20:31the record.

1:20:31>> Good evening. Jennifer Lazovich, 1980

1:20:33Festival Plaza Drive, here tonight

1:20:35representing Olive Crest. The site is

1:20:38located just on the west side of Rancho.

1:20:40As you can see, uh on this site, there

1:20:42are already existing buildings. The plan

1:20:45would be for Olive Crest to do tenant

1:20:47improvements inside the existing

1:20:49buildings for use as administrative and

1:20:52counseling uh opportunities. And then

1:20:55the new portion of the project in front

1:20:58of you is a 16-unit residential building

1:21:01that sits towards the very very back of

1:21:03the site. The 16-unit residential um

1:21:06facility would be used for participants

1:21:09of the equipped for life independent

1:21:11living program. Um, this gives people an

1:21:14opportunity to transition into living on

1:21:17their own, uh, perhaps with some

1:21:19additional services that help them, uh,

1:21:22transition to that before they, um, move

1:21:24on and other people within that program

1:21:27can move in. We appreciate staff uh,

1:21:30working with us on this and the

1:21:31recommendation of approval, and I'd be

1:21:32happy to answer any questions.

1:21:35>> Thank you. This item has been no for

1:21:36public comment. Is there anyone in the

1:21:38audience who would like to speak at this

1:21:39time? Seeing none, I will close public

1:21:41comment, turn it over to members of the

1:21:43commission, starting with Commissioner

1:21:44Walters.

1:21:48>> Hi. Uh, I I I think that this is a great

1:21:51project. It utilizes an existing

1:21:54building which definitely needs

1:21:55improvements as well as that land for a

1:21:57good public use. And um, it's right

1:22:00[clears throat] down the road for my

1:22:01neighborhood. We're excited to see it.

1:22:03So, I'm ready to make a motion. If

1:22:04nobody has any comments,

1:22:06>> please make a motion. Uh I motion to

1:22:08approve agenda item 13 advance 260262

1:22:13uh with staff conditions. Do you accept

1:22:15staff conditions?

1:22:18>> You agree with staff conditions?

1:22:20>> Yes. Thank you.

1:22:28>> Motion carries.

1:22:31Thank you.

1:23:33>> Uh Simona Stevens, uh 1950 East Warm

1:23:36Springs. um on behalf of the applicant

1:23:39um we have presented this project last

1:23:42month and um there were um some concerns

1:23:46and some questions that we did not have

1:23:48answers at at the time. So um we did had

1:23:50a meeting with the uh with the neighbors

1:23:52right after the right after the meeting

1:23:54last um last time and the um uh Clark

1:23:59County uh real property management um

1:24:01did meet with the neighbors on several

1:24:03other occasions. Uh we also had a

1:24:05meeting with the uh Commissioner

1:24:07Walters. Thank you very much for your

1:24:08time. Um we did talk about um some of

1:24:12the questions that came up and I just

1:24:14kind of wanted to go over over some of

1:24:16the answers that we uh what that we do

1:24:18have. Now uh one of the um there was a

1:24:21concern about uh public access to the to

1:24:24the park and uh we just wanted to make

1:24:26um I guess to to verify or to confirm

1:24:28that this is um not going to be a public

1:24:31access park. Uh the the access is

1:24:33through the through the center and the

1:24:36um the the center open is uh 3 pm to

1:24:398:30. Um

1:24:42and this is mainly for the kids in the

1:24:44program because there is a uh a couple

1:24:46of nonprofit organizations that do run

1:24:49the programs out of there for kids uh

1:24:51also for um let's see summers camp.

1:24:56So yeah, so these are the these are the

1:24:58kids that are going to be using the uh

1:24:59the facility. Um, also another concern

1:25:03was the security and I I was not aware

1:25:06of it but um this there is a security on

1:25:08site 247 because there is a metro

1:25:10substation in on on campus actually. So

1:25:16>> any um Josh Ericson um deputy director

1:25:20of Clark County Department of Real

1:25:21Property Management um we feel like we

1:25:24have met with Commissioner Walters and

1:25:26thank you as well for your time. We did

1:25:28meet with the neighbors. We did even

1:25:29address some additional concerns that

1:25:31were not brought up as part of this

1:25:32project with some existing parking lot

1:25:34lighting and we are working to be good

1:25:37harmonious neighbors. This is not just a

1:25:39general park. There is a controlled

1:25:40access through it through the nonprofits

1:25:43that work out of that center and through

1:25:45uh Commissioner Kurpatre's um office as

1:25:48well. And we feel like the conditions

1:25:50that were given us are are acceptable

1:25:52and request approval.

1:25:56>> Thank you. So with that, um, this item

1:25:58has been nosed for public comment. Is

1:25:59there anyone in the audience who would

1:26:01like to speak at this time?

1:26:04If there are multiple, please line up at

1:26:06the podium and one at a time, please

1:26:08state your name for the record. Thank

1:26:09you.

1:26:16>> Yes. Hello. My name is Karen Buda. BTA

1:26:19is the last name. And I'm here to

1:26:21basically thank the commission for the

1:26:23month that you gave us because it gave

1:26:26us a chance and an opportunity to work

1:26:28with both city and county. We've been

1:26:31collaborating with city and county

1:26:32representatives including Stacy Walters

1:26:35to clarify project details and del

1:26:38deliver viable solutions for both

1:26:40residents in the county.

1:26:42Um, it has been confirmed that this

1:26:45facility is designated exclusively for

1:26:48prek and structured fitness activities,

1:26:50not general public recreational use. We

1:26:53[snorts] focused on sound disturbances,

1:26:55lighting management, priv privacy, and

1:26:58property security.

1:27:01Key measures agreed upon by all parties

1:27:03is the importance of privacy with

1:27:06options under consideration including a

1:27:0810-ft fence or an 8-ft fence paired with

1:27:11a two-foot retaining wall. This height

1:27:14is to prevent things such as loose

1:27:16footballs, baseballs coming over the

1:27:18wall and into the into our property and

1:27:22deterring unauthorized entry onto our

1:27:26property. Additionally, solid sheathing

1:27:29is was a agreed to be installed on the

1:27:32wall to ensure complete visual privacy

1:27:34between the properties. The plan is

1:27:37discussed has all drainage flowing away

1:27:38from our properties towards Brooks.

1:27:41Those drainage plans aren't done yet,

1:27:43but I'm sure they will be in the future.

1:27:46I want to thank you for your time and

1:27:47consideration in these matters, for

1:27:49taking our concerns from our safety and

1:27:52security and for our property values

1:27:54seriously. We look forward to continuing

1:27:57to work with you and achieving our

1:27:59shared goals together.

1:28:03Thank you.

1:28:06>> Hello, my name is Amber Perez. I'm at

1:28:092903 Maverick Street. Um, I was not able

1:28:12to be a part of any of these meetings

1:28:14with our neighbors due to busy schedule,

1:28:17work schedule, children's schedule,

1:28:18things like that. So, some of these

1:28:20things I won't spend as much time on as

1:28:22I originally intended. Um, some of my

1:28:24biggest concerns are with the plans as

1:28:27presented in discrepancy in fencing.

1:28:30There are four different parts of the

1:28:33plan that have discrepancies between

1:28:36using tube steel fencing or raw iron

1:28:38fencing. What I would like to see is I

1:28:40would like to see that be consistent

1:28:42throughout the whole plan so that we can

1:28:44have an idea and there can't be changes

1:28:45made later without any approval or

1:28:49whatever it may be because of the

1:28:50inconsistencies.

1:28:52Um all it sounds as though the solid

1:28:57[clears throat] decorative wall for

1:28:58additional privacy has already been

1:29:00addressed. So I will not go further on

1:29:02that. My biggest concern here is um

1:29:07reducing the space and privacy buffer

1:29:09utilizing landscaping. Um this has

1:29:12apparently already been pre-approved to

1:29:14reduce landscaping. My concern is that

1:29:17um the city of Las Vegas and Clark

1:29:19County have free tree programs as a way

1:29:22to combat urban heat. And I think with

1:29:25this current plan and the field of play

1:29:29being an artificial turf, removing

1:29:31natural plants and um shrubbery reduces

1:29:36or

1:29:37makes it difficult to combat that urban

1:29:40heat effect. This urban heat effect

1:29:42affects those around us. um these

1:29:46neighbors particularly and any other

1:29:48structures that are in uh that will be

1:29:50developed in that area.

1:29:53Um

1:29:55here I've mentioned here just that

1:29:57artificial turf can cause an increase in

1:30:01area heat 40 to 80° above the ambient

1:30:04temperature. This makes it difficult for

1:30:06use during um summer months. It is

1:30:10almost in unusable because of that heat.

1:30:14>> [snorts]

1:30:14>> Um, and so that is ineffective for the

1:30:18community that is going to be using it,

1:30:19that limited community that is going to

1:30:21be using it.

1:30:23My other concern with the proposed field

1:30:26is light pollution. This is currently

1:30:29the back of my house that faces the um

1:30:33the overall

1:30:36current buildings. These are from two

1:30:38flood lights in the parking lot uh

1:30:40parking lot. So, I can walk out of my

1:30:42backyard and I essentially have a fully

1:30:45lit backyard already. This is from

1:30:47inside my house

1:30:50where I am sitting on my couch where I

1:30:51would watch TV. That light comes

1:30:53directly into my face and it is much

1:30:55difficult. I have to draw my blinds to

1:30:58be able to utilize it. When you step

1:31:00outside my house, this is and I I I'm

1:31:04sorry. I will let you go for a couple

1:31:06more seconds, but it is the timer that

1:31:07is beeping. But um also please feel free

1:31:10to submit all your pictures and all your

1:31:11written testimony to a staff person for

1:31:13the record

1:31:14>> that I will

1:31:17um

1:31:18so this is what it looks like when you

1:31:20step out of my house. Very bright lights

1:31:22in my backyard. Um additionally

1:31:25according to these plans the field

1:31:27promote uh proposes 16 pole lights. Just

1:31:31down the street from this is Becker

1:31:33Family Technology Park. It is 3.9 acres

1:31:36with a building, two grass areas, real

1:31:40grass, not artificial turf. Um that has

1:31:4415 pole lights to light up that entire

1:31:483.9 area uh acre area. I do not think 16

1:31:51pole lights for um what is essentially

1:31:54half an acre is necessary.

1:31:58Um I do have questions. Um, sorry, these

1:32:02are out of order now

1:32:03>> and I'm so sorry. I I have given you an

1:32:06extra two minutes and so if you

1:32:07>> okay can

1:32:08>> Well, there's this also has trees in the

1:32:11grass area that natural landscaping

1:32:13needs to be there. I have concerns about

1:32:15ingress and egress

1:32:17um for the undeveloped areas between my

1:32:22house and the current plan.

1:32:25So, I just want to make sure that this

1:32:27area is there are plans in place for

1:32:30traffic flow to this undeveloped area um

1:32:34from these entry and exit points here.

1:32:38No, thank you so much. And like I said,

1:32:40please submit your any pictures or any

1:32:42written testimony that you have to staff

1:32:44for the record as well.

1:32:46>> Thank you so much. And please come down,

1:32:48state your name for the record.

1:32:54Yes. Hi, my name is Justin Perez. Um, I

1:32:56think my biggest concern is is has this

1:32:58been deemed as part this this area has

1:33:02been strru deemed as part of a bigger

1:33:06master plan that it meets those master

1:33:09plan requirements. And I am struggling

1:33:12to find and understand how that is

1:33:14possible when it doesn't actually serve

1:33:17the greater population but a very

1:33:19significantly smaller population that is

1:33:22limited to being able to work out of

1:33:25that uh center. So I don't know how

1:33:30staff found that that was part of the

1:33:322050 master plan but I seriously have

1:33:35concerns over that. So that's mine.

1:33:39>> Thank you so much. Is there anyone else

1:33:40who would like to speak at this time?

1:33:41Please come forward and state your name

1:33:42for the record.

1:33:44>> Hi, is Britney Butuda and um I would

1:33:47just like to state that I personally am

1:33:49very happy that it's the park itself is

1:33:51secluded to only being used by Clark

1:33:54County and by that building and not open

1:33:56to the public because it is right up

1:33:58against our house. So, it being just for

1:34:02Clark County use and just for that one

1:34:03building use is perfect. Thank you.

1:34:07>> Thank you. Thank you. Is there anyone

1:34:08else who would like to speak at this

1:34:09time? Seeing none, I will be closing

1:34:12public comment. I will give the

1:34:13applicant an opportunity to address any

1:34:14of the concerns that were mentioned.

1:34:24Um I guess couple of and um yeah, just I

1:34:28wanted to bring up that it is not open

1:34:30to the public and this is specifically

1:34:32for the facility use. Um the the light

1:34:36fixtures. Um, yeah, those those will be

1:34:38shielded as required by code. Um,

1:34:41they're they're not the high uh

1:34:42fixtures. They're more to light up the

1:34:44path that goes around it. Uh, because

1:34:46there is a there's a trail around it.

1:34:49Um, the the turf um does get hot, but

1:34:53there is a material that is going to be

1:34:55utilized. It's called natural cool. It

1:34:57actually uh reduces the the the

1:34:59temperature of the uh of the n um of the

1:35:02turf. So, actually it's more usable. Um

1:35:06any other

1:35:06>> Yeah, if we could also address the um

1:35:08discrepancy between the steel tube fence

1:35:11and rod iron. Um as far as like

1:35:13architectural and construction, those

1:35:14are almost synonymous terms. Um for us,

1:35:16they're still going to be a steel tube

1:35:18fence. Um but they sometimes are

1:35:20interchangeable on some of the plans and

1:35:22descriptions as well.

1:35:25>> Great. And with that, I will turn over

1:35:27to members of the commission, starting

1:35:28with Commissioner Walters.

1:35:31>> Hi. Um thank you everyone for meeting

1:35:34together. was a really good

1:35:35collaborative process. I'm sorry that we

1:35:38didn't know about the other neighbors.

1:35:39Uh we absolutely would have included

1:35:41you, but I do want to address some of

1:35:43the issues and concerns that were

1:35:45discussed uh amongst the groups and in

1:35:48the in the meetings and I think it'll

1:35:49address many of your concerns as well.

1:35:52Um yes, it is a uh the the fence has

1:35:57changes. So, thank you for clarifying on

1:35:59that and hopefully um you know that that

1:36:02will help you to understand um the

1:36:04differences in the plans. They were

1:36:06developed as we went through uh the last

1:36:08month. It was good to have that amount

1:36:10of time. Uh there are updated plans for

1:36:15um a buffer a landscape buffer area with

1:36:18trees and so that has been incorporated

1:36:21into the design. Um, and that includes

1:36:25trees along uh the p the side the side

1:36:28of the property that neighbors or the

1:36:30sports field in this phase one of this

1:36:32project uh that Yeah, maybe you could

1:36:35point to it. Thank you. Along the uh

1:36:39border with the homeowners.

1:36:42Um, I know that lighting was a major

1:36:44concern and that was something that was

1:36:46discussed as well and so the updated

1:36:49lighting I think and maybe you can

1:36:51clarify even in the parking area.

1:36:54Correct. Was discussed.

1:36:55>> Yes, the update we do have updated

1:36:57lighting in the parking area. Um, the

1:36:59sports field lighting is only going to

1:37:00be used during programmable sports

1:37:02times. Um, we utilize a Musco sports

1:37:05lighting system that is highly directed.

1:37:08Uh, prevents as much light pollution and

1:37:10spillover as possible. We use that at

1:37:12other county parks. And we um after

1:37:14meeting with uh the uh Buda family, the

1:37:17neighbors behind, we actually had our

1:37:19energy department go out and do a light

1:37:21survey of their backyard from the

1:37:23parking lot lighting. And we're working

1:37:25now to uh install shields and to help

1:37:27prevent uh lighting that wasn't even

1:37:29part of this project um to be good

1:37:31neighbors. And I'll be happy to talk to

1:37:33the neighbor that was up here earlier to

1:37:34to see if that's something we can look

1:37:36um and install that lights that might be

1:37:38affecting her her area as well.

1:37:40>> Thank you. I think that would be much

1:37:41appreciated. So, I know all of those uh

1:37:45the lighting for the sports field uh we

1:37:47talked about and you just mentioned are

1:37:49shielded or directed and targeted

1:37:51lighting. And so, um they should not

1:37:53have any spillover. And if they do, then

1:37:56I encourage you um as neighbors to go to

1:37:59that center and to let them know because

1:38:01they have been very flexible and willing

1:38:03to work together with the homeowners

1:38:07that we did involve um to fix some of

1:38:10those issues. And so, um I'd like to see

1:38:13if anyone else has any comments, but I

1:38:15am ready to make a motion.

1:38:16>> Commissioner Rogan.

1:38:19>> Thank you, Chair. Um, first I I I want

1:38:22to say that as an attorney for Clark

1:38:23County, I cannot vote on this matter. I

1:38:25have to abstain um given my commitment

1:38:28in a private capacity to the county as

1:38:29its attorney. However, I can participate

1:38:31and just offer one comment. Josh, I

1:38:33think that the sooner that you can go

1:38:35out and see if you can assist that that

1:38:38commenter to um deal with that lighting,

1:38:41I think would be helpful. It's I've

1:38:44experienced this before. It is extremely

1:38:46annoying to have light shining into your

1:38:48house or into your yard that that's

1:38:50bright. And then just in consideration

1:38:52of this project moving forward, I think

1:38:54that the county has great lighting

1:38:55standards um in its development code.

1:38:58That's far beyond I think what the city

1:39:00has. And so I don't know whe you're

1:39:02looking at what color temperature you're

1:39:04going to be using for that lighting, but

1:39:06um maybe those can be part of the

1:39:07discussion moving forward to make sure

1:39:09that that lighting standard is better

1:39:11than what is offered in the code.

1:39:17Um, actually I had some additional

1:39:19questions about the lighting as well.

1:39:22Um, you mentioned that there's sports

1:39:23field lighting and then there's also

1:39:25path lighting. Um, are those two

1:39:27separate type of lighting fixtures.

1:39:35>> Okay. Uh, yes. So, the uh the the the

1:39:42sports field lighting, there's there's

1:39:44two of them. Um there's going to be one

1:39:46on each end, and one going to be located

1:39:48more towards the uh to light up the

1:39:50field, and the other one's going to be

1:39:52towards the uh parking lot. Uh the the

1:39:55track lighting is going to go basically

1:39:57around um just the where the trail is.

1:40:01And uh none of those lights actually

1:40:02just want to actually bring up, none of

1:40:04those lights are going to be on a photo

1:40:05cell. Uh they're going to be turned

1:40:07manually on and off when when the field

1:40:09is in use only.

1:40:11>> Okay. And is there do you have a height

1:40:13on the path lights? Do you know what the

1:40:15height will be on those poles?

1:40:16>> Maximum 18 ft.

1:40:18>> 18 feet. Okay. Um I just I I'm I'm very

1:40:22concerned for the for the lighting as

1:40:24well. And I'm glad that you've been able

1:40:25to work with the neighbors on it. But

1:40:27maybe there's um you know consider

1:40:30putting in a light that automatically

1:40:31dims when nobody's walking the path. um

1:40:35those have become somewhat popular and

1:40:37so there's no additional light pollution

1:40:39if if no one's walking. Um so I don't

1:40:42know if that's a condition you'd want to

1:40:43accept, but

1:40:46that's really all I have.

1:40:48>> Thank you. Seeing no other comments,

1:40:50Commissioner Walters.

1:40:52>> Yes. Um I would just like to ask that

1:40:54staff also read into the record the

1:40:56added conditions we had for the extra

1:40:59trees and screening to be added to the

1:41:01fence next to the homes. Um

1:41:04>> yes madam chair through you. So staff

1:41:06has a few added conditions to add to

1:41:08item 14260268-

1:43:04medical office clinic development.

1:43:05Staff, can I please get the report?

1:43:08>> Yes, madam chair. The proposed

1:43:09development requires variances that

1:43:11reinforce the unsuitability of the site

1:43:12for the proposed building addition with

1:43:14the surrounding area. As such, staff

1:43:16recommends denial of all requested

1:43:18entitlements subject to conditions if

1:43:20approved. Thank you.

1:43:22>> Thank you. Please state your name for

1:43:23the record.

1:43:25>> Good evening. Laura Drea, 520 South

1:43:27Fourth Street. I'm here on behalf of

1:43:28PBLO PBLO Medical Imaging. Uh I was here

1:43:32before this board two years ago with the

1:43:34same plan which was to allow uh this

1:43:37modular structure

1:43:39attached to the rear of the building. Uh

1:43:42the unit contains a rare 1.5T MRI

1:43:46machine. Uh this model is needed for

1:43:49several things. Uh scanning internal

1:43:51organs, brain scans, cardio analysis,

1:43:54breast scans, and and spinal cords. It

1:43:58is always fully booked. Uh at that time,

1:44:01we requested it to operate for two years

1:44:03as an interim measure while the property

1:44:05owner processed a design review for a

1:44:07new building. That matter was tabled. So

1:44:10now we're requesting that the uh modular

1:44:12unit be able to stay. Uh prior to

1:44:15filing, our firm visited the warrant one

1:44:17office to discuss whether the operation

1:44:19in the last two years presented problems

1:44:22to the neighborhood. And we learned that

1:44:24there weren't any problems reported

1:44:25specific to this site. To my knowledge,

1:44:28there hasn't been any cards filed in

1:44:30opposition of this since it appeared on

1:44:32the August agenda. So with that, we

1:44:34accept all the conditions and ask for

1:44:36your approval.

1:44:38>> Thank you. This item has been for public

1:44:40comment. Is there anyone who would like

1:44:41to speak at this time?

1:44:43Seeing none, I'll be closing public

1:44:45comment. Turning over to members of the

1:44:46commission, starting with Commissioner

1:44:47Rogan. Thank you, Chair. Um I'm in

1:44:50support of this application. It's um

1:44:52been there for the past couple years.

1:44:54I've received no complaints about this

1:44:56as well. I've received no comments. Um

1:44:59this site is at some point going to be

1:45:02developed. The plan fell through last

1:45:04time. Um, so I don't anticipate that

1:45:06even though it is an SCP and it runs

1:45:07with the land that this is going to be

1:45:09here for a long time to come. Um, so if

1:45:12there are no other comments, I'm ready

1:45:13to make a motion.

1:45:15>> Please do.

1:45:16>> Um, with regard to agenda item 15,

1:45:18project 26-0270,

1:45:21uh, make a motion for approval subject

1:45:23to staff's conditions. And M. Drea, you

1:45:27agree to all the staff's conditions?

1:45:29>> Yes. All right. And that's a motion for

1:45:30approval for 15A through 15 C.

1:45:36Motion carries

1:45:38>> and madame chair that item will move

1:45:40forward to city council on November 4th,

1:45:422026. Thank you.

1:45:45>> Thank you. That brings us to agenda item

1:47:11single family residential subdivision

1:47:13amended to 52 lots. And with that staff,

1:47:15can I please get the report?

1:47:18>> Madame Chair, in 2015 the subject site

1:47:21was annexed into the city as part of a

1:47:24larger request and was designated RE

1:47:27residence estates. In 2018, a portion of

1:47:31the overall annexed area was reszoned to

1:47:34RD. However, the entire area was

1:47:37designated as RD in the city's GIS

1:47:41database instead of just the portion.

1:47:44This error has resulted in the applicant

1:47:46being required to submit the resoning

1:47:48associated with this item. Regardless of

1:47:51the error, the subject site is located

1:47:53within planning area A2 of the

1:47:55interlocal agreement which outlines a

1:47:58minimum lot size of 18,000 square ft.

1:48:01Therefore, staff is not able to support

1:48:03the resoning and associated tenative map

1:48:06with propo with proposed lot sizes less

1:48:09than 18,000 square ft. In addition, the

1:48:12applicant is proposing setback variances

1:48:14for the residential homes and not to

1:48:17meet complete street standards which

1:48:19staff is also not able to support.

1:48:22Therefore, staff recommends denial of

1:48:24the related variances 1 through 54 and

1:48:2859. And please note there are blue

1:48:31sheeted plans in your supplemental

1:48:33packet. and the tenative map request is

1:48:36being amended from 56 lots to 52 lots.

1:48:41There is additional documentation of

1:48:43protest that was received after

1:48:44publication. Thank you. [clears throat]

1:48:47>> Thank you. Please state your name for

1:48:48the record.

1:48:49>> Good evening, madam chair,

1:48:50commissioners, my name is Tony Celeste,

1:48:52address 1980 Festival Plaza Drive here

1:48:54on behalf of the applicant PY Homes. As

1:48:57you can see from the aerial, the site is

1:48:59highlighted here in yellow. It is

1:49:01roughly 20 acres uh located on the north

1:49:04side of Anne Road and the east side of

1:49:07the 215 here. The site is uh bisected by

1:49:12Alpine Ridge on the western third and

1:49:14Michelle Crest on the eastern third of

1:49:17the site. Uh this application, you heard

1:49:19a lot of it on September 8th uh last

1:49:22month. Um really it's two main

1:49:24components to this application. First

1:49:26being the zone change, second being the

1:49:28site plan. I am going to just cover high

1:49:31level the zone change. I'm simply

1:49:33incorporate a lot of my statements from

1:49:35that previous hearing um with respect to

1:49:38our reason for the zone change. However,

1:49:40I do want to share a couple of different

1:49:43couple of other uh information with

1:49:45respect to support of the zone change.

1:49:47So, first with respect to the zone

1:49:49change, just as a reminder, here's the

1:49:51site. This is the master plan. It is

1:49:53master plan mixed use. Mixed use allows,

1:49:56as it indicates, a lot of several uses

1:49:58from residential, office, commercial. It

1:50:01includes the ability to do re

1:50:03residential zoning uh north of 10 units

1:50:06to the acre here. So, what we have

1:50:08before you is a conforming zone change.

1:50:10You do not have a general plan

1:50:11amendment. This is a zone change to RD

1:50:14that does conform today to the uh master

1:50:18plan. A master plan that would could

1:50:21allow much greater densities and much

1:50:23greater intensity of uses. Uh second,

1:50:26you heard a lot about a lot of

1:50:28conversation about the interlocal

1:50:29agreement. Here is an overlay of the

1:50:31interlocal agreement. Again, our site is

1:50:33located here highlighted in yellow. What

1:50:36I have marked here in green are half a

1:50:38dozen examples where the city andor the

1:50:41county in the last 10 years have granted

1:50:44allowances to uh the interlocal

1:50:47agreement. Um, as you can see in

1:50:49particular, this western rim right here

1:50:52adjacent to the 215 has been an area

1:50:55where this board and ultimately the city

1:50:58has found that allowance to the

1:51:00interlocal is compatible to the

1:51:03development and the development and the

1:51:04development patterns of the area. more

1:51:07specifically when you blow in blow it up

1:51:09and look at the site again can see our

1:51:12site right here highlighted uh site the

1:51:1520 acres and you can see immediately to

1:51:17the north of us is 30 plus acres that

1:51:19have been zoned RD in particular you see

1:51:22this development right here this was

1:51:25approved in 2018 which include a general

1:51:27plan amendment to go to the low density

1:51:30and the RD zoning designation that is

1:51:33exactly the zoning designation we are

1:51:35seeking Again, these are maximum three

1:51:38units to the acre. Minimum 10,000 square

1:51:40foot lots just as these 30 acres

1:51:43contiguous to us that were approved just

1:51:46on the south side of Anne Road in this

1:51:48area. Another general plan came in in

1:51:502021 that allowed or excuse me in 2018

1:51:54and that allowed not only an RD zoning

1:51:57but R1 zoning which is an even more

1:51:59intense zoning district um as well as

1:52:02with the GPA. You can see all of this

1:52:05here the color is within the city. So

1:52:08you can see with respect to everything

1:52:10on the north side of an road in the city

1:52:12is either in this blue color which is

1:52:14the RD zoning or the yellow which is R1

1:52:19which is again a more intense zoning

1:52:21district and allows for a greater

1:52:23intensity. So for those reasons, we do

1:52:25believe it is compatible with the

1:52:27surrounding area and certainly in line

1:52:30with the prior exceptions that have been

1:52:32made by the city. Uh with respect to our

1:52:36design, this was the original design

1:52:39that we showed you on September 8th. We

1:52:42did have a neighborhood meeting to

1:52:43discuss this plan. Um as a reminder, we

1:52:47were showing Michelle Crest being

1:52:50vacated right in this area. Um, based on

1:52:54feedback at the planning commission on

1:52:56September 8th and listening to

1:52:58neighbors, we have subsequently amended

1:53:00that plan. And if I can't, I don't know

1:53:01if there's an ability to zoom out a

1:53:04little bit so I can show you more

1:53:06specifically where so you can see both

1:53:08there. Thank you very much. So you can

1:53:10see right here on the right hand side is

1:53:12now the revised plan. This is the plan

1:53:14we shared at the neighborhood meeting on

1:53:16September 30th. And you what you can see

1:53:18we've done is now uh showing the full

1:53:22dedication of Michelle Crest in this

1:53:24area. So the site will now be bisected

1:53:27in thirds. It'll have on the western

1:53:29edge still the original 12 lot

1:53:31culde-sac. Then in the middle between

1:53:34Alpine Ridge and Michelle Crest will be

1:53:3827 uh homes. And then on the east side

1:53:41of Michelle Crest, a additional 13 lot

1:53:46culde-sac that will funnel out to uh

1:53:49Lancha. We have created um as well we

1:53:52heard comments at the planning

1:53:53commission about the traffic flowing out

1:53:56onto Alpine Ridge. We have subsequently

1:53:59uh turned this into a U-shaped design

1:54:02with two entrance points that are

1:54:04funneling out to Michelle Crest, which

1:54:05will now be fully improved. Uh this

1:54:08helps a couple things. is one, it does

1:54:09address some of the traffic concerns

1:54:11that were uh discussed at Alpine Ridge.

1:54:14But number two, um as you recall, we

1:54:17have a waiver. It was it's waiver uh

1:54:20variant or excuse me, variance 59 is

1:54:23with respect to a wall height waiver

1:54:25along our east property line. With this

1:54:28new design review, I can now uh withdraw

1:54:31that variance 59 because the way this

1:54:34will now work is that as you know,

1:54:36working west to east, there's

1:54:37substantial fall and it falls pretty

1:54:39quickly um over the site. So now we're

1:54:42able to design this site to the contours

1:54:45of the natural flow of the site. This on

1:54:48the left, the previous design we had to

1:54:50build up and basically fight gravity and

1:54:52have everything flow back to Alpine

1:54:55Ridge or up to Lancha in this area via

1:54:58via this drainage easement here. Today,

1:55:01with this redesign, everything can flow

1:55:03in its natural state and um be collected

1:55:07along Michelle Crest. And so, because of

1:55:09that, we no longer will need that

1:55:11variance 59, which is the increased wall

1:55:14height in this area. Um, additionally,

1:55:17we agreed to restrict uh the

1:55:21uh this is this is originally a this is

1:55:24a one and twotory development. We have

1:55:26agreed to restrictions of where

1:55:28one-story homes will be. Um, and we're

1:55:31essentially set another way where we

1:55:33will not have twotory homes. everything

1:55:35asterric here which is essentially along

1:55:37our western, northern and eastern

1:55:41property line with the asterric means we

1:55:43will do one-story homes only. Um we have

1:55:46committed to that and I have shared this

1:55:48with the neighbors that this will be

1:55:49one-story homes only. Um, we have also

1:55:54on Michel Crest here, we originally

1:55:56designed it to be uh basically rural

1:55:59standards, meaning we weren't going to

1:56:01provide curb gutter or those type curb

1:56:03gutter sidewalks, those type of

1:56:05improvements. However, we have decided

1:56:07that uh because of the traffic that will

1:56:10be there and the utilization that we

1:56:11heard of the traffic between an road up

1:56:14to Centennial uh Parkway to access the

1:56:18high school that we are going to do our

1:56:19full off-site improvements on Michel

1:56:21Crest like we are doing on Alpine Ridge,

1:56:24which will be curb, gutter, and uh

1:56:26sidewalks. Um the only thing we're not

1:56:29asking for or I guess the the variance

1:56:31that would survive is through not to

1:56:33provide uh street lights on both Michel

1:56:36Crest and Alpine Ridge. With respect to

1:56:39Lancha, we are still showing that rural.

1:56:41We are committed to doing a um deo

1:56:45decomposed granite walkway along Lancha

1:56:48Avenue. Um, of course, if this board

1:56:52feels otherwise that our southern half

1:56:54of Lancha should also be improved with

1:56:56curb gutter sidewalk, we are amanable to

1:56:59that change. But as of now, we are

1:57:00showing Michelle Crest are requesting

1:57:03that Michelle Crest have that revision

1:57:05and be uh fully improved minus the

1:57:08street lights. Um so with that we

1:57:11believe we addressed uh a lot of the

1:57:14conditions and considerations and

1:57:16requests that we heard um on September

1:57:198th. We do agree to all the if approved

1:57:22conditions. I do know that um with

1:57:25respect to I think it's uh variance one

1:57:28condition seven there will have to be

1:57:30revised based on the um fact that we

1:57:34will do off-site improvements along

1:57:35Michelle Crest there and we can accept

1:57:38that revision with that I am more than

1:57:40happy to answer any questions you may

1:57:42have.

1:57:43>> Thank you so much. This item has been

1:57:45for public comment at this time. Is

1:57:46there anyone who would like to speak at

1:57:47this time? Please line up and state your

1:58:04you.

1:58:07>> My name is Joe O'Hill. I've lived in

1:58:09northwest Las Vegas for last since 1985

1:58:13in this area that Mr. Celeste is talking

1:58:15about. I was at the last uh meeting, the

1:58:18residential meeting. We were asking that

1:58:20the properties that he's, you know,

1:58:22looking at building on with PY border

1:58:24the RNP.

1:58:26This those have historically always been

1:58:28halfacre lots. Mr. Celeste has somewhat

1:58:31selective memory that at that meeting

1:58:34the issue wasn't uh changing

1:58:36landscaping, making one stories on the

1:58:38borders. The issue was keeping it two

1:58:40houses per acre, not 2.8, not 2.5, two.

1:58:46That was the biggest issue that was

1:58:47addressed at that meeting. and he would

1:58:49have no argument or fight from the

1:58:50neighbors that they would just keep the

1:58:52two acre or I'm sorry, two houses per

1:58:54acre.

1:58:55That's it. Thank you.

1:58:58>> Also, you're also welcome to line up

1:59:00three at a time. Uh just in the interest

1:59:02of making sure we can get flow. Um but

1:59:04please state your name for the record.

1:59:05>> Uh David Carowwak, 5891 Michel. Uh I

1:59:09live about four houses down from this

1:59:12and we move to the area because it's

1:59:15rural halfacre lots and I request that

1:59:19you adhere to the Northwest interlocal

1:59:23agreement and enforce that and keep it

1:59:26at halfacre lots.

1:59:29Thanks.

1:59:30>> Thank you. And like I said, three of you

1:59:32at a time can line up at the mics if

1:59:34you'd like. Please state your name for

1:59:35the record. Yes, my name is Michael Dele

1:59:38from Dil offices. I wanted to put a few

1:59:40items into the record which I have

1:59:42copies for the clerk. Thank you, chair.

1:59:45First item is

1:59:47exhibit A, the annexation ordinance

1:59:50passed by the city of Las Vegas under

1:59:52bill number 201564

1:59:54and approved under ordinance 6458 on

1:59:56September 2nd, 2015.

2:00:00of that have exerted page four which is

2:00:03the exhibit A2 section seven of the

2:00:06approved ordinance. The land was

2:00:08classified as RE by the city of Las

2:00:10Vegas and was quote deemed by the city

2:00:12equivalent of the Clark County

2:00:14classification

2:00:15under the generally equivalent land use

2:00:17codes. This classification generally

2:00:19restricts the development the parcel to

2:00:21two residential units per acre or less.

2:00:27This is the

2:00:29tree that shows the history of the

2:00:31development there for the parcels

2:00:32previous

2:00:34>> sorry

2:00:36thank you

2:00:38the 52.47 47 acre parent parcel as well

2:00:40as the subsequent child parcels

2:00:42including the subject parcel that's part

2:00:44of today's application.

2:00:48to the B1.

2:00:50This is the Department of Planning

2:00:52application Z72848

2:00:55which references the limited approval of

2:00:57the zone change from RE to RD to

2:00:59approximately 10.34 acres of the 52 acre

2:01:03parent parcel with the remainder of that

2:01:05parcel remaining RE

2:01:10B2.

2:01:12This exhibit is from GCW engineering is

2:01:15correspondence with the same limited

2:01:17approval. GCW is the same firm which

2:01:19created and submitted the current parcel

2:01:21map for the 19.14 acre rezoned

2:01:24application under consideration. Now

2:01:26this correspondence expressly

2:01:28acknowledges rezoning is to remain in

2:01:31the adjacent parcel areas including

2:01:33today's subject parcel.

2:01:36Seen this map here previously. It's a

2:01:39little bit zoomed in. B3.

2:01:42This is a map depicting the areas of all

2:01:44parcels prior to the application of the

2:01:46current application represents the

2:01:48boundary of the former 52 acre parcel is

2:01:51now part of the 19 acres.

2:01:54C1,

2:01:55this is the interlocal agreement between

2:01:57the city of Las Vegas and Clark County,

2:01:59which is still in effect and has not

2:02:01been removed by the county.

2:02:07>> I'll submit these for the record. Thank

2:02:08you.

2:02:08>> Thank you. Please state your name for

2:02:11the record.

2:02:12>> I'm going to shift mics. Thank you.

2:02:14Thank you, chairwoman. I am Bridget

2:02:17Salvi and I represent a large number of

2:02:21properties as the Northwest Rural

2:02:23Preservation Association current

2:02:25president. Uh this is a map I borrowed

2:02:28from Tony. This is the subject site.

2:02:33uh just a couple of points that he made

2:02:35that these parcels here in blue and in

2:02:38yellow and in yellow. It's important to

2:02:42remember proximity to the 215

2:02:45and this is the 215. So by proximity

2:02:49it's a logical uh allowance to have this

2:02:52increased density so close. These

2:02:54parcels in green were [snorts] developed

2:02:57at halfacre lots and are compliant. Um,

2:03:00so it's kind of a no-brainer to say that

2:03:04this shouldn't all be as an RD request.

2:03:10Um, the parcels to the north were RD in

2:03:132015, 2018 or 2018 actually 17 and 16

2:03:18and he's got the dates in here.

2:03:21But the interlocal agreement still

2:03:23protects this parcel to be halfacre

2:03:26lots. To just give it away even though

2:03:29there was a clerical error that was just

2:03:32recently discovered is really no excuse

2:03:34to just say jump the density. the fact

2:03:36that the the general plan shows a land

2:03:40use of mixed, I would posit that that

2:03:43general plan was drafted with inaccurate

2:03:46information because it still had the RD

2:03:51as the zoning on that parcel when the

2:03:54general plan was updated for this area.

2:03:56So there's layers of issue of concern

2:04:01where the density and what could

2:04:03possibly be as a wish list for this

2:04:05parcel are in question. Um, I would

2:04:08request that this planning commission

2:04:11deny the application on its face because

2:04:14the interlocal agreement protects it at

2:04:16no greater than 18,000 square ft or no

2:04:18less than 18,000 square ft on the lots

2:04:22and also to disregard the fact that

2:04:25these parcels over here since they have

2:04:28a higher density, this one so qualifies.

2:04:30It does not. Please commissioners deny

2:04:34this application.

2:04:40Hi, my name is Mike Rivy. I reside at

2:04:4210325 West Regina Avenue and my east

2:04:46side of my property. Um, that's

2:04:48[clears throat] where Machelli Crest

2:04:49runs.

2:04:51Um, I'm so sorry the developer made a

2:04:53mistake. They when they bid on this

2:04:55property thinking it was RD, but it's

2:04:58RE. But I don't want to get into the

2:05:00weeds on it. This is a matter for them

2:05:03to take care of. Probably a legal

2:05:05matter. It's not to be remedied here by

2:05:07giving them a zoning density change. I

2:05:10call this matter a wart and they have to

2:05:12deal with this wart, not us. And I would

2:05:15recommend the city do audit of their

2:05:17maps so that there's no other instances

2:05:19like this. So, back to business. I'm

2:05:22against the zoning requests for higher

2:05:24density. I have yet to hear good reason

2:05:26for it. What are the negatives with the

2:05:28property that warrant a zoning change?

2:05:30I've been to the property. One can see

2:05:33Lone Mountain, Sleeping Indian Mountain,

2:05:35Gas Peak, and even Frenchman Mountain.

2:05:36The ground is level, uh, and it's on a

2:05:39normal southeastward slope, and there's

2:05:41no gullies or steep drop off. It's good

2:05:44to build on. So, okay, let's go the

2:05:47other way. What's are the positives

2:05:49connected to the property that warrant a

2:05:51zoning change? Is the developer going to

2:05:53donate land for a nearby park? What are

2:05:56they doing to sweeten this deal? I'm not

2:05:58aware of any. Let's keep the rural

2:06:01character of the neighborhood by

2:06:02maintaining the current density zoning.

2:06:04Please deny this request. Thanks and

2:06:07ignore that wart.

2:06:13>> Good evening. My name is Eugene Nelson.

2:06:15I live at 10280 West Lancha. Uh just

2:06:18across the street from this um

2:06:20development that's going in here. Um, I

2:06:22wanted to echo my neighbor's concerns

2:06:23about the increased density that's uh

2:06:25not conforming with the surrounding

2:06:27neighborhood. I also wanted to say I

2:06:29know that we mentioned earlier I heard a

2:06:31commissioner mention that uh light

2:06:32shining into [clears throat] people's

2:06:33homes at night is an issue and my front

2:06:35door is right in front of this

2:06:37neighborhood exit. Uh that's not just

2:06:39traffic from the neighbors but also

2:06:41delivery traffic at night, late night

2:06:43Door Dash orders, things like that. Um

2:06:45shutting directly into my front door.

2:06:47Um, I also wanted to say I don't believe

2:06:50that Michelle Crest should have uh this

2:06:53much traffic flowing through to it. It

2:06:55does connect all the way to Centennial,

2:06:57but it um it's a smaller street,

2:07:00narrower, lower capacity compared to

2:07:02Alpine Ridge. And while Alpine Ridge

2:07:04does have a sawtooth pattern, it is open

2:07:06for future development to remedy that.

2:07:08Um, additionally, there are many uh

2:07:10multiple homes along Michelle that do

2:07:13face the street. Uh whereas Alpine Ridge

2:07:15I believe has one home that directly

2:07:17faces the street and that's traffic

2:07:19going right in front of people's homes.

2:07:21Um

2:07:22thank you very much. I urge the

2:07:24commission to follow staff's uh

2:07:26recommendation for denial. Thank you.

2:07:29>> Good evening. My name is Pama and we

2:07:31have owned our uh property up there

2:07:33since the early 90s and built our home

2:07:36there and raised our family there. I

2:07:38think again like everyone has echoed

2:07:39because somebody along the way made a

2:07:41clerical error that it this should not

2:07:44be shoved down our throats and we should

2:07:45not have to pay the price for it. PY has

2:07:48bought many properties from the BLM. I'm

2:07:51sure they have their highriced lawyers

2:07:53here. They should look over every fine

2:07:55detail before they sign and they bid on

2:07:57it. I think now they're just trying to

2:07:59throw everything at the wall and see

2:08:00what will stick. I don't know what

2:08:03meeting uh Mr. Celeste is talking about.

2:08:06All of us at the meeting did not agree

2:08:08to anything we wanted stuck to the two

2:08:10lots. Um, most of our questions we asked

2:08:14were never answered. He just went on to

2:08:16the next question. Also, I relive right

2:08:19off of Michelle Crest. That is the most

2:08:21rural street still left over there. So

2:08:24to have 27 of the houses dump onto

2:08:28Michelle Crest is just ridiculous.

2:08:31Alpine Ridge is more of a city street

2:08:33and it's fully de developed to handle

2:08:35more traffic. But either way, this

2:08:37should be night be denied because we

2:08:38should not have to pay the price for a

2:08:40clerical error. Thank you.

2:08:44>> Hello, my name is Reagan Stokes and I

2:08:46live at 60 85 Egan. Um, somebody

2:08:50[clears throat] really really smart once

2:08:52coined the phrase two wrongs don't make

2:08:54a right. And that really I feel is

2:08:56what's at play here. At the recent

2:08:59neighborhood meeting, we asked would PY

2:09:02have bid on this lot if the zoning had

2:09:05been accurately displayed at the time

2:09:08and it was not at that amount. Right? So

2:09:12what is happening is them trying to

2:09:14justify their purchase by making us take

2:09:17the consequences of that mistake instead

2:09:19of dealing with it. We asked if they

2:09:22were taking any action or pursuing any

2:09:25other remedies besides trying to reason

2:09:27and the answer was not at this time. So

2:09:29again, we're being asked to deal with

2:09:31the consequences of the mistakes of

2:09:34others and I think you know getting too

2:09:36far into item 17 is like trying to get

2:09:39to sentencing before the verdict is

2:09:41done. So I'm going to ask that you deny

2:09:43all of it. Thank you.

2:09:46>> Thank you. And with that I will Is there

2:09:48anyone else who would like to give

2:09:49comment? Seeing none, I will close

2:09:53public comment and I'll invite the

2:09:55applicant to come back and address any

2:09:57of the concerns.

2:10:10>> Uh thank you, Madame Chair. Uh ju just a

2:10:14couple things. One with respect to the

2:10:16street network and traffic. Um

2:10:20little bit of history. We initially had

2:10:22all right ofways being fully dedicated

2:10:25and going in. Uh a handful of neighbors

2:10:28reached out to us and asked if there was

2:10:31any way we could vacate and abandon

2:10:34Lancha Avenue and Michel Crest and

2:10:37trying to be good corporate citizens and

2:10:39work with the neighbors. We ran through

2:10:41those traps and actually did submit uh

2:10:45some requests again to Clark County

2:10:48because on the north side of Lancha is

2:10:51Clark County and Michel Crest way is is

2:10:54technically not a ride ofway. It is

2:10:56right now a grant of easement in favor

2:10:58of Clark County. And so in order to

2:11:01remove those from the street network, we

2:11:03actually needed Clark County's

2:11:05concurrence. And so we went through that

2:11:07and um essentially

2:11:10Lancha was met with no there is not

2:11:13going to be support from Clark County to

2:11:15do Lancha. We then proceeded with trying

2:11:18to do Michelle Crest but hearing

2:11:20responses uh at the September 8th or you

2:11:23know comments at September 8th hearing

2:11:25about traffic um it was clear to us that

2:11:28that was the direction that this board

2:11:30wanted us to go was put in Michelle

2:11:33Crest. So, we are back to almost where

2:11:35we started with dedicating all of the

2:11:38rightways around this. Um, with respect

2:11:40to the traffic flow on Michel Crest,

2:11:43there are multiple homes, culde-sacs

2:11:45that utilize the streets, so ours would

2:11:48not be much different. But we did try to

2:11:50work and resolve that issue, but that is

2:11:53an issue that unfortunately cannot be

2:11:55resolved. Um, the ride ofways need to go

2:11:58in for the traffic circulation, and

2:12:00that's what we are proposing. Thank you.

2:12:06Thank you. At this time, um so this is

2:12:09this is a difficult this is a difficult

2:12:10item. Um both of these and with that I

2:12:14will just say a couple of things. One is

2:12:18the last plan that was shown at the

2:12:19previous meeting did give me heartburn

2:12:21in particular. I know there is the

2:12:23density component, but what really gave

2:12:25me heartburn was the closure of Michel

2:12:27Crest. And I just thought that closing

2:12:29off that artery um was difficult to get

2:12:33behind. And so I do appreciate as well

2:12:34the elimination of four homes. I know

2:12:36it's not what the neighbors would want,

2:12:38but 56 to 52 as well as reopening Michel

2:12:43Crest I that for me was one of my main

2:12:46concerns. Um the off-site improvements I

2:12:49do support as well. um we saw with the

2:12:51previous storm and it's something that

2:12:52we've run into a lot is we have people

2:12:54come forward, we allow there to not be

2:12:56off-site improvements and then there's

2:12:58flooding issues um that we then have to

2:13:00address later on in the in the process.

2:13:03So with that, I know fundamentally there

2:13:06will be disagreements over the density.

2:13:09Um, I know that from my perspective and

2:13:12from the city's perspective, especially

2:13:14as we look at our 2050 master plan, I do

2:13:17believe that it is compatible,

2:13:18especially with this proximity to Ann

2:13:20and 215. Um, but I do welcome comments

2:13:24from the rest of the commission at this

2:13:26time. Commissioner Taylor.

2:13:27>> Uh, thank you, Chair. Um, Mr. Celeste,

2:13:30thank you for all the work you did from

2:13:32September to October. I know that this

2:13:35is still a project more dense than this

2:13:38neighborhood would like. Um on Lancha,

2:13:43um are you doing any buffering

2:13:45landscaping to address say the concern

2:13:48of of the gentleman who said that that

2:13:51uh street exiting out would be right at

2:13:54his front door essentially?

2:13:56>> Yes, we are complying with the

2:13:58landscaping requirements that would be

2:14:00required along Lancha. You can see from

2:14:02our landscape plan right here, the

2:14:04landscaping would be on either side of

2:14:06those entrances. And um I did fail to uh

2:14:10mention that we would also uh comply

2:14:13with the more enhanced landscaping

2:14:16requirement on the perimeter which be

2:14:18which would basically say for perimeter

2:14:20landscaping the applicant to provide

2:14:22fast growing large shade trees with a

2:14:25minimum 3-in trunk caliber measured 6 in

2:14:28from the base of the trunk in accordance

2:14:30with the southern Nevada regional plant

2:14:32list. The use of pine and palm trees

2:14:34shall be prohibited. So we would um ask

2:14:37that that condition be incorporated on

2:14:39the perimeter and that would certainly

2:14:40help as well enhance the landscaping

2:14:43that we're proposing.

2:14:44>> Okay. Thank you. And that is perimeter

2:14:46at Lancha as well. Yeah,

2:14:47>> that is that includes Lancha as well.

2:14:49Thank you.

2:14:50>> Okay. Um yeah, again I I know that this

2:14:52is tough because of the area and then

2:14:54our local, but I do really appreciate

2:14:56everything that you took into

2:14:57consideration between September and now.

2:14:59So thank you.

2:15:07Hi. Uh, I also want to thank you for the

2:15:09amount of work done and retaining the

2:15:12Michel um Michelle Crest. Um, I just

2:15:15want some clarification on Michel Crust

2:15:19and um Alpine Way. You do plan to put in

2:15:22the curb, gutter, and sidewalk, but not

2:15:25the street lights.

2:15:27>> Correct. Right. We mo in this area

2:15:30there's

2:15:31heard that preservation of the night

2:15:33night sky. Um so there is I believe a

2:15:36condition that basically restrictive

2:15:38covenant that we'll have the

2:15:40infrastructure there for uh the street

2:15:43lights. Um and at such time if there

2:15:46does come a time that the city wants

2:15:48street lights that infrastructure is

2:15:49installed. So that that is we're asking

2:15:52to essentially defer that. Um, again,

2:15:55we're flexible on that, but that we're

2:15:57just trying to address some of the

2:15:58concerns we've heard from the neighbors.

2:16:01>> Yeah. Um, I mean, and on La Mancha,

2:16:04Lancha, Lancha, uh, you suggested the

2:16:08decomposed granite, but, uh, are open to

2:16:11also putting the curb, gutter, and

2:16:13sidewalk there as well.

2:16:14>> That is correct.

2:16:15>> Um, I know that I would appreciate that.

2:16:18I'm not sure uh how other fellow

2:16:21commissioners

2:16:22>> if you're willing to do that. I would

2:16:24support off-site improvements um

2:16:27specifically the sidewalk curb and

2:16:28gutter just for the affformentioned

2:16:30flood control issues.

2:16:32>> We can agree to that.

2:16:33>> Um madam chair just one other

2:16:35clarification if I may. Um so on the

2:16:38street lights you are going to install

2:16:40the infrastructure essentially and then

2:16:42are you also paying into the

2:16:43administrative deferral for

2:16:46uh installing street lights at some

2:16:47subsequent time if needed?

2:16:49>> Yeah, I I believe there's a condition

2:16:51where there's a percentage that's worked

2:16:53out. I might defer to public works on

2:16:54the specific language, but we do agree

2:16:57to that language which is like a 50% um

2:17:00requirement from us, but the answer the

2:17:02short answer is yes. But details I know

2:17:04public works has and we we agree to

2:17:06that.

2:17:07>> Thank you,

2:17:09>> Madam Chair.

2:17:10>> Commissioner Slotman.

2:17:11>> Yes. Question for public works. Um

2:17:14there's a way where they the developer

2:17:15can uh contribute the street lights

2:17:19directly to the city of Las Vegas in lie

2:17:22of just giving a 50% of whatever that

2:17:25that cost is. Is that correct?

2:17:27>> Uh through you madam chair Omar was

2:17:30signing public works. Yes. If they

2:17:32contribute 100% for the street light

2:17:35improvements um and uh wish to do the

2:17:39rest the remainder of the improvements

2:17:41then we would be able to change that

2:17:44update the the text on this to read 100%

2:17:47as opposed to 50%. And also be able to

2:17:50strike uh condition number eight for

2:17:53variance one.

2:17:54>> Thank you. That's the only way that I'd

2:17:55support this item tonight.

2:17:58>> Noted Commissioner Rogan.

2:18:01Not a comment. Another abstension. Since

2:18:03I'm an attorney for Clark County and

2:18:05this uh project falls within the terms

2:18:08of the Northwest interlocal agreement

2:18:09between the city and the county, I

2:18:12cannot vote on this matter. So, I'll be

2:18:14standing on item 16 and 17.

2:18:17>> Thank you. And to the applicant, I would

2:18:20ask that per Commissioner Shman, I do

2:18:22agree that sometimes we find that even

2:18:23with the 50% that's at the current

2:18:25market rate, many years down the line,

2:18:28obviously we've seen inflation and labor

2:18:29costs that usually the city still has to

2:18:31eat a lot of the cost um that is

2:18:35unanticipated, right, for future. So, if

2:18:36we're able to acquire um the street

2:18:39lights and store them or however the

2:18:41previous

2:18:43um previous process was and I might

2:18:46defer to staff to craft that amendment

2:18:51>> and uh the the answer is yes, we can

2:18:53agree to as Mr. uh as Commissioner

2:18:56Schlotman had explained about the 100%.

2:18:58But certainly willing to listen to

2:19:00planning's condition.

2:19:02>> Thank you. Um, Miss Edos, do you think

2:19:04you'd be able to craft that?

2:19:08>> Uh, Madame [clears throat] Chair,

2:19:09through you, yes, I do have conditions

2:19:11and then I will allow the public works

2:19:14team to address the public works

2:19:17conditions. So, um, from what I

2:19:20understand on the planning side, we are

2:19:23going to strike variance number 59.

2:19:27>> Yes, please.

2:19:27>> Okay. So variance 59 is hereby stricken.

2:19:32We are going to amend

2:19:35conditions [clears throat]

2:19:36uh condition number one of variance one

2:19:41uh planning had a condition on there

2:19:42that addressed the offsite. So we will

2:19:45amend that to read a variance of title

2:19:4819.02 2 is hereby denied to allow no

2:19:52off-site improvements on Lancha Avenue

2:19:56and Alpine Ridge Way where such are

2:19:58required. The underground infrastructure

2:20:00for street lighting including a power

2:20:02source shall be provided at the Lancha

2:20:05Avenue, Alpine Ridgeway and the Michelle

2:20:09Crest way Lancha Avenue intersections.

2:20:13And then I understand uh condition

2:20:16number eight of variance one is also to

2:20:20be stricken from the record.

2:20:24And then we are going to add conditions

2:20:28to the uh 26-0293

2:20:33TMP1.

2:20:35Uh that first condition added um as Mr.

2:20:38Celeste indicated earlier will read for

2:20:40perimeter landscaping. The applicant

2:20:43shall provide fast growing large shade

2:20:45trees with a minimum 3-in trunk caliper

2:20:48measured 6 in from the base of the trunk

2:20:51in accordance with the Southern Nevada

2:20:53regional plant list. The use of pine and

2:20:56palm trees shall be prohibited. And the

2:20:59second condition added to the tenative

2:21:01map will read, "Lot numbers 1 through

2:21:04six, 12, 13- 19, 40, and 46 through 52

2:21:11shall contain singlestory homes.

2:21:14Twostory homes on these lots are

2:21:17prohibited." And then I will turn it

2:21:19over to public works to make their

2:21:21amendments.

2:21:32Okay. Uh three you madam chair. Uh I

2:21:36would like to amend uh condition number

2:21:39seven

2:21:40um for variance one to read.

2:21:46Ridgeway, Michel Crest Way, and Lancha

2:21:52lighting, including a power source,

2:21:54shall be provided at the at the Lancha

2:21:57Avenue and Alpine Ridgeway and the

2:22:13bond estimate costs for all deferred

2:22:16improvements on Pine Ridge Way, Lamonta

2:22:18Avenue, and Michelle Crest Way based on

2:22:20the urban standards. The deferral fee

2:22:34also like to uh strike condition number

2:22:37eight

2:22:38from variance one.

2:22:45>> Thank you. And you agree to all those

2:22:46conditions?

2:22:47>> We understand and agree all of to all of

2:22:48the conditions.

2:22:50>> Okay. Thank you. And with

2:22:53unless there are any other comments from

2:22:54any other member of the commission.

2:22:57Seeing none at this time, then I am

2:22:59ready to make a motion. Um, I will be

2:23:01making a motion to approve agenda item

2:25:52>> That brings us to agenda item 18,

2:25:54obeyance 26-03121,

2:25:57applicant owner Yousef Limited LLC for

2:25:59possible action on a land use

2:26:00entitlement project request for proposed

2:26:02motor vehicle sales used with a waiver

2:26:04of the minimum site area requirement at

2:26:061961 East Charleston Boulevard. staff,

2:26:09can I please get the report?

2:26:17>> Sorry, Madame Chair. Um, the subject

2:26:19site is within the founders district and

2:26:22redevelopment plan area too with the

2:26:24goals of providing a historic

2:26:25neighborhood augmented with transit

2:26:28oriented mixed use that reflects a high

2:26:30level of concern for architectural

2:26:32landscape urban design and land use

2:26:35principles. The proposed motor vehicle

2:26:38sales used use does not support these

2:26:41goals by utilizing a potential

2:26:43redevelopment site for an auto

2:26:46automobile oriented use and staff is

2:26:48recommending denial of the requested

2:26:50special use permit. Thank you.

2:26:53>> Please state your name for the record.

2:26:55>> Good evening. My name is Andrew Ysef. I

2:26:57am the property owner of this project

2:26:59and the applicant. Um, so we had a

2:27:03meeting with uh Mr. Schlottman here not

2:27:06too long ago and we had uh areas of

2:27:08concern as far as uh not meeting require

2:27:12or not requirements but uh goals of the

2:27:15lo city of Las Vegas master plan. I

2:27:19would like to say that uh we are looking

2:27:21to develop further into a mixeduse

2:27:25property

2:27:27as we get started with kind of the

2:27:29fundamentals of uh of this project in

2:27:31the beginning. And I'm going to go ahead

2:27:32and show you how it looks today on the

2:27:36Yep, there we go. Let me move this over.

2:27:39So, this is how it looks today. It's

2:27:40It's really rough. Um I'm sure all of

2:27:43you guys are familiar with the area down

2:27:46in this se in this section. I used to be

2:27:48in the retail tobacco industry. Sorry.

2:27:52Uh I used to be in the retail tobacco

2:27:54industry. You can kind of see it like

2:27:55slightly to the right. I grew up in this

2:27:57area. My father used to own this car

2:27:59wash and I I've always dreamed to

2:28:04develop it, make it nice, uh just do do

2:28:07really well for, you know, just the

2:28:10feelood of it. Um but um car wash simply

2:28:14doesn't work here. I I've talked to uh

2:28:17major developers for car wash uh

2:28:20especially what with what car washes are

2:28:22doing nowadays uh with the express

2:28:25washes and they need minimum an acre of

2:28:27a of a lot and that disrupts everybody's

2:28:29businesses that have been there for

2:28:31almost 20 years and that retail smoke

2:28:34shop that I used to own has been there

2:28:36for six years and it's uh it's been

2:28:38successful and it was a staple in the

2:28:40neighborhood and I would like to show

2:28:42you guys

2:28:44what it's going to be looking like as if

2:28:46and when we get approved for uh this

2:28:49zoning. So, we look, if you look to the

2:28:52left, it's going to be a a daytime

2:28:54concept and this is going to be the

2:28:55nighttime concept. We really want to

2:28:57keep that retro feel. Uh we want to we

2:29:00want to establish business here. Um it

2:29:03will sit and look like this for I don't

2:29:07know how long because I I I don't plan

2:29:10on moving. I do want to keep it in Auto

2:29:12Plaza as there's a tire shop, body shop,

2:29:16uh even a mechanic shop, and even I just

2:29:19signed a lease with a tint and paint

2:29:21protection film uh business. And I think

2:29:25that complements this dealership really

2:29:27well. Um the concept is to go high-end,

2:29:30although it's in a rough area. Um, but

2:29:33we do have uh previous experience in the

2:29:36the auto industry as I was uh working

2:29:39for Chevrolet and I'm very confident I

2:29:41can make this work, make it last a very

2:29:44long time and then as we continue to

2:29:48make our money as entrepreneurs, I'd

2:29:51love to step into mixed use and maybe

2:29:53even further develop the the back area,

2:29:56buy a property next door for a parking

2:29:59garage. I know that sounds uh sounds

2:30:01crazy, but I I think that's very

2:30:03possible and likely. Thank you.

2:30:06>> Thank you. This item has been for public

2:30:08comment. Is there anyone who would like

2:30:09to speak at this time? Seeing none, I'll

2:30:12be closing public comment and turning

2:30:14over to members of the commission.

2:30:15Starting with Commissioner Schlotman.

2:30:18>> Thank you, Chair. Uh and Ysef, thank you

2:30:20for coming to my office and meeting with

2:30:21me um with your um with with your

2:30:24representative. I I see that he's not

2:30:26here tonight, but

2:30:29and I'll tell you and just repeat

2:30:32everything that we said when you met

2:30:33with me. I I I like you. I think you're

2:30:35you're you're a great guy. You have a

2:30:37lot of potential and you didn't have

2:30:40these images when you met with me. I I

2:30:42do like what what you're presenting.

2:30:46Um, however,

2:30:49on the planning commission, I don't have

2:30:51the ability to say that you can only

2:30:54sell a certain type of car. Um, and

2:30:58that's where my my my issue um comes in

2:31:01because, you know, you might be a

2:31:04stand-up business person who comes in

2:31:07and has high-end cars, but in six years

2:31:10you might sell this business or you

2:31:12might hire another uh, you know, manager

2:31:15to run this lot. And then next thing you

2:31:17know, we have a like a horrible car lot

2:31:21that we've been plagued with on Bruce

2:31:24and Fremont for the past, you know, 12

2:31:26years.

2:31:27>> So, we approved it on the planning

2:31:29commission at one point and the

2:31:31landscaping's all been cut down. They

2:31:34every now and then they'll bring in some

2:31:36like clunkers and and then, you know,

2:31:39then those will move on and and it just

2:31:41gets graffitied and everything else.

2:31:44When I look at the 2050 master plan,

2:31:46when I look at the redevelopment plan,

2:31:48this doesn't fit within the goals. I

2:31:51think you heard me talk earlier tonight.

2:31:53Doesn't seem like all the planning

2:31:54commissioners uh agreed with me. But

2:31:56when it comes down to auto related uses,

2:31:59if it's car lots, if it's auto repair

2:32:02shops, minor, major, transmission shops,

2:32:06any of that doesn't really belong in our

2:32:08our redevelopment area. Um, it's not if

2:32:12if I go read the redevelopment code,

2:32:15that's not what what you know it that

2:32:18that's not what our redevelopment code

2:32:20says that we're looking for. We're

2:32:22looking for mixed use, we're looking for

2:32:24office, retail, we're looking for

2:32:26housing, we're looking for all these

2:32:28uses, but there's nothing in our

2:32:31redevelopment code that says we're

2:32:32looking for uh an another auto related

2:32:35use.

2:32:37If you were literally two blocks down

2:32:40the street on Boulder Highway,

2:32:43I would say I would have a different

2:32:45opinion. We'd be outside the

2:32:47redevelopment area. We We have car

2:32:50dealerships. We have trailer lots. We We

2:32:53have RV cells. We have all sorts of uses

2:32:57up and down Boulder Highway. Five Points

2:33:00is the main gateway into our

2:33:03redevelopment area on the east side. Um,

2:33:06you know, and we we've had some great

2:33:09projects and some good projects come

2:33:12forward, which it doesn't seem like some

2:33:15of the planning commission approved

2:33:16because it wasn't high um of a high

2:33:19enough caliber. And, you know, I think

2:33:21that even though I I like the elevations

2:33:25and and what you're showing me,

2:33:28I'm not city council. I can't vote based

2:33:31on on you as a person. I have to vote on

2:33:34on the use and this just doesn't have

2:33:37anything in it that that is going to

2:33:39push that redevelopment any further. And

2:33:42I don't think any of these plan

2:33:43commissioners drive that area, but I do.

2:33:47I last month I lived at the Fremont

2:33:49Street Lofts right behind you.

2:33:51>> I don't live there anymore. Um but I

2:33:55know this area. I I drive this area two

2:33:57times a day and so I I know it very

2:33:59well.

2:34:00needs a lot of work and needs a lot of

2:34:03investment.

2:34:05Hoping you come come to us with

2:34:07something that that uh you know fits

2:34:10those goals of the redevelopment area

2:34:12and hopefully I can get behind you. But

2:34:15as far as this goes, this doesn't even

2:34:17meet the the the basic minimum site uh

2:34:22site requirements. Um and so on this I'm

2:34:26going follow staff's recommendation for

2:34:28denial. But before I do so, I'll see if

2:34:31anybody else has any comments.

2:34:33>> Commissioner Rogan,

2:34:34>> thanks. I I totally agree with

2:34:36Commissioner Schlottman on this. I think

2:34:37that um the elevate the pictures that

2:34:41you're showing up on the screen right

2:34:42now are beautiful, but really it just

2:34:44comes down to to what the use is. And as

2:34:46Commissioner Schlottman noted, this is a

2:34:48redevelopment area. What we're concerned

2:34:50with with is alleviating blight in that

2:34:52area. And um I think that used car

2:34:55dealerships contribute to the appearance

2:34:57of blight rather than new car

2:34:59dealerships or other different types of

2:35:00uses. I mean even parking lots I think

2:35:03would work even though it's auto

2:35:04oriented if there was a need for a

2:35:06parking lot like there was um on an

2:35:08application earlier tonight for a

2:35:10charging station. But for a used car

2:35:12dealership, I just don't think that's

2:35:14that's appropriate and compatible for a

2:35:16redevelopment area. It's not compatible

2:35:18with the the master plan. It's just not

2:35:21compatible. um I think with what we

2:35:23intend that area to look like in the

2:35:25future. So I'm not supporting the

2:35:28application tonight.

2:35:33>> See no other comments. Commissioner

2:35:34Schlotman.

2:35:36>> All right. Um on item number 18 26312

2:35:41SUP1 move to follow staff's

2:35:44recommendation for denial

2:35:51and use of hopefully LCU in the future.

2:35:53>> Yes sir. Thank you.

2:35:56>> And that item will move on to city

2:35:57council on November 4th.

2:36:06Motion carries.

2:36:15And with that, that brings us to agenda

2:37:10requirements. I will also be opening

2:37:12this up with agenda item 45 which is a

2:37:15joint item and that is agenda item

2:37:184526-0436

2:37:20VR1 applicant plaster development

2:37:22company Inc. owner signature homes 073

2:37:24LLC for possible action on the land use

2:37:26entitlement project request to allow

2:37:28proposed perimeter and retaining wall

2:37:30that does not conform to tile 19.06

2:37:32development standards for height and

2:37:34overall height on the north side of

2:37:35Alexander Road approximately 330 ft east

2:37:38of Giuliano Road. Staff, can I please

2:37:40get the report?

2:37:41>> Yes, Madam Chair. The applicant is

2:37:43attempting to overdevelop the subject

2:37:44properties as evidenced by the requested

2:37:46variances for connectivity and perimeter

2:37:48and retaining wall heights.

2:37:50Additionally, the proposed single family

2:37:52residential zoning district is not in

2:37:54compliance with planning area B as

2:37:55defined by the 2016 interlocal

2:37:57agreement, which would allow 6,500 foot

2:38:00lot sizes. Staff therefore recommends

2:38:03denial of all entitlement requests. If

2:38:05approved, the variances intended to map

2:38:06will be subject to conditions. Please

2:38:09note, additional documentation of

2:38:10protest has been submitted after

2:38:12publication. Thank you.

2:38:16>> Please state your name for the record.

2:38:17>> Good evening. Jennifer Lazovich, 1980

2:38:20Festival Plaza Drive, here tonight on

2:38:21behalf of the applicant. The site is

2:38:23located immediately north of Alexander

2:38:26Road and just to the east of El Capitan.

2:38:29On either side of us, there are existing

2:38:32two uh projects each with eight homes on

2:38:37either side of a culdesac. What we are

2:38:40proposing today uh is a conforming zone

2:38:44change to R1, but we are only doing six

2:38:47lots. So on to the east of us is eight,

2:38:50to the west of us is eight, and we are

2:38:52proposing to do six lots. That's two

2:38:55lots less than either the east side or

2:38:57the west side have. In addition, all of

2:39:00the lots are proposed to be a minimum of

2:39:0210,000 square ft. So, while um staff is

2:39:06suggesting that the zoning category

2:39:09doesn't comply with the interlocal

2:39:11agreement, um in terms of the lot size

2:39:14and the density, it does comply with the

2:39:16interlocal agreement. Again, limited to

2:39:18six lots and a minimum lot size of

2:39:2010,000 square ft. uh the in this

2:39:24particular case um the R1 zoning was

2:39:27requested because of the setbacks

2:39:29associated with that particular zoning

2:39:31category rather than uh the setbacks

2:39:34that are associated with a lower

2:39:36density. um we would have needed to have

2:39:39sought at least two variances per lot.

2:39:42And on a project this small um because

2:39:44of the way the city charges for

2:39:46variances, we would have probably been

2:39:48north of $12,000 in application fees for

2:39:51those setback variances. So, we chose

2:39:53instead to go with the R1 zoning. Again,

2:39:56we're okay with a condition that limits

2:39:57it to six lots and a minimum of 10,000

2:40:00square feet because we are less than the

2:40:02lots on either side of us. In terms of

2:40:05the wall height, our greatest wall

2:40:08height sits right about here. Um the

2:40:10reason why we have to have it is is that

2:40:12we have to bump up our entry street to

2:40:14deal with um not allowing drainage flows

2:40:17to come onto our site. So as a

2:40:19consequence, we have to bump up the wall

2:40:21height right in this area. As you get

2:40:24around to the north and to the west, it

2:40:26will be your normal wall height. So that

2:40:28wall height is not all around the whole

2:40:30site. It is just in the areas which I'll

2:40:32really say is predominantly the east

2:40:34side where we have to bring it up a

2:40:35little bit but the north and the west

2:40:37will have um what I would call a regular

2:40:40wall height along Alexander Road. We are

2:40:44meeting um the

2:40:46existing

2:40:48treatment that is on either side of us

2:40:50to the east and west for consistency. So

2:40:53you'll [snorts] have the edge of the

2:40:54pavement, curb, gutter, 5 ft of

2:40:56landscaping, a 10- foot wide sidewalk,

2:40:59and then another 5 ft of landscaping up

2:41:02adjacent to our block wall on lots uh

2:41:05six and on lots one. So with um this

2:41:09explanation, we would ask that you

2:41:11recommend approval of the project.

2:41:14Thank you. This item has been for public

2:41:16comment at this time. Is there anyone

2:41:18who would like to speak?

2:41:20See, please come forward and state for

2:41:22the record your name.

2:41:30>> Hi, Britney DS. I live at 4021 Sweet

2:41:34Violet Court, which is to the east of

2:41:37the proposed plan.

2:41:40So, I will start with um what she had

2:41:42mentioned regarding the wall that'll be

2:41:45on the right hand side, which will be my

2:41:46backyard. Um they're asking for a

2:41:48variance because the pro proposed

2:41:50perimeter and the retaining wall does

2:41:52not conform to title 19.06

2:41:55which is the standard of um they're not

2:41:57meeting the standard of the general

2:41:58height but then the overall height. So

2:42:01they're asking to bring in a retaining

2:42:02wall that's actually higher than our

2:42:04current wall that we have in our

2:42:05backyard right now which kind of defeats

2:42:07the purpose of why we moved to this

2:42:08area. They want to add a 10-ft retaining

2:42:11wall with then allowing a six-foot wall

2:42:14on top of that. That then puts the

2:42:16overall height at 16 feet. I understand

2:42:19the drainage and the things that go on

2:42:20and what's necessary, but I think that

2:42:22is a little bit more than what is

2:42:25necessary because they will be starting

2:42:27their I guess you could say their pad

2:42:29exactly 4 feet above where our wall is

2:42:32today. And then with the allowance of it

2:42:34being two stories as well, we will have

2:42:37a wall that's 16 feet across four of our

2:42:40homes. And that completely obstructs all

2:42:42view. it reduces the value of our

2:42:46property and defeats the purpose of why

2:42:48we moved out to the Lone Mountain area

2:42:49to begin with. So, I asked that as the

2:42:52staff recommended denying this proposal.

2:42:56Um, I'm okay with some of the other

2:42:58things that she mentioned and what

2:43:00they're seeking, but the wall height is

2:43:02a little much for that area and with the

2:43:042% grade, I understand, which I would

2:43:07love to see the documentation on that

2:43:08too. Um, but it is a little bit too much

2:43:11for this area. So, thank you for

2:43:13listening.

2:43:14>> No, I appreciate it. And if there are no

2:43:16other comments at this time, if the

2:43:18applicant can come forward and maybe

2:43:20elaborate a little bit or if you have um

2:43:23Thank you. if you're able to come down

2:43:25and if you have any documentation

2:43:26materials to showcase the wall, please

2:43:29do.

2:43:43uh Rick Baron Signature Homes 801 South

2:43:46Rancho.

2:43:49So, I'm going to hopefully explain a

2:43:50little bit more about the wall height

2:43:52scenario here, which is not unlike what

2:43:55you would see along the westerly portion

2:43:56of the B of the wall. Um, as Jennifer

2:43:59had mentioned, as the flows are coming

2:44:01down uh Alexander here to the east, we

2:44:04are required to raise the entry enough

2:44:06to keep those flows outside of the

2:44:08subdivision. I would tell you that right

2:44:11now one of our biggest cost concerns is

2:44:13the import material for for any site

2:44:16around the valley. It runs us as much as

2:44:18$20 per cubic yard to raise a site. We

2:44:21don't want to raise that site

2:44:22artificially either, but the drainage

2:44:24requirements and the grading

2:44:26requirements are going to force that

2:44:27retaining wall and that combination.

2:44:29>> I'm so sorry. Is it possible for you to

2:44:31move the mic a little bit? I know that

2:44:32this is the perimeter. Thank you.

2:44:34>> I watched this all night and then still

2:44:36did the same thing. So um so very

2:44:39similarly again uh similar to the west

2:44:41side of the property where there's a

2:44:43large uh set of retaining walls and

2:44:45screen wall. It's a it's a forced

2:44:47condition from the grading design.

2:44:51And I don't have the information in

2:44:53front of me, but I'd imagine the east

2:44:55side of that existing subdivision to the

2:44:57east would have a very similar condition

2:44:59where there's a large retaining wall.

2:45:02We will work with the city's drainage

2:45:05department, try to reduce that as much

2:45:06as possible and I'm open to any other

2:45:10suggestions that might work for them.

2:45:12>> I would certainly say if there is a way

2:45:14to to give a little on the wall. I know

2:45:16that this I believe is going to city

2:45:18council and so there's a little bit of

2:45:19opportunity to work with public works

2:45:21and the drainage and just to see if

2:45:22there there is wiggle room um beyond

2:45:25just what the elevation demands. But I

2:45:27would appreciate that. Um, I will say is

2:45:29there any other member on the commission

2:45:31that have any thoughts or concerns?

2:45:33Commissioner Walters. Oh, sorry. Your

2:45:35mic is on.

2:45:37Thank you. Um,

2:45:41so with that, from a perspective of the

2:45:43amount of units that are being put on

2:45:45this lot, I do I think it's harmonious

2:45:47and compatible with the neighbors, but I

2:45:48do understand the concern with the wall.

2:45:50And so, like I said, I don't necessarily

2:45:53think I will condition it, but I will

2:45:55strongly encourage and obviously I'll

2:45:57encourage you to work with the council

2:45:59woman regarding and public works just to

2:46:01see if there's wiggle room and a way to

2:46:03get that wall to come down. Um, and then

2:46:05if you don't mind taking the address or

2:46:08the contact information of the neighbor,

2:46:10I would appreciate that as well. Um,

2:46:12just so the dialogue and so you're made

2:46:14aware of um, if they're able to make

2:46:16those changes. So, I appreciate that.

2:46:19Um, with that I am ready to make a

2:46:22motion. So I'm sure

2:46:24>> Yep.

2:46:24>> Sorry, Commissioner Rogan.

2:46:26>> Just another abstension for this project

2:46:28does fall again within the interlocal

2:46:30agreement between Clark County and the

2:46:32city of Las Vegas. And as an attorney

2:46:34for Clark County, I cannot vote on this

2:46:36matter and will not be voting on this

2:46:37matter. I will say that your lots are

2:46:39big. Maybe there's a chance that you can

2:46:41have a stepped back um wall so that it's

2:46:44not a 16 foot wall height. So that um

2:46:47that neighbor isn't looking at a 16 foot

2:46:49wall.

2:46:52Perfect. So with that, I will be making

2:46:55a motion to approve agenda item 19

2:46:58obeyance renotification 26-356

2:47:0219 A 19 B 19 C and 19 D.

2:47:11Motion carries.

2:47:12>> And that will move on to city council on

2:47:14November 4th.

2:47:16>> And with that, I will also be making a

2:47:18motion on agenda item 4526-0436,

2:47:22VR1, applicant plaster development

2:47:24company, Inc. Owner Signature Homes, 073

2:47:26LLC.

2:47:32>> Was that a motion for approval or

2:47:34denial? Uh that is for approval and

2:47:36subject to staff conditions and you

2:47:37agree with staff conditions.

2:47:39>> Yes, we do.

2:47:45>> Motion carries. And like I said, if you

2:47:46don't mind grabbing her contact

2:47:48information as well, I thank you.

2:47:49>> Absolutely. Thank you.

2:47:51>> And now we'll move on to city council on

2:47:52November 4th.

2:47:56>> That brings us to agenda item 20 26-0307

2:47:59SDR1. applicant Puyo Mobile owner is

2:48:06on a land use entitlement project

2:48:09transient sales lot at E30 North Rancho

2:48:11Drive. Staff, can I please get the

2:48:13report?

2:48:15>> Madam Chair, staff finds the proposed

2:48:17outdoor grill area to be compatible with

2:48:19the planned restaurant on this site and

2:48:21surrounding area. The outdoor grill

2:48:24conforms to title 19 setback standards

2:48:26and all other conditional use

2:48:28regulations for the open air vending

2:48:30transient sales lot use. Staff therefore

2:48:33recommends approval of the site

2:48:34development plan review subject to

2:48:36conditions. Thank you.

2:48:38>> Please state your name for the record.

2:48:39>> Dear Vasquez.

2:48:42>> So we're seeking approval for the tent

2:48:44and grill um that at the moment they're

2:48:46both um they're not permanent. However,

2:48:49we're also seeking approval for the 10

2:48:51to be permanent in the future.

2:48:56>> Okay. Thank you. This item has been for

2:48:59public comment. Is there anyone who

2:49:00would like to speak at this time? Seeing

2:49:02none, I will be closing public comment.

2:49:04Turn over to members of the commission.

2:49:05Starting with Commissioner Walters.

2:49:08>> Hi. Thanks. So, we did um I did talk to

2:49:10the property owner and um the restaurant

2:49:13owner and we had uh discussed and agreed

2:49:17to make that structure permanent. So, I

2:49:19appreciate that and I believe we have a

2:49:21condition that we could read into the

2:49:24record for that.

2:49:25>> Yes, Madam Chair, through you. That

2:49:28added condition would read, "A building

2:49:31permit shall be issued and a final

2:49:33inspection approved for a permanent

2:49:35shade structure within 180 days of final

2:49:39approval."

2:49:42>> Okay. I I have no other concerns about

2:49:45this project. So, seeing no other

2:49:46comments, but you're ready to make a

2:49:48motion.

2:49:48>> Okay. I motion uh to approve item agenda

2:49:51item 20, that's 26-307

2:51:50itself, from what I understand from the

2:51:53uh real estate agent that I uh spoke

2:51:58with and have communication with, um the

2:52:01building owner is planning to have um

2:52:04the other um rooms of that suite, which

2:52:08are four of the rooms of the suite also

2:52:11be um rented out to similar uh

2:52:15businesses such as mine. uh uh medical

2:52:18type practitioners, uh healthc care type

2:52:21practitioners. Um and so um I'm just

2:52:25asking for um approval for my uh uh spe

2:52:31special use permit. Sorry, I'm very

2:52:34nervous and I've never been um in a

2:52:37situation like this before. I've always

2:52:39been an employee working as a massage

2:52:41therapist under someone else. This is

2:52:43the first time that I've ventured out to

2:52:46try to do business on my own. Um,

2:52:50but I I did notice and I apologize for I

2:52:53feel like I'm not very prepared today,

2:52:56but I did notice that um there were um

2:52:58issues regarding my space and um

2:53:02regarding the issue with parking. Um I'm

2:53:05the only uh person of my business. So,

2:53:09uh, and I only function from in an

2:53:11appointment basis with my clients. So, I

2:53:14will only ever have one client with me

2:53:16at a time. So, the most amount of

2:53:18parking that I would actually need would

2:53:20be three spaces. One space for me, one

2:53:22space for a current client, and possibly

2:53:24one space for an additional client that

2:53:27may show up um, immediately following,

2:53:30but three spaces it is all I would need.

2:53:32I wouldn't need 77 spaces. And as far as

2:53:36like uh the

2:53:38um [sighs] my neighbors, the uh I think

2:53:41there's a child care facility not too

2:53:43far, one church, and I know that there's

2:53:45a neighborhood behind me um if

2:53:50if I'm allowed to. I I'd like to be able

2:53:52to go and visit those spaces and and

2:53:54speak to the property owners and speak

2:53:56to maybe the director of the child care

2:53:59facility and um possibly the churches to

2:54:02inquire about um my my um renting in

2:54:07that space. Um

2:54:10and with that um I humbly ask you to

2:54:14approve my project.

2:54:16>> Thank you. This item has been noticed

2:54:18for public comment at this time. Is

2:54:19there anyone who would like to speak?

2:54:21Seeing none, I'll be closing public

2:54:23comment, turning over to members of the

2:54:24commission, starting with Commissioner

2:54:25Rogan.

2:54:28I

2:54:29>> I don't have any concerns about the

2:54:30application given that you're just one

2:54:32person. Um I think that probably we

2:54:35should get the building owner in here

2:54:36somehow to address the issue that's

2:54:38really not the fault of this applicant,

2:54:40but of

2:54:42um an oversight. So, if we could somehow

2:54:45do that, that would be great. But um you

2:54:47shouldn't suffer for someone else's

2:54:50issue. So I'm supportive of this

2:54:52application. Does anyone have anyone

2:54:54else have any comments? No. Okay. Then

2:54:57I'm I make a motion for approval of

2:54:58agenda item 22 project um 26-0315.

2:55:04That's a motion for approval

2:55:06subject to

2:55:09staff conditions. And you agree to those

2:55:10conditions, ma'am?

2:55:11>> Yes. Okay.

2:55:16Motion carries. Thank you.

2:55:18>> And that that will move on to city

2:55:19council on November 4th.

2:55:22That brings us to agenda item 23

2:56:08the existing shopping center and the

2:56:11adjacent residential, commercial, and

2:56:12college land uses. Therefore, staff

2:56:25>> Please state your name for the record.

2:56:26>> Great. Hi there, N Grimsman, an urban

2:56:29planner with Stella Wilmer. Uh while we

2:56:30have an office here in Las Vegas, I'm

2:56:32out of Phoenix.

2:56:34>> Hi, I'm Kristen Raymond. Work for Fusion

2:56:36Academy. I'm the director for new school

2:56:39launch.

2:56:40Hello, my name is Hyman Porus and I am

2:56:42the district vice president for Fusion

2:56:44Academy. Uh, and I'm located in Los

2:56:46Angeles. Great. Um, Commissioner, chair

2:56:50and commissioners. Thank you for your

2:56:51time tonight. Uh, obviously a long

2:56:52agenda, so I'll make this short. Just

2:56:54want to say, uh, thank you, Mr. Boils,

2:56:56for all his work on and great staff

2:56:57report. We're good with all the

2:56:58conditions. Um, we do have, um, on two

2:57:02conditions, uh, one on SGP 1 and one on

2:57:05SGP 2. Um, condition eight and seven

2:57:07respectively. Uh it does say uh there's

2:57:11a total number of primary and secondary

2:57:12students shall not exceed 90. Um we just

2:57:15wanted to uh clarify that as on-site at

2:57:17any given time. Um and the reason for

2:57:20that being with the online and hybrid

2:57:22program, we didn't want to misconrue uh

2:57:24nature that their overall enrollment

2:57:26might might be in violation

2:57:27inadvertently. So um with that minor

2:57:30change, uh we're good with everything

2:57:32and uh would respectfully request your

2:57:34approval and are here to answer any

2:57:35questions you might have.

2:57:36>> Wonderful. Thank you. So, this item has

2:57:38been noticed for public comment at this

2:57:39time. Is there anyone who would like to

2:57:40comment? Seeing none, I will close

2:57:43public comment. Turn over to members of

2:57:44the commission. Starting with

2:57:45Commissioner Leau.

2:57:47Thank you so much. Um, I know that we've

2:57:50met in the past on this project and I I

2:57:53think it's going to be a great addition

2:57:55um to the area, especially Tivoli

2:57:58Village. I know this space has never

2:57:59been built out before um in the past.

2:58:02And um you know the understanding is

2:58:04that Fusion Academy is is really serving

2:58:07a need of a student that hasn't been

2:58:09able to be met in any other capacity um

2:58:12with traditional schools. Um and I think

2:58:14that you know we're we're in favor of

2:58:18schools that meet um you know a

2:58:20different a different level of needs for

2:58:22students. So, I know that there was some

2:58:25concern about um the Tivoli Village

2:58:29gaming and alcohol licenses that are

2:58:31currently, you know, there's obviously

2:58:34uh ones in place already and I I assume

2:58:36you don't have any issue with those, you

2:58:38know, being there.

2:58:39>> Correct. Uh we have no issue with that

2:58:41at all and are working with the landlord

2:58:43um on some clarification on that in the

2:58:45lease, etc. So, it all be taken care of

2:58:46as well.

2:58:47>> Okay, sounds good. Um with that I would

2:58:49like to motion to approve unless there's

2:58:51any other

2:58:52>> Please do.

2:58:53>> Uh I motion to approve um item number

2:58:5726318

2:59:02conditions.

2:59:04>> Excuse me. Um

2:59:05>> subject to

2:59:06>> I was wondering if we could uh uh with

2:59:08that little minor change uh on site uh

2:59:10at any given time to condition eight and

2:59:12condition seven of the two. I I if you

2:59:15got the U screen, I've got the language

2:59:17here.

2:59:29>> Do you want me to read those

2:59:33>> conditions?

2:59:34>> Madame Chair, through you. That is a

2:59:36public works condition. I would be more

2:59:39comfortable if public works agreed to

2:59:42amend that condition. [laughter]

2:59:44>> I I think it does meet the intent that

2:59:46that y'all had in the stip. Just wanted

2:59:48to clarify.

3:00:02Um I can strike that uh that line.

3:00:06Sorry. Let me through you. Madam chair,

3:00:11are we striking that line for shall not

3:00:14exceed 90 students?

3:00:15>> I believe that they just want to amend

3:00:17by adding on that on-site at any given

3:00:19time.

3:00:20>> Yes. Okay, then I accept. And uh would

3:00:23you like me to read this?

3:00:24>> Yes, please do.

3:00:25>> Okay. Um

3:00:27[clears throat] I would like to update

3:00:30uh condition number eight uh to read

3:00:33that the total number of primary

3:00:35students allowed shall be limited based

3:00:37on the secondary student enroll

3:00:39enrollment. Uh the total number of

3:00:41primary and secondary students shall not

3:00:44exceed 90 students on site at any given

3:00:46time.

3:00:51>> Do we need to read that for both

3:00:53conditions condition eight and seven?

3:00:56Uh SCP7 is is not a uh public works

3:01:01condition. Oh, this is uh for SCP 2. Uh

3:01:05yes, I apologize. Uh I would also like

3:01:08to update condition number seven to read

3:01:10the total number of secondary students

3:01:15number of primary and secondary students

3:01:17shall not exceed 90 students on site at

3:01:19any given time.

3:01:21>> Thank you so much. And you agree with

3:01:22those conditions?

3:01:23>> Very much so. Thank you. Thank you.

3:01:28[cough]

3:01:29>> Motion carries.

3:01:30>> And that is final action tonight. Must

3:01:32appeal to the city clerk in 10 days.

3:01:37>> That brings us to agenda item 25

3:01:4026-0344.

3:01:41applicant owner Sequoia Enro JV LLC for

3:01:45possible action on the following land

3:01:46use entitlement project requests at 5644

3:01:49and 5650 Grizzly Summit Drive 25A

3:01:5226-0344

3:02:10lot size and lot width 5644 Grizzly

3:02:13Summit Drive. Staff, can I please get

3:02:15the report?

3:02:17>> Madam Chair, staff finds the hardship

3:02:19related to the requested variances to be

3:02:21self-imposed and therefore recommends

3:02:23denial subject to conditions if

3:02:25approved. Please note there were

3:02:27additional documents of protest received

3:02:29after publication. Thank you.

3:02:31>> Thank you. Please state your name for

3:02:32the record.

3:02:34>> Hi, I'm Tyler Whitney. I'm the developer

3:02:36uh for Sequo Homes.

3:02:40Um, can you guys see this? I brought a

3:02:44plot plan for lot nine. Um, let me move

3:02:46this out of the way. When we did this,

3:02:49we thought we had enough width in order

3:02:50to be able to make our floor plans for

3:02:52the subdivision fit. Um, when we went to

3:02:54do the plot plan for lot 9, we found the

3:02:57wall made a little bit narrow. So, we're

3:02:59requesting a sideyard setback of 3 ft

3:03:01where 5T's required. As you can see on

3:03:04the plot plan, it only interferes with a

3:03:07small portion of the house. Um, we

3:03:09actually have a buyer for this lot.

3:03:10They're aware of this. Um, and they're

3:03:12okay with this adjustment. Um, we also

3:03:15made some small modifications to lot 8

3:03:17in order to be able to to accommodate

3:03:19this. Um, we brought the property line

3:03:22for lot 9 uh in between lot 8 and 9 down

3:03:252 ft. Uh, we still have the 5ft setbacks

3:03:28on lot 8. Um, and I [clears throat]

3:03:31believe we fell just under the 60 ft

3:03:33width per code. I believe we're 59.35 ft

3:03:37um, on average. And we're just slightly

3:03:40under the lot square footage requirement

3:03:42by maybe 100 square ft. Um, the

3:03:44additional variance we asked for on lot

3:03:469 was a 15 ft front yard setback. As you

3:03:49can see, we're on a culde-sac bulb here.

3:03:51Um, the driveway is actually located on

3:03:53the opposite side, so the driveway will

3:03:54be much larger than 15 ft. Um, so we

3:03:57don't think this will have a major

3:03:59impact on the community.

3:04:01>> Thank you. This item has been for public

3:04:02comment at this time. Is there anyone

3:04:04who would like to speak?

3:04:06>> Please come down and state your name for

3:04:07the record.

3:04:14>> Thank you, Madam Commissioner. My name

3:04:16is Richard Craraven. I reside at 6433

3:04:18West Anne Road, right across the street

3:04:20adjacent to this property. And I

3:04:22remember the the uh community meeting we

3:04:25had with this gentleman. Um and it was

3:04:27under our knowledge that it was going to

3:04:29be smaller homes. The amount of homes to

3:04:33things. So kind of from the get-go was

3:04:35kind of odd to us. Um so really what to

3:04:38simplify everything is that they bought

3:04:41this spot of land and they knew how to

3:04:43cookie cutter cookie cut it to what was

3:04:46the setbacks and everything else. And I

3:04:48understand that things happen during to

3:04:50construction where you have walls and

3:04:52construction like that. But myself and

3:04:54my community around me feel that um we

3:04:57didn't know the intent of what was the

3:04:59setback exactly. So I understand a

3:05:02little bit but I still say that it

3:05:03should be denied based on they should

3:05:05have known this at the get-go during

3:05:08their development during their design

3:05:10since they knew what the setbacks were.

3:05:12Um so um sorry I'm a little nervous. 7

3:05:15minutes up since 3:00 this morning

3:05:17working. So, I feel really passionate

3:05:19about it. That's why I'm here. Um really

3:05:21um I guess that's that's all I have as

3:05:25please consider the denial of the uh the

3:05:29amendment.

3:05:32>> Thank you so much. Is there anyone else

3:05:34who would like to speak at this time?

3:05:36Seeing none, I will close public comment

3:05:38and I'll invite if you would like to if

3:05:40you have any comments that you would

3:05:42like to address.

3:05:43>> Yeah, just one more thing.

3:05:46Yeah, if I could just point out one more

3:05:47thing. We actually have a five- foot

3:05:49common easement right here running

3:05:50around the side as well as the back. So

3:05:52even though we are encroaching on that

3:05:545ft sideyard setback, there's still a

3:05:565ft common element between us and the

3:05:59adjacent property behind us.

3:06:01>> Thank you so much for clarifying. And

3:06:03with that, I will turn over to members

3:06:04of the commission, starting with

3:06:05Commissioner Taylor. U Thank you, Madam

3:06:07Chair. Um Sir Tyler, can you come back

3:06:09up? Thanks. I just have a couple

3:06:11questions. Um,

3:06:15so

3:06:18this is at the end of the culde-sac of

3:06:21grizzly bear. Is that right?

3:06:22>> Yes, this is the end of the coals sack

3:06:23bulb.

3:06:24>> Okay. And so does it

3:06:28abut anything on Lo Avenue?

3:06:32Uh there there are houses to the north,

3:06:36but there's a not only is it our lot,

3:06:38but there's also that common element B,

3:06:40as you can see in my plot plan, that

3:06:42separates us between those houses to the

3:06:44north.

3:06:45>> Wait, I'm sorry. What was the first

3:06:46thing you said? There is a lot in

3:06:48addition to the easement.

3:06:49>> So, so there's my lot nine here, and

3:06:52then there's that common element B,

3:06:53which is 5T, which which is a and then

3:06:56there's uh houses to the north of us

3:06:58adjacent right here

3:06:59>> and those are off of Lo Avenue, Loki or

3:07:01whatever. Yeah, I believe so.

3:07:02>> Okay. With the um

3:07:06lot

3:07:08fill or the lot height

3:07:11um and the movement of the house a

3:07:14little bit to the north,

3:07:17what does that do to the overall

3:07:18elevation of the house? Like, is it

3:07:20going to be the equivalent of a

3:07:22two-story home?

3:07:23>> No, it doesn't affect the grade change

3:07:25on the lot at all. Um, if anything,

3:07:27we're only interfering with maybe five

3:07:29feet within that five foot setback. Do

3:07:32you see how the the law the wall is

3:07:34slanted? It's it's a very small change.

3:07:36>> Okay. All right. Um, I don't think I

3:07:38have any other questions. If anybody

3:07:40else has anything, I'm prepared to make

3:07:42a motion.

3:07:43>> Please do.

3:07:44>> Okay. Thank you so much. Um on um item

3:07:47number 26-0344,

3:07:51I would like to make a motion to approve

3:08:59>> Um

3:09:01Mr. Whitney, did you leave already? He

3:09:03did leave already.

3:09:05Um,

3:09:07>> Madame Chair, I do believe we have it

3:09:10correct. U, we did not refer to lot

3:09:13numbers in the um, in the agenda. We do

3:09:17have it. He has a com a copy of his

3:09:20permit here. We have it addressed as

3:09:225650 Grizzly Summit Drive and then 5644.

3:09:29So, I do believe we do have the right

3:09:31lots.

3:09:33>> Okay.

3:09:35Is that are you okay sir

3:09:38>> through you madam chair? Yes we are we

3:09:40are fine with this.

3:11:00can I please get the report?

3:11:03Madame Chair, please note revised plans

3:11:05received after advertising reduced the

3:11:08number of lots proposed from 18 to 15

3:11:11lots. The applicant is requesting a

3:11:14general plan amendment to realign the

3:11:16equestrian trail from Ula Street to

3:11:19Walapai Way, which staff supports as it

3:11:22would align with the existing trail

3:11:24improvements to the north. On the other

3:11:27hand, due to the site being located

3:11:29within the interlocal agreement area to

3:11:31A2, which requires a minimum lot size of

3:11:3518,000 square ft and proposing a private

3:11:38street without a gate that does not meet

3:11:40public street standards, staff is not

3:11:43able to support the remaining

3:11:44applications and recommends denial of

3:11:47GPA1,

3:11:48Z1, VR1, and TMP1.

3:11:53Please note there is additional

3:11:54documentation of protest received after

3:11:57publication. Thank you.

3:12:00>> Please state your name for the record.

3:12:01>> Good evening. Jennifer Lazovich, 1980

3:12:04Festival Plaza Drive here tonight on

3:12:05behalf of Toll Brothers. The site is

3:12:08located just east of Walapai Way and in

3:12:11between Washburn to the north and Rosada

3:12:14to the south. Uh immediately to the west

3:12:17of the site is a portion of a Nevada

3:12:20readymix site. Um, you can kind of see

3:12:22that they've done stuff on it. I I think

3:12:24in general they use it for some amount

3:12:27of storage um these days, which you can

3:12:29kind of see when you're on the 215. Uh,

3:12:32just west of that is the 215. This is

3:12:34the larger Nevada readymix site that

3:12:37sits on the west side of the 215.

3:12:40Immediately diagonally across Wallup

3:12:43Highway, uh, this particular subdivision

3:12:46um has a combination of zonings as you

3:12:48move to the north. It starts with R1 in

3:12:52this area and then it moves to a layer

3:12:54of RD and then as you get up into here

3:12:57it has um halfacre lots. The proposal

3:13:00that we initially filed had a request

3:13:04for 18 lots. This is the site plan that

3:13:07we showed at the neighborhood meeting.

3:13:09[snorts] Um subsequent to that um as

3:13:12Nicole read into the record, we are

3:13:14presenting tonight um a total of 15

3:13:17lots. Uh this particular site plan has

3:13:20access that comes in off of Rosadoway as

3:13:23well as Washburn. That is consistent

3:13:25with what we showed on the plan during

3:13:27the neighborhood meeting. The lots on

3:13:29the west side um get a little larger. Uh

3:13:33the reason for that is that we are

3:13:35looking to do a transition

3:13:38of lot sizes recognizing that we have R1

3:13:42right here. uh this Nevada ready mix

3:13:45site which if it is ever sold or turned

3:13:48into something else with R1 immediately

3:13:50to the north and the 215 here odds are

3:13:53that this density could be less than

3:13:55halfacre lots or I should say greater

3:13:58than halfacre lots. So um with

3:14:01recognizing that we were proposing a

3:14:03transition as you move uh to the east we

3:14:08are also maintaining that trail

3:14:10alignment. it will come down Walapai and

3:14:13it mirrors what the developer to the

3:14:15north of Washburn did. So, we're

3:14:17matching that trail alignment along I

3:14:19call it a trail alignment, a multi-use

3:14:21trail alignment along Walapai. Um,

3:14:24essentially, as I understand it,

3:14:25there'll be the pavement. Uh, there'll

3:14:27be some landscaping. There'll be

3:14:29actually a concrete sidewalk and then

3:14:32some type of light barrier and then a 10

3:14:35foot 8 to 10 foot wide non concrete area

3:14:39where it could be just a I'll call it a

3:14:41trail and then you would have additional

3:14:43landscaping on the wall along this um

3:14:46along our boundary of our site. um the

3:14:51uh remainder of the application um we

3:14:54are proposing uh two-story homes in this

3:14:56area and uh with that I'd be happy to

3:14:58answer any questions. Thank you so much.

3:15:01This item has been nosed for public

3:15:02comment. Is there anyone in the audience

3:15:04who would like to speak at this time?

3:15:05Please come down and state your name for

3:15:07the record.

3:15:18Hi, Kenny 4995 North Conisador Street.

3:15:23I'm guess within the thousand ft of this

3:15:26project. Uh I just recently purchased up

3:15:29in that area and it was RE. We're on a

3:15:311acre lot and this is very close. I do

3:15:34not want to see that density

3:15:37from my RE 1acre lot down to R1 lots.

3:15:43It'll I believe it'll devalue the

3:15:44property. I don't like the LAR project

3:15:48east or north of me is all I believe RD

3:15:52and they're keeping all theirs at single

3:15:55story where toll is coming in at twotory

3:15:59and R1 and I'm opposed to that and I

3:16:02hope you support staff recommendations

3:16:05in denying.

3:16:09>> Thank you. Please state your name for

3:16:10the record.

3:16:12Uh CJ Moley 9935 Westers Autoway.

3:16:16I'm directly across the street from it.

3:16:19Um obviously with the Northwest, we've

3:16:21seen three or four tonight. Lot size is

3:16:24the biggest concern.

3:16:26Um [snorts] I get it. I went through

3:16:29this process with LAR homes and I

3:16:32thought they worked very well with this.

3:16:34The outside streets were supposed to be

3:16:36a buffer to where it was single driveway

3:16:39entrance street facing and what they did

3:16:41on the inside kind of the other

3:16:44neighborhood couldn't see. Obviously,

3:16:46the plans have changed. They've kept

3:16:48that about 50%. Going down Rosada, it's

3:16:51a retaining wall all the way. That

3:16:54wasn't held up. I just uh I I would like

3:16:57to see a little time out on this project

3:17:00to spend some more time with the

3:17:02neighbors and see our concerns because

3:17:05we got thrown a piece of paper that's

3:17:07not even really a plan at a neighborhood

3:17:08meeting. Here we are. It's changed a

3:17:10little bit. I don't know if we're really

3:17:11going to get what's being proposed.

3:17:14Thank you.

3:17:19>> Colin Schneider, uh 5025 North Ela

3:17:21Street. Um I live uh just behind just to

3:17:24the south of uh Mr. Morley's house and

3:17:27uh one of the concerns that I have is

3:17:28well obviously I'm going to oppose the

3:17:30density increase for the residential and

3:17:31the twotory uh primary reasoning that I

3:17:34don't have any maps. I don't have any

3:17:35development but I actually when we were

3:17:37trying to do our home had the uh the

3:17:39privilege of the experience of coming in

3:17:41and having to request my own uh changes

3:17:43for plans and everything like that. And

3:17:45at that point in time, um, understanding

3:17:47that with it being the rural development

3:17:49area of the intent and to keep it that

3:17:51way, we have four young children that,

3:17:54uh, as we live on Ula Street, if they

3:17:55make Rosa an entrance street onto there,

3:17:58uh, we already have kids on these

3:17:59ebikes, the e- scooters coming over,

3:18:01jumping through the desert, doing the

3:18:02different things. And I have four young

3:18:03children, the oldest being 10, the

3:18:05youngest being turning four, that if now

3:18:08they open up an entrance on Rosada,

3:18:10they're going to be bringing uh, access

3:18:12to 15 homes. And then just to the east

3:18:14of where this one's going, they just

3:18:15bought another five acres that I can

3:18:17only imagine they're going to be doing

3:18:18another 15, taking it from an area of

3:18:21about seven to eight homes to all of a

3:18:23sudden 30 homes where they're going to

3:18:25make an access on a small Ula Street,

3:18:27which is a oneway each direction. No

3:18:29curb gutter, no development. Uh there's

3:18:31not even a stop sign that runs anywhere

3:18:32on that roadway and then all of a sudden

3:18:34there's going to be an influx of uh

3:18:36vehicles for 30 homes, two to three cars

3:18:38per vehicle. Um I understand development

3:18:41has to happen just as Mr. Morley talks

3:18:42about I understand we you can't avoid

3:18:45that and that's fine. I developed up

3:18:46there. I was part of this development.

3:18:48Uh I think with with respect as to being

3:18:50a homeowner and going through that

3:18:51process um

3:18:54just the understanding of that yes a

3:18:55little bit more time maybe find that and

3:18:57take into consideration that I don't

3:18:59know if anybody else has a house up

3:19:00there but if it was in your backyard it

3:19:02has a lot more significance as opposed

3:19:04to these builders that are trying to go

3:19:06through and develop the area. Perfectly

3:19:07fine with that. does nothing but help in

3:19:09the overall scheme and the plan for you

3:19:12know the 2050 agendas and items but uh

3:19:14we also need a little bit of respect on

3:19:16our end heard for the concerns that we

3:19:18have with our children our goals the

3:19:19money that we put forward I had to go

3:19:21and I sat here and one gentleman who was

3:19:23on the board I don't remember who it was

3:19:25but he actually had empathy in that the

3:19:27city was going to try to make me spend

3:19:28hundreds of thousands of dollars to

3:19:30bring in water for one residence and now

3:19:32all of a sudden that empathy is gone

3:19:35when it's a builder that wants to go and

3:19:37do this development and bring in all

3:19:38these people because that is absorbed in

3:19:41a lot of different ways. And so we're

3:19:42just asking for a little bit of respect

3:19:43and time and opportunity to make sure

3:19:44it's developed properly and safely for

3:19:46our families in our area. And I

3:19:48respectfully request that and thank you

3:19:49for your time. It's a long day. I know

3:19:50everyone else work today and you're at

3:19:52your end of your day and after this I

3:19:54get to go to my job. So appreciate your

3:19:56time.

3:19:59>> Good evening again, commissioners.

3:20:00Bridget Sulvi as a representative of the

3:20:03Northwest Rural Preservation Association

3:20:06for the neighborhood in this area.

3:20:08Again, we do this dance about density in

3:20:12parcels that are removed from the R&P.

3:20:16The density drop from 18 to 15. Okay,

3:20:19that's helpful, but we we need it to be

3:20:22less. the neighbors that have built

3:20:25their homes that are directly adjacent

3:20:28to this property to the south, we need

3:20:31it to be less than 15 parcels on this

3:20:35lot. Uh, and again, the uh request that

3:20:39the trail has been realigned, the

3:20:42neverending story, we still have horses

3:20:44out here and this trail constantly gets

3:20:48shifted. the surface gets altered all

3:20:52the time for what's proposed for a

3:20:54equestrian appropriate trail. It needs

3:20:58to be addressed. It needs to be um done

3:21:01correctly. And if the trail was

3:21:03realigned to from ULA to Halalapi, is

3:21:06that what I heard? Maybe I misheard it.

3:21:09There needs to be a barrier. I don't

3:21:11know that I heard anything about a

3:21:12barrier to protect horses from vehicles

3:21:15uh on on the portion that was allocated.

3:21:19Horses and vehicles do not go well

3:21:21together. The horse will ultimately die

3:21:24or be severely injured. So, we need to

3:21:26think forward and protect the animals,

3:21:29the riders as much as we protect the

3:21:31drivers. But please consider the trail

3:21:34and let's get this right. Uh lower the

3:21:37density. Let's get this right and not

3:21:40just keep giving away the R&P. Uh it is

3:21:44part of the interlocal agreement.

3:21:46another whole discussion that we're

3:21:47having right now. But please change and

3:21:51deny this uh deny this application as

3:21:55presented. Thank you.

3:22:01>> Mike Rivy, 10325 West Regina Avenue. I

3:22:05live in R&P and I'm just want to put

3:22:08forth this question. When is it okay not

3:22:11to change the the zoning on R&P

3:22:14property? When is it? What? What? It

3:22:18seems like it's been being rolled over

3:22:20all the time. I want to put that

3:22:22question. If somebody could answer that

3:22:24for me, I appreciate it. Thank you.

3:22:27Please don't uh please reduce the

3:22:29density on this development.

3:22:33>> Thank you so much. Is there anyone else

3:22:34who would like to speak at this time?

3:22:38>> Seeing none, I will be closing public

3:22:40comment and I will invite the applicant

3:22:41to come back. Um, and I just want to I

3:22:45have a couple questions, but I'll give

3:22:47you the opportunity to also address the

3:22:49concerns from the residents.

3:22:57>> Jennifer Lazovich, again, for the

3:22:58record, I understand where the residents

3:23:01are coming from. When we did our

3:23:02neighborhood meeting, many of them who

3:23:04spoke tonight were also at that

3:23:06neighborhood meeting. Um, from our

3:23:08perspective, again, we view Walapai as a

3:23:11major road out here. Uh, the width of it

3:23:14is um, significant and the amount of

3:23:18cars that are traveling on it now are

3:23:20significant and it's changed because

3:23:21that's your main, if you're not over

3:23:23here on the 215, you're really traveling

3:23:25north and southbound on Wallup Highway.

3:23:28So, as we look at this,

3:23:31we are trying to balance the things that

3:23:33are around us. um the Nevada Ready Mix

3:23:36site, the 215 and the R1 here. So, we

3:23:39believed that the but we also understand

3:23:43where the neighbors are coming from.

3:23:44They would prefer to see this all um

3:23:46certainly less than 15 homes which they

3:23:49expressed today. Um but this is our uh

3:23:53proposal to try to acknowledge the the

3:23:56transition that you have with something

3:23:58that's higher density likely over here

3:24:01and is already built to the kitty corner

3:24:03of us. And then as you move to the east

3:24:05where you start to get into um more of

3:24:08the halfacre or 1acre homes, Bridget

3:24:11asked specifically about the trail along

3:24:13Walapai. Yes, there is separation. What

3:24:15I described when I was making my

3:24:17presentation is that there's a curb

3:24:19gutter sidewalk, 5t of landscaping, 5

3:24:22foot of sidewalk, then a a barrier of

3:24:25sorts, then you have your your trail,

3:24:28your DG path, so to speak, and then you

3:24:31have the landscaping adjacent to the

3:24:33block wall. So there is that separation

3:24:36away from from the trail component, away

3:24:38from the road.

3:24:40>> Perfect. Okay. And do you mind also

3:24:42there is a map that shows kind of a

3:24:44proposed with the trail rerouting as

3:24:46well. I think that would also be

3:24:47helpful.

3:24:48>> Uh

3:24:51do you mean like a broader map to show

3:24:53where it's going?

3:24:55>> Yes, it's the one I'm I'm looking at

3:24:57right now in the supporting docks, but

3:24:58it is um the one that shows the

3:25:00suggested revised equestrian trail.

3:25:05I think it's this one.

3:25:08Yes, it's this one.

3:25:13I just thought it'd be helpful to also

3:25:14share um since I know that that was a

3:25:16concern for the trail. So, here's the

3:25:19site right here. Uh this is Walapai. Um

3:25:23this is the the parcels that I keep

3:25:25referring to, the R1 and the Nevada

3:25:27Ready Mix. Um and here's Walai. And it's

3:25:30my understanding, although staff can can

3:25:32certainly confirm this, that the trail

3:25:35was I think going over here on Ula. Um,

3:25:38and it might have even continued to do

3:25:39that up here, but when this development

3:25:41came, they shifted it over to Walapai.

3:25:44And so, we are mirroring what they're

3:25:46doing to the north of us as you continue

3:25:49south.

3:25:50>> Perfect. Thank you.

3:25:54So, with that, I will turn it over. Um,

3:25:57you've addressed my concerns on the

3:25:59trail and I do appreciate the barrier

3:26:01and I hope if that is sufficient for the

3:26:03residents at least I know not the

3:26:04density but in terms of protecting the

3:26:07horses and that trail continuity. Are

3:26:09there any other members of the

3:26:10commission that have any thoughts or

3:26:12concerns on this project? Commissioner

3:26:14Schlotman.

3:26:14>> Yes. So you're doing full full imp uh

3:26:18off-site improvements the sidewalks curb

3:26:20and gutter.

3:26:22>> Um, hang on. I just want to make sure

3:26:24certainly on Walapai the answer to that

3:26:26is yes but I want to check something to

3:26:29see if what we're doing on Washburn and

3:26:33Rosada

3:26:47I

3:26:48believe that we are doing on on the

3:26:52internal internal side of our site, I'll

3:26:54just stay on this. On the internal

3:26:56portion of our our own internal street,

3:26:59um we are not doing a sidewalk. Um but

3:27:02on the external part, certainly we're

3:27:05going to make the improvements on

3:27:06Walapai. And on um the north and south,

3:27:10which would be Washburn and Rosada, I

3:27:12believe that we are showing

3:27:15improvements. And yes, on this site

3:27:17plan, you can see it. So on Rosetta you

3:27:20have the full improvements and then as

3:27:22you come around Walapai you have the

3:27:24full improvements which includes a

3:27:25sidewalk and then as you go down

3:27:26Washburn you have that as well.

3:27:30>> And this is not gated correct

3:27:32>> is not correct.

3:27:36>> And then on the street lighting are you

3:27:39deferring the street lighting until the

3:27:41future

3:27:43>> or you installing it? Um, we would we

3:27:46would be installing it if unless there's

3:27:49an ask that we not I mean I understand

3:27:51that condition can be helpful too.

3:27:53That's fine. We understand.

3:27:54>> It it just says on condition number 12

3:27:56that street lighting may be deferred

3:27:58provided that the underground

3:27:59infrastructure including pool boxes,

3:28:01conduit and service pedestal power

3:28:03sources constructed um and title 19.02

3:28:08must be followed for deferral fees and

3:28:10covenant prior to issuance of permit.

3:28:13So, I'm just asking you, are you are you

3:28:16uh putting in those sidewalk I mean

3:28:19those street lights, are you deferring

3:28:20them per condition number 12?

3:28:22>> I think it's appropriate to put them in

3:28:24along Walapai given the size of the

3:28:27street that it is. I think with respect

3:28:29to Washurn and Rosada, we would be open

3:28:32to doing it either way.

3:28:34>> Okay. Well, in order to get my support,

3:28:37it would have to be 100% of the uh price

3:28:40of the street lights if you don't put

3:28:42them in. So that's only comment.

3:28:44>> Yes,

3:28:46>> we can condition that as well. I believe

3:28:49Miss Edos, if we can just clarify on a

3:28:52condition just to make sure that

3:28:54Commissioner Schlottman

3:28:56um has it in writing. Public works.

3:28:59Public works can condition it um for

3:29:02street lights to be put in on Halifi.

3:29:05And then for the north and southbound of

3:29:09the project, um I would recommend

3:29:12putting it in unless there is any other

3:29:14recommendation from the commission.

3:29:18>> Nope.

3:29:22And and madam chair, if they do put them

3:29:24in, I would just my preference would be

3:29:27to strike the the portion about the

3:29:29deferral fees and um you know the

3:29:34the the sentence the last sentence that

3:29:36says street lighting may be deferred.

3:29:39>> So but that that's just my opinion. This

3:29:41is your word.

3:29:42>> No, not a problem. public works. Do you

3:29:44mind crafting it so that we strike the

3:29:46language that is of concern to

3:29:47Schlottman and then we can do the new

3:29:50condition? Uh through you madam uh

3:29:52commissioner I or madam chair I I

3:29:56apologize I was just reading through it

3:29:57just to make sure that was the case and

3:29:59yes uh we are amendable to striking that

3:30:01that final sentence uh from or the last

3:30:05two sentences sentences from condition

3:30:0812

3:30:09um for the uh TMP1.

3:30:14So um and uh

3:30:17>> would you like me to read the the whole

3:30:19Okay. Uh uh I would like to strike the

3:30:24last two sentences of condition 12 for

3:30:26the fold condition to read as construct

3:30:28half street improvements including

3:30:29appropriate transition over paving on

3:30:31Halif Washurn Road and Rosado Way

3:30:34adjacent to the site meeting current

3:30:35city standards concurrent with the

3:30:37development of the site extend all

3:30:38required underground utilities such as

3:30:42electrical, telephone, etc. located

3:30:44within public rights away. pass the

3:30:46boundaries of the site prior to

3:30:48construction of hard surfacing uh

3:30:50asphalt or concrete. All existing paving

3:30:52damaged or removed from this development

3:30:54shall be restored at its original

3:30:56location to its original width

3:30:57concurrent with development of the site.

3:30:59Rosado Way and Washurn Road shall be

3:31:01constructed per uh 19.04.210.

3:31:06The cross-section on Huawei Way shall

3:31:08have standard curb sidewalking with the

3:31:10questions trail matching the approved

3:31:12cross-section immediately to the north

3:31:14of the site and the curb location must

3:31:16be acceptable to the city engineer.

3:31:19>> Thank you so much. Are there any other

3:31:22concerns? Commissioner Taylor.

3:31:23>> Uh thank you, Chair. Just two quick

3:31:25things. Um

3:31:27thank you Miss Lazovich for switching it

3:31:29up a little bit to have those transition

3:31:31lots. I recognize it's still denser than

3:31:33the neighbors would like, but I think

3:31:35that that is a good compromise to have

3:31:38those 10,000 and up square foot lots to

3:31:40the west. Um, but I did want to ask a

3:31:43question following up on Commissioner

3:31:45Schlottman. Does the road that goes

3:31:48through your subdivision, is that is

3:31:50there possibility that's a cut through

3:31:52then between other like could somebody

3:31:56could somebody use that north of

3:31:58Washburn? I was trying to find a map

3:32:01that showed like Yeah. If you were on

3:32:04Hammer, is this going to be something

3:32:05that would go all the way through?

3:32:08>> No, because it's in the middle. Okay.

3:32:10>> Right. Cuz this is it's kind of right

3:32:11here. And granted, I don't have this,

3:32:13but if you see the way this lays out, I

3:32:16don't believe that they have a through

3:32:17street continuing like that.

3:32:19>> Okay. I guess my just my concern would

3:32:21be if that was a possibility and then

3:32:24it's not gated and you don't have

3:32:25sidewalks

3:32:27that that could be a concern. So I, you

3:32:29know, I don't want to monkey with

3:32:31anything else for the work that you've

3:32:33done, but just maybe if that's something

3:32:34that you can look at a little bit more

3:32:36before city council, just again for

3:32:38those safety concerns.

3:32:42>> But otherwise, thanks for the work that

3:32:43you've done on this.

3:32:52>> Commissioner Walters. Yeah, I just want

3:32:54to say um as somebody who lives in a

3:32:57rural preservation neighborhood also

3:32:58with equestrian equestrian trails that

3:33:02are used by horses, um I appreciate the

3:33:06um the barriers and moving towards the

3:33:10the the larger lots. I appreciate that

3:33:12you brought it down to uh 15 lots. Um, I

3:33:16know that, you know, we're we're in a

3:33:18situation we're trying to to get people

3:33:20housing, but also, um, be considerate of

3:33:23those rural preservation areas. Um, and,

3:33:28you know, for for future, I think that

3:33:31it would be hard to justify these

3:33:34smaller lots moving east in this area.

3:33:37Um, but I do appreciate that you are,

3:33:41you know, considering that uh the

3:33:44closeness to the freeway and the barrier

3:33:46with your your neighbors. I know it's

3:33:48not the density that you want. Um, but

3:33:53even in some of the other neighborhoods,

3:33:54these 5 acre lots, they're proposing 40

3:33:56and 50 homes. So, I appreciate the 15

3:33:59and the reasonleness of this particular

3:34:02request. So,

3:34:05>> thank you. And with that or Commissioner

3:34:07Rogan, do you have a comment?

3:34:09>> It's the last abstension of the evening.

3:34:12Um, I'm an attorney for Clerk County.

3:34:14This project falls within the interlocal

3:34:16agreement between Clark County and the

3:34:18city of Las Vegas. Um, given the

3:34:20commitment that I have to my clients in

3:34:21the interest of that agreement, I will

3:34:23not be voting tonight.

3:34:26>> Noted. Um, so with that, I am prepared

3:34:28to make a motion. I will be making a

3:34:30motion to approve agenda item 2726-374.

3:34:34That is 27 A, 27B, 27 C, 27D, 27E

3:34:38subject to the amended staff conditions.

3:34:41And do you agree to the staff

3:34:42conditions?

3:34:43>> Yes, we do.

3:34:45>> Thank you.

3:34:52And also, if you could just maybe have a

3:34:54discussion with the council woman's

3:34:55office just regarding potentially paving

3:34:58or looking into that for the middle

3:35:00road.

3:35:00>> Um, have a coun have a discussion about

3:35:03what part? Uh just the road and the

3:35:04paving just to see if there is any

3:35:06potential for future connectivity.

3:35:08>> Yes.

3:35:11>> Motion carries.

3:35:12>> And now we'll move on to city council on

3:35:14November 4th.

3:35:15>> Thank you.

3:35:19>> And with that, I know that this is a

3:35:21long agenda item and I would like to

3:35:23give staff the opportunity for a quick

3:35:25break. So I will be doing a fivem minute

3:35:26recess and then we will come back. Thank

3:35:28you.

3:51:13request at the southwest corner of

3:51:15Washington Avenue and Lamb Boulevard

3:51:1728A26-0377

3:51:20SUP1 for proposed 6445T

3:51:22alcohol off- premise beer wine with a

3:51:25waiver of distance separation from a

3:51:26school. 28B26-0377

3:51:35development with waiverss of tile 19.08

3:51:37building orientation building facade and

3:51:39perimeter landscape buffer requirement.

3:51:41Staff, can I please get the report?

3:51:44Madame Chair, as demonstrated by the

3:51:46requested waiver for building

3:51:48orientation and a waiver of distance

3:51:50separation from a school for off-

3:51:52premise beer and wine sales, staff finds

3:51:55the proposed development is not

3:51:57compatible with the adjacent devel

3:51:59development or development in the area

3:52:01and staff recommends denial of both the

3:52:04special use permit and the site

3:52:05development plan review. Please note

3:52:08there is a blue sheetated staff report

3:52:10and revised plans in your supplemental

3:52:13packet. There is also additional

3:52:15documentation of support and protest

3:52:17received after publication. Thank you.

3:52:20>> Thank you. Please state your name for

3:52:22the record.

3:52:22>> Good evening. Jennifer Lazvich, 1980

3:52:24Festival Plaza Drive here tonight

3:52:26representing Quick Trip. The site is uh

3:52:29that we are discussing tonight sits on

3:52:31the uh southwest corner of Washington

3:52:35and Lamb Boulevard. Uh the site today

3:52:38has a vacant former pharmacy building

3:52:40that has been vacant for quite some

3:52:42time. I also do want to note that

3:52:44there's a bus shelter because I'll talk

3:52:46about that in a minute. Um the proposal

3:52:49in front of you uh is to take that

3:52:52building down. It will not be

3:52:53repurposed. It will be torn down and

3:52:56instead um a quick trip would go in its

3:52:58place. I want to note for the record

3:53:00this project does not include a car

3:53:02wash. This is only for a convenience

3:53:04store and gas pumps. The convenience

3:53:06store would sit in this area that is um

3:53:09yellow and the gas pumps would be closer

3:53:12to the corner of Lamb and Washington.

3:53:14Around the exterior we uh show

3:53:17landscaping. However, we have a couple

3:53:20of points where we have some utility

3:53:22boxes and therefore we don't have um the

3:53:26landscaping there. We are meeting the

3:53:27trees but we have some areas where um

3:53:30because of utility boxes we can't put in

3:53:32the trees. There's also that um bus stop

3:53:35that you can see on this particular

3:53:37location and that will remain. Um we are

3:53:41asking for the building orientation to

3:53:44be set as it is because uh particularly

3:53:46with gas pumps um typically people who

3:53:50are thinking about getting gas like to

3:53:52see if the pumps are open as they drive

3:53:54by. Um, in the code it would have had us

3:53:56reverse these so that the building would

3:53:58have been closer to the street and the

3:53:59pumps would have been on the interior.

3:54:01And so we're asking that's one of the

3:54:03waiverss that we're asking for is for

3:54:05building orientation. We did submit

3:54:07additional elevations to staff um to try

3:54:10to get that foursided architecture um or

3:54:14at least decorative elements that they

3:54:16were looking uh for. And I do have two

3:54:19additional conditions that I wanted to

3:54:21read into the record. First of all, the

3:54:24first one would be decorative wall

3:54:25lighting shall be added to all four

3:54:28building elevations. The intent behind

3:54:30that is to light this property up on all

3:54:33four sides but not be too bright because

3:54:36there is some residential to the north

3:54:38of us. Um so that's why we um call it

3:54:41decorative lighting. Uh shall be added

3:54:43on all four building elevations onto the

3:54:46building itself. And then we would also

3:54:48add a condition that says all trees

3:54:50shall consist of fast growing large

3:54:52shade trees with a minimum 3-in trunk

3:54:55calipiber measured 6 in above or 6 in

3:54:58from the base of the trunk in accordance

3:55:00with the Southern Nevada regional plant

3:55:02list. Uh the use of pine and palm trees

3:55:05shall be prohibited. And with that, I'd

3:55:07be happy to answer any questions.

3:55:10>> Thank you. This item has been noticed

3:55:11for public comment. Is there anyone who

3:55:12would like to speak at this time?

3:55:15Seeing none, I will be closing public

3:55:16comment and turning it over to members

3:55:18of the commission. Starting with

3:55:19Commissioner Schlopman.

3:55:20>> Thank you, Madam Chair. Um, Miss

3:55:22Lassovich, which I I'm looking at

3:55:25elevation here. Do you have the new

3:55:27elevation of the rear of the building?

3:55:29>> I don't know if I have the rear of the

3:55:31building. Let me see. Oh, yep. Maybe I

3:55:34do. I believe what we did, and this

3:55:36might be the old one, is that we added

3:55:40um the See this red kind of band along

3:55:43here? We brought that around. While this

3:55:45doesn't show it, um, we brought that

3:55:47around the back.

3:55:48>> Okay. Did you submit that to city staff?

3:55:50>> We did.

3:55:52>> Okay. I just don't see it in the the my

3:55:54supplemental.

3:55:55>> I'm sorry. And the other thing I was

3:55:56just told is that we also added windows

3:55:59on the back elevation, too.

3:56:01>> Okay. Um, so I guess a question for

3:56:04planning staff that was something that

3:56:06y'all did receive,

3:56:10>> Madame Chair. Yes, we did receive that.

3:56:12Let me look through our packet here.

3:56:14>> Okay. And while you're looking through

3:56:16the packet, uh did you

3:56:19um you said you're adding the lights on

3:56:21all four sides, including the rear?

3:56:24>> Yes.

3:56:24>> And are how are you going going to um

3:56:28shield that from the neighbors?

3:56:31>> Uh so my and I'm happy to amend the

3:56:34condition if it needs to be worded

3:56:36better. Um, but that was part of the

3:56:39reason why I chose the word decorative

3:56:41wall lighting. Uh, I did the intent is

3:56:45not to have wall lights that just are

3:56:47spotlights that light up. So, if we

3:56:50wanted to add um an additional sentence

3:56:52after that to say decorative wall

3:56:54lighting shall be added to all four

3:56:56building elevations and to include if

3:56:59you feel this is appropriate, shoe box

3:57:01covers to direct the light downward.

3:57:04something that just directs the light

3:57:05downward and not out towards especially

3:57:07the residential to the north.

3:57:12>> Yeah, but I don't see a stripe on the

3:57:14back of that building.

3:57:17So, um

3:57:28could you put this on the overhead?

3:57:37Is this what you submitted?

3:57:38>> Yes. So, let me show you. So, if we're

3:57:41looking at this and like this

3:57:43[clears throat] is what I'll say was

3:57:45submitted initially and then you take it

3:57:47to this. We added this window and this

3:57:50is the rear of the building. We added

3:57:52this faux window and this stripe to

3:57:54break up what that looks like.

3:57:56>> Can you put them side by side?

3:57:58>> Yes.

3:57:58>> Oh, okay.

3:58:01All right. That looks a lot better.

3:58:04Okay, I don't have any problems there.

3:58:07Um, and you know the with or with the

3:58:11orientation of of of the building, the

3:58:15landscaping. You said that there's a bus

3:58:18shelter right in front of those five or

3:58:20six cars.

3:58:23>> Yes.

3:58:25>> So, this shows you a picture of the bus

3:58:28shelter here. And so, um, we have this

3:58:32has got utility boxes.

3:58:35This has got utility boxes in this area.

3:58:37And then there's an easement area that

3:58:39runs along here. Um, and that bus

3:58:42shelter sits

3:58:44kind of in this area as well. And then

3:58:46this has a light pole in it. But that's

3:58:49the only place we don't have trees is if

3:58:51there is a utility box or an easement

3:58:54area that's not allowing us to have the

3:58:56trees there. Okay, that makes sense. Uh,

3:58:59the only other question I'll hear from

3:59:02our other fellow planning commissioners

3:59:03on their thoughts on alcohol um

3:59:08being sold within 100t of a school where

3:59:10400 ft's required and um

3:59:16I I don't know. I it it seems awful

3:59:18close to me, but does anybody else have

3:59:21any comments on that?

3:59:24Yeah. So, having worked on several sea

3:59:26store sites around town, um I know that

3:59:29Metro loves to work with um owners um

3:59:33and maybe there's a condition that can

3:59:36be put in that they put in their um

3:59:38their video cameras. I'm not sure what

3:59:40their what their program is called, but

3:59:42I know that they'd probably love to work

3:59:44with the site as well

3:59:46and just monitor activity.

3:59:53Yes, Melvich.

3:59:54>> Um I just wanted Yes, we would be happy

3:59:57to accept that condition to um work with

4:00:00Metro on um I I think the language might

4:00:03be work with um LVMPD

4:00:06on um security cameras or anything that

4:00:10they may ask for. The other thing I

4:00:12wanted to add though um addressing your

4:00:15comment about the concern to the

4:00:16proximity to the school. Um most I'll

4:00:20call them pharmacies. I won't call them

4:00:21out but the tip the pharmacy that was

4:00:23here you can kind of tell from what it

4:00:25looked like they've had alcohol sales on

4:00:27the inside as well. Um those are off-

4:00:29premise sales. In addition there's um a

4:00:31Green Valley grocery across the street

4:00:33that has the same. So just noting that.

4:00:36>> What is the uh Puro

4:00:39Academy that's across the street? What

4:00:41what age of of students attend that?

4:00:46>> I don't know. I'm sorry that I don't

4:00:48know.

4:00:49>> Is does anybody know if that's I like a

4:00:52college prep or or something? I I was

4:00:55driving east Las Vegas and seen

4:00:58something that said um something along

4:01:02those lines, but I don't know why we're

4:01:04looking looking at that. I don't know if

4:01:06Commissioner Rogan had any comment. I

4:01:07thought his light come on a second ago.

4:01:11Mr. Rogan,

4:01:12>> looks like it's a charter school.

4:01:14There's pictures of young children.

4:01:18>> You said no young children.

4:01:19>> No, there there's there's young

4:01:21children.

4:01:23>> Yeah, it's it's um

4:01:26pre kindergarten through fifth grade.

4:01:37And commissioner, I would note that this

4:01:39is this is beer wine, right? This is not

4:01:41full liquor.

4:01:42>> Correct.

4:01:43>> Okay.

4:01:44>> Right. I mean, I I have less of an issue

4:01:47that it's beer wine. I I did represent

4:01:50to to Miss Lazovich if it was full

4:01:53liquor. There would be no way that I'

4:01:54I'd get behind it. Um

4:01:59so, well, if there's no other comments,

4:02:03I'm going to go ahead and make a motion.

4:02:15All right. Uh on item number 28 um based

4:02:19on testimony tonight, I'm going to go

4:02:22ahead and

4:02:24Can we get that condition, Miss Edos? Um

4:02:28about working with LVMPD

4:02:33um for their security cameras.

4:02:36>> So Madam Chair, Seth Floyd for the

4:02:38record. I because that's an outside

4:02:41agency. I'd prefer to do that as

4:02:43direction to the applicant as opposed to

4:02:45condition because I'm not even quite

4:02:46sure what an enforcable condition on

4:02:48that would okay

4:02:49>> look like. [clears throat] But I think

4:02:50the applicant has heard that direction

4:02:52and knows the objective there.

4:02:56>> And Miss Levich, will you take that

4:02:58direction and

4:02:59>> absolutely

4:03:00>> and and work with that?

4:03:01>> Yes, absolutely. And I did want to ask

4:03:04if on the first condition about the

4:03:06decorative wall lighting shall be added

4:03:08to all four building elevations. Do you

4:03:10want to extend that to say with covers

4:03:14so that lights bel you know was

4:03:16something that or or um that directs the

4:03:19light downward? Would that be helpful?

4:03:23>> Yes. Maybe we can ask Miss Edos uh maybe

4:03:27something that doesn't allow the Shelby

4:03:29shielded or lighten shelby shielded. So

4:03:32the lightening does not spill over onto

4:03:34neighboring properties.

4:03:49And also um while she's doing that, I

4:03:54know you offered the condition about the

4:03:55larger trees.

4:03:57>> Yes. And um I think we can actually make

4:03:59those work in this location because this

4:04:01we don't have the tight utilities like

4:04:03we have in downtown. So uh we can I

4:04:07think we have that one queued up or I

4:04:09could just ask Jennifer Taylor to read

4:04:11that one out. She felt like could recite

4:04:12it.

4:04:15>> But I think those are actually in your

4:04:17revised landscape plan. Correct, Miss

4:04:19Lazovich?

4:04:20>> They are. But we Well, they are. But in

4:04:22working with staff, they asked that we

4:04:24add the condition that I read into the

4:04:26record. just because it's more specific.

4:04:29>> Yeah. Okay. Thank you. Thank you,

4:04:31Commissioner.

4:04:51>> Madame Chair, uh I think we have

4:04:53something crafted here. It would read,

4:04:55"Decorative wall lighting shall be added

4:04:57to all four building elevations. The

4:05:00lighting shall be directed downward as

4:05:03to not spill over into neighboring

4:05:05properties."

4:05:08>> Perfect. And can we read the the the

4:05:10tree condition?

4:05:13>> Uh, madame chair through you. All trees

4:05:15shall consist of fast growing large

4:05:18shade trees with a minimum 3-in trunk

4:05:21caliber measured 6 in from the base of

4:05:24the trunk in accordance with the

4:05:26Southern Nevada regional plant list. The

4:05:28use of pine and palm trees shall be

4:05:31prohibited.

4:05:32>> Thank you. And you agreed to those two

4:05:34edit conditions?

4:05:35>> Yes, we do.

4:05:36>> And all other conditions have approved.

4:05:38>> Yes.

4:05:38>> Chair three, your apologies. Would that

4:05:40go on to the SDR um 28B? with both those

4:05:43conditions.

4:05:45>> Madame chair through yes, that would be

4:05:47added to number 28B SDR1.

4:05:53>> All right, Madam Chair, I'll move to

4:05:54approve on item number 28 A and B with

4:05:58the addict conditions as read into the

4:06:00record by planning. The two added

4:06:03conditions

4:06:16I

4:06:18>> I

4:06:20>> motion carries

4:06:22>> and that is final action and let's

4:06:23appeal to the city clerk in 10 days.

4:06:25>> Thank you.

4:06:27>> Thank you. This brings us to agenda item

4:06:2829 26-0378

4:06:31applicant toll south LV LLC owner United

4:06:33States of America for possible action on

4:06:35the following land use and timeline

4:06:36project request on the north side of the

4:06:38Bradley Avenue alignment approximately

4:06:40660 ft west of Pulley Road 29A 26-378

4:06:44GPA 1 from PF public facility to ML

4:07:03gate that do not conform to tile 19.04

4:07:05complete street standards 29D 26-0378

4:07:18TMP1 Bradley soft shimmer for a proposed

4:07:2030 lot single single family residential

4:07:23subdivision amended to 29 lots. Staff,

4:07:25can I please get the report?

4:07:28>> Madame Chair, the proposed general plan

4:07:30designation and zoning designation are

4:07:32consistent with the lowdensity

4:07:34residential designation recommended by

4:07:36the Kyle Canyon special area plan. Staff

4:07:39therefore finds the proposed general

4:07:40plan amendment and resoning to be

4:07:42appropriate for the area. However, the

4:07:45requested variances of ungated private

4:07:47street standards, connectivity ratio,

4:07:50and perimeter walls have been determined

4:07:52to be self-imposed heart self-imposed

4:07:54hardships and therefore staff recommends

4:07:57denial of the variances and tenative map

4:08:00subject to conditions if approved. Staff

4:08:03also notes for the record that the

4:08:04number of proposed lots was reduced from

4:08:0730 which was advertised to 29 and there

4:08:11are conceptual elevations and floor

4:08:13plans in your supplemental packet.

4:08:15Please note there were additional there

4:08:17was additional documentation of support

4:08:19received after publication. Thank you.

4:08:25>> Thank you so much. Please state your

4:08:26name for the record.

4:08:27>> Good evening. Jennifer Lazovich, 1980

4:08:29Festival Plaza Drive here tonight on

4:08:30behalf of Toll Brothers. To the north of

4:08:33the site in green is Kyle Canyon and uh

4:08:37to the east of the site is Sheep

4:08:38Mountain Parkway/Shamber.

4:08:41This um description right here kind of

4:08:44shows you what's been approved somewhat

4:08:46recently around the site. Immediately to

4:08:49the west is a KB Homes development that

4:08:51was approved um on in September. And

4:08:54then south of the site is a project that

4:08:56was approved a while ago and you can

4:08:58start to see uh mapping and grading in

4:09:01there by Richmond American Homes. The

4:09:04green shows you where the Toll Brothers

4:09:06site is. This is the site plan that was

4:09:08initially filed with the application. We

4:09:11subsequently made a change as uh Steve

4:09:14noted for the record and instead of 30

4:09:16lots, we have 29 lots. and what you'll

4:09:19see the difference between the two. I'll

4:09:21do what Commissioner Schlottman had me

4:09:23do on the last item, a little bit of a

4:09:25side by side. Uh on the new plan, the

4:09:29lots on this east side got larger. We

4:09:32removed uh these lots in that area and

4:09:34made this open space uh bigger in that

4:09:38um common element D area. So that was

4:09:40kind of the shift when we lost the lot.

4:09:42That's what it changed. It really kind

4:09:44of changed the way that this looked on

4:09:46the east side.

4:09:48the um proposed project. I want to spend

4:09:51a just a second talking about amenities.

4:09:53We had had an amenity plan that I did

4:09:56discuss at our neighborhood meeting. Uh

4:09:58since that time, um the internal office

4:10:01for toll uh because we had originally

4:10:04talked about there being perhaps a tot

4:10:06lot. Um and at that at this time they

4:10:10kind of want to do a little bit more

4:10:11research on who their buyer pool is

4:10:13because if you don't get a lot of

4:10:15families with young children um it

4:10:17really isn't a helpful amenity to have

4:10:19in the community. So what I want to do

4:10:22is um continue to firm that up and then

4:10:25we will be uh providing an amenity plan

4:10:27as we move forward um that locks in what

4:10:30those amenities would be. I also want to

4:10:33just I said that I would show it

4:10:35although it's in your backup but I do

4:10:36want to show a couple of the conceptual

4:10:39elevations for this plan. There's um

4:10:42some modern farmhouse and some different

4:10:44elevations. Um but it is mixed in with

4:10:46like a modern Craftsman which you might

4:10:48think is more akin to what we typically

4:10:51see. Um and then we also have like a

4:10:53mid-century modern two-story option. So,

4:10:56um, just wanted to show you what some of

4:10:58the elevations are cuz they do look a

4:11:00little bit different than elevations,

4:11:02uh, that have come in out in this

4:11:04northwest area. So, with that, we would

4:11:06ask for your approval of the 29 lot, uh,

4:11:10subdivision, and I'd be happy to answer

4:11:11any questions.

4:11:14>> Thank you. This item has been noticed

4:11:15for public comment. Is there anyone who

4:11:16would like to speak at this time?

4:11:19>> Seeing none, I'll be closing public

4:11:21comment, turning over to members of the

4:11:22commission, starting with Commissioner

4:11:23Taylor.

4:11:24>> Uh, thank you, Madam Chair. Thank you,

4:11:26Miss Lazovich. Um, and I have no problem

4:11:28with continuing to work on the amenities

4:11:30plan and I know you'll like keep me

4:11:31looped in. So, um, appreciate that

4:11:33continued effort.

4:11:34>> Just quickly, I know you've probably

4:11:36answered this, but just one last check.

4:11:39Um, we are going to have at least 20

4:11:41foot driveways with rolled curbs.

4:11:43>> Yes. Okay.

4:11:44>> That was submitted that way.

4:11:45>> Okay. Thank you. Um, yeah, I um I'm

4:11:50going to look forward to see what the

4:11:51market does with those different uh

4:11:54elevations. So, um, if I don't have any

4:11:58other questions or concerns, if anyone

4:11:59else does. Okay. Then I am prepared to

4:12:03make a motion on, um, item 26

4:12:080378.

4:12:10A um, so like item 29A

4:12:14through E for um, application 26-378,

4:12:18I'll make a motion to approve subject to

4:12:19all conditions. And you agree to all

4:12:21conditions?

4:12:22>> Yes, we do.

4:12:23>> Thank you.

4:12:29Motion carries

4:12:30>> and that will move on to city council on

4:12:32November 4th.

4:12:33>> Thank you.

4:13:25proposed 32 lot single family

4:13:26residential subdivision 5.36 acres.

4:13:29Staff, can I please get the report?

4:13:32>> Madam Chair, the proposed general plan

4:13:34designation and zoning designation are

4:13:36consistent with residential densities in

4:13:38the area and therefore staff recommends

4:13:40approval of those requests. However, the

4:13:42requested variances of ungated private

4:13:45streets uh private street standards,

4:13:48connectivity ratio, and perimeter wall

4:13:50heights have been determined to be

4:13:51self-imposed hardships. And therefore,

4:13:53staff recommends denial of the variances

4:13:55and tenative map subject to conditions

4:13:58if approved. And staff notes for the

4:14:00record that the number of proposed lots

4:14:02was reduced from 32, which was the

4:14:04advertised number, to 31. And there are

4:14:07conceptual elevations and floor plans in

4:14:09your supplemental packet.

4:14:12Uh, please note there was additional

4:14:14documentation of support received after

4:14:16publication. Thank you.

4:14:18>> Thank you. Please state your name for

4:14:19the record.

4:14:19>> Good evening. Jennifer Lazvich, 1980

4:14:21Festival Plaza Drive, uh, here tonight

4:14:23on behalf of Toll Brothers. Uh, I just

4:14:26want to know for the record, this is

4:14:27part of a a BLM sale. And so although

4:14:30the parcel itself was larger, uh, all

4:14:33that is before you, uh, tonight is this

4:14:355 acre site. What we just talked about

4:14:38was over on the west side of Sheep

4:14:40Mountain. uh Shamber Parkway and now

4:14:42we're on the east side. Cow Canyon sits

4:14:44to the north. This is Sheep Mountain

4:14:46Parkway here and this is where the site

4:14:48is located to other existing

4:14:51residential. This was the site plan um

4:14:54that showed 32 lots presented at the

4:14:56neighborhood meeting again to show you

4:14:58the side by side. Um where we really

4:15:01made the change

4:15:03is along that east boundary. As you can

4:15:06see on this side, we had two lots um

4:15:08fronting on to Radley. Fronting on to

4:15:10Radley is consistent with the

4:15:12development to the east of this. They

4:15:14have also homes that front onto Radley,

4:15:16but the change we made is on our east

4:15:18side. We lost one lot and instead of

4:15:20having two lots facing here, we

4:15:23basically got additional open space up

4:15:25here in the um area to the north. Uh

4:15:27just like the last item, uh similar

4:15:30concept, we are going to continue

4:15:32working on the um amenities for this and

4:15:36we'll have those in place prior to city

4:15:38council. And then um the elevations are

4:15:41again similar to what I showed uh

4:15:43before. Um these are conceptual

4:15:46elevations with again some that are a

4:15:48little bit different than what you've

4:15:49seen out there. And we will allow the

4:15:51buyer to select which ones they want.

4:15:57Thank you. This item has been no for

4:15:59public comment. Is there anyone who

4:16:00would like to speak at this time?

4:16:03Seeing Seeing none, I will be closing

4:16:05public comment and turning over to

4:16:06members of the commission. Starting with

4:16:08Commissioner Taylor.

4:16:09>> Thank you, Madam Chair. Um, just echo

4:16:12same comments from item 29 since this is

4:16:14so similar, same applicant, slightly

4:16:16different location. Um,

4:16:19thank you for continuing to work on the

4:16:21amenity plan. I'm prepared to make a

4:16:23motion unless anyone has any comments.

4:16:25>> Please do.

4:16:26>> Okay. Thank you so much. On item number

4:16:2830, uh, 26-0379

4:16:31and 30 A through 30E, I'd like to make a

4:16:34motion to approve subject to all

4:16:36conditions. And you agree to all

4:16:37conditions, Miss Lazovich?

4:16:38>> Yes, we do.

4:16:39>> Okay. Thank you.

4:16:45>> Motion carries.

4:16:47>> And that will move on to city council on

4:16:48November 4th.

4:16:49>> Thank you.

4:16:52This brings us to agenda item 3226-0385

4:16:56applicant owner Forest Hill Family Trust

4:16:58for possible action on the following

4:16:59land use entitlement project requests at

4:17:30complete street standards. We did strike

4:17:3332E and then 32F26-0385

4:17:37TMP1 Centennial and Kevin for a proposed

4:17:4018 lot single family residential

4:17:42subdivision with a waiver of perimeter

4:17:43landscape buffer requirements. Staff,

4:17:45can I please get the report?

4:17:47>> Yes, madam chair. While the proposed

4:17:48Senate map provides much needed housing

4:17:50stock, the overall development requires

4:17:52variances to address connectivity and a

4:17:54lack of off-site improvements which

4:17:56staff has determined are self-imposed

4:17:58hardships. As such, staff recommends

4:18:00denial of the tenative map and

4:18:02variances. Please note, additional

4:18:04documentation of protests has been

4:18:06submitted after publication. Thank you.

4:18:09>> Thank you. Please state your name for

4:18:10the record.

4:18:11>> Thank you. Jennifer Lazvich, 1980

4:18:13Festival Plaza Drive. And for those of

4:18:15you who are tired of hearing my voice,

4:18:16you'll be happy to know this is my last

4:18:18item for the night. Uh this is the site

4:18:21here in green. This is an interesting

4:18:23area. There's combinations of city

4:18:25property over here and county property

4:18:27over here. So when I talk through it, um

4:18:30there will be um parts where I point out

4:18:32what's in the county and what's in the

4:18:34city. The site itself is in green. Uh

4:18:36here's the the major uh off-ramp coming

4:18:39off the 215. This is Durango. And the

4:18:42street immediately to the north of us is

4:18:44Centennial. Immediately to the north of

4:18:47us, there is an existing Cube Smart

4:18:49Storage and a shopping center that wraps

4:18:51around that. I'm just going to kind of

4:18:53go this way. Uh on the other corner of

4:18:56Centennial and Durango is a shopping

4:18:57center. As you come down to the south,

4:18:59there's a gas station. And as you wind

4:19:02over to what's immediately next to us,

4:19:04that property is located in the county.

4:19:06and the county has master planned both

4:19:09the vacant piece of property as well as

4:19:11where the uh homes are as up to eight

4:19:14units to the acre. Um the stuff around

4:19:17us to the south and to the west is uh uh

4:19:22two units to the acre. There is a little

4:19:24band that's a little bit more than that,

4:19:26but for the most part it's two units to

4:19:28the acre. And then diagonally across

4:19:30from us is again something that's um in

4:19:33the county and it was up to eight units

4:19:35to the acre developed. So the site that

4:19:37we have in front of you right now is

4:19:40proposing to do 18 single family

4:19:43detached residential lots. Um as I as

4:19:47just a reminder this area right here is

4:19:49master plan for up to eight units to the

4:19:51acre. Uh the site itself, the density

4:19:54comes in at just four units to the acre

4:19:56and as you keep moving west, you go to

4:19:58two units to the acre. So you have um an

4:20:01eight, a four, and then a two. From a

4:20:03transition standpoint, I I think um

4:20:07there could be an argument made that

4:20:09this hard corner that's vacant and sits

4:20:11right on Centennial and Durango with

4:20:14commercial on the other three sides. I

4:20:16think that there is a decent chance that

4:20:18could um come through as something other

4:20:21than residential and it could be some

4:20:22kind of commercial. Uh if that's the

4:20:24case, again, we're looking at what is

4:20:27the transition over here. So, we're

4:20:29proposing 18 lots. The ex the access to

4:20:34and from the site would be out onto

4:20:36Centennial. There was a neighborhood

4:20:38meeting held about a year ago um on this

4:20:41site and there was a lot of feedback

4:20:43given and and consistently the neighbors

4:20:45have asked for less homes here. So that

4:20:47has been absolutely consistent. But one

4:20:49of the things at that particular time is

4:20:51that a different access point was shown

4:20:54um and it was shown out to Kevin. So

4:20:56when we re um kind of filed this and got

4:20:59this going again and we did our

4:21:00neighborhood meeting, uh that was one

4:21:02thing that we wanted to try to achieve,

4:21:04which is um we understand the density.

4:21:07We're going to agree to disagree on

4:21:08that. That's fair, but um we really

4:21:11tried our hardest to make sure that the

4:21:14development itself exited onto

4:21:16Centennial Parkway. Um so that's why you

4:21:19particularly have that shown that way as

4:21:21opposed to access onto Regina or access

4:21:23onto Kevin. We do have waiverss of

4:21:26offsites if you drive this area, you

4:21:28know, not on Centennial Parkway itself,

4:21:30that will have full off-site

4:21:32improvements, including uh sidewalks.

4:21:35But when you get onto Kevin and then

4:21:37onto Regina, that whole area is fairly

4:21:39consistent with not having any

4:21:40sidewalks, street lights, curb, or

4:21:42gutter. So, we were asking or are asking

4:21:45for there to be um uh waiver variance to

4:21:49not allow for those full offsites on

4:21:51Regina and also on um excuse me, onto

4:21:55Kevin or onto Regina. When we did the

4:21:58neighborhood meeting, um again, I won't

4:22:00speak for them. They're here to speak

4:22:01for themselves. they it a lot of what

4:22:04they asked for was to reduce the

4:22:06density, but there were other things

4:22:08that were talked about and there were

4:22:09other things that um I think as an

4:22:12applicant we can agree to on this

4:22:14project and so I want to read those into

4:22:17the record. The first is that the

4:22:19emergency access gate on the south end

4:22:21of the property of the excuse me of the

4:22:23project shall only be used for emergency

4:22:26vehicles only. passenger vehicles are

4:22:29prohibited and that would be right in

4:22:30this area right here onto Regina Avenue.

4:22:34Next is we would add a condition that

4:22:36says no pedestrian gate onto Regina

4:22:38Avenue. Um again, we're kind of pushing

4:22:41everybody really both in terms of

4:22:43pedestrians and cars to go north to

4:22:46Centennial. So that would be the next

4:22:48condition. Uh the other condition would

4:22:50be no street lights on the internal

4:22:52street. Obviously, we're not asking to

4:22:54put them in either on s on Kevin or

4:22:59Regina. There will be street lights on

4:23:01Centennial. And then, um, the next

4:23:04condition would read, "Each home shall

4:23:06have a minimum of two coach lights on

4:23:08the front exterior of homes when

4:23:12constructed by the builder. Lighting

4:23:14shall be warm white, cool, or bright

4:23:16white lighting is prohibited.

4:23:18We are proposing these to be two-story

4:23:20homes." So, another condition that was

4:23:22requested was uh rooftop decks are

4:23:25hereby prohibited. And then finally, as

4:23:29I mentioned, um we

4:23:32when you look at Okay, let's start over

4:23:35here. This is the piece that's master

4:23:36plan for eight units to the acre that

4:23:38very well could go commercial. This

4:23:40particular culdesac has um twostory

4:23:43homes, but when you go south of Regina

4:23:45and you go um west of Kevin, at least

4:23:49those immediate homes and a lot of the

4:23:51homes over there are singlestory. So the

4:23:54final condition that we would ask you to

4:23:55consider is that all lots on the west

4:23:58boundary and the south boundary come up

4:24:00after the public hearing is closed.

4:24:03Thank you so much. At this time, this

4:24:04item has been noticed for public

4:24:06comment. Is there anyone in the audience

4:24:07who would like to speak at this time?

4:24:09Please come forward to the mic and state

4:24:11your name for the record.

4:24:17>> You do a great job.

4:24:20>> She's pretty amazing. Um so Brian

4:24:22Chamberlain, 8985 Silent Brook. I live

4:24:26just on the next culde-sac south from

4:24:28this proposed uh 18 home um development.

4:24:32Um

4:24:34it it doesn't matter how much lipstick

4:24:35you put on a pig, it's still a pig. And

4:24:38when you put 18 homes on 4.6 acres, it's

4:24:42a pig. When you put it next to all the

4:24:43other culde-sacs around there, we have a

4:24:45unique little area there, right? The the

4:24:48water district is just south. And uh and

4:24:50we have Centennial on the north. And

4:24:53above Centennial, they've they've um

4:24:57messed up that housing. It's very high

4:24:58density. You feel like you're in a

4:25:00canyon when you're walking on those

4:25:01streets. I have plenty of friends who

4:25:02live there, but um I don't choose to

4:25:05live there. years ago. Uh, let's see.

4:25:07Commissioner Walters, you you said you

4:25:09live in the rural preservation. It is

4:25:11absolutely the jewel of the Northwest.

4:25:13For those of you who haven't visited,

4:25:14please come visit me in my home. It's

4:25:17awesome. I can see the strip. Dark skies

4:25:20at night. It's just beautiful. I love

4:25:21living in Las Vegas, but only because I

4:25:24live there. Anywhere else. I I chose not

4:25:27to live in Summerland years ago. Opted

4:25:30out of that because there was no

4:25:31freedom. Don't mess up the rural

4:25:33preservation. So, this proposal, we know

4:25:36homes are coming. We're actually glad

4:25:37for that. We really appreciate what what

4:25:40when what when Jennifer proposed it was

4:25:41coming off of Centennial instead of

4:25:42coming off of Kevin or Regina. That was

4:25:45absolutely great with all the neighbors

4:25:46that are around there. I'm the president

4:25:47of my HOA, by the way, in that little

4:25:49area. Um, and so, so everyone was pretty

4:25:52happy about that. And the singlestory

4:25:54homes, I think that's a must because all

4:25:56of the culde-sacs around there, they're

4:25:58only two twostory homes on the on the

4:26:01west and on the south. And so it would

4:26:03be very funny to have these two-story

4:26:05homes. Um, and we don't want the canyon

4:26:07effect there. So, um, anyway, she's done

4:26:10a really good job and with the the owner

4:26:13of making it so that most of our

4:26:15concerns are realized, um, or

4:26:18recognized. Um, but the density is the

4:26:21problem there. And the reason that we

4:26:22love the Northwest, those of us who live

4:26:24there, and if you've heard a couple

4:26:25people tonight already get emotional

4:26:26about it, which seems ridiculous, but if

4:26:29you've lived there, you know it's just

4:26:31fantastic. and it's because of the

4:26:33density. So, I would urge you to deny

4:26:36this. Tell them to come back when they

4:26:37can get it to 14 homes or less and then

4:26:40it would be acceptable. Thank you.

4:26:51My name is Steve Sadu, SiHu 8845 Steven

4:26:55Chase Court. Uh we live to excuse me

4:26:59[clears throat] we live on the street to

4:27:00the south which is all part of the rural

4:27:04community. They're all halfacre lots.

4:27:07Also to the west they are also all

4:27:11halfacre lots. There are no street

4:27:13lights, no curbs, no gutters.

4:27:16We moved out there 30 years ago along

4:27:18with most of the people to have the

4:27:21peace, the quiet, the darkness

4:27:24and not all the hustle bustle that's

4:27:28going on in the city. This 4 and a half

4:27:31acres they want to put 18 houses on.

4:27:36[clears throat]

4:27:36Why is I I don't understand why is it

4:27:40just for the money? Why? Why can't it

4:27:43stay since it's right next to the the

4:27:46preserve? Why can't it stay in

4:27:49[clears throat] the 10 to 12 to 14

4:27:52house? Why does it have to go to 18? Why

4:27:55does it have to be so tightly packed? I

4:27:59I don't understand.

4:28:04Thank you.

4:28:15My name is Sky Marsh and I'm at 8850

4:28:19Steven Chase Court, which you will

4:28:21notice is right behind this lot.

4:28:25been sitting here all night listening to

4:28:27this and thinking how cool it would be

4:28:29if we could have all gone home at 9,

4:28:32which would have been really easy had

4:28:33you guys stuck to the rural preservation

4:28:36for the last few years. But you haven't.

4:28:39You let them come in and sneak in as

4:28:41many homes as they could on these lots.

4:28:43And now we're here fighting it out every

4:28:46single stinking time. If you had set the

4:28:49president set the precedent and said,

4:28:52"Hey, no, this is rural preservation.

4:28:53and this is what we wanted. This is what

4:28:55we put into effect.

4:28:58People would have stopped asking. But

4:29:00like a kid, they keep coming back and

4:29:02going, "Mom, I want a pony. Mom, I want

4:29:04a pony. I want to put 18 homes, twotory

4:29:06homes in a neighborhood where it's all

4:29:09one story. I don't want that in my

4:29:11backyard. I've lived in this city for

4:29:13over 30 years. We've went from an

4:29:15apartment up to the property we're at

4:29:18now, which is over a half an acre.

4:29:20We deliberately chose to live in a rural

4:29:24preservation area. And you guys are

4:29:26coming in and going, "Well, the money's

4:29:28good. We're just going to change

4:29:29whatever." I've been watching you guys,

4:29:31watching me, shaking my head because it

4:29:33seems like you don't care. Nobody cares

4:29:36because it's not your backyard. Please

4:29:38don't let them jack up my backyard. Say

4:29:42no to this. Thank you.

4:29:49Thank you. Um, good evening again,

4:29:52Bridget Salvi, uh, representative,

4:29:54Northwest Rural Preservation

4:29:56Association. Um, again, it's the

4:29:59density. It's always the density.

4:30:02This is a hard parcel because of where

4:30:04it's positioned next to Durango and all

4:30:07the commercial that's around it. But,

4:30:10uh, we even just seen other parcels

4:30:13closer to the 215 that had 15 lots. So,

4:30:18there's no named builder that's been

4:30:20presented. So, the neighbors have no

4:30:22idea what quality or what kind of uh

4:30:26product they're going to see. Uh the

4:30:30single stories, that's great that

4:30:32they're going to put single stories on a

4:30:33wrap on the west side and on the south

4:30:35side, but 18 is still unacceptable.

4:30:40Um

4:30:42to say that one parcel on the corner

4:30:44could be commercial, but is zoned for up

4:30:46to eight dwelling units. This section is

4:30:48going to be four uh dwelling units per

4:30:51acre, and that section over there is two

4:30:53dwelling units per acre. So therefore,

4:30:54we're transitional.

4:30:58Sure on numbers on its face, but let's

4:31:02look at the homeowners that are there.

4:31:04Let's consider the fact that these

4:31:07people have invested their hard-earned

4:31:09equity to, like she said, from an

4:31:12apartment. Wow. From an apartment to get

4:31:14into a halfacre or just little over a

4:31:16halfacre, that's scratching pennies to

4:31:20get a home that they wanted to call

4:31:23their forever home. And then to see this

4:31:25go in next to it. Density is everything.

4:31:28Let's drop this number from 18.

4:31:31Let's find out who the builder is. So,

4:31:34see what the product looks like and we

4:31:37can do better. You can do better for

4:31:39this neighborhood and for these people

4:31:41that have their hard-earned savings

4:31:43right here. This is not rocket science.

4:31:46This is something that can be more

4:31:49amendable to the neighborhood. Let's

4:31:52drop it from 18 and get it back down to

4:31:54a number that's more acceptable for this

4:31:56neighborhood that is older, that is half

4:31:59acres all the way around it. Thank you.

4:32:02Please deny.

4:32:09Seeing no one else,

4:32:12seeing no one else who would give

4:32:13comment, I'll be closing public comment

4:32:15at this time and I'll allow the

4:32:17applicant to address some of the

4:32:19concerns.

4:32:24Um, but I would say that I do certainly

4:32:26appreciate converting the two stories

4:32:28into the one stories for that buffer.

4:32:30Um, I understand the com the the overall

4:32:33concern regarding the density and um,

4:32:36Miss Lazovich, I I don't know if there

4:32:38is any wiggle room in terms of this

4:32:39project with the amount of lots. I know

4:32:42that we do have some time as well. This

4:32:44is an item that will be going to city

4:32:46council, but just didn't know if you

4:32:48have any comments.

4:32:49When we did our neighborhood meeting, I

4:32:51was very upfront about that that where I

4:32:54didn't have wiggle room was on the lots.

4:32:56So, it's why I've tried to do the other

4:32:58things, but I respect where they are

4:33:00coming from. In terms of the density, I

4:33:02would just simply say this is, and I

4:33:04think somebody else said it, this is a

4:33:06tricky spot. If you look at what's to

4:33:08the north of us, there's residential

4:33:10diagonal is developed eight units to the

4:33:12acre. There is no way this goes

4:33:15something like halfacre, four lot um

4:33:17culde-sac. So it is going to be

4:33:19something fairly intense whether that's

4:33:21intensity in terms of number of units

4:33:24because they can put this pro uh this

4:33:26this these two parcels together or it's

4:33:28just simply something commercial. The

4:33:31question is what it what transitions

4:33:33from this to this and I would stand by

4:33:37um 8 to 4 to 2 is a good transition

4:33:40along with the conditions that we have

4:33:42added.

4:33:46>> Thank you so much. Are there any

4:33:47comments from any member of the

4:33:48commission?

4:33:50Commissioner Taylor.

4:33:52>> Um, thank you. So, a couple things. Um,

4:33:57I am incredibly empathetic to the

4:34:00neighbors because where I live, I I've

4:34:03lived up there for 25 years. And it was

4:34:06while I was not in an R&P area, I was

4:34:09like this the first batch of houses that

4:34:11came in after the R&P. And I moved up

4:34:14there for the same reasons you guys did,

4:34:15even though I was in a subdivision. And

4:34:17then what got developed around me was

4:34:20four times as dense.

4:34:24The the challenge that I see is that

4:34:27this is not four times as dense. It is

4:34:30it is more dense, but it is a quirky

4:34:34corner. And the the thing that I am now

4:34:36struggling with is as I look at this,

4:34:39you're trying to get people to enter and

4:34:40exit off Centennial. And I I don't live

4:34:42that far from here, right? Like I'm up

4:34:44and down Durango and Centennial all the

4:34:46time. And that makes me very concerned

4:34:49for something's going to get built

4:34:51there. Something's going to get

4:34:52developed there. And I appreciate that

4:34:56Miss Lazovich has tried to blend it as

4:34:59much as possible. And again, I'm totally

4:35:01empathetic. Um but now, Miss Lazovich,

4:35:04my concern is the safety coming in and

4:35:06out of Centennial. And I know that you

4:35:08did that to to

4:35:11support the concerns of the neighbors,

4:35:13but I'm just wondering what ends up

4:35:16happening. Oh, and also I just wanted to

4:35:17say too, like yes, I know that these are

4:35:20quiet rural areas, but you're so close

4:35:22to density across Centennial. You're

4:35:25right across from a commercial

4:35:26subdivision.

4:35:28um you're right off Centennial and it's

4:35:30not

4:35:32it's you know every rural neighborhood

4:35:34has kind of its own character and its

4:35:35own quirkiness and its own conditions

4:35:38and so

4:35:41this may feel too dense to you but

4:35:43something else may come in that is going

4:35:44to be more dense there may not be a

4:35:46transition so I just you know think

4:35:49about that um and I'm not trying to sort

4:35:52of finger wag because again I I do feel

4:35:56empathetic to neighbors that move into

4:35:57R&Ps and have development come next to

4:35:59them. So anyway, Mazvich, like have you

4:36:02looked at any of the safety issues

4:36:04coming in and out of Centennial from

4:36:07this

4:36:08subdivision because it's a really busy

4:36:11intersection right there

4:36:13>> and it's like right next to the

4:36:15intersection.

4:36:16>> It is a busy intersection. And I think a

4:36:18couple things I might um defer to public

4:36:20works who loves to be called on the spot

4:36:23with anything that we've talked about

4:36:25tonight, but I was told that there is

4:36:28some type of improvement project that is

4:36:31coming down Centennial because right now

4:36:34if you drive it,

4:36:36it feels like a busy road that's not

4:36:38fully developed, which I think also

4:36:40causes some um conflict. And so I think

4:36:44that it's not just my piece which we

4:36:46know development puts in development or

4:36:48puts in streets but it and I look over

4:36:51to public works to confirm but I think

4:36:53that there is a major uh widening

4:36:56project so to speak fully improved

4:36:58project coming down Centennial that'll

4:37:00widen it all the way. So when that road

4:37:03gets fully improved on both sides um

4:37:06from our perspective no we don't see it

4:37:09as um a concern. We also early on

4:37:12because we knew the neighbors didn't

4:37:13want access on to Kevin or Regina, we

4:37:16did talk to public works about that,

4:37:18we're not on the hard corner so we have

4:37:20enough separation and we're in between

4:37:22these two driveways. So, we think it's

4:37:24the right thing to do. And I mean,

4:37:26again, I'm trying to be responsive. I

4:37:27know that the density is their biggest

4:37:29thing, but I'm also trying to be

4:37:31responsive to the other issues that

4:37:34they've raised.

4:37:35>> Okay. And then my other question is, do

4:37:37you

4:37:38have a developer that you're

4:37:41>> Yes, they they are in conversation with

4:37:43develop I cannot say who they are

4:37:44because they haven't I don't want to say

4:37:46a name and if the contract doesn't go

4:37:47through. They are in conversations with

4:37:50builders who who build in this area who

4:37:53are known um it's a national builder uh

4:37:57but they just haven't signed the

4:37:58contract yet. So that's why I can't

4:38:00disclose who it is.

4:38:01>> No, no, no. I think it's helpful just to

4:38:02hear that it is a national builder. So

4:38:04Okay. Thank you.

4:38:08Commissioner Rogan,

4:38:09>> I just have a question for staff. When I

4:38:11was looking at this staff report, it was

4:38:13interesting to me because you were

4:38:16supporting the general plan amendment

4:38:18from desert rural density to low density

4:38:21residential, but you were not supporting

4:38:22the zoning. And the reason you gave for

4:38:24that was the zoning district development

4:38:26standards do not align with the existing

4:38:28large lot development in the vicinity. I

4:38:30think the only difference between the DR

4:38:33um uh master plan uh area and low

4:38:38density residential is that it allows

4:38:40for um RD zoning and R1 zoning. So are

4:38:43you telling me that RD zoning might have

4:38:46been appropriate but R1 is not

4:38:48appropriate? You're nodding your head.

4:38:49Yes,

4:38:51>> Madame Chair through you. Yes. Um RD

4:38:56would have been our preferred

4:38:58uh zoning district on this particular

4:39:01lot.

4:39:03>> Okay. And that's essentially quarter

4:39:05acre lots, right?

4:39:07>> Uh Madam Chair, through you. Yes.

4:39:09Minimum 10,000 square foot lots.

4:39:12>> Thank you.

4:39:19>> Thank you so much. So with that, while I

4:39:22know once again that there is there is

4:39:25heartburn over the density, I do

4:39:27appreciate the work that you have done

4:39:28for changing the plan, having the buffer

4:39:31of the one stories. And so with that,

4:39:34unless there are any other comments,

4:39:35Commissioner Walters.

4:39:36>> Yeah, I have comments. I just want to

4:39:38echo the concerns of Commissioner Taylor

4:39:41because I I go to this intersection

4:39:45often. The um shopping center across the

4:39:48street that on Centennial that this

4:39:51would empty into is sometimes impossible

4:39:54to come out and even turn left. And so,

4:39:58you know, I just I hear the residents um

4:40:02and and the roads uh around, but those

4:40:05are residential roads. And I think this

4:40:07is a major safety concern for a major

4:40:09intersection that has a lot of potential

4:40:11commercial development that's going to

4:40:14be along Durango in there. Um

4:40:18problems even turning left into that

4:40:20neighborhood. You you can't even take

4:40:22Durango to you have to go all the way

4:40:24down to Tropical to get around. It's I

4:40:28think this is a a really large issue for

4:40:31um traffic and safety at that particular

4:40:34intersection which is also a major

4:40:37feeder into

4:40:39um as an on-ramp right there the next

4:40:42block on Durango. Um, and so I think

4:40:47unless this project for me, unless this

4:40:50project feeds into the residential

4:40:51roads, um, it it's not something that I

4:40:55would be willing to support at this

4:40:56time. So,

4:40:58>> Madame Chair, if I may, we do have a

4:41:01condition of approval that is going to

4:41:03limit the um the exit and entry from

4:41:07this neighborhood. They are going to be

4:41:09limited to right in and right out only.

4:41:12and the applicant is being instructed to

4:41:15work with public works and they will

4:41:18most likely be required to install a

4:41:20median that will

4:41:24um not allow that lefthand turn. So that

4:41:27will force the residents they're either

4:41:30going to have to go, you know, right in

4:41:32right out only. So, they may have to

4:41:35circle the block or find workarounds,

4:41:38but they will not be able to make that

4:41:40lefthand

4:41:42left-hand movement out of this

4:41:44particular neighborhood if approved.

4:41:46>> Um, I I appreciate that knowledge. That

4:41:49makes me even more weary of this project

4:41:52because there there's no way to get into

4:41:56the neighborhood without unless you make

4:41:58a right-hand turn, which means you're

4:42:01coming from off the freeway from

4:42:04all the all the way to Walapai or you're

4:42:09making U-turns on Centennial somewhere.

4:42:12It's um I think it's really a

4:42:14problematic a seriously problematic

4:42:18traffic issue uh if the neighborhood

4:42:21does not enter and exit onto the

4:42:24residential roads and away from

4:42:25Centennial. So,

4:42:27>> Commissioner Taylor,

4:42:30>> I I think Commissioner Walters kind of

4:42:32covered it, but Miss Ed, if you know if

4:42:35there it's right in right out,

4:42:37do you know where the U-turns are? Do

4:42:40you know where they can actually access?

4:42:41Because I I feel like based on my

4:42:43knowledge of the neighborhood, it is a

4:42:45pretty decent

4:42:47hall down to get to be able to go west

4:42:51if you've started east or be able to go,

4:42:54you know, into the neighborhood if

4:42:55you're heading west.

4:42:57>> So, you don't even need I mean, you

4:42:59don't need to look it up. I think I

4:43:00think my colleague um pretty much

4:43:03[clears throat] expressed the concern,

4:43:04but

4:43:06yeah, it's it's just it's a challenge

4:43:08and I understand that you were trying to

4:43:09balance neighbor needs with um with the

4:43:12development, but that's my biggest

4:43:15concern now.

4:43:17>> Commissioner Shman,

4:43:18>> yes, Madam Chair, through you. I I do

4:43:21have a little bit of concern with the

4:43:23density now looking at this closer as

4:43:26compared to the uh the neighboring

4:43:28properties, but that's just my opinion.

4:43:30And I do have a problem with the um

4:43:33condition number eight that says sign a

4:43:35covenant run with the land for possible

4:43:37future installation of half streetet

4:43:39improvements. All that's doing is

4:43:41putting the half streetet improvements

4:43:44onto a future homeowner uh association,

4:43:47which they're going to have to pay for.

4:43:49and the developer can just walk away

4:43:51from it. Plus, they are only

4:43:54contributing up to 50% of the street

4:43:55light. So, um I think there's things

4:43:58that would still need to be worked on

4:43:59for me to support this project. Thank

4:44:01you,

4:44:03>> Commissioner Rogan.

4:44:05>> So, I I think that looking at the

4:44:07density, you know, I was I was on the

4:44:08fence about this, but it was going on to

4:44:10Centennial, but now not having seen that

4:44:14condition about right turn only,

4:44:17the whole project doesn't make sense.

4:44:18the the purpose of having the access on

4:44:20Centennial was to avoid all of these

4:44:23cars going into that neighborhood, but

4:44:25they're going to be going into that

4:44:26neighborhood anyway to make the turns

4:44:28that make the turning movement. So,

4:44:32I I don't know. I'm I'm I'm thinking

4:44:34through these comments, too. And it

4:44:35might be best to to maybe take a break

4:44:38on this and maybe talk to your client

4:44:40again about something a little bit less

4:44:42than R1. And if that means RD and and

4:44:47having access into the neighborhood,

4:44:49that might be appropriate as well if it

4:44:51is less dense than R1. I mean, I think

4:44:54that, you know, normally this is

4:44:56something that I I wouldn't that I that

4:44:59I probably would support, but that right

4:45:01turning movement with the right turn

4:45:03only is is a hangup for me. Now,

4:45:06>> would you be open to a bang for 30 days?

4:45:08>> Not for the reason of losing any lots.

4:45:11So all I would be doing is is looking to

4:45:13see if there was a way to reverse it

4:45:16which means I erase all of those

4:45:17conditions maybe to put it to everything

4:45:20coming because you would just sort of

4:45:21flip

4:45:23instead of having this design you

4:45:25reverse it and you have the culde-sac up

4:45:29here and an entry off of Regina.

4:45:33But I wouldn't be losing any lots.

4:46:09Fortunately, at this time, I do think

4:46:10that I will be making a motion to obey

4:46:13for 30 days. I will meet with you and

4:46:15talk as well as um we can do outreach to

4:46:18the residents as well, but I do think

4:46:19that there's just a few things to tweak.

4:46:22I understand um the lot size barrier,

4:46:25but I just think that we need an

4:46:28additional 30 days on this item. So, no

4:46:31problem.

4:46:31>> With that, I'll be making a motion to

4:46:33obey for 30 days until the November

4:46:3613th

4:46:38>> 10th

4:46:39>> November 10th planning commission

4:46:40meeting.

4:47:11Motion carries.

4:47:12>> Thank you.

4:47:14>> And that was unanimous. We're having

4:47:16technical difficulties.

4:47:23And with that, that brings us to agenda

4:47:24item 3326-0386.

4:47:27Applicant owner Umar Zahed Malik at all

4:47:30for possible action on the following

4:47:31land use entitlement project request at

4:47:32the southwest corner of Centennial

4:47:34Parkway and Shamber Road. 33A 26-0386

4:47:38GPA1 from PCD planned community

4:47:40development to SC service commercial.

4:47:4333B26-038601

4:47:46from you on develop PCD plan community

4:47:48development general plan designation to

4:47:50C1 limited commercial staff. Can I

4:47:52please get the report?

4:47:55Madam Chair, the proposed service

4:47:57commercial general plan designation and

4:47:59C1 limited commercial zoning district

4:48:01are compatible with the adjacent

4:48:03designations and are appropriate to

4:48:05accommodate future development along a

4:48:07major thoroughfare that fulfills the

4:48:09objectives of the Lumadre Foothills

4:48:11area. No plans for specific development

4:48:14have been submitted at this time. Staff

4:48:16recommends approval of both requests.

4:48:19And please note there were was

4:48:20additional documentation of protest and

4:48:22support received after publication.

4:48:25Thank you.

4:48:29>> Thank you. Please state your name for

4:48:30the record.

4:48:31>> Robert Cunningham, 6030 South Jones

4:48:33Boulevard with Tan Engineering

4:48:35representing the item. So we have a 5

4:48:38acre site roughly located at the

4:48:40southwest corner of Centennial 100 foot

4:48:42parkway

4:48:44street and Shamurn 80 foot wide roadway.

4:48:47Across the street is C1 zoning already

4:48:50uh with a development that is my

4:48:51understanding breaking ground here in

4:48:53the coming months. Uh we're asking for

4:48:55the same zoning on this parcel. Adjacent

4:48:57to us is highdensity um multifamily R4.

4:49:01Uh and then to the north is single

4:49:03family. The 215 beltway is located right

4:49:05here. We would agree with staff's

4:49:07recommendations for approval and

4:49:09adoption of this and be happy to answer

4:49:11any questions you may have. Thank you.

4:49:14>> Thank you. This item has been noticed

4:49:15for public comment. Is there anyone who

4:49:16would like to speak at this time? Please

4:49:19state your name for the record.

4:49:23>> Hi, good evening. My name is Jillian

4:49:25Shioalier and I am a resident of the

4:49:30neighborhood just kitty corner from this

4:49:32lot. I'm a teacher, a parent, and I'm a

4:49:35very active member of my community. I am

4:49:38in opposition to this project. I just

4:49:40want to be clear that I'm not opposed to

4:49:42growth. I'm opposed to growth that is

4:49:44not adequately justified or thoughtfully

4:49:46planned. I have four major concerns.

4:49:49First, it's consistency with the city's

4:49:51own planning decision. You referenced

4:49:53the Lamadrie Foothill special area plan.

4:49:56However, this plan identifies this

4:49:58particular area as medium density

4:50:01residential. Now, I don't have that. I

4:50:03have it on my phone if you want to see.

4:50:06But how did it go from this as

4:50:08recommended by the Ladre Foothills plan

4:50:11to now just a year later, now it's

4:50:13considering changing from general plan

4:50:16designation

4:50:18um to the proposed changes for the

4:50:22zoning as well. So I'm just confused

4:50:25what happened in one year and we are now

4:50:27departing from that vision that was just

4:50:29approved in 2025.

4:50:31So my second concern is the cumulative

4:50:34traffic and pedestrian safety. Through

4:50:37the public records requests, I obtained

4:50:39traffic studies for nearby approved

4:50:41developments. One projected study

4:50:45um stated that there were about 6,800

4:50:49total vehicle trips associated with

4:50:52separate developments in qu not the one

4:50:55in question but at that same corner.

4:50:59Another one identified unacceptable

4:51:01projected intersections

4:51:04operations under certain future

4:51:05conditions at Ann and Shamber. So, with

4:51:09these findings, they're not predictions

4:51:10for this property, and I recognize that,

4:51:12but they raise the important question

4:51:14about cumulative impacts.

4:51:16Residents do not experience traffic one

4:51:19development at a time. We experience the

4:51:21combined effects of every development

4:51:23along this corridor. My third concern is

4:51:26the need, is there really a need for

4:51:28additional commercial zoning? Staff

4:51:31report identifies a lack of commercial

4:51:33activity within the Ladre Foothills

4:51:35area. However, other commercial

4:51:37developments have already been approved

4:51:39nearby

4:51:40with I want to know what evidence

4:51:43demonstrates that this particular 5acre

4:51:45property needs commercial zoning when

4:51:47the adopted LA Madre Foothills plan

4:51:49identifies a different future use. My

4:51:51fourth concern is transparency and

4:51:53accountability where the city published

4:51:56the agenda with denial but the staff

4:51:59report states approval. Could you please

4:52:01clarify? And finally, I want to

4:52:04acknowledge the public comments that

4:52:07were submitted. Um, I have many friends

4:52:10and neighbors that weren't able to

4:52:12attend tonight and I just want to make

4:52:14sure that their voices are heard. Um,

4:52:18I've been in this neighborhood for 15

4:52:19years and I'm just asking that we deny

4:52:23this because it really doesn't fit

4:52:25specifically the Ladre Foothills plan.

4:52:28And if you want to see the picture, I

4:52:29can show you.

4:52:34So here is so I put it right here.

4:52:40This is the city's approval approved

4:52:43proposed plan. You can see the Ladre

4:52:46foothills and you'll notice it says

4:52:48medium

4:52:49density residential and here is the lot

4:52:53in question right here. The orange right

4:52:56there. So I'm just confused.

4:53:00I hope you can see why. Thank you.

4:53:02>> Thank you. Please state your name for

4:53:04the record.

4:53:06>> Hi, Mike Rivy, 10325 West Regina. Um, I

4:53:11have one acre. I'm about a thousand feet

4:53:13away from that that lot. Uh, I'm in

4:53:17opposition to the project. I believe in

4:53:19responsible development. Our

4:53:21neighborhoods need opportunities to to

4:53:23grow, but growth should be compatible

4:53:25with existing communities. The area

4:53:28surrounded by residential neighborhoods,

4:53:30including rural neighborhood preserve

4:53:32areas where maintaining lowdensity

4:53:34residential character is particularly

4:53:36important. My greatest concern is that

4:53:39we are being asked to consider

4:53:41commercial zoning change without knowing

4:53:42what development will ultimately be

4:53:45proposed. Approving commercial zoning

4:53:48now would expand the range of future

4:53:49development possibilities for this

4:53:51property.

4:53:53We need businesses that will serve the

4:53:55community. A barber shop, a Flores, a

4:53:57smoke shop, and other such types. The

4:53:59businesses will be driven by the

4:54:01neighborhood. The area is ma mainly

4:54:03housing with Centennial High School to

4:54:04the east. So business counting on

4:54:07driveby traffic would have a tough time

4:54:08in this area, and we don't need a gas

4:54:10station or a bar. Those are already

4:54:13nearby on Walapai. But I found out

4:54:15there's going to be a gas station on the

4:54:17southeast corner and I know they're

4:54:18having problems and hopefully that's not

4:54:20going to go through and I'll fight that

4:54:21when that comes comes back again. Um I

4:54:24respectfully ask commission to consider

4:54:26the surrounding residential character

4:54:28nearby neighborhood preserve areas and

4:54:31long-term the long-term consequences of

4:54:34granting additional commercial

4:54:36entitlements. For these reasons, I'm

4:54:38asking for denial of both applications.

4:54:41Thank you.

4:54:42>> Thank you. Would you like to submit your

4:54:43written testimony as well to staff?

4:54:46>> Pardon?

4:54:47>> Would you would you like to submit your

4:54:48written testimony to staff as well?

4:54:51>> No, thank you.

4:54:51>> Thank you. And seeing no other coming

4:54:54before for public.

4:54:56>> Can I submit my evidence?

4:54:57>> Sure. Sorry, I have my

4:54:59>> No, not a problem. We can have a member

4:55:00of staff grab it

4:55:02>> and all of all of everything I state is

4:55:04referenced. So,

4:55:06>> thank you.

4:55:08>> Thank you. And with that, I'll ask the

4:55:10applicant to come back up and address

4:55:11the concerns.

4:55:20So th this site right here is at the

4:55:22intersection of two large streets. You

4:55:25know, Centennial is going to just off of

4:55:28this page is Sheet Mountain Parkway, and

4:55:30it will intersect with Sheet Mountain

4:55:32Parkway once that's built. This is a a

4:55:34super arterial, I'll call it, through

4:55:36the area. And Sheet Mountain Parkway is

4:55:38also going to interconnect with Shambber

4:55:40located just south of this. It's going

4:55:42to create a situation where there's a a

4:55:45a super arterial in the area that's

4:55:49going to relieve some of the traffic I

4:55:50think that these neighbors are currently

4:55:52experiencing here. Once that's done, I

4:55:55think you'll see that this area

4:55:56transitions quite a bit from Shambber

4:55:59holding a lot of the traffic heading

4:56:00north south to Sheep Mountain Parkway,

4:56:02being able to split that up. This also

4:56:04has the ability, a lot of the east west

4:56:07traffic in this area goes down

4:56:08Centennial and the north north south

4:56:11traffic will convey on Shamber. A light

4:56:13and a signal was just put in here. I

4:56:15don't know if it's active yet, but it

4:56:17should be shortly. Um, this is where

4:56:19commercial should be in a neighborhood.

4:56:21And the type of commercial we're asking

4:56:23and requesting C1 is service commercial

4:56:25that's set up like that gentleman just

4:56:27spoke about. It would be things that the

4:56:29neighbors and the neighborhood would

4:56:30use. It's not meant to attract regional

4:56:33areas. It's not a shopping center. It's

4:56:35not going to be a grocery store. This is

4:56:36meant to service people in this area.

4:56:39This does make logical sense. Um, this

4:56:41is the highest density or one of the

4:56:43highest density residential type

4:56:45projects that you'll have or four

4:56:47directly adjacent to it and at a

4:56:49signalized intersection is where you'd

4:56:51expect to see commercial. So, for that

4:56:53reason, we believe this is an

4:56:54appropriate location for the commercial.

4:56:56We do plan to file site plans on this in

4:56:59the coming months and uh have this come

4:57:01before this planning planning commission

4:57:03probably by January. Thank you.

4:57:07>> Thank you. And I would ask that at

4:57:09[clears throat] this time especially

4:57:11with C1 already being present in this

4:57:13area and with the upcoming to your point

4:57:16the connect connectivity that is going

4:57:18to occur um I do think that this zoning

4:57:21change is harmonious and compatible. I

4:57:23would say though that when you do file

4:57:24for the site development plan, I would

4:57:26ask that you host community town hall

4:57:28meeting and so that you take feedback

4:57:30from the residents about what they would

4:57:31like to see in that in that site site

4:57:33design. Thank you. And with that, are

4:57:35there any other members of the

4:57:36commission that have any comments?

4:57:39Seeing none, I will be making a motion

4:57:41to approve agenda item 3326-0386.

4:57:46applicant owner uh Omar Zahid Malik at

4:57:48all. 33A 33B subject to staff conditions

4:57:52and you agree with the staff conditions.

4:57:55>> Uh yes, I didn't believe that there were

4:57:58any. Maybe I missed it.

4:58:00>> Oh well, there you go. Then with that,

4:58:03there is a motion.

4:58:04>> Um Chairman, I just wasn't um sure if

4:58:08Mr. Cunningham, I I I thought I saw you

4:58:10nod, but I didn't hear you say that you

4:58:12would agree to doing a town hall to

4:58:15address the concerns and get input on

4:58:17what type of commercial should go on

4:58:18that lot.

4:58:19>> We have no problem with it. I just want

4:58:21to let the board know we I did hold a

4:58:23neighborhood meeting and uh there were

4:58:25about 15 neighbors. There's a summary of

4:58:26it in the staff report as well. Okay.

4:58:28>> So, yeah, that we'll do that again. No

4:58:30problem.

4:58:31>> And if any of the people that commented,

4:58:33I don't know if they've already left,

4:58:34but just make sure to try and include as

4:58:37many as possible. Thank you.

4:58:38>> Absolutely.

4:58:42>> Motion carries.

4:58:43>> Now we'll move on to city council on

4:58:45November 4th.

4:58:49>> This brings us to agenda item 3526-0388.

4:58:53applicant

4:58:54stage Investments LLC at all for

4:58:56possible action on the following land

4:58:58use entitlement project request located

4:58:59on the north side of Iron Mountain Road

4:59:01approximately 45 ft west of Sheet

4:59:03Mountain Parkway 35A 26-038A

4:59:07GPA 1 from PCD plan community

4:59:09development to M medium density

4:59:11residential sorry [snorts] pardon me we

4:59:13did amend it to ML medium

4:59:14[clears throat] lowdensity residential

4:59:1635B 26-0388

4:59:18Z1 from Udeveloped PCD plan community

4:59:22development general plan designation to

4:59:24RCL single family compact lot. Staff,

4:59:27can I please get the report?

4:59:30>> Madame Chair, staff received a revised

4:59:33justification letter requesting to amend

4:59:35the general plan amendment request from

4:59:37medium density residential to medium low

4:59:40density residential and to amend the

4:59:43requested reszoning from RTH to RCL.

4:59:47Due to the applicant amending their

4:59:49request to districts that align with the

4:59:51Kyle Canyon special area plan, staff

4:59:54recommends approval of both the general

4:59:57plan amendment and resoning. Please note

4:59:59there is additional documentation of

5:00:01support received after publication.

5:00:03Thank you.

5:00:04>> Thank you. Please state your name for

5:00:05the record.

5:00:06>> Thank you, Madam Chair, commissioners.

5:00:08Bob Gronower, uh 1980 Festival Plaza

5:00:11Drive. I'm here representing Randy

5:00:13Black, Senior on these two items that

5:00:15are before you. Uh just to give you a

5:00:18quick highlight of where this property

5:00:19is located in the yellow area here. We

5:00:21have about a little bit over 35 acres.

5:00:24This is in the Kyle Canyon area. Kyle

5:00:26Canyon Road is running north uh excuse

5:00:28me, east and west in this area here. And

5:00:31we're right up adjacent to city-owned

5:00:33land which is a sheep mountain parkway

5:00:36as you know is a major arterial that

5:00:38goes north and south in this area. Um

5:00:40because of the location of our property

5:00:42here at the intersection of some two

5:00:45major air uh two major arterials in this

5:00:47area here, we believe that this is going

5:00:49to be a fairly intense area. So we've

5:00:52been [clears throat] working with the

5:00:53planning commissioner and councilwoman

5:00:55on the planning in this area. Um and

5:00:58what we've done is that staff is

5:01:00recommending approval for medium low

5:01:01density and for RCL zoning for the zone

5:01:05change. What you'll have here is some

5:01:07form of transitional zoning as you go

5:01:09west. So you have Sheet Mountain

5:01:11Parkway. Uh this is some city- owned

5:01:13land and BLM land that's owned. So you

5:01:16could build out Sheet Mountain Parkway

5:01:17in this area. And then you'll have our

5:01:20property here where you'll have the RCL

5:01:21zoning in the medium low. But as you go

5:01:24further west, as you can see here

5:01:27tonight, Toll Brothers, you just

5:01:28approved the medium low uh plan on the

5:01:31on uh a few about an hour ago or so. And

5:01:34then the KB project that I represented a

5:01:37couple months ago is medium low in this

5:01:38area. So with that being said, this is

5:01:41consistent with the plan as staff has

5:01:43mentioned and consistent with

5:01:44transitioning the zoning as you go

5:01:46further to the west. And we'll be coming

5:01:48in here with a tenative a map. Um we're

5:01:50filing that. So you'll see me again in

5:01:52about another 60 days as we finalize the

5:01:55tenative a map on this 35 acres.

5:01:58>> Thank you so much. This item has been

5:02:00for public comment. Is there anyone who

5:02:01would like to speak at this time? Seeing

5:02:04none, I will be closing public comment,

5:02:05turning it over to members of the

5:02:06commission, starting with Commissioner

5:02:07Taylor.

5:02:08>> Thank you, Madam Chair. Just a couple

5:02:10quick comments. Um, Mr. Grown, uh, thank

5:02:13you for coming in and for all the work.

5:02:16And, um, just wanted to note where

5:02:19you've got your medium low. We've had

5:02:21multiple discussions um, across your

5:02:24colleagues about

5:02:27continuing to lower the density as we go

5:02:29west up Kyle Canyon. uh and that this is

5:02:31a unique property for RCL because of

5:02:34where it's located.

5:02:35>> Yep.

5:02:36>> Right. Okay. And then also when we talk

5:02:39about your tenative map, we are going to

5:02:41an RCL zoning even though it is adjacent

5:02:44to RSL properties

5:02:47>> and I want to make sure that we're clear

5:02:49on the record that that map is going to

5:02:50have adequate buffering to the RSL

5:02:53communities with the RCL properties or

5:02:56product being closer to Sheep Mountain

5:02:58Parkway.

5:02:59>> Yep. and it's going to be consistent

5:03:01with what we've been having on the off

5:03:03offsite or on a sidebar conversations

5:03:06with you with what we've been showing.

5:03:08Right. So, [snorts] we're just

5:03:08fine-tuning some open space in the

5:03:10amenities and hopefully we're there.

5:03:12>> Okay. And I will look forward to

5:03:13continuing to discuss the tenative map

5:03:15and additional open space with you as we

5:03:17get closer to your next hearing.

5:03:19>> I'll see you many more times.

5:03:20>> So many more times. Okay. Um if nobody

5:03:23else has any questions, I have uh I'm

5:03:25prepared to make my motion.

5:03:26>> Please do. Okay. Um on wait readers um

5:03:32on item 35 that's 26-0388

5:03:35and 35A and 35B um I make a motion to

5:03:39approve subject to all staff's

5:03:41conditions and you agree to all staff

5:03:42conditions.

5:03:45>> I don't think there's staff conditions

5:03:46on a GPA and

5:03:48>> I just it's you know agree just say it.

5:03:50>> Yes.

5:03:50>> Yeah. Make one up miss real quickly.

5:03:55>> All right.

5:03:57I

5:03:57>> there shall be the condition is there

5:03:58shall be no conditions on this anyway.

5:04:00>> Thank you, Mr. G.

5:04:01>> All right. Thank you and have a good

5:04:02night.

5:04:02>> Motion carries.

5:04:03>> Now we'll move on to city council on

5:04:05November 4th.

5:04:06>> That brings us to agenda item 3726-0403

5:04:10SUP1 applicant precision auto EV owner

5:04:13Cardona and Cardona LLC for possible

5:04:15action on a land use entitlement project

5:04:17request for proposed motor vehicle parts

5:04:18sales installation and repair motor

5:04:20vehicle repair major use at 1250

5:04:23Northeastern Avenue suite for staff. Can

5:04:25I please get the report? Yes, Madam

5:04:27Chair. Staff finds the proposed use

5:04:29cannot be conducted in a manner that is

5:04:30harmonious and compatible with the

5:04:32surrounding area as evidenced [snorts]

5:04:34by the need for the special use permit

5:04:35approval due to the site's proximity to

5:04:37single family residential zone property.

5:04:40Additionally, the site has an

5:04:42neighborhood mixeduse center general

5:04:43plan designation which seeks to promote

5:04:45uses to fit the character of the area

5:04:47and gradually reduce autooriented uses.

5:04:50As such, staff recommends denial of the

5:04:52special use permit request. If approved,

5:04:54the special use permit will be subject

5:04:56to conditions. Thank you.

5:04:58>> Thank you. Please state your name for

5:04:59the record.

5:05:00>> Um, my name is Javier Cardona. I'm with

5:05:44assistant of uh city council Diaz, and

5:05:48she she was very receptive and and

5:05:50pleased with her with the the new

5:05:52improvements that we had

5:05:55as far as uh removing a lot a lot of the

5:05:57vehicles that were there. Like I said,

5:06:00those are really old pictures. It's not

5:06:02like that right now.

5:06:05>> Okay. And so with that, this item has

5:06:08been opened for public comment. Is there

5:06:09anyone who would like to speak at this

5:06:10time? Seeing none, I will be closing

5:06:13public comment. Turning over to members

5:06:14of the commission, starting with

5:06:15Commissioner Schloffman.

5:06:54they're in disrepair and some of them

5:06:57may appear to be unregistered and just

5:07:00that's been sitting around there for

5:07:02quite some time. I mean, is that true

5:07:04statement?

5:07:05>> No, sir. All the those pictures are old

5:07:08pictures as I said it before. there.

5:07:18different what?

5:07:19>> The the place is being cleaned out.

5:07:22There's no cars in there in that area.

5:07:24>> Okay. But it seems like we've had issues

5:07:27out of this, you know, year after year

5:07:30after year, and then we we approve stuff

5:07:32and then it just gets trashed back up.

5:07:35So, what's your plan moving forward to

5:07:37make sure that this doesn't happen

5:07:39again?

5:07:39>> We're maintaining it that way.

5:07:43>> You're you're maintaining it that way?

5:07:45>> Yes, sir.

5:07:46>> For how long?

5:07:47>> As long as it takes.

5:07:49>> Okay.

5:07:51So,

5:07:53I'm gonna ask Miss Edos if she could

5:07:55help me craft some kind of condition um

5:07:59where there's no

5:08:01vehicles that are unregistered,

5:08:04abandoned, missing body parts that are

5:08:08going to be kept out in that parking

5:08:10lot.

5:08:11>> There's not.

5:08:11>> Okay. So, where are we going to put

5:08:13these vehicles?

5:08:14>> They're gone.

5:08:16>> But when they come in to get serviced,

5:08:18where are you going to keep them?

5:08:20They're not going to be there.

5:08:22>> So, you're not servicing vehicles at

5:08:24this location?

5:08:25>> Yes, sir.

5:08:26>> Okay. So, where are you going to put the

5:08:28vehicles when they come in to get

5:08:30serviced?

5:08:31>> Right in front of the the the the

5:08:35main entrance of the of the shop.

5:08:38>> Okay. And you'll bring them in, you'll

5:08:41work on them at night. And what are you

5:08:42going to do with them at night?

5:08:44>> In and out at the same day.

5:08:46>> Okay. And if you need one overnight,

5:08:48where are you going to keep it?

5:08:50>> Well, most of the the work that they do

5:08:53is is in appointments. You they bring

5:08:56the car in the morning and the car is

5:08:58gone at the end of the day.

5:09:01>> Yeah. But this is a motor vehicle repair

5:09:04major, not minor. You're not doing oil

5:09:07changes and things like that. I mean,

5:09:10it's a major. You can rebuild

5:09:12transmissions and motors and stuff like

5:09:14that. You're not doing that overnight.

5:09:18Yeah, but most most of the time we we

5:09:21don't allow the ve vehicles to come in

5:09:24until the parts are there to be fixed.

5:09:27>> Okay. So, what what goes on with the

5:09:30proposed storage area?

5:09:34>> What do you mean?

5:09:36>> Your site plan says propose proposed

5:09:38storage area. What What are you doing

5:09:40there?

5:09:41>> We're going to build another two bays in

5:09:43there for storage.

5:09:47Wait, you're you're adding on to this

5:09:49building?

5:09:50>> Yes, sir.

5:09:51>> That's not just outdoor space that's

5:09:53behind a fence.

5:09:54>> No, sir. It's

5:09:57not approved just yet, but I that we're

5:10:00working on that.

5:10:05>> Okay. So,

5:10:09but if you are adding on add additional

5:10:12square footage, you're going to have to

5:10:13come back before this board.

5:10:16>> That's correct.

5:10:18>> So, my question is, what are you doing

5:10:20with the proposed storage area right

5:10:22now?

5:10:24>> We're not doing anything.

5:10:25>> Is that where you would store the

5:10:26vehicles at night if they have to stay

5:10:28overnight?

5:10:29>> This is is one of the the plan. Yeah.

5:10:34And how are we going to screen that

5:10:35storage area so people can't see in

5:10:38there?

5:10:40>> Well, it was already screened on the

5:10:42fence and they they made a they made

5:10:45them remove it.

5:10:47You know, it was already it was already

5:10:49done.

5:10:51>> And they who made you remove it? Code

5:10:53enforcement.

5:10:53>> Code enforcement. Yeah.

5:10:55>> Okay. If I can ask staff

5:10:57>> to me it didn't make any sense, you

5:10:58know? I mean, we can put it back again

5:11:00if you want.

5:11:04Let me let me hear what what condition

5:11:06staff can come up with and I'll see if

5:11:10that satisfies me.

5:11:13Madame chair, through you. This is for a

5:11:16major auto repair. So there will be um

5:11:21body work occurring on site.

5:11:26So we can add the condition that no

5:11:29disabled vehicle shall be parked

5:11:32overnight.

5:11:34Um

5:11:36he he it would be best if they did have

5:11:40a screened area to maintain if they were

5:11:44doing major body work

5:11:47that if you know obviously this is not

5:11:49going to be done in one day.

5:11:51>> Sure. Um, it would be best if there was

5:11:53a screened area to maintain disabled

5:11:56vehicles, but we can add a condition

5:11:59that no disabled vehicles shall be

5:12:01parked overnight.

5:12:03Um, and then another condition we can

5:12:05add would state all vehicles shall

5:12:07display current registration or

5:12:10dealership plates.

5:12:12>> Okay. And then they said that code

5:12:14enforcement

5:12:16um made them take down the screening on

5:12:19that fenced in area where the proposed

5:12:21storage area is. I mean is there a way

5:12:24that we can

5:12:26like

5:12:27make a condition to where it is screened

5:12:30so that we we don't have to look at

5:12:32these vehicles that are being being

5:12:35serviced.

5:12:37the the site did have an active

5:12:39entitlement for the expansion area and

5:12:42the screened storage area, but the

5:12:44entitlement expired.

5:12:47And that was why code enforcement was um

5:12:50called in to help clean up the site

5:12:54because those areas that were approved

5:12:56to help screen the disabled vehicles

5:12:59were never properly constructed. And

5:13:02this is a SUP, so I probably can't put

5:13:04that on to this particular property or

5:13:07on to this particular application.

5:13:09>> Agreed. Um it would be best if the

5:13:12applicant came back with an SDR to

5:13:14update the site to either include an

5:13:17enclosed

5:13:18um addition like they had before for

5:13:21storage of disabled vehicles or um any

5:13:26outdoor storage requires an 8 foot tall

5:13:29solid screen wall. So we would need um

5:13:31to evaluate you know if it was going to

5:13:33be in any setbacks if it would you know

5:13:37trigger any variances.

5:13:39>> How long would it take this applicant to

5:13:40get a SDR uh caught up with the SGP?

5:13:44>> Uh we are currently

5:13:47uh performing pre-application meetings

5:13:50for the January cycle. So it would be

5:13:54about 3 months probably before he would

5:13:56be able to get in front of you again if

5:13:58he immediately submitted those plans.

5:14:02>> And are you currently working out of

5:14:04this building?

5:14:06>> No not myself? No.

5:14:08>> No. No. I mean it is work occurring out

5:14:11of this building at this time?

5:14:12>> It is. Yeah.

5:14:13>> And and and so this entitlement is

5:14:15expanding it from what a a minor to a

5:14:18major

5:14:20>> or why why are they here for this? And

5:14:23there is there's four suites in this

5:14:25building. One is being operated as a

5:14:29this is what I from my memory um there

5:14:33is a tire

5:14:35facility. There is an auto glass

5:14:38facility and there is a minor or the uh

5:14:43the car the used car sales and then this

5:14:45would be the major auto repair.

5:14:50I don't mind the use and you doing what

5:14:52you need to do, but I I do have a

5:14:54problem with leaving these vehicles out

5:14:56and not being screened. Um,

5:15:03and it looks like I can't enforce any

5:15:05kind of screening requirements unless if

5:15:07you come back with a SDR.

5:15:10So, I guess I have to ask, would you be

5:15:12willing to submit a SDR so you can

5:15:15>> Yeah. So you can uh come back with that

5:15:17screening because I don't want to see

5:15:19any cars parked up front. But if you

5:15:21have cars parked overnight behind a

5:15:23screen, I have no problem with that. And

5:15:25I I don't really have a problem with you

5:15:27doing the work that you want to do

5:15:28there.

5:15:29>> I just don't want to see this trash

5:15:31trashed out. And I mean because this has

5:15:33been a a a sore site for many many

5:15:37years. [clears throat]

5:15:38>> Yes, sir. We we're willing to do it. But

5:15:41if if you drive around, you know, I

5:15:43encourage you to go and see, you know, I

5:15:46mean, uh, compared to the rest of the

5:15:47pro the properties and the other

5:15:49businesses, our business looks the

5:15:51cleaner, the neatest, everything is

5:15:53painted.

5:15:54>> All the trees are pruned and, uh,

5:15:56>> we have a lot of problems with a lot of

5:15:57businesses around here. So, that that's

5:15:59what we're just trying to clean up.

5:16:00>> You'll be surprised that our place is is

5:16:03the best kept right now in in the whole

5:16:06street.

5:16:13One second.

5:16:38All right. How about uh how about we

5:16:40hold this item um and we allow you to go

5:16:44back and get a SDR come back to us

5:16:47showing the uh showing the screening

5:16:50that you're going to provide. And if you

5:16:52look at your site plan, you actually

5:16:53have a squiggly line the end of your

5:16:55building where you're going to be you

5:16:56say that you're going to end up building

5:16:58another building. If you want to propose

5:17:00that, that's fine. or if you just want

5:17:01to propose a a fence with some kind of

5:17:04screen material and at night or if if a

5:17:08car needs to stay there for two weeks,

5:17:10you put it behind that screen so

5:17:12nobody's uh looking at that. Um I would

5:17:15appreciate that you can get with staff

5:17:17right after this. And

5:17:20>> so would I would I table this item just

5:17:24because we don't know when it would be

5:17:25pulled back forward.

5:17:27>> So madam chair through you Seth Foley

5:17:29for the record. Yes. I was just talking

5:17:30with the city attorney. I think that

5:17:32would probably be best since we don't

5:17:34know exactly which meeting that SDR

5:17:37would track to. So, I think a table

5:17:39would allow them to bring it back when

5:17:42the SDR makes it through and gets on an

5:17:45agenda.

5:17:46>> Okay. So, we'll table this item and

5:17:48whenever you get your application in for

5:17:51the rest of those items, then it'll all

5:17:54come back together as one and then we'll

5:17:56vote on it and send it to city council.

5:17:58But if you work with uh city staff, you

5:18:00can ask them um you know how to

5:18:04how to submit that and then and they can

5:18:07talk to you about time frames and

5:18:08everything. Are you fine with that?

5:18:10[clears throat]

5:18:10>> Yeah, if you give us a guidelines for

5:18:12the screening, we we can do it right

5:18:14away.

5:18:15>> Okay.

5:18:15>> Because the other item we don't know

5:18:17when is when is that going to happen

5:18:20and if it's going to happen. So that's

5:18:23>> Sure. Yeah, we can we can work on that.

5:18:24But but right now we want to expedite

5:18:26this if it's possible, you know, feel

5:18:28like

5:18:29>> Okay. Well, we'll work on screening and

5:18:31if we get screening, then I'd feel

5:18:33comfortable with this. So,

5:18:34>> um, sure. Who's going to give me the the

5:18:37guidelines?

5:18:38>> You're going to walk over and talk to

5:18:39one of the staff members right after we

5:18:41we make a vote.

5:18:42>> Okay.

5:18:43>> Thank you. Um, Madam Chair, on item

5:18:46number 37,

5:18:49uh, I move to table this item.

5:19:47development in the area. Staff

5:19:58Thank you.

5:19:58>> Thank you. Please state your name for

5:20:00the record.

5:20:00>> Good evening madam chair, commissioners.

5:20:02Dave Turner, 333 North Rancho

5:20:04representing the applicant. What we're

5:20:06asking for here tonight is a a 90 unit

5:20:09apartment complex uh just south of uh

5:20:12Charleston on Lindell Road. It is

5:20:14directly across the street from its

5:20:15sister property, Lindell Living, which

5:20:17has been there for several years now.

5:20:19And uh we ask that you follow staff's

5:20:21recommendations and we uh agree to their

5:20:24if approved conditions.

5:20:27>> Thank you. This item has been for public

5:20:29comment. Is there anyone who would like

5:20:30to speak at this time? Seeing none, I

5:20:32will close public comment. Turn over to

5:20:34members of the commission. Starting with

5:20:36uh Commissioner Rogan.

5:20:38>> Thank you. I think we we've already

5:20:39approved this once in the past, have we

5:20:41not at this location?

5:20:43>> That is correct. This was approved back

5:20:44in 21 for a senior living 55 plus

5:20:47community. Now it's going to be a

5:20:49regular apartment complex.

5:20:50>> Okay. Is it

5:20:51>> It's the same buildings, the same site

5:20:52design. We just pushed the buildings

5:20:54towards Lindell a little bit for the

5:20:56TOC.

5:20:57>> Okay. What what what is the time frame

5:21:00for the development of this? Is this

5:21:02going to expire just like the last one

5:21:03or what's going on? I I sure hope not.

5:21:05They were having a hard time leasing out

5:21:06the Lindell living and that's what uh

5:21:08put this on hold for a while.

5:21:10>> Got it. Okay. Here's my my one concern

5:21:12and it's and this just may be me, but

5:21:14this is the first project that's coming

5:21:16in for the TOD transit overlay district

5:21:19and we have no study. We have no plan.

5:21:22We have no new transit. I mean, this

5:21:24would be approved. You could get a

5:21:25couple variances and come in with the

5:21:27same project and it would likely be

5:21:29approved. I would support it. I'm just

5:21:31not comfortable with the TOD overlay. I

5:21:34know it sounds strange, but we don't

5:21:36have anything to justify imposing the

5:21:38TOD overlay that was intended to do so

5:21:41when we have a transit plan in place,

5:21:43either bus rapid transit or

5:21:44high-capacity transit. And my fear is we

5:21:47start doing this, people are going to

5:21:48come in, they're going to get their

5:21:49density, they're going to get their

5:21:50height um that they want, and they're

5:21:52going to demand parking because we don't

5:21:54have any transit yet, right?

5:21:56>> So, you understand my concerns with

5:21:57that?

5:21:57>> I I do. Yeah.

5:21:58>> Okay. Do you have 30 days to come back

5:22:01with variances instead of the to

5:22:03overlay?

5:22:03>> Uh yeah, we could do that. Absolutely.

5:22:05>> All right. Can we obey this for 30 days

5:22:07then? Um unless anyone has any comments.

5:22:10I'm sorry.

5:22:12>> The only thing I would do

5:22:14>> Oh, I'm sorry. Through you, Madam Chair.

5:22:15I apologize. Um if if he's working on

5:22:18the to overlay, if you can just take

5:22:20another look at his landscaping plan,

5:22:21too, to make sure it's consistent with

5:22:23what we've been trying to do.

5:22:25>> Right.

5:22:25>> Thank you, Commissioner. So we can talk

5:22:27about some trees as well.

5:22:29>> Okay.

5:22:30>> Commissioner Fair.

5:22:32>> Oh, no worries. Um with that.

5:22:34>> All right. I'm sorry to do this. I know

5:22:36you've been here all night, but I we're

5:22:38just asked to obey um agenda item 38 uh

5:22:40project 26-0406

5:23:12alcohol on premise full use at 2341

5:23:14North Rainbow Boulevard. Staff, can I

5:23:16please get the report?

5:23:17>> Yes, Madam Chair. The proposed use is

5:23:19consistent with the uses allowed in the

5:23:20C1 limited commercial zoning district

5:23:23and can be conducted in a compatible and

5:23:24harmonious manner with the surrounding

5:23:26land uses. The distance separation

5:23:28requirements from protected uses are

5:23:30met. Therefore, staff recommends

5:23:31approval of the special use permit

5:23:33request subject to conditions. Please

5:24:43this special use permit also for the

5:25:514226-0418.

5:25:53Applicant Contour Builders LLC owner BS

5:25:56SSWDE2 LLC for possible action on the

5:25:59following land use entitlement project

5:26:00request the northeast corner of Trails

5:26:02and Avenue and Alpine Ridgeway. 42A

5:26:05260418 GPA 1 from PCD plan community

5:26:08development to MLA medium lowdensity

5:26:10residential attached. 42B 2604181

5:26:14from Udeveloped to RTH single family

5:26:17attached. 42 C 26041A V1 to allow

5:26:21private gated streets that do not

5:26:22conform to Tile 19.04 complete street

5:26:25standards. 42D 26041A VR2 to allow

5:26:28proposed perimeter walls that do not

5:26:30conform with tile 19.06 high development

5:26:33standards. 42E 260418 TMP1 trails N 2.6

5:26:38for proposed 25 lot single family

5:26:39residential attached subdivision. Staff,

5:26:42can I please get the report? Madame

5:26:44Chair, the proposed MLA general plan

5:26:46designation and RTH zoning designation

5:26:49are consistent with the approved

5:26:51residential density in this area along

5:26:53Alpine Ridge and therefore staff

5:26:55recommends approval of those requests.

5:26:58However, the requested variances of

5:26:59complete street standards and perimeter

5:27:01wall height have been determined to be

5:27:03self-imposed hardships and therefore

5:27:05staff recommends denial of the variances

5:27:08in tenative map subject to conditions if

5:27:10approved. Please note there is a revised

5:27:13conceptual landscape plan that you will

5:27:15find in your supplemental packets and

5:27:18I'll need to read in an amended

5:27:19condition for the date stamp on that one

5:27:22and note there was additional

5:27:23documentation of support received after

5:27:25publication. Thank you.

5:27:27>> Thank you. Please state your name for

5:27:28the record.

5:27:29>> Good evening. Mark Mahhal 1980 Festival

5:27:32Plaza Drive here on behalf of the

5:27:35applicant Contour Home. So, we were just

5:27:38before you all back in April and we were

5:27:41previously approved for the site just

5:27:43west of this approximately 2 1/2 acre

5:27:46site. Um, so that was for 76 town homes.

5:27:49Really, this is an extension of that

5:27:52approval now for 25 town homes. The same

5:27:56kind of product. Um, we're bringing in

5:28:00again landscaping and open space that

5:28:03will be upfront at the development. Um,

5:28:06additionally we do have a variance again

5:28:09for the stub streets that are within the

5:28:11gated community and then additionally we

5:28:14have a variance for the retaining wall

5:28:18um of 10 ft that exist in the northeast

5:28:21portion of the site. This is necessary

5:28:24for drainage as we have to push the

5:28:25drainage back west to properly drain the

5:28:28site um as that's where our connection

5:28:30is. These walls will not face the public

5:28:33right ofway currently. That's BLM land

5:28:36and then undeveloped land. So happy to

5:28:38answer any questions on this. Um this

5:28:42was a project again that was previously

5:28:44approved. Um and happy to answer any

5:28:47questions. Thank you.

5:28:49>> Thank you. This item has been noticed

5:28:50for public comment. Is there anyone who

5:28:51would like to speak at this time? Seeing

5:28:53none, I will be closing public comment.

5:28:54Turning over to members of the

5:28:56commission, starting with Commissioner

5:28:57Taylor.

5:28:57>> Uh thank you, Madam Chair. Mr. Mahal,

5:28:59thanks for hanging in and to your

5:29:01clients as well um for the whole

5:29:03evening. Um I don't really have any

5:29:06questions. We've spent a lot of time

5:29:07working on the original project and then

5:29:10as you noted, this is essentially an

5:29:11extension. So um if nobody else has any

5:29:15questions, I'm I'm prepared to make a

5:29:17motion on this.

5:29:18>> Please do.

5:29:19>> Okay. Um on item 42

5:29:2226-418,

5:31:11plan development to CV Civic. Staff, can

5:31:13I please get the report?

5:31:14>> Hi there. Marilyn Sner, su MN

5:31:20like money never. Uh 2004 Birch Street.

5:31:25I've lived in Glenn Heather Estates

5:31:28about 35 years. Uh we are bounded in by

5:31:32I-15,

5:31:34Oki, Rancho, and Sahara. over the years,

5:31:39many, many zone

5:31:42changes, amendments,

5:31:45and for those of you that have lived

5:31:47here in Vegas for any length of time,

5:31:51historically,

5:31:52we have had

5:31:55so many zone changes and amendments over

5:31:58the years. And long story short, I

5:32:02didn't get my card until Wednesday of

5:32:05last week. And a lot of my neighbors

5:32:08hadn't are on trips. One's in a

5:32:11hospital. We haven't had a chance to

5:32:13have a neighborhood meeting and

5:32:17um no one from the ward. We're in ward

5:32:20one has contacted any of us. So I'm

5:32:23coming kind of unprepared. Some my

5:32:25neighbors asked me if I would come and

5:32:29for before you. And I'm just, for what

5:32:32it's worth, I'm opposed

5:32:35to any any more traffic being dumped

5:32:40literally on Sahara. It's congested

5:32:44enough, saturated enough, and I, you

5:32:49know, it's it's it's a nightmare to be

5:32:51on. And it also did not say on the card

5:32:55what the land use was for. And so some

5:32:58people had even said, "Hey, if they want

5:33:00to put an assisted living or something

5:33:02there, they'd be for it because I live

5:33:05in an older neighborhood, so they could

5:33:06probably walk there." Anyway, I would

5:33:09like to ask and request that you all

5:33:13oppose it or at least give us time to

5:33:17have a neighborhood meeting to discuss

5:33:20it.

5:33:22That's it. Sorry, I'm I'm not working

5:33:25with any notes right now.

5:33:27For what it's worth, I do appreciate you

5:33:29all staying up.

5:33:31>> I I mean, you guys, you do this once a

5:33:33week and I don't know how you do it. I

5:33:35mean, you know,

5:33:36>> thank you so much for listening to me.

5:33:39>> No, thank you. And um your comments will

5:33:41definitely be included in the public

5:33:43public comment section as well. So,

5:33:45thank you. And so, with that, I am going

5:33:48to go to staff and ask for a staff

5:33:51report. Thank you,

5:33:54>> Madame Chair. With the completion of

5:33:57project neon, the dep the Nevada

5:33:59Department of Transportation has deeded

5:34:02back the subject remnant parcels to the

5:34:05city. Therefore, the city is proposing

5:34:07to reszone the parcels to civic with a

5:34:10general plan amendment designation of

5:34:32comment, you already gave your comment.

5:34:34So that is now noted in our public

5:34:36comment section. And then now, unless

5:34:38sir, would you like to be speaking in

5:34:40public comment on this agenda item at

5:34:42this time? No. Then at this time, we'll

5:34:44close public comment and I will turn it

5:34:46over to Commissioner Rogan.

5:34:48>> Good evening, ma'am. I'll talk to you

5:34:50and explain what's going on. This is

5:34:51just kind of a cleanup thing. There's

5:34:53nothing really to be wor to be worried

5:34:55about for your Glen Heather

5:34:56neighborhood. So, if you hang out just a

5:34:58minute after we're done, I'll come speak

5:34:59to you. All right.

5:35:01>> Okay. Um I have no comments on this. I

5:35:04make a motion for approval of agenda

5:35:05item I'm sorry. Unless there's other

5:35:08comments, I'm ready to make a motion for

5:35:09approval of agenda item 43, project

5:35:16Does staff agree to all of its

5:35:18conditions?

5:35:24Motion carries.

5:35:25>> And that will move on to city council on

5:35:26November 4th.

5:35:28>> That brings us to our final item of the

5:35:30night, citizens participation. 46.

5:35:33Citizens participation. Public comment

5:35:35during this portion of the agenda must

5:35:36be limited to matters within the

5:35:37jurisdiction of the planning commission.

5:35:39No subject may be acted upon by the

5:35:40planning commission unless that subject

5:35:42is on the agenda and is scheduled for

5:35:43action. If you wish to be heard, come to

5:35:45the podium and give your name for the

5:35:47record. The amount of discussion on any

5:35:48single subject as well as the amount of

5:35:50time any single speaker is allowed may

5:35:51be limited. Is there anyone who would

5:35:53like to speak in citizens participation

5:35:55at this time? Seeing none, I close the

5:35:58agenda item. And with that, we are

5:35:59adjourned.
