Zaremba: Works for me. Borup: So, we could do it after -- McKinnon: I mean I don't think it will take us more 15, 20 minutes at the most. Borup: Okay. We might get through the next two items, then. McKinnon: Is Becky next? It could be awhile. Borup: Does that sound all right, Commissioners? Do we need a motion, then, just to continue this for -- Zaremba: Mr. Chairman, I move that we continue ZOA 04-001 until later in this meeting and let's tentatively look at it after Item 6, before Item 7. McKinnon: Thank you, Commissioners. Borup: Thank you. I think, then, we can get it all taken care of tonight. The next item is Zaremba: Do we need to vote on that? Borup: Oh, I'm sorry. Moe: I second that, then, first. Borup: Motion and second. All in favor? Any opposed. MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES. Item 5: Public Hearing: PP 04-014 Request for Preliminary Plat approval of 8 commercial building lots on 6.9 acres in an I-L zone for Reagan Subdivision by Quadrant Consulting, Inc. -east of North Eagle Road and south of East Presidential Drive: Borup: Public Hearing PP 04-014, a request for preliminary plat approval of eight commercial building lots on 6.9 acres in an I-L zone for Reagan Subdivision. Like to open this hearing and start with the staff report. Siddoway: Thank you, Mr. Chairman, Members of the Commission. The subject property is located on the Eagle Road. It's part of the extension of the Crossroads Shopping Center. Presidential Drive entry into Crossroads Subdivision is on its north Meridian Planning & Zoning June 3, 2004 Page 17 of 65 boundary. The new extension of Pine Street is on the southern boundary and Eagle Road is running North-South here. The subject property is outlined in black. It is a proposal for eight commercial lots on the 6.9 acres shown. You can see the aerial photo here. It's a re-subdivision of three of the four existing lots on that site and this is the proposed layout. You can see the full site here. The part that's cross-hatched is the portion that is not part of this application and the remaining portion in white has the other -- one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight lots. There are three variances that already currently exist on the property that were granted in the year 2001. The first variance omitted the need for the landscape buffer on Eagle Road to be on a common lot. It allowed it to be placed in an easement. The second variance reduced the width of that buffer from 35 feet to 20 feet and, then, the third variance reduced the width of the buffer in the rear from 25 feet to 20 feet and the proposed plat reflects those changes as allowed by those variances. You should have the staff report from Brad Hawkins-Clark, who I'm pinch-hitting for tonight and Mr. Freckleton. I would point out that on page four, item 15, the applicant has raised the question about the -- about needing the revised plat depicting the foot cross-axis easement in a vehicle turn around. I cannot figure out why that would be needed and am recommending that it be deleted at the applicant's request. The access road that goes through -- connects through all the way to two public streets -- and I'm not certain where a ,turn around would be needed. Yeah. It may have been a carry over from a previous report. I'm not certain. If there is an issue with it, there is still an opportunity for Brad to bring it up at the City Council, but I have reviewed it and I am not seeing a need for it. So, I would recommend striking item number 15. Then, my second comment is just below that you see that there is a section for agency comments and it's blank. We did discover that today and have added an addendum, which you should have from the clerk that provides nine comments from the fire department, two from sanitary services company, and one from the parks department and we would ask that those be incorporated into any motion tonight and I will stand for any questions. Borup: Questions from any of the Commission? Does the applicant have a presentation they'd like to make? Christensen: Members of the Commission, my name is Chuck Christensen. I work for Quadrant Consulting at 406 South 8th Street in Boise. I don't really have much of a presentation. We have reviewed the conditions of approval and with the one modification deleting condition number 15, the conditions are all acceptable to us. Moe: Have you reviewed the other comments from the fire department? Christensen: Yes. Those are all acceptable, too. Moe: Okay. Borup: Okay. Any questions from any of the Commissioners? All right. Thank you, sir. Do we have anyone else to testify in this application. Seeing none, Commissioners? Meridian Planning & Zoning June 3, 2004 Page 18 of 65 Zaremba: Mr. Chairman, I move we close the Public Hearing on PP 04-014. Moe: Second. Borup: Motion and second to close the hearing. All in favor? Any opposed? MOTION CARRIED: THREE AYES. ONE ABSENT. Zaremba: Mr. Chairman, I move we forward to the City Council recommending approval of PP 04-014, request for preliminary plat approval of eight commercial building lots on 6.9 acres in an I-L zone for Reagan Subdivision by Quadrant Consulting, Inc., east of North Eagle Road and south of East Presidential Drive, to include all staff comments of their memo for the hearing date of June 3, 2004, received by the city clerk June 2, 2004, with two exceptions. One is that on page four, paragraph 15 may be deleted, and the other is that we are including in this staff report the addendum staff report, which is also dated for the P&Z hearing date of June 3, 2004, received by the city clerk June 3, 2004. Moe: Second. Borup: Motion and second. All in favor? Any opposed? MOTION CARRIED: THREE AYES. ONE ABSENT. Item 6: Public Hearing: PP 04-015 Request for Preliminary Plat approval of 3 building lots on 3.49 acres in an I-L zone for proposed Nola Subdivision by Anderson/Lockwood Foundation -south-west corner of East Pine Avenue and North Nola Road: Borup: Thank you. The next item is Public Hearing PP 04-015, a request for preliminary plat approval of three building lots on 3.49 acres in an I-L zone for the proposed Nola Subdivision by Anderson/Lockwood Foundation. We'd like to open this hearing at this time and start with the staff report. Hood: Mr. Chairman, Members of the Commission, the applicant has submitted a letter requesting that this application be withdrawn. After preliminary review of the submitted plat, staff contacted the applicant; there was a record of survey -- long story short, there was a record of survey recorded early 2002, I believe, or 2000, that split the property. The city does not recognize records of survey that subdivide property without going through the subdivision ordinance, so they have withdrawn the application and are going to include the entire boundary of that record of survey in a revised preliminary plat, which we expect to see shortly. Borup: So, it's just withdrawn and they will reapply? Hood: Withdrawn right now. We may be coming back -- or Anna may be coming back -- since astaff report wasn't prepared, they will be out some of their fees, but they do want
