Memo
If the Council approves the Applicant's requeSt to remand the Baraya project back to
the Planning and Zoning Commission, Staff offers the following as considerations:
. This will essentially be a new application. The changes the Applicant is
proposing to make to this project are based onthe outcome of the Ten Mile
Area Charrette. The Charrette Land Use Plan calls for significant street
redesign and changes in land use for this site.
. New plans (plat and landscape), including an updated application package
(including new legal descriptions, and a revised application) will need to be
submitted to Staff.
. Nt:w nutil.:l;:s will have to be sent out by the Clerk's Office, and a new report
will have to be written.
. To help offset some of the costs associated with a remand and re-design of
this project, Staff recommends that some additional fees be paid by the
Applicant. Staff recommends that a $284 fee (the cost of noticing two
additional public hearings), a $20 per lot fee (a preliminary plat review fee
for the Planning and Public Works Departments), and a Fire Department
review fee of $160 plus $1 per lot, be paid by the Applicant. We are not
recommending the Applicant pay for any fees regarding the new
annexation/zoning designations, nor the base preliminary plat fee of$1276.
. The Commission agenda's are full until the first of 2007.
If the Council approves the Applicant's request. Staff recommends that the Applicant
submit a revised application lJackage to the City and pav the additional fees as
detailed above, and that the Commission public hearing date for the revised Barava
proiectbe JanuaIY4,2007.
