Item 3:
Consent Agenda:
Rohm: Thank you. The first item on the agenda is the adoption of the agenda and we
are going to have one change tonight. Items No. 10 and 11, public hearings for
Eastwood Subdivision, are both to be continued until the regularly scheduled meeting of
Planning and Zoning for December 21 st, 2006. So, anybody that's here tonight to listen
to or give testimony for that application, it is not going to be heard tonight. We received
a letter from the applicant requesting a continuance and we will not be hearing item, so
that one will be stricken from the agenda. The third item on the agenda is the Consent
Agenda and we have no Consent Agenda. So, with that being said could I get a motion
to accept the agenda as amended?
Zaremba: So moved.
Moe: Second.
Rohm: It's been moved and seconded to accept the agenda as amended. All those in
favor say aye. Opposed same sign? Motion carried.

Hood: Thank you, Mr. Chair, Members of the Commission. I am pinch hitting tonight for
Justin Lucas. He is in Denver right now at the ULI conference, so I will be presenting
his staff report on Creamline Park Subdivision. The project consists of annexation and
zoning to C-G and I-L. There are 8.74 acres on the south side of the development that
are proposed for the C-G zoning designation and 24.01 acres proposed for the I-L, light
industrial zoning classification. All of this property is currently zoned RUT in Ada
County. The site is located on the north side of Franklin Road near the northeast corner
of Franklin and Linder Roads, approximately 350 feet east of Linder. Highlighted there
in the teal. Adjacent land uses and zoning. North is a retirement community and future
multi-family development, zoned L-O. East is a lumber storage, 84 Lumber, and vacant
land down along Franklin Road. And I think they have some -- there is some storage of
trailers I think out there, too. To the south is Franklin Road. Directly to the south. And,
then, Crestwood Estates Subdivision, a residential subdivision, is directly across
Franklin Road from this site. To the west are single family homes and some home
occupations. Those are zoned R-1 in Ada County. There is also a day care zoned L-O
and some of the properties are vacant or underdeveloped. The one right on the corner
is zoned C-C, on the northeast corner of Franklin and Linder, zoned C-C. There is the
day care -- I guess I better point some of these out. We will probably talk about this a
little bit more. There is a day care that was approved maybe three, four years ago,
something like that, right by the railroad tracks. A lot of these homes -- folks have some
signs up -- I think someone makes like wooden chairs and kind of low impact home
occupations, if you will. I have never really seen them be too intensive of uses. They
