Zaremba: I move that we approve RZ 07-016, PP 07-016, to include the secondary access as described by the applicant. CUP 07-018, indicating 31 multi-family dwelling units, and MI 07-015, all relating to Gramercy Townhomes Subdivision and including all staff comments. Rountree: Second. De Weerd: I have a motion and a second to approve Items 13, 14, 15 and 16. Any discussion by Council? Hearing none, Mr. Berg. Roll-Call: Bird, yea; Rountree, yea; Zaremba, yea; Borton, yea. MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES. Item 17: Public Hearing: SHP 07-008 Request for Short Plat approval to create 2 building lots on 4.86 acres in a C-G zone for Gramercy by Kenai Partners, LLC - 1925 S. Wells Avenue: De Weerd: Item 17 is a Public Hearing on SHP 07-008. I will open this with staff comments. Canning: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, this is the Gramercy short plat and it's located at 925 South Wells Avenue on the east side of Mountain View High School. The property was previously platted as Lot 7, Block 3 of Gramercy Subdivision No. 1. The application before you tonight is a short plat for two commercial building lots on 4.86 acres in a C-G zone. Staff recommendation is for approval. The subject property meets all applicable -- applicability requirements for a short plat. We have not received any written testimony. The applicant has provided us with a written agreement of the conditions and to our knowledge there are no outstanding issues before Council. The odd shape of the lot line reflects the fact that it goes through the center of a building and accommodates different open space. So, there will be one single building -- or not open space, but common space within the building. So, it's just one building, but it will have a lot line going through it. And with that I will answer any questions Council may have. De Weerd: Council, any questions? Bird: I have none. Meridian City Council December 4, 2007 Page 37 of 77 De Weerd: Applicant comments? Council, any questions of the applicant? Does staff have questions of the applicant? Canning: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, I was a little concerned -- I know there is cross-access easements located on the underlying plat and I want to make sure the applicant was aware that those would stay with this plat. I'm getting nods of agreement. De Weerd: It appears that they don't have issue, but we will find out. If you will, please, state your name and address. McKay: Becky McKay, Engineering Solutions, 1029 North Rosario, Meridian. Yes, Madam Mayor, we do reflect all of the easements that we created on the -- on the original Gramercy No. 1. And, then, like staff said, the zig and the zag is to follow the firewall between the YMCA and Intermountain Orthopedic. And based on recommendations from Daunt, we needed to be absolutely perfect in the center of that firewall. And so that's why it looks so strange. De Weerd: And that's the technical term of zig and zag; right? McKay: That's what it looked like to me. De Weerd: Thank you. Council, any further information needed? Zaremba: Madam Mayor, have we asked the public if they have any comment? De Weerd: Is there any public testimony? Thank you. Zaremba: Madam Mayor, having heard all staff and applicant testimony, and given the public the opportunity to speak, I hereby move we close the Public Hearing on SHP 07- 008. Rountree: Second. De ,Weerd: I have a motion and a second to close the Public Hearing on Item 17. All those in favor say aye. All ayes. Motion carries. MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES. Zaremba: Madam Mayor?
