City Council Meeting Minutes September 20, 2005 Page 5 of 15 they require the fiscal impacts be closely evaluated. Criterion 'A' creates a requirement for all residential development applications to include a fiscal impact analysis. Staff discussed adding to the submittal requirements for development applications as established in Chapters 16 and 17 of the LMC. That would be forwarded for City Council review as an Ordinance Amendment at a later date. Section 2: Establishes the maximum biannual allocation of 250 residential units, along with a maximum of 150 units in any given calendar year. This section would be reviewed biannually in conjunction with Council's review of the Comprehensive Plan. Section 3: Establishes the residential allocation from October 1, 2005 through December 31,2006 at a maximum of 150 units. This section would be reviewed annually to establish the goal for the maximum number of residential permits for the following calendar year. Section 4: Provides a general framework for the City Manager to create rules to administer the residential phasing program. The rules would create a more specific framework for Council to prioritize the residential allocation, including a process whereby property owners/developers would submit their requests for an allocation of permits. Resolution No. 36, Series 1993 places certain controls on residential development, including residential annexations. Council repealed the provisions of that Resolution pertaining to an annual allocation of residential permits in 2000, but all other provisions of the resolution remain in place. With the adoption of the new Comprehensive Plan and residential phasing resolution, Staff recommended repealing Resolution No. 36, Series 1993. Three emails were received relative to the phasing plan from the following individuals: Michael Markel; Chris Hansen; and Rick Brew. PUBLIC COMMENT Ron Sackett, 625 August Drive, Louisville, CO asked if the redevelopment projects are included in those numbers. Planning Director Wood stated it would extend to all new residential projects, with no exemptions, other than the two currently platted lots or areas in the urban renewal districts. Mayor Sisk stated projects must meet the criteria and be approved by the Council. Michael Markel, 5723 Arapahoe Avenue, Boulder, CO voiced his support of the residential phasing plan. He noted both parties must make a commitment to the process in order for the plan to work. He supported a fair, equitable and predictable allocation process and a plan that reinforces the Comp Plan.
