Council. Therefore, Staff forwards a resolution (No.13) of disapproval of a Preliminary PUD Development Plan and a Preliminary Replat to Planning Commission with findings 2, 3, 4 and 5, with the understanding that any reference to a SRU action or Condition No. 1 be stricken from the resolution. Applicant Summary: Jon Lee addressed the approved PCZD plan which says that this area, including Special Review Uses shall be Industrial Design Guidelines. It shall be Commercial Design Guidelines if it’s office. Mr. Lee feels that they should be dealing with Industrial Design Guidelines, however they are not available at this time. Mr. Lee is unclear as to what standards they are to be following. Public Hearing Closed/Commission Comments: Commissioner Pritchard is in favor of giving the Staff and the applicant the opportunity to try to work this out. Commissioner Klahn is doubtful at this point that they would be able to come with something that is solid. Commissioner Lipton would also favor a continuance. He would also like to see some major progress made, especially on the architecture. Motion made by Commissioner Klahn to approve Resolution No. 13, Series 1999, which is a resolution disapproving the Preliminary PUD Development Plan and Preliminary Replat for lots 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6, Block 7, The Business Center At CTC. Chairman Boulet suggested that all reference to the Special Review Use within that motion be stricken. Commissioner Klahn added that with the additional basis No. 1 being that the applicant has not effectively addressed the issues regarding sidewalks and design issues pursuant to the PUD ordinance. Commissioner Lipton added a friendly amendment to state it as saying “Adequate provisions must made for a pedestrian walks, malls and landscaped places to prevent pedestrian use of vehicular ways.” Accepted by Sarah Klahn. The remainder of the conditions remain as suggested in the Staff motion. Seconded by Robert McAllister. Commissioner Lipton asked Paul Wood to incorporate a parking condition. Paul Wood stated that there is enough parking on this lot to park 100% office and to the extent that this would compromise landscaping of 25% there is some concern as to how it will be administered. The concern is that the smaller building may be taken out and then there will be two detention ponds and a huge parking lot. 8
