Planning Commission Meeting Minutes August 9, 2018 Page 9 of 12 Dean laid out options for the Commission to consider: (1) Require the full land dedication fee be paid at the time of the plat. (2) Accept deferment request as proposed. This option will help catalyze development in this area by opening up commercial lots. (3) Require a different amount of the Public Land Dedication Fee to be paid. Staff does not know if the applicant would agree to this option. Dean addressed Hsu's emailed question about precedent. Staff has not had time to make a thorough evaluation. Clementine Filing No. 2 requested a deferment tied to the building permit for each property under the same set of regulations. It was supported by City Council. Dean asked for the commissioners' opinions on the two options for trail design. Staff recommended approval with one condition. The recommendation is subject to how the Commission wants to move forward with the public land dedication fee. Moline asked who determined the ratio of acres and cash in lieu. Dean replied that the City and the applicant could both determine the ratio and whether the City wants the land. Moline asked about the PCZD agreement process. Dean stated that whatever changes make it through Council would need to be reflected in the PCZD agreement. Rice asked if dedicating land for public use had been considered as an alternative option to the land dedication. Dean replied that future property owners could have a design that includes additional land dedication, but the City had not identified any land that the City would like to acquire at this time. Rice pointed out that the Archdiocese needed to respond to that. He also asked if the known loose ends as listed in the staff report— concrete drainage base issues, dimensions for access path to fire hose, signage issues — should be built in as conditions to be addressed before the final PUD. Dean replied that since this was a preliminary review phase, staff did not want to become too constricted by additional conditions. She added that the staff suggestions were in the record. Rice stated that staff's approach worked but that the issues should be addressed in some way before the final PUD. Hsu asked when the City would know if the traffic signal was warranted.
