Planning Commission Meeting Minutes December 1211, 2019 Page 3 of 13 Ritchie stated that staff had discussed with the applicant providing a connection from Taylor. There is a trail on the west side of Pearl Izumi. Zuccaro added that it would not be ideal to encourage people to cross Highway 42 at that location and that the City would want to direct people to other crossings. Brauneis asked for additional questions. Seeing none, he asked for an applicant presentation or for questions of the applicant. Hearing none, he asked for public comment. Seeing none, he asked for closing statements. None. Moline stated that he was in support of the request and did not have a problem with the waiver. Hoefner agreed. Rice stated that it was a good project and he commented that he appreciated the attention to the architecture on the north side of the building so that driving down highway 42 did not confront a bunch of service ramps. He thought that the best way to clarifiy the parking issue was to include a note on the PUD to the effect that "parking will be brought into line with the ratios consistent with the uses that the building is put to." Williams supported Commissioner Rice's addition of the parking note and that otherwise she was in support and she observed that the building was a nice design. Brauneis appreciated the highway 42 orientation and the detail of the project. Rice moved to approve Resolution 18, series 2019 with the condition that staff prepare a note for the PUD that reflects that the parking will be rendered consistent with the use of the building. Williams seconded. Approved unanimously by voice vote. Vote approved unanimously by roll call vote. 824 South Street Special Review Use: A request for approval of a Special Review Use to allow Use Group #8: Hotels or motels including restaurants and other incidental commercial uses inside the principal building. (Resolution 20, Series 2019) • Applicant: Hartronft Associates, p.c. • Case Manager: Lisa Ritchie, Senior Planner Ritchie reviewed the project background outlined the Special Review Use is to allow a hotel use with 7-9 rooms in the new addition and that the existing house would be converted to food prep and service. She presented the Special Review Use criteria and noted staff finds the proposal is consistent with each criterion. She noted staff evaluated the proposal for parking standards for Downtown and compared the hotel use to an office use. The PUD includes nine parking spaces, four on site and five as cash in lieu. The City is also looking at restriping the adjacent South Street parking to be in parking and provide five additional spaces. Brauneis confirmed that there were no conflicts of interest to disclose. 5
