Planning Commission <br />Meeting Minutes <br />September 22, 2022 <br />Page 8 of 17 <br />property. This has been the most recent structure for joint City/County purchase of open <br />space properties. <br />Request for information on when the Paradise Lane properties were acquired by the <br />applicant, at what price, and development potential of the property. <br />The 47.4-acre Paradise Lane properties were owned by Phillips66 along with part of the <br />current owner's overall property when purchased from Phillips 66 by the applicant. <br />Boulder County Clerk and Recorder records show that the entire Redtail Ridge property, <br />including the Paradise Lane properties, were purchased in 2020 for $34,930,000. <br />Development potential for the properties is addressed through the NW Parkway <br />Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA), which is discussed in more detail in the September <br />8, 2022 staff report. The IGA allows residential development at one dwelling per 4.5 <br />acres, allowing up to 10 residential lots to develop on the properties. <br />Commissioner Questions of Staff. <br />Moline asks how we ensure that commitments made by the applicant are followed <br />through on. <br />Zuccaro says it would need to be in a development agreement. He suggests making a <br />condition that those would be included in an agreement. <br />Howe asks if staff can review and comment on the changes to the sewer lift station. Will <br />that affect the city as a whole? <br />Zuccaro says there would be an agreement to expand the treatment plant to <br />accommodate the development. It would affect the city in that the treatment plant would <br />need additional staff and maintenance. He mentions regarding the sustainability <br />commitments and that the anticipated hospital property is excluded. The applicant is <br />willing to have some modified language to account for that. If the hospital does not <br />locate on the site, some of the commitments could be expanded. The hospital will have <br />to go through a PUD process. <br />Brauneis says currently, those revised sustainability commitments are very light and <br />short. We would expect to see more detail at the PUD stage. <br />Zuccaro says from staff's standpoint, when we worked on the GDP last year, having <br />sustainability commitments affects the character and design of the development. The <br />applicant has proposed sustainability efforts in the plat. <br />Howe says we have the ability in the city to expand our sewer and water treatment <br />facility correct? <br />Zuccaro agrees. <br />Krantz speaks on the industrial use on page 25 in the packet. Is this an abbreviated <br />type of industrial use allowed from Section 16.72.090? <br />Zuccaro says when you have zoning ordinances that are additive to each other, the <br />most restrictive is going to take precedent. That is one way to look at it. If these types of <br />facilities were to be built, they would have to be under those restrictive standards as <br />well. We do not have a proposed use in front us but when the city does, staff would <br />make sure it fits with the city's use standards. He reiterated that there are no uses <br />proposed, only potential or likely uses. <br />Krantz asks how to evaluate the uses. <br />Zuccaro says staff's opinion on this is that uses are set through the code and the GDP. <br />Those uses are provided and any of them are allowed. There are no restrictions on ratio <br />of uses. <br />10 <br />
