The amendmends requested are as follows: 1. The PUD Development Plan will permit any of those uses in the B-2 Zoning district on lots 4, 5 & 6. Staff believes there are some permitted uses within the B-2 District which would not be appropriated for this PUD. The list was outlined in the Admininstrator’s Report. Staff also pointed out the PUD Development Plan was approved with one drive-through, located on the south side of Lot 5. It should be noted that this location remains the appropriate location for the one drive-through permitted with this PUD. 2. The Final Plan and Final Development Plan (also known as the PUD Site Plan) will be amended to reconfigure Lots 4 and 6. Staff explained the difference in setbacks and parking provided from what was originally approved and what is proposed. The only concern staff has is the type of use for Lot 4 would limit the parking available. Staff would like to recommend that the use on Lot 4 would be limited to what the number of parking spaces would allow for. Currently Lot 6 has a potential tenant which would not cause a concern with parking for their use. Buildng permit plans have been submitted for Lot 6 for a single story building. The building will include medical and office/retail uses. The architect confirmed there will be a medical use and 2 bays available for office or retail use. Staff recommends approval with the contigencies outlined in the Adminstrator’s Report. The board asked if staff would be comfortable reducing the requred 68 foot setback on the north side to 25 feet if the overhead utility would be vacated and relocated underground. Staff agreed. The board had concerns with allowing the cross access for parking from Lots 5 and 6 to accomidate parking for Lot 4. Pedestrians will have a long walk and cross the road to utilize that parking area. No one present to speak in favor of the PUD Amendment. No one present to speak against the PUD Amendment. MOTION: Mr. Coffey. Move for approval with staff’s recommendation with the additional modification of staff’s recommendation of B with reconfiguration of Lot 6 to also include only a one-story building permitted of no more than 9000 square feet. Staff asked if they wanted to include the north side property line of Lot 4 allowing a 25 foot setback if the easement is vacated and utilities relocated. Mr. Coffey agreed as that is staff’s recommendation as well.  3 SECONDED: Schlueter. VOICE ROLL CALL: 8 Ayes, 0 Nays, 0 Abstains. C.
