Page 2 of 10
Mr. Morris stated Staff has recommended the applicant add another off-street parking
space in the front yard for loading and unloading. They are already operating to care for
up to six children. They are adding an additional six trips coming and going to what is
happening now. The site must meet the licensing criteria from Youth and Family
Services. One of the requirements is to provide a copy of that license to Zoning Staff. Mr.
Morris stated he recommends approval subject to the conditions of approval listed on
page 4 (of Exhibit B Staff Report).
Commissioner Gross asked Mr. Najar to give his assessment on the parking situation.
Mr. Najar stated he has passed by the property several times to assess the parking
situation and has not seen a lot of traffic, only one or two cars in the yard, and it has
been quiet. Mr. Najar stated he agrees with the condition to install an additional parking
space. Mr. Najar advised that six additional children would not be detrimental to the
neighborhood. It is a residential street. The City has permitted similar daycares in
residential neighborhoods. If CYFD licenses this daycare, Mr. Najar stated he would
concur.
Vice Chair Armstrong: The packet shows that fourteen property owners were notified
and three protest letters were submitted.
Mr. Morris: Two of the protest letters did not provide addresses. The letters were
dropped off at the office. When opened, the letters did not indicate who dropped off the
letters.
Commissioner Storey asked Mr. Garrin, since he lives next door, if he has noticed any
issues with the traffic or other problems with the existing daycare for six children.
Mr. Garrin answered he wanted to speak on their behalf. If Mr. Espinoza hadn’t said
anything, Mr. Garrin reported he wouldn’t have known there were six children next door.
Mr. Garrin stated he is not seeing extra traffic. He further stated he didn’t notice the first
six and doesn’t think he will notice the additional six children. After listening to the
testimony at the hearing, his concerns about traffic have been addressed.

MOTION – 18-003 CUP
Commissioner Storey made a motion to approve Case Number 18-003, an application
for a Conditional Use Permit for a Major Home Occupation daycare up to twelve
children along with the land use and zoning considerations, the findings of facts, and
include the staff recommendations along with the testimony we have received tonight.
Second by Commissioner Childress.
The motion passed by a voice vote of five to zero. (Absent: Chair Brown, Commissioner
McDaniel)
Mr. Espinoza stated that the daycare has up to four clients at this moment. It doesn’t
create congestion in the street. There’s a group of kids that get dropped off at different
times. We have three separate plays areas and adequate room, a nice big back yard, arts
and crafts, plenty to eat, a sleeping area, and education area, and the daycare has
already been certified through CYFD. If we start watching more kids, we want to be
licensed for that.
Mr. Morris stated appeals to the City Council must be made in writing by noon on
Thursday to the City Clerk.
2. CASE 18-004 VAR: A Request for a Variance to Rear Yard Setback, Street Side Yard
Setback, Rear Yard Coverage for Garage, and non-standard Drivepad. Legal Description:
Subd: STEVEALLEN #2 REDIV Block: 1 Lot: 6 BK 585 PG 1137 REC. Property Address: 17

Second by Commissioner Childress.
The motion passed by a voice vote of five to zero. (Absent: Chair Brown, Commissioner
McDaniel)
Vice Chair Armstrong: Is there anyone wishing to speak in favor of Case: 18-004?
In Favor:
Michael Garcia
Vice Chair Armstrong asked Mr. Garcia when he started building his garage.
Mr. Garcia answered about this time last year.
Planning & Zoning Commission March 27, 2018 Minutes
Page 4 of 10
Commissioner Gross asked Mr. Garcia if he had a licensed contractor build it.
Mr. Garcia answered that the company he bought the garage from supplied the
contractor to install it.
Commissioner Gross asked Mr. Garcia if he knew if the contractor was a licensed
contractor.
Mr. Garcia answered “No, Sir.” Mr. Garcia stated he bought the garage from Affordable
Portables. When he paid for the building, installation was included, and Affordable
Portables sent a crew to install it.
Commissioner Gross said that unfortunately, we’ve seen that on many occasions. He
asked Mr. Garcia if the City Red Tagged the garage.
Mr. Garcia said the garage had already been completed when the City told him he
needed a permit.
Mr. Morris said that Code Enforcement came across it and started the process.
Commissioner Storey asked Mr. Garcia what the building is used for and about the
existing garage.
Mr. Garcia said he uses the garage to park his truck for independence and security. The
existing garage has a ledge he cannot navigate and is too small to park a vehicle. The
little storage will be removed so the garage can be ten feet from the house.
Commissioner Gross asked if the Building Inspector inspected the building or just red
tagged it? And further asked if it is on a concrete footing?
Mr. Garcia stated it was built on a six inch concrete pad.
There was further discussion about the contractor and dealer and the building permit
process.
Mr. Morris: Staff has concerns about the steepness of the drive pad, ADA, and the
closeness of the power lines.
Commissioner Taylor asked what the main issues are for the variance request.
Planning & Zoning Commission March 27, 2018 Minutes
Page 5 of 10
Mr. Najar stated there are two main concerns. The first concern is the potential fire issue
which will improve if Mr. Garcia tears down the old storage area to provide a ten foot
distance between the house and garage. Mr. Najar further stated he would like to see if
Excel is okay with the powerline being six inches from top of the garage roof. Mr. Najar
stated he doesn’t like the setbacks but could probably accept the rear yard and side yard
setbacks.
Commissioner Storey questioned the lack of provision for ADA cross slopes across the
driveway and no sidewalk.
Commissioner Taylor stated he thinks Mr. Garcia acted in good faith to get the garage
and the negligence is on the contractor and supplier. Commissioner Taylor posed a
question to City Attorney to see what the City can do to put pressure on the vendor to
remedy the problems with the construction of this building.
Mr. Patterson suggested the City take up the issue with Chaves County.
Mr. Morris state the company is located in the ETZ (Extraterritorial Zone).
Ms. Hildreth stated that Staff has contacted Affordable Portables and verified they do
have a business license to conduct business in the City. However, the subcontractor did
not have a business license. The course of action Staff will take is to send out letters on
City letterhead to the dealers who sell portable buildings. The letters will state that a
building permit needs to be pulled before a building is installed; and the City will ask that
the letter be given to any customer in the city limits who signs a contract for a portable
building. Third party contractors who install the buildings will need to register with the
City and obtain a City Business License.
Commissioner Storey stated that is well and good going forward. That doesn’t help Mr.
Garcia now. They are doing business in the City even though the business is in the ETZ. It
seems like the City would have recourse on behalf of Mr. Garcia.
Mr. Morris stated it is not just this one, there are others situations like this out there. We
need to act on this one and address all the other vendors of these type of portables out
there.
Mr. Patterson stated it depends on if there is a violation of the contract between the
property owner and the supplier. The applicant could look at unfair trade practices and
make complaint to the Attorney General through his own legal counsel.
Planning & Zoning Commission March 27, 2018 Minutes
Page 6 of 10
Vice Chair Armstrong stated he thinks Mr. Garcia purchased this building in good faith.
Unfortunately, the company didn’t install it the way it should have been done. At the
end, this process rests entirely with Mr. Garcia going forward because he is at the
meeting because someone install the building the wrong way.
Mr. Garcia stated he was planning to have Xcel move the electric line and tear down the
garage storage area.
Vice Chair Armstrong: Is there anyone wishing to speak against Case 18-004?
Against:
None
Mr. Morris stated if this case is approved, approval should include the conditions raised
by Mr. Najar and issuance of a building permit issued with a final inspection.
Vice Chair Armstrong asked if there were any (written) protests.
Mr. Morris: No.
Mr. Najar: If the Commission were to approve this case, he would recommend the
owner proceed with demolition of existing garage-storage area to provide the ten foot
distance and proceed with Excel moving the service drop to the house so it’s safe for
everyone concerned.
Commissioner Taylor: What happens next if we deny this?
Mr. Morris stated that like other structures that have been red tagged if no variance
approved it has to be removed or modified in such a way to not need the variances.
Mr. Najar stated that if the owner demolishes the existing garage-storage, it would get
rid of some of the variances.
Vice Chair Armstrong asked if the Commission requested removal of the building and
Excel to move power lines, could the Commission table this case until those two items
are done.
Mr. Najar stated that to table the case for thirty, sixty, or ninety days to give the owner
time to do those two actions would be an excellent recommendation.

MOTION – 18-004 VAR
Commissioner Taylor made a motion to table Case Number 18-004 with the removal of
the existing garage-storage area and working with Excel to remove the electrical line
problem.

The motion passed by a voice vote of five to zero. (Absent: Chair Brown, Commissioner
McDaniel)
3. NOMINATION OF P&Z COMMISSION MEMBERS TO FILL VACANCIES: The Planning &
Zoning Commission will nominate three applicants to serve a four-year term.
Vice Chair Armstrong stated that three Commissioners terms expire at the end of this
month: Toby Gross, Ralph Brown, and Shirley Childress.
Commissioner Storey stated there was another applicant by the name of Jana Lessard
who thought she had applied, but the application didn’t go through. She would like to
serve and to be considered.
The Commission decided to choose from the list of four that successfully submitted an
application.
Mr. Najar asked if the Commission can nominate all three or can they recommend all
four?
Mr. Morris said they can nominate all four and the Mayor will make the selection.

MOTION – NOMINATION OF PLANNING & ZONING

SERVE FOUR-YEAR TERMS
Commissioner Gross motioned to nominate all four candidates to serve on the
Planning & Zoning Commission for one four-year term each, and to forward the list of
nominated candidates to the Mayor for recommendation to the City Council:
Second by Commissioner Storey.
The motion passed by a voice vote of five to zero. (Absent: Chair Brown, Commissioner
McDaniel)
Mr. Najar stated that any of the four would make a good Commissioner and each of the
candidates is strong in the community, forward thinking, and trying to build the
community of Roswell.
Vice Chair Armstrong mentioned Jana Lessard would make a good Commissioner and it
was unfortunate that her application didn’t get in.
Mr. Holloman stated that the only thing in the ordinance is that the Mayor appoint and
the City Council approve. Mr. Holloman suggested talking to the City Clerk about adding
Jana Lessard’s name to be considered by the Mayor.
Mr. Morris and Mr. Najar suggested the Commission could amend the vote to include all
five candidates on the list.
Commissioner Gross amended his motion to nominate a list of five candidates instead
of a list of four candidates to serve on the Planning & Zoning Commission for one four-
year term each, and to forward the list of nominated candidates to the Mayor for
recommendation to the City Council:
Second by Commissioner Storey.

III. Intent of Petition:
The owner and agent of the residential property at 2003 W Juniper Street are requesting a
Conditional Use Permit to increase the size of an existing in-home daycare from six children (minor
home occupation) to twelve children as a major home occupation in the R-1 Zoning District.
IV. Land Use and Zoning Considerations:
1. The property under consideration is an internal lot currently zoned R-1.
2. The owner has no outside employees at this time. The occupants of the house operate
the day care.
3. Zoning Ordinance Article 28: HOME OCCUPATIONS Section 6. Standards and Regulations
for Major Home Occupations specifies: “B. No more than one employee, plus the
inhabitants of the residence shall be on the premises at one time to conduct the Major
Home Occupation.” “E. Group Day Care Homes for
Children shall be limited to more than 6 but less than 12
children, as determined by the State. The Planning and
Zoning Commission shall determine allowable business
hours base on the nature of the business.
4. This in-home daycare is considered a twenty-four/7 (24/7)
daycare. During weekdays from approximately 7:00 a.m.,
to 4:00 p.m., there are six or fewer children in the home
daycare. From approximately 4:00 p.m., until
approximately 11:00 p.m., the home daycare may care for
more than six children but no more than twelve children.
The hours of operation is to accommodate parents who
work in the oil field or have afternoon into evening shifts.
The in-home daycare would like to be available to provide
childcare on weekends as needed.
5. The drivepad at the residence is approximately thirty feet
(30’) long from the façade of the house to back of sidewalk and approximately ten feet
(10’) wide for approximately twenty feet (20’) behind the sidewalk onto the property.
6. The property is approximately 60’ wide by 105’ in depth.

2. Notification of the public hearing was mailed via certified mail with return receipt
requested to property owners of record, as shown by the Chaves County Assessor, with
lots or land within one-hundred (100) feet of the area under consideration, excluding
public rights-of-way.
3. This agenda which includes this case has been posted at City Hall and on the City of
Roswell’s website for over seventy-two (72) hours as required by State of New Mexico
law for a public hearing.
4. At the time of this writing, the Planning & Zoning Office had received two (2) handwritten
protests, and zero (0) verbal protests, and zero (0) written letters of support.
VI. Staff Recommendation:
Based on the findings of fact, the nature of the proposed land use consideration, the
surrounding land uses and zoning districts, and the regulations established in the Zoning
Ordinance, Staff recommends approval of Zoning Case 18-003 CUP to allow a Major Home
Occupation for a Daycare for no more than twelve children and one employee outside of
family members on the premises at a time with the following conditions: that the curb cut
and paved driveway be widened with a City permit per City Standards to a minimum of
eighteen feet (18’) in width by a minimum of eighteen feet (18’) in length per the Parking
Standards specified in the Zoning Code’s Building and Performance Standards within one-
hundred twenty days (120) days of approval of the minutes from this hearing; and the
applicant provide to the City Zoning Office a copy of the license for up to twelve children
issued by CYFD (Children Youth and Families Division).
VII. Action by the Planning & Zoning Commission:

Setback.
6. Garage is situated approximately on the Street Side Yard property line with approximately
zero foot setback.

discuss their process. Staff has invited the dealer to visit the Planning & Zoning Office to
discuss ways to avoid future installations of non-complying structures without permits.

Engineering Office, do not meet City specifications, and are not ADA compliant.
