Ms. Merideth Hildreth: Presented Cases 22-003 and 22-004 together as both cases pertain to the same property.

Chair Storey introduced Cases 22-005 PPLAT and 22-006 PPLAT Commissioner Lessard recused herself from Cases 22-005, 22-006, and 22-007 7 Mr. Spencer Aiken: Presented Cases 22-005 and 22-006. The two proposed preliminary plats are congruent with objectives and strategies from the city’s Comprehensive Plan. The two projects will facilitate infill development and create more housing, which are both urgent needs of the city. Commissioner Henderson: Why do these plats develop lots 1 and 7 instead of other areas of the preliminary master plan sketch? Mr. Kevin Maevers: Developing lots 1 and 7 creates a grand entrance from Country Club Road. Commissioner Henderson: Another concern is on Case 22-007 (Unit 7). One side of the street is Mesa Oak Dr and around the corner is Magnolia Lane. That is confusing because part of the street name changes partway through, then changes back to Magnolia Lane. Mr. Kevin Maevers: We can fix that as we handle addressing in our office. Chair Storey: There is a Magnolia Lane on both sides of Nevada Ave. Mr. Kevin Maevers: We will take care of the issue before going forward with the Final Plat.

Mr. Dan Daftola: This is a project that has taken a lot of time, and we hope to make the project perfect with your input, as well as from the input of city staff. Mr. Kevin Maevers: This is a significantly improved development from what we’ve seen in a long time. Mr. Mike Espiritu: I support these two cases, and hope you vote in favor of both. Commissioner Henderson: I assume the Engineering Department and Planning Division is okay with the current ingress/egress. Mr. Louis Najar: Vehicles come in and out of Country Club Road. It will be a two lane road, and we will have acceleration and deceleration lanes at Nevada Ave. 8 Chair Storey: Is there anyone wishing to speak against Case 22-005?

PUBLIC COMMENTS Commissioner Henderson: I don’t see any green space in these three zoning cases. Also, I would hope a project this large contacts the school district. Mr. Kevin Maevers: This property is immediately north of the OMA. Likely won’t develop pocket parks here, but the area will be very close to the best park area in the region (OMA). We have a meeting with the School District tomorrow to discuss how they should be doing their facilities planning. Commissioner Henderson: Will the developer pay a park fee? Ms. Merideth Hildreth: If the developer does not develop any greenspace, they will be required to pay a park fee. I.
