And I'll turn it over to Miss Selene for the staff summary report. Thank you, chairman and commissioners. The initial use permit CU application has been submitted by Brennan and Rebecca Clark to allow for a guest house in conjunction with a residence located at 1860 West Miller, that being APN

309-37-68C. Per the records from Navajo County, the subject property was divided in February 2024 into a parcel measuring 1.21 acres or 52,77 square ft and is zoned R17X single family residential manufactured homes excluded 7,000 ft. The applicant intends to construct uh a detached guest house, a living space of,232 ft for a family member alongside their main residence, which will have 2,34 square ft of living area. According to city code, guest houses are defined as living spaces that consist of one or more rooms designated in an and intended for occupancy as separate quarters. These include facilities for cooking, sleeping and sanitation and may be used utilized for income purposes or not. It also states that both the principal and guest house shall be served by a common single electric and water meter under city code 1950.270 270 A2 one additional single family dwelling for use as a guest house not to exceed the total living area of the main dwelling provided that the total intensity of land use shall be a minimum of 8,000 square ft of lot area per dwelling unit is permitted with a valid conditional use permit. The conditional use permit application for the guest house located at 1860 West Miller, that being APN 309-38-068C, submitted by Brandon and Rebecca Clark, meets all the necessary standards established by the city code, including minimum lot size and maximum guest size house. According to the site plan, the guest house is set back approximately 32 feet 10 in from the east property line and 25 feet 4 in from

the north property line. The current zoning of the surrounding properties include north R17X, South R17X, East R17X, West R17X. The current land uses of the surrounding property includes north residential, south vacant residential, east residential, west vacant residential. Transmitt membles were sent to all effective agencies. One comment was made regarding the size limit of the guest house which was addressed. Timber Mesa Fire made the comment that sprinklers and/or a fire hydrant were recommended but not required. The property was posted and the letters were sent to all property owners within 300 ft of the subject property. No applicable comments were received after reviewing the standards for review, finding effect of facts, discussions with the applicant and the city of city zoning city of Xolo zoning and land ordinances and the city of Xolo general plan. Staff recommends that the planning and zoning commission approve conditional use permit 602-04-272 submitted by Brandon and Rebecca Clark to allow for a guest house in conjunction with a residence at 1860 West Miller that being APN 309-37-068C subject to the following conditions. One, uh, all all development shall comply with all f applicable federal, state, and local requirements, including building code and fire codes to the proposed guest house shall conform to all development standards of the zoning district in which it exists, including primary resident setbacks, and shall utilize a shared driveway and utility connections. Three, a maximum of one dwelling unit per property area may be utilized for income purposes.

Uh, thank you, Miss Helen. Open it up to the commission for questions for staff. Mr. Chair, if if I could before we get into questions. Uh, just one correction on the staff report. Uh, item number 10 where we indicate no applicable comments were received. Uh, we did receive one phone call specifically for this uh, conditional use permit from an area neighbor. Uh they were just asking general questions. No uh no opposition was received. Thank you, director. Other questions for staff. So just clarification, I see on item three on staff recommendations. Um they're wanting to the clerks want to put it in for a family member, but they would be able to VBO this at some point as it states. Correct. Correct. So, under city code, uh, a guest house through a conditional use permit may be used for, uh, income purposes, whether that's short-term or long-term, they would have that ability to rent that out, uh, and in the future if a family member was no longer utilizing it. Correct. Mr. Adams. Yeah. Um, Mr. Tasses, is there anything odd about this? It seems pretty cut and dry. I don't see anything abnormal. Uh is this b pretty basic in this scenario compared to what we've done in the past? Uh it's pretty straightforward. The lot size exceeds the minimum lot sizes required. Uh the setbacks that they're proposing for both the primary residence as well as the proposed guest house exceed the minimum requirements. Um so from a a city code standpoint, there is really nothing outstanding on this application. Thank you. Uh, director, I I do have one question and I'll try not to confuse the

public because I'm going to jump ahead a little bit to the next item which is adjacent to this one. Um, but I see that there's it seems like there's a single shared driveway off of West Miller for both parcels. Have did you have any discussions with the applicant? I'm happy to ask the applicant as well on um there was nothing in the staff conditions about the the access. It said single share driveway. Was that for both of these properties or just for a single share driveway for both of these residences on this parcel? Right. So on the end of West Miller, uh there's what's referred to as a hammerhead turnaround. Um that is we consider that to be a city accepted um turnaround there. So they meet the requirements for city street frontage. Um each property, so when you have a a primary residence with a guest house, city code requires that you have a single driveway that enters the property from the city street. Um it can then split off and serve both the guest home with one arm of the split and the primary residence with another arm. The intent is that we don't uh start adding multiple driveways onto public streets, that the one driveway suffices for the entire property. In this case, um both this item and the next item, they are, I believe, looking to do a single driveway actually coming off that would end up serving the the subject property that we're discussing currently as well as the property that we'll be discussing as part of the next budget uh agenda item. Vice Roberts. So, will that driveway serve both properties then? Right. That's the intent. And if they do that legally, how do we guarantee that one or both of those prop that both of those

properties have access? And we've run into that in the past with landlocked properties. So, so they both a city street. So, whether the driveway was shared or not, they both have access to a city street. It really would be incumbent upon the two property owners to record an easement uh so that future property owners would be able to utilize continue to utilize the same driveway. I have a question. Commissioner Whipple. Um is it common for a property like this to share utilities with both um dwellings? So, um, again, under city code, the primary dwelling as well as the guest home, um, are required to share utilities. Um, it's really kind of, I guess, an effort to ensure that the homes are not rented out to two separate people. um that if they share a common electric meter, if they share a common water meter, then it's again more likely that the uh owner will reside in one and utilize the other as a guest unit, rental, that type of thing. Yeah. Okay. Um, has there prop been proper procedures done to make sure that, you know, there's adequate power, adequate water, you know, for those, you know, a typical home usually runs a 200 amp meter. Can both houses be run on that 200 amp meter or should it be upgraded? You know, those kind of things are questions, you know, you want to make sure you have enough power to supply both. I I would defer that question to the applicant. They have submitted building plans to the city for both uh the primary as well as the guest unit. Um, so those have been under review. Good. Okay. Just Yeah. I can wait for the Well, are they in are the properties across the street from each other going to be on separate

meters and separate So the the property to the north, which is the property we're discussing currently, they will be on one set of meters and one set of utility services. the property to the south which is the one that we'll be discussing next. They will be on their own separate uh utility services answers my question. Thank you. Are there any questions for the applicant? All right. Seeing none, I will open it up. If there's any members of the public who would wish to speak on this agenda item, uh you may do so at this time. I just have a question. Uh, yes. Just come up to the to the microphone and you can just state your name and address for the record. Jill Scoffl, 1740 West Nicholas. And I just want to know um because we got here just a little bit late, but um so on each of these lots, are they just building a guest home on each one or they have to do the main house and a guest house? Thank you. Um I mean, is the main house already there that they're putting a guest they're going to add a guest house? I'll let uh Director Trias answer that question. Yes, thank you, Chair. Um so we have on the overhead um kind of outlined in red the property that we're discussing. It should be on the monitor. Yeah. Yeah. Um so they access off of West Miller. Um so there is no access onto Nicholas. Right. Uh currently the property is vacant. There is no home on the property at this time. What they are requesting um is to be able to build a primary home for their for their use, the applicant's use. uh as well as a guest unit on the same property. So

ultimately there would be two homes okay on the same property both owned by the same individual and the guest home would be smaller. Uh it's approximately 1,200 square ft is the size of the guest home and includes a garage. It looked like there was a garage on the guest house. So um Mr. Mr. Chair, we did include the elevations for the proposed guest unit was on the the overhead. So, it looks like there is um so a two-bedroom cottage style with an attached garage is what's being proposed there. Okay. I was just curious since we live nearby. Yep. We were just hoping that it wouldn't be real noisy or something if there were Airbnb or something like that. Thank you. Any other public comment on this agenda item? Seeing none, I'll bring it back to the commission for any further discussion or a motion on this agenda item. [Music] I can make a motion. I have a motion by Commissioner Wilson. I move to approve CO CUP 60204272 submitted by Brandon and Rebecca Clark to allow for a guest house in conjunction with a residence located at 1860 West Miller that being APN 30937068C subject to staff recommendations. I have a motion. Do I have a second? I have a second by uh Commissioner Whipple. All those in favor say I. I. And that passes unanimously. Director Tragas. Uh yes. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

We did not receive any comments uh either phone calls, emails, letters. Uh, no comments were received. Mr. Director Traascus, I'll go ahead and ask my normal question. Uh, I don't see anything abnormal here. Um, is there anything that stuck out or that staff is concerned about? Uh, not particularly. You'll notice that, uh, we reference up to 40 units. Uh, that's based on the total area that will be available for the apartments. Uh essentially we need to be able to see that they've got that 2500 square feet per unit that will be um available. That does include the footprint of the building. That includes open space. That includes the parking lot. Uh any detention areas, landscape areas. So there's quite a few things that go into that. Um but that's something we would need to verify as we move forward. Thank you. Is there any concern on this um going forward? Change point vacates the area, whatever. And we've got apartment buildings, although they are valuable, but they're onebedroom, not two-bedroom, change of hands. You got a couple two bedrooms, but mainly primarily onebedrooms. Is there is there a concern there that you know in its positioning in the community where it's at or no? So the as indicated in the the staff report um they're proposing currently two buildings each with 20 units a piece

for a total of 40 uh apartments on the property. Each building would be comprised of 16 one-bedroom and four two-bedroom units. So they are majority singlebedroom units on that. Um we've not received not nobody has expressed any concern over primarily singlebedroom units versus majority multi-bedroom units. Okay. Following up on following up on Commissioner Hatch's question. If what if change point was to leave the area and sell those properties to somebody else in today's market, what would be an approximate rent of a property like that? Commissioner Hash, can you give me an idea like the rents of it? Uhhuh. Do I sell I'm wondering if they would kind of fit our definition of a housing project. Yeah. So, uh the workforce housing incentives that are available, um those are available for apartments for tenants that meet specific criteria under the existing uh proposal. I'm not sure that this project would necessarily qualify. I'm not saying that it wouldn't. Um, you know, there's nothing to say that it couldn't be used for workforce housing in the future if for whatever reason this, you know, changed uses. You're doing two phases, right? So, I assume one building and then another building. Which building first? Closest to Penrod or furthest away? West. West. So, closest to Penrod first. If you're gonna answer a question, just

come up to the microphone so we can get it on the record. Jeff Oaks. I'm the CEO of Change Integrated Health. Um, we've been around since 1966. So, I don't foresee us going anywhere anytime soon. So, we've been in the community for about 60 years. Um, employ 250 more people. So, um, yeah. I have I'm sure Robert So your tenants that will be in these units are going through rehab of sorts or you're trying to provide transitional housing. Is that No, no, it's it's it's just apartments. So there could be individuals receiving behavioral health services, but it's not a requirement. So Oh, so it's straight on commercial viability andor coming into your not a licensed facility. It's just rentals. Exactly. You want a place, we'll rent it to you. We we happen to own the building next to it. We're renovating that to have a clinic there. So, um but yeah, that's the intent. So, these then Commissioner Wilson, sorry. So, it's not supportive housing or some of it is supportive housing for No, it's apartments. Yeah. Okay. It's a for-profit enterprise. Well, the intent is to provide some supported behavioral health services, but it's not a licensed facility at all. It's it's their apartments. Well, I know that you have homes that have, you know, if they're receiving services, you allow them to stay in the the home. Those are licensed. Okay. Yeah. Okay. Completely different. Okay. With staff. Commissioner, so why so many single unit apartments when the need is greater for two and threebedroom? um we we felt like it would serve the population that we serve better. So So you aren't trying to maybe the second phase will look at there seems to be a large need for two

and threebedroom housing. A lot of people are looking for that and yet you're building a whole bunch of some of those and then make more available. Yeah. But that's I appreciate you sharing. Yeah. Is there any concern with the industrial right next door that somebody would I I don't think so. Um have you know residential? I mean I don't want to live with the tire shop. You mean? No, just to the east there. Oh, to the east. Not vacant residential at this point. No, because it's just vacant right now. So the only thing we may want I know there used to be a bus stop there and we may try to get another bus stop at some time in the future. Yes. I'm sorry. Yeah, you're good. Doug, you have an estimated rent that you're going to be charging at I don't Oh, sorry. Were you had your hand up, too? So, so I'm a little disappointed. We need supportive housing. Okay. You know, let's let's break this social economic barrier we have with the lack of housing here. So, no, but thank you for nice to see you again. Along those same lines, is it possible for these units to qualify for subsidized housing? Are you going to apply for It's not section 8 and I'm not I'm not knowledgeable on that process, but um it it it could be available for lowinccome with with Yeah, I don't know if it would meet the guidelines or not. Yeah. Other questions for the applicant? Thank you, gentlemen. Any members of the public wish to speak on this agenda item? Uh we can open up the podium for that at this time. Seeing none, I'll bring it back to

Are you there? Yeah, Brandon got voted in my place at the last council meeting. Well, good riddance. You know, I couldn't have expected anything like my neighbor. I love you to death. A great day in Xolo. Thank you, Commissioner. Uh just, you know, we're heading into a fun time of year. Spring's here, summer's coming. You know, there's lots of fun things to do. Get out and enjoy the city and all the things we offer, but also be firewise. You know, be cautious. We still are in fire danger. So, I have nothing. Uh I'm gonna echo Commissioner Hatch. It's a great day in I just want I want to thank everybody who has put up with me and worked with me and been gracious with me all through these years. I have enjoyed my time here. I look forward to staying involved with the city in one way or another and you'll still see me around. So, thank you very much. On a public notice note, we are not out of fire danger yet. So, we need to be conscious of that. Thank you. Thank you, Vice Chair Roberts. And I'll echo, it's been great working with you and uh miss having you sit next to me at these meetings and glad you made it to this meeting. I know you're a little banged up tonight, but I'm not sure if I was going to be here.

I'm glad you were able to make it. Um and wish you the best of luck. Thank you, D. Uh thank you. So, just a few things. Uh, first of all, let the commission and public know we do not have a meeting scheduled for April 8th. Uh, we will follow through on official postings and things like that, but wanted to let you guys know that at this point. Uh, also just a reminder on fire restrictions. We are in stage one. Uh, we did get a little bit of moisture the last week or two, but uh, we need a lot more. So, please be careful. Um, also, you know, be cognizant and recognize the fire danger there around your homes. The city's got some pretty good programs coming up in the next couple months, uh, where green waste and, uh, other types of debris material can be just set out by the curb or hauled out to the green waste facility or to the, uh, transfer station at no charge. So, certainly encourage property owners to get out and take some responsibility, clean up their properties. Uh, and then finally would like to offer sincere appreciation to Vice Chair Roberts for his service. Um, I believe if I'm correct, he has served for about six years on the commission and has missed two meetings in that period. One meeting, one meeting in in six years. Um, as an example of his dedication, he literally was ran over by a truck yesterday. Yeah. Sunday. Um, and yet he still came to the meeting banged up, bandaged up, but he made it the point to be here. Um, again, a testament to his dedication to what he does. And just kind of a quick uh quick story of the type of person that Doug is and the type of things that he uh does for the community. several months ago. He happened to be at

city hall uh doing some business there and there was an individual who came in to utilize the charging stations for their electric vehicle and they were down to about a double A's worth of electricity. I mean they were down to to about nothing. Um and they weren't able to get the chargers that were at city hall. They weren't able to get those to work with their vehicle. Uh for some reason they weren't quite compatible. needed an adapter, that type of thing. Uh Doug took it on himself. He volunteered. He took his own personal vehicle and drove that person around to several different charging stations in the area until they found a location that this individual would be able to charge their vehicle at. Um you know, Pinetop all the way down in Pinetop. Um so, you know, not anything that he was asked to do. He saw a need and he stepped up and took care of it. And uh we look forward to working with Doug either in back on the planning and zoning commission at some point or in another capacity with the city. We don't think he's going away. So thank you Doug. Appreciate it. Unless another truck runs. Takes more than a truck right this time. I'm very I I am truly truly very blessed and I appreciate everything that everybody has. Thank you. Thank you uh Doug. Thank you, Director Traasquez. Seeing no other items on the agenda, I will adjourn us. [Music]
