right, it's 6 o'clock. We're going to go ahead and get started. Bring to order our planning commission meeting for August 19th, 2025. Um the invocation would normally be given by Scott Sheay, but uh Commissioner Garner will fill that in and then we will have uh the pledge of allegiance led by Commissioner Anderson. Our beloved father in heaven, we pray this night, Father, that the Holy Spirit will be with us to guide us in doing those things which will help benefit this wonderful city that we live in and our citizens.

Next uh item is the adoption of the meeting agenda which has been posted in accordance with state law. Uh take a motion to adopt. Motion to adopt. A second. We have a motion and a second. All in favor say I.

4:12 – 4:500

I. Any opposed? Uh we'll now be uh confirming the meeting minutes from the meeting and work session from July 15th on 2025. Um, barring any notes or notations that need to be updated, we'll take a motion to adopt those minutes. Chair Keen, I'll make a motion that we adopt the regular meetings as posted for the regular meeting and the work session for July 15th. Got a motion and second. All in favor?

4:45 – 5:410

I oppos. Okay. First item or number three item. Uh, we have a public comment. Uh we will this is an opportunity for the uh public to address the planning commission regarding items that are not scheduled for public hearing on this agenda. Um we would ask that you consider others and limit your comments to three minutes. So if there's anyone here to make a comment on one of the items listed on the agenda, we would ask that you wait for the appropriate time for for those public hearings. We'll go ahead and open public comment. Anybody online? Okay, go ahead and close public comment. All right, our first item is a preliminary plot for West Lake Landing.

5:39 – 7:370

All right, so this is a it's a commercial plat down on the corner of of uh 2000 West and 2700 South. um what's been proposed here that well I guess before I get into it um there are a couple of things in terms of conditional approval and we have we have a couple of items like this tonight um so we reached a point where there were some some items that the uh the applicant was still working out with our city engineer um so he has some outstanding comments planning and and fire I believe fire actually had an outstanding comment as well uh planning is good to go on this one um but uh in terms of the recommendation We do have this uh these these uh conditions here. So, um we do recommend it it be approved based off of the discussions that we've had with the applicant. We have full faith that they'll address everything. I just wanted to go over that first. Um oh, and I also have one person here online joining. Okay, so this subdivision is uh it's just this area here. Um so the the actual corner is going to be a separate piece of property. Um you have two access roads that are proposed to come into this area for potential residential development in the future. Uh currently the number of lots here allows it to be a minor subdivision. Um the uh they're going to be dedicating some rideway and uh we also had some previous rideway dedication here that'll be removed as part of this plat. Um, so but this would be uh really the first commercial development in the area. Um, so we were hoping to see some commercial development down here uh when we anticipated the West Davis corridor coming in and and seeing that 2000 West um interchange. So the the overall layout here though, to my understanding,

7:35 – 9:270

they have some clients that are looking at uh properties already. Um the uh there is a lot of internal access here though and one thing that did come up as we were discussing it this morning is ensuring that we have internal access to this property as well. Uh so that they aren't uh limited to access only from uh either the the public road here or or from the the public existing roads. Um but again like I said the uh staff is confident that the applicant are is going to address what is remaining. Um so uh based on what has been proposed here we would recommend that conditional approval. Um and for those who are new to the commission if anyone decides to make a motion along those lines um we would just recommend that uh I mean you can use the language or not. It's up to you. recommended language, but that it does include, you know, on the conditions of and I've I've listed those two up here. Um, but that's all I have for now. I'll entertain any questions from the commission. I have a concern, Royce. Um, Trailside Park is adjacent to the property. Uh the Syracuse trail is right through there at roundabout area since the up of the the freeway there 2000 west is gets a lot of traffic in the afternoon evenings. It also happens to be where a lot of people jog and are exercising in the mornings before work going to that trial state park uh connecting the the uh trail system that goes right through that roundabout. So my concern would be uh additional potential pedestrian risk if there's a lot of commercial activity right there in addition to the normal traffic and all the pedestrians recreating.

9:230

Yeah. No, that is a good good point. Um given our tough to navigate as a uh as a jogger as it is,

9:31 – 10:530

right? Yeah. And we and we don't want to increase danger there. I mean, one of one of the aspects that is uh and and a comment that needs to be addressed still is right-of-way dedication as part of a trail uh plan along the northern side of this property. And that that may I don't know if that necessarily alleviates the the pinch point here. Um, and that is something we'll have to address specifically when this property develops. But, uh, that would allow for a wider, uh, trail area here on the south side of 2700 that would accommodate more, um, more traffic, you know, pedestrians and runners and and bikes and so on. Um but as far as the corner itself uh where that isn't within the project area per se. Um as far as our plan goes, we don't really have any uh anything specifically to address the safety aspect there outside of you know we have crossings. They're they're clearly marked designated is it is a trail master plan area. Uh and in the future at some point we anticipate there may be a light there at that intersection. Um, but that would be future developments and uh that would also reroute potentially a bluff so that it's no longer such a heavy intersection.

10:52 – 11:150

Thank you. And will you just briefly point out that intersection or public road access we're talking about on 2000 West just on your Let's see here on Yeah. Just so I can Yeah. So, and you're you're talking about the proposed roads, correct?

11:13 – 12:240

Yeah. So, we have one here that's going to line up with Trailside Drive, and there's another one that comes in from the north side that would line up potentially with the future reignment of Bluff Road. Um so we we have one from up here, one from over here and and one thing that I I did forget to mention um is there is a point of nonconformity with the code here and they are kind of painted into a corner in this sense. Uh the code requires that between intersections the center lines have to be at least 385 ft if you're going 35 miles hour. So uh there's nothing they can really do about that. These are existing streets and we would like the road to line up. Um so the planning commission has the ability to allow that uh like essentially an administrative variance more or less um to allow them to put the streets closer together. Um so again, if they're lining up with this existing street, it's not creating more nonconformity. It would just be extending across the road. The separation here though, just when it was approved, for whatever reason, this doesn't comply with our current code. And so we wanted to make sure that was addressed as well.

12:23 – 13:040

Great. That's what I was referring to. Just so I know that we're trying to aesthetically match those roads up, make it all fit. Yes, we would like them to intersect so it is a straight shot rather than creating more issues. Thank item is open for public hearing. So, um, again, if you have, uh, comments or concerns about this particular item, we will go ahead and open public hearing. Same as before, please limit your comments to 3 minutes or less. Charles Osman,

13:07 – 15:070

seeing none, go ahead and pl close public hearing. Um, is Charles Osman or the developer in the room? My name is Charles Osman. My office, I live in Liberty, so I'll just give you my office address, is 340 West Analopee Drive here in um Clearfield. So, I'm the developer and land owner on this. This is Mike Stton. He's our um civil engineer that's done all of the work on this. We can kind of answer a couple of your questions. um to do with your trail question and the safety on that. We have already in our design added additional roadway space as per what was requested along 2700 and then the piece at the bottom here on 2000 we've already addressed that. So there will be additional roadway where the public can ride their bikes or um jog if they want to jog in the road I guess. So we have addressed that. Um we can't really address the main corner because that is owned by Wasatch Investments um who are also the owners of Holiday Oil and they will be bringing in theirs uh separately from us but we are designing together. So we know that they are doing a similar thing to what we have done. So we we feel we have addressed that for you and there may not be markings on the road until the city decides what to do on that because that's not our place to mark but we have created that um space for that to happen. As far as uh your question all we can really do is line up with Trailside Drive. If there was another option we'd roll with it, but there doesn't appear to be any other way to do it than what has already been designed. Any other questions I can

15:05 – 15:460

answer for you? Questions from the commission. Thank you, sir. Okay. Thank you. discussion and take a motion after. Would just like to reiterate that whoever does make the motion that we do include the um city notes and the concerns that will uh be met before for the conditional approval. No comments. I can make a motion.

15:44 – 16:240

Uh I move the planning commission give a conditional approval uh the request to Charles Osman for the minor plat called West Lake Landing property located at 2200 West 2700 South 13.648 648 acres in the GC zone with the conditions that all staff comments must be addressed before the plat is recorded with Davis County and recognizing that the access road at 2000 West does not comply with the 7.5 second separation requirement. Thank you, Commissioner Anderson. We have a motion. We have a second. Second. Have a second. All in favor? I.

16:21 – 16:510

Any opposed? All right. Thank you. All right, we'll move on to the next item. A, uh, site plan uh, for the request by Fort Street Partners uh, commercial site. Fellow commissioners, uh, I need to recuse myself from this item. I have a a client that's involved with the four street partners, so I'll I'll stay quiet.

16:50 – 18:480

Thank you, Commissioner Nielson. Appreciate that. U, we'll notate that for the minutes. All right. So, this uh this site plan, it's kind of an unconventional type use. Uh we don't the the code doesn't necessarily address a lot of specifics here in terms of access, but um we we met with the ARC a couple of weeks ago and uh feel like we've we've been over this pretty thoroughly in terms of trying to make sure that the code applies as best it can. So, uh, usually our use is there's some sort of a pedestrian type access to the bu the actual, uh, use itself. And in this case, there is a pedestrian access, but it's only going to be for employees. On the side there, the actual customer access is just going to be automobile only. So, kind of looking at this in a similar way as a, excuse me, as a drive-thru only uh, business. So, essentially, people would drive in from this direction. North is on the right or left side and they would stay in their cars to have their oil changed and then pull out this way. So, um we do have uh in terms of the pedestrian access requirements, everything that is required for regular access has been met here again just for this pedestrian entrance. Um the uh ARC go back up to report. The ARC did make a couple of recommendations, one of which is has been addressed by the applicant. Uh, and the other they were they were a little concerned about whether it was going to be necessarily required. I I told them that is up to planning commission's deliberation. So, the first one was that lighting on the west side of the building. They've they've added that. There were some concerns from the ARC about uh security. And uh the second one there is about placing awnings over the garage bays on the north side. Um the the code has some

18:46 – 20:450

relatively loose language about awnings over main entrances, but it's not a requirement. It's more of an option. There's there's kind of a series of options that can be added over main entrances for buildings. Uh and awnings is just one of those things. Technically, they do meet the requirements of the co of that code. So, uh this wouldn't be a code requirement to add the awnings. If if the planning commission decided that the awnings were needed, uh that would be something that we would need to have some sort of determination of uh here's why, right? Some justification for for that. So, um let me give you an idea of what that looks like here. So the north elevation uh it's pretty um I mean this this does again comply also with the requirements for the subdivision. Um they they took some steps to change some coloration and things and bring it into compliance with the the design pattern book. But again if awnings were required it would be along uh this side. So, um the the overall design of the building that's I guess that's relatively flush with the building. Um the the tower uh section here is is facing the road and that was a negotiation uh with the applicant. We do require the main facade to face the road and in this case it just wasn't functional for the use. So, um, yeah, we've we've been over quite a few elements of of technicality, I guess, in the code on this one to try and make it fit as best as possible. So, um, again, if the awnings are required, it would just be over this section. Um, and we would need some sort of reason why, per se. Uh, the the ARC the discussion there, it was essentially that would clearly identify the entrance, which um, I feel like it is fairly clearly

20:44 – 21:270

identified. they're going to have signage and things as well. Um, but it would also help, you know, with with the architecture in terms of, um, varying that wall plane a little bit. So, uh, but that that was pretty much the extent of the discussion with the ARC. So, uh, if the planning commission would like to do that, that would be a condition of approval. Um, and again, that first item has has already been addressed, so you can add that as a condition if you'd like, but the applicant has voluntarily taken care of that. Um, and that's all I have. Thank you. Before you, what and what's your thoughts on bicycles? What I was going to say since

21:24 – 21:490

Oh, yeah. That is a good point. Yes, the bicycles I I I made the applicant aware of that. There does need to be bicycle parking. That is a good point. Um, so the bicycle parking could be added really anywhere in here. Um, they only need one bicycle parking space per the number of spaces they have. So, um that is something the applicant is working on as well.

21:46 – 22:300

I think we can add that in his condition as well. All right. This uh item is available is open for public hearing. So again, if you're here to make a comment on this item tonight, we'll open up public hearing. Please limit your uh comments to 3 minutes or less. Seeing none, we'll go ahead and close public hearing. Open it up to the commission. We have the developer here with us. You're online. Okay, perfect. Yes. Uh Jennifer Nanos with Fort Street Partners. Perfect. Thank you. Uh questions from the commission for the developer at all.

22:31 – 23:100

I would like to just reaffirm and confirm what I heard with you, Rice. Um they they are planning to do the awnings. Um that's part of what they're they're going to be doing. And they are planning on doing the bike the bicycle uh parking. Correct. So the the bicycle parking. Yes. Uh the awnings that that was a concern of the applicants. They they would rather not do that. From what the architect told me. So if the commission again wants to do that, that's something that again we need to justify to them because we're we're requiring in that case something that would be above and beyond what's in the ordinance

23:10 – 23:330

and the with the applicant online. Can you give us comments regarding that with the awning? What maybe your concerns are? Um the concerns are just the additional cost associated with the build. If we can keep it a little bit more on the affordable side, that would be our our concerns associated. But if that's a requirement, we would just want to understand where the commission is coming from.

23:35 – 24:160

And and Mr. Chair, uh so just pulling it up, this is what I was referring to. Um in terms of the uh the entrances section, so it says that they have to have at least three of the following. some sort of prominent architectural feature complimentary at differing materials or colors, increased use of windows and glass, pedestrian amenities. It may include d right and awnings is one of those many things and increased landscaping. Uh they already uh have these three on that side. Um so again, they do meet the ordinance. If we wanted to require that, again, it is above and beyond. Maybe I honestly don't think those awnings are needed. I mean, I don't even

24:15 – 24:560

And honestly, I mean, you see a lot of awnings that on on buildings as they get older, they get, you know, worn out and they just look bad. I I honestly would one thing usually get up. Yeah. And if they're already meeting the code, I'm Yeah, if they're if they're meeting the ordinance in the code, I agree. I would also add that if we required awning, it might set a precedent in the area of others needing to do the same and then we potentially exacerbate that same issue. Yeah. have a whole corner area that's got all these, you know, additional features that need to be upkept to maintain the integrity of the area and its look.

24:54 – 25:230

I agree. Um, this to clarify, Royce, this is the property that's going west of the Jags, correct? Yeah. And the uh the building will be facing Analopee Drive. What basically those those bays will be facing Analopee. That's correct. Yeah. The uh the exits of them will be the entrances won't be you won't even see you won't even see the awnings from the from mano entrance will be off of 3000 west

25:21 – 25:510

the entrance would be through the uh internal drive. So there there's one a couple properties to the west it would come up and then east and uh you'd have to come in from the north of this property. Um but this is going to be the southern elevation that'll be facing Analopee and there's the northern elevation that would be the main entrance. Okay. Yeah. Yeah, they've uh they put one of these up north in West Point. Um it's not bad looking.

25:49 – 26:340

No, it's good. All right. If there are no other comments, we'll take a motion. I'll make a motion. Thank you. I move the planning commission approve the request of Heather Luluin uh for a site plan called Take Five Oil on property located at 30062 West 1700 South containing 71 acres in the GC zone. Thank you. We have a we have that condition in Oh yes, we need the condition. Oh yeah, if you wouldn't mind adding the bicycle parking.

26:30 – 26:580

Okay. Do I need to reset my motion then? You just say adding a condition. I I move that we add the recommended uh bicycle parking uh must be shown on the site plan drawings before a building permit will be granted. We have a motion. Second. Second. Seconded. All in favor? I

26:53 – 28:530

I. Any opposed? Thank you. All right. Next item on the agenda is a zoning amendment for a minor subdivision. This will be available for public hearing as well. Uh Rice. Okay. So, we have an application here for it's it's more of just a lot split. Uh but technically anytime you subdivide a property in the city, it's it's going to be considered an official subdivision. So, uh, the intent of this is to split off an existing home from the larger property. So, this property is just west of the, uh, commercial property we were just talking about. Uh, and currently there is a subdivision that has been in in process to the west of this one. So, the subdivision plat basically just breaks off this piece here, this house parcel, and leaves a section for future development. Um there there's also going to be a reszone associated with this one. So uh it is a little bit unique and again this would be a conditional approval. So the condition in this case though would be conditional on the reszone passing with the city council. Uh it is up to the the planning commission. And you could either do a conditional approval with this one now as it is or you could uh recommend it be continued until the city council passes the R2 reszone. Uh assuming that they do. Um the what's shown here would require the R2 zoning. Uh the current zoning does not allow for this size of property. So if it was reszoned, this could be approved. It would be just fine. Uh but the zoning does not currently apply. So, we can't approve this here tonight and so any any sort of approval will be conditional on a on a future approval of a reszone. Um, in terms of the review, the there were some really minor uh comments that

28:50 – 29:150

I had just remaining renaming some of these parcels just for clarity uh for the for the county, things like that. So, it's just clerical things. Uh the dimensions of what's shown and and how it's laid out all complies with the R2 zoning. So again, with that conditional approval that it would it would apply. That's all I have.

29:13 – 29:560

Perfect. Thank you, Royce. All right, we will open this up for public hearing. Same rules as before. Seeing none, we'll go ahead and close public hearing. Open it up to the commission. Royce, with this remainder parcel that we're looking at, this huge triangle, um, is the future plan for this to be R1, R2 all the way to the end of that? Yeah. So, the request is for the whole property to be R2. And so, oh, sorry, no, no, is correcting me.

29:53 – 30:340

Uh, just the house would be reszoned to match the request of size. The rest of it remain A1. Okay. Thank you. That's just a good that's a separate application that's also on the agenda here. We'll deal with that in a minute. Thank you for the clarification. I just was trying to look through the packet and get that information. If there are no other questions, the commission will take a motion. And this is a conditional based on conditional approval based on the approval of the reszoning. Correct.

30:34 – 31:050

So are we just approving the parcel split? Is that all we're approve approving here just with the condition? Yeah. Yeah. And it technically, like I said, it is a subdivision just because it does create another lot. Um, so it's it's technically a minor subdivision is what this would be, but yeah, it's for all intents and purposes, it's just a lot split. Can you bring up that language just for us? Um, I don't think it was in there. I would like to take the motion. Okay, Commissioner Anderson.

31:02 – 31:320

Okay. I move that we conditionally approve the minor subdivision application from David Bennett for approximately 3.165 acres located approximately 2402 West, 2700 South uh with the condition of city council approval of the reszoning of the lots. We have a motion. Do we have a second? Second. Second. All in favor?

31:28 – 32:080

I I oppose. Motion passes. Next motion on the agenda is a conditional use permit request by Sheay Barton. Yes. And actually uh so we the way that we set the agenda up just uh we put both of these items into item I believe it's what is item four there item three the reszone as well uh would be included in that. So um if I can just go over that quickly if that's all right. Yeah.

32:06 – 33:350

So this is this is for the project we were just talking about and as Noah clarified that smaller lot is the one intended to be reszoned. The rest of it to remain as A1. Uh A1 is kind of our placeholder zone for future development. Uh technically if if the reszone was approved and the lot was then subdivided and recorded, um they could potentially build a house on the other one because it does have enough street frontage there on 2700, but it just would be one lot. There isn't enough to do more than that. So they do have a stub coming in from the east side. Uh my Google Earth imagery I think is not updated to the C to uh show that yet, but there there is a a stub roughly thereish that would come in. So uh they have the street frontage here for a lot. They also can then potentially reszone the rest of this to something else and then uh they would have access to build uh in that area as well. So but again that would be future development. Uh the only section being reszoned is just this house and its yard. So the request here or this this uh recommendation this is a recommendation to the city council. So a motion would be along the lines of uh you know that we approve or we recommend the city council approve the reszone. Um but this is this would facilitate that subdivision plant. That's all I have.

33:32 – 34:120

Thank you. And being as we already had public hearing on that on this item alto together um is the applicant. Do you have anything that you'd like to add? No. Well, I guess what we're trying to do is we're splitting my mother's house off the rest of the property. I'm I'm keeping the remaining acreage. Uh we're splitting it off so we could sell her house. That's basically what we're trying to achieve. Okay. Thank you.

34:14 – 34:540

Any questions from commission on this one? Okay. We'll uh take a a motion for recommendation to city council. I will make a motion that we for recommendation to the city council for approval of the property located at uh I just oh 2402 West 2700 South to be um moved to um R2 and this is a recommendation to the city council. Okay, we have a motion. Do we have a second? Second. All in favor? I I

34:52 – 35:080

Any oppose? Thank you. All right. Now, Jart. Yes. Thank you. Sorry about that. No, no, no. Thank you. I was a double.

35:07 – 37:050

Yeah. So, this is a it's going to be a home occupation. Uh and in in our code, home occupation, home business. It's the same same thing. Um, so we we've received this application specifically for uh it's it's sort of a tutoring uh service for dyslexia uh folks with dyslexia. Um the number of employees is compliant with the code. What they proposed is is all compliant with our home occupation code. Um just given the the size of the business, it does require it to come to planning commission for approval. So, um, if approved, they would be able to operate within the parameters of what's in the code, but if they added in another employee or, uh, ex expanded the the school to include a greater number of students, that would require a move to a commercial zone. So, these these home business allowances are are set up specifically to keep it um as compliant with the the existing character of the neighborhood as possible. um you know, you want to be able to essentially drive down the street and not really know that it's there. So, um that's that's basically what is is proposed here. It'll be in the back uh backyard area in a an accessory building that's proposed. Um and so they have provided um let's see, well, they provided they're going to be applying for a building permit. So the building doesn't currently exist, but if this is approved, the building will be built and they will be able to operate their business. Um, and the building of the building is separate. So with the way this is is written, just to be clear, uh, the conditional use permit being requested from the planning commission is for the business itself. Uh, the building is something that we address at a staff level. We don't have to worry about that. But it does relate to this in the in the sense that you can't use any more than 30% of any floor area for a business. And so they're they're going

37:03 – 37:370

up to that amount. Um and they've they've clarified that for us. So yes, Royce, as you are um looking at this for the building side, um my question as I was reading through this and trying to find it too is drop off for students and parking. Yes. So off- streetet parking is provided for the uh let's see, I think they have that here. So, they've got parking for their employees here. Um, pickup and drop off would be on the road. Okay.

37:36 – 37:520

So, uh, with the number of students that they're t tutoring, we don't anticipate any large traffic issues by any means. Um, but it is up to them to make sure that people aren't blocking driveways and fire hydrants and things like that. Thank you.

37:53 – 38:380

All right. We have this item is open for public hearing. Uh again, we'll open the public hearing. Seeing none, we'll go ahead close public hearing. All right. Um is the applicant in the room? You mind just coming up? You don't mind just stating your name? And yeah, Shay Barton. um address 3594 West, 2050 South, right by um Buffalo Point Elementary. So, our backyard backs up right next to that right there.

38:34 – 39:130

Okay, perfect. Um I think the only comment so far is Commissioner Garner is about drop off. How many students do you usually have? So, I only do students one at a time. So, thinking it would be oneon-one. So at most it's going to be three students that would be in there at a time. So and usually parents drop off and then pick up because it's an hour session. So great. Yeah. And we are have we're right on the corner so there's we have lots of parking right there too. So yeah. Perfect. Thank you. Okay. Thanks. Any other comments? All right.

39:11 – 39:520

I I do have a question and forgive my ignorance on this. So, what distinguishes this from somebody that just teaches piano lessons in their house if they've only got one student at a time for an hour? It's not like you've got a queue of 20 people in the parking lot waiting. There's not a bunch of people loitering about. So, how's that different than somebody just teaching piano lessons at their house? That's a good question. Uh, per the code, it's it's just about the percentage of the building that's used. So, uh that 30% threshold is is what pushes it into that uh major conditional use. So if there if it was like a piano lesson, right, the square footage of that is really tiny usually, but in this case, it's a larger area that's being utilized.

39:50 – 40:260

So once you get to 30% require a conditional use and then at a certain percentage, you said was it 34, then you have to get reszoning. So if they go above that, then there there really isn't any way to operate a home occupation outside of that bounds. They're going to have to go to some sort of commercial space. I see. So it's not necessarily about the number of students in this case. It's about the size of the building and the building is small. So that's that's why you're talking about the the Thank you. Uh dwelling unit that's going to be added in, right? Yep. Yeah. Thank you, Miss Martin.

40:23 – 41:520

Yeah, I would add uh it's also about the number of cars that will be coming as far as the number of students and the intensity of use. And so, uh, residents in most zones are are allowed to have a home occupation. But where it crosses over from just a normal home occupation into a major conditional use, it it it there's a chapter in our ordinance that you can read. It sounds like uh, you know, you're interested in reading all the specifics of it. So um in the chapter it it explains um when it becomes a major conditional use and it has to do with the number of students that will be visiting and and as well as the size of it. So it crosses a threshold where maybe it it has the potential to create a problem for the neighbors and that's why we have a public hearing. That's why we want to talk about it and make sure that they've worked through all of their parking and potential issues. And the way a conditional use will work is it it's an allowed use. Um, but planning commission can review it and add conditions related to mitigating the potential impacts of that use. Uh, might be hours of operation or, you know, reviewing the specifics of where people are dropping off and picking up so that just make sure it's safe. But I'd be happy to talk more about the specifics of it after if you want.

41:49 – 42:110

No, you've you've satisfied me. Just a interesting comparison. Thank you, Noah. Miss Martin, if I actually have a quick question for you. Um, sorry. And just to clarify because Noah brought it up. What is your hours that we'll be dropping off and picking up? It'll

42:09 – 42:520

It's better for the for the record to go up front. So most of the students I see um are after school hours. So they'll come when they're done with school. So usually it's between like 4 and 7. Um I do have quite a few um like homeschooled students that I see during the day. So um the busiest hours are going to be between 4:00 and 7 where kids are available to come to tutor. Um, but I will have students coming from probably like 7:30 in the morning to some I have some come before school and then my homeschool students come during the day. So,

42:50 – 43:290

Okay. And it's like you said like usually like one two at a time. Yeah. Yeah. So, I'll it depends on how many employees I'll have. If I have if I have two, then I'll have two and if I have, you know, whatever that is. So I the the the reason I'm asking is obviously with the proximity to the elementary school thing. So yeah, usually it's they'll be coming when that traffic from school is done. So it'll be like 4:00 when I it starts getting busier. So usually the the traffic's cleared out by then. So yeah. Yeah. My daughter goes to that school. So

43:27 – 44:110

Oh, yeah. So you know how it's crazy. It's not as crazy as it was, but it's crazy. Yeah. So all right. Thank you. Thank you. We'll take a motion. I'll motion to move. Uh I motion to move the planning commission that we approve the request of Shay Barton for a tutoring home business on property located at 3594 West 2050 South in the R1 zone. And this is for the conditional home uh uh use permit. Correct.

44:090

Okay, we have a motion. We have a second. I'll second. Have a second. All in favor? I I.

44:16 – 45:480

Any opposed? Thank you. All right. Move on to the number eight for a final plat for Cole West at the Salt Rock phasing. Okay. So, uh you may recall a few months ago we we saw the reszone for this one and the preliminary plat go through. Uh PRD is is kind of nice that way. Uh reszone requires a preliminary plat. So, we we got to see it all together. Um so, the city council approved this back in May and they've been working on on taking care of a final plat. So, this is going to be kind of the northwest section. Um, so West Davis Corridor is here and uh then they've got the the trailside development up here with um some of the newer developments that have gone in uh PRD developments on this side. So um what they they do include some open space. Uh the applicants also aware there are some buffer requirements there against the highway. Um but other than that it's it's fairly standard like single family PRD type development. So um but based on what's proposed here uh everything meets the requirements of the code. No conditional approval needed. This is more or less a rubber stamp. Uh we would recommend approval so they can get going with recording this plat.

45:49 – 46:020

All right. And this is just a discussion of motion for the commission tonight. So discussion If none take a motion for approval or whatever.

46:03 – 46:480

Have a question. Parcel A, is that a retention basin or let me get down to the construction drawings. So there is kind of a mixture here. You can see the the elevation lines that are proposed and this concrete here. So there is there's detention but there's also just open space. So this will be kind of play area. Um again there's there's buffering required here. So there will be a sound wall. Um even though it is up against the highway, but that's that's part of their open space requirement in terms of community use in general. So but there there aren't any like specific amenities that are planned in that area.

46:47 – 47:190

Thank you. And quick question, Royce. Um our fire marshall had, you know, like four items. Have all those items for him been addressed? They have. Yeah. I So I have an email from him that's that said everything was taken care of. Still missing one hydrant. Okay. So sounds like he's saying we can take care of the hydrant at an administrative level. And thank you for being thorough.

47:16 – 47:590

Always. All right. We'll take a motion. I will move then I'll move the planning commission approve the request of Chase Freeburn for a final plaque called Salt Rock Phase 1 um on property located at 1744 West Ross Road containing 10.34 acres in the PRD zone and that all requests from the staff has been approved. All right, we have a motion. Do we have a second? Second. All in favor? I I. Any oppose?

47:56 – 48:150

All right. Motion passes. We will take a motion to adjourn work session. Motion to adjurnn. We have a motion. Second. All in favor? I I I. All right. We are in work session.

48:13 – 48:580

All right. We will start with department business. Our city council is I just have one quick update from a previous item that you guys have discussed. So, there was a uh a request for a general map uh change and a reszone for the property on Analopee Drive just west of the golf course clubhouse. We you guys had a discussion about golf ball safety and things like that. So, that uh general map uh change and reszone was approved to go general commercial. And I think that's all I had for you guys. Great. Thank you, Councilman Watson. Appreciate that.

49:000

City attorney report.

49:01 – 50:040

I actually have two things this evening, and I know that's unusual because I rarely say anything. Uh number one, this is Mike Kerszswwell's last meeting with the planning commission. is moving on to Idaho, I believe. So, I wish to thank him for all the benefit that he's been to me in the last year and a half, and perhaps he would take the opportunity to do that as well. Number two, the mayor has asked me to conduct some training because we have several new members of the planning commission rather than do that for an hour or two or three or four. What I'm proposing is that over the next several meetings between now and the end of the year that we maybe take 5, 10, 15 minutes in your work session each night. I'd like to get an hour in before the end of the year if you're amendable to that. I have a couple of topics that I'd like to bring up, but I'm certainly willing to entertain topics or requests from you uh and squeeze those in. So, I will be gone in the month of October, but if we could do a couple in September, one or two in November, depending on how that shakes out with Thanksgiving, and again, one or so before Christmas, we could probably get an hour in before the end of the year.

50:03 – 50:480

I think that'd be great. Thank you. We'll start and if you've got topics, let me know. What was the requirement for how many hours we isn't there a requirement how many hours per year in certain time period I think it's four per year I think and you get uh one hour for attending x number of planning commission meetings and so that takes it down to three per year and of course you did one hour of training for the new members before you could be sworn in and start taking action so um you'll have a couple of years under your or a couple of hours rather under your belt by the end of the year. And if we do an hour here, that'll give you three out of the four. I think it's four. I think that's correct.

50:490

All right. Go over upcoming agenda items.

50:55 – 52:530

All right. So, we we've received quite a few applications. Uh we are still looking at uh the Well, let's see. I'm going to pull up a more updated map for you. Need to get the new parcels on this computer. All right. So, we received an application. Uh I believe I mentioned last time they're they're going to start moving forward again on this property. This is a commercial piece. Um so, just a strip commercial with a drive-thru. So, we may see that next time. Um maybe the end of September. Depends on how quickly they get it to us. Uh we also have let's see um we we've received the third plat for the Park West development uh that's been going on for a few years in the old RC Willie property. So the uh phase three Oh, I went too too far. Phase three is in the old parking lot area here. They're going to be putting in some town homes and single family uh properties as well. Um, we let's see. We also have a revision uh back to that that other property I was just at uh to the west. Um, so we we've already approved a site plan a few months ago and they are changing that to remove the drive-thru. Uh, we did ARC meeting for that a couple weeks ago and uh they're just currently working on getting us updated plans. Um, we have received also a conditional use permit. This is for a uh where where is 500 here? So, this is for a a business that's going to be an expansion of an existing home business. Um, believe I went too far. The north. Yes.

52:55 – 53:420

Okay. So, it's this property here. Um, so we have a conditional use permit for the business and then also a site plan. And the site plan is pretty minimal, but does need to be approved according to our code. And then we have also received uh for the Sedes Glenn property, that one that we were talking about, the residential reszone, the property to the west of that, we have a new phase that's come in. Um, and we also have uh another one that's we did a reszone for a few months ago and that is down here. So, we've we've received a plan for this property as well that we'll be looking at um at a concept level. They anticipate getting a preliminary in soon. So, that's what we have right now.

53:400

Yeah, I remember that. Uh I remember that meeting well. That was an eventful one.

53:46 – 54:300

All right. Thank you, Royce. Um, Commissioner reports. I'm going to back on. Um, uh, thank Mike for service. Um, he's definitely been a big help for me over the last few weeks. Um, so thank you. And, uh, you'll be missed. Ravens. Um, that was kind of a little kind of shot in the gut a little bit right there when that was announced. So, you'll be missed. Any other commissioner report? I might need them. All right, we will take a motion to adjurnn.

54:290

We adjourn. Uh, all in favor? I I I We are ajourned. Thank you everyone.
