Public hearing to review Planned Unit Development, Tentative Plan and Conditional use applications that would amend the previously approved Beebe Woods Planned Unit Development by including a 4`h phase near the northwest corner of the project. This proposed 4`~' phase would add five lots derived from an adjacent tax lot and would not change any other elements of the original P.U.D. approval. The subject parcel is in the R-2, Residential Two Family District and is identified in the records of the Jackson County Assesor as Map 37 2W O1CB, Tax 200. The properties are located on the east side of Hamrick Road (4460 Hamrick Road), north of East Pine Street and south of Parkwood Village Lane. /'Innirr~rg C'wumis:sio~i 1.4iir~~le.s Nor'c»ther Z, ?004 Page 2 Chairman Piland asked Commissioner's if there is any ex-parte communications or conflicts ofinterest to declare. Commissioner Fish stated that she had received mail from Galpin & Associates, however did not open it aware of the upcoming hearing. Ken Gerscher, Community Planner presented the Planning Department staffreport. Fie reported that the additional phase is not a significant impact and would be bound by the conditions of approval as set forth in the original approval. There were questions regarding the access for the proposed 5 new lots and the Layton's existing home, and if residents would be using Hamrick Road, or using the Layton driveway as an access point to Hamrick Road. Mr. Gerschler explained that from a Planning aspect, we have to look at how the property could be developed independently from Beebe Woods versus as a part of Beebe Woods. By including tax lot 200 with Beebe Woods, it would reduce traffic directly onto Hamrick. Mr. Gerschler directed further questions to the agent, Craig Stone. Craig Stone, agent for the applicant came forward to answer questions. Mr. Stone confirmed that the five new lots would take access from Live Oak. He indicated that he spoke with the Layton's and they do not have a preference where they take access from for their existing home. The Layton's will retain their existing access onto Hamrick, and are also being provided with access to Live Oak. The Layton's driveway is private and no one will be permitted to use it as an access or short cut to Hamrick Road. The Layton's have no plans of developing what will remain their tax lot as this time. With an existing home, it would be difficult. No one offered comments in favor of or against this application. The public portion of the meeting was closed. Commissioner Lunte made a motion to adopt Resolution 626, approving a 4"' Phase, consisting of 6 lots (5 new lots - 1 with an existing home), subject to the recommended conditions of approval made under the original approval for Beebe Woods, a Planned Unit Development. Commissioner Fish seconded the motion. ROLL CALL: The motion passed unanimously. B. Public hearing to consider a Minor Partition application to create 3 lots. (One having an existing home). The subject parcel is in the R-1-8, Residential Single Family District and is identified in the records of the Jackson County Assessor as Map 37 2W 03A6, Tax Lot 4100. It is located north of Scenic Avenue, east of Dobrot Way and west of Rock Way. Dave Alvord, Community Planner presented the Planning Department staff report. Plmming Connnission Mingles :\'ocember 2. ?004 Page 3 Mr. Alvord explained that there is an existing 20' wide easement located approximately in the center of the parent tax lot. This access will remain and be used as access by the proposed 3 tax lots. Mr. Alvord pointed out that there are structures other than the existing home and will be removed or relocated. The developer will have to determine if the existing well will be used for irrigation or abandoned. Roger Smalley, applicant stated that the existing house will be used by him temporarily until his new home is completed on one of the other lots. Mr. Smalley said that he has decided to remove the existing home along with all of the other structures. No one offered comment in favor of or against the application. The public portion of the meeting was closed. Commissioner's stated they would like the decision of the well included in the conditions of approval. Commissioner Riggs made a motion to adopt Resolution 627 approving a Minor Partition to create three tax lots, subject to the recommended conditions of approval. Commissioner Foster seconded the motion. ROLL CALL: The motion passed unanimously. C. Public hearing to review a Tentative Plan application fora 7 lot subdivision known as Hanley Dale. The subject parcel is in the R-1-8, Residential Single Family District and is identified in the records of the Jackson County Assessor as map 37 2W 10CA, Tax Lot 6000. It is located north of Beall Lane, and east of Hanley Road. Ken Gerschler, Community Planner presented the Planning Department staff report. He explained that this is a standard subdivision application, not a Planned Unit Development. The lots are larger than the minimum 8,000 square foot lot requirement, due to Jackson Creek running along the back portions of Lots 3 & 4, which will have a 25' riparian setback. Future owners of Lots 3 & 4 will be responsible for maintenance for that portion of Jackson Creek. Mr. Gerschler talked about the distance between Quail Court and proposed Hanley Circle. Public Works has worked with the applicant, and determined that the minimum150' distance between the two streets is adequate. The proposed lots will have access from a 52' wide cul-de-sac. Lots 1 & 7 will have a 60' total setback from center line of Hanley Road (30' from center line, 10' R-O-W dedication and standard 20' special setback). In Planning Conun+.csion 1Lfinuter :\'m~ember 2. ?004 Ynge J exceeded. Ryan Csaftis, Owner and Developer for Countryside Terrace came forward to answer questions about the tot lot. He explained that he had hoped not to have to install a tot lot as part of the development. He did as an additional condition of approval from the Planning Commission during the initial approval. All of the units will be sold, and potential buyer's said that they won't be using it anyway because of the close proximity to Hopkins Road. There will not be any playground equipment, it will be a grassy open area for residents to use if they wish. Commissioner Fish made a motion to conditionally approve the Final Development Plan for Countryside Terrace with an added condition to continue fencing along the southern property line of the development, adjacent to Hopkins Road with a 3' fence for added safety. Commissioner Lunte seconded the motion. ROLL CALL: The motion passed unanimously. E.

All lots will be accessed off of Beall Road and Snowy Butte Lane. Once all of the improvements to Snowy Butte Lane have been completed the existing barrier will be removed.
