Rubaloff referred to the Central Point Planning and Zoning Department Staff
Review, dated June 21, 1993 stating that REQUIREMENTS 1 and 2 will still
stand and are relevant to the revised site plan. The variance granted in 1979
is still in effect, and will allow for the parking, maneuvering and facilities to
occur within 10' of the setback requirement on Snowy Butte.
The new plan also keeps everything but a very small amount of maneuvering
within that area that is not reserved for the setback, there will probably be a
need for a minor exception. Rubaloff then passed around a copy of the Site
Plan with pink lines indicating the required setback, and a little strip of yellow
illustrating the amount of deviation (21, and entered this into the record as
Exhibit 1. Rubaloff also stated that staff will be doing some housekeeping with
the zoning regulations, which relate to parking within the setback area of corner
lots.
Larry Blanchard, Public Works Director referred to the Public Works Staff Report
under Item #4, Curb and Gutter Improvements still apply to the revised site
plan. Blanchard said the widening of Snowy Butte Road would be a half street
improvement, 18' + 2' (20') to include curbs,gutters and sidewalk on the north
side.
He also stated additional property would need to be dedicated for right of way
on Glenn Way. The dedication could be handled through a 5' utility and
sidewalk easement, instead of actually dedicating the right of way itself.
(entered as Condition 10).The City would need to obtain an additional 5' utility
easement on the north side of Snowy Butte Road to allow for a future 50' right
of way. (entered Condition #11)
Blanchard also referred to the Bikeway Improvement listed in Condition 9. He
listed the options of the different routes for a bikeway, Snowy Butte Rd. or exit
Snowy Butte Road in Stonecreek 2, Phase I taking Joseph to Glenn Way to W.
Pine.
Blanchard referred to another item of vision clearance at intersection Snowy
Butte Road and Glenn Way, the trees next to the intersection would have to be
removed. (or trimmed up appropriately.)
Rubaloff asked for clarification on the setback, and sidewalks within the utility
easement. Blanchard stated the easement would need to be a sidewalk and
utility easement. There is a standard form of the sidewalk and utility easement
which require City Council approval.

Farber stated that at the corner the curve is on an arc, so the dedication would
have to include a curb radius. If we are doing an easement this will not be
affected. Blanchard said that the radius could be dedicated, because it would
not have an effect on the setbacks, but would be cleaner if we did it all in an
easement.
N Blanchard said that the bikeway would eventually be striped, when Snowy
Butte Road is completed. The Bikeway is included in the existing Right of Way.
U The issue of parking on Glenn Way will be addressed sometime in the future.
m Blanchard stated that the type of mailboxes installed would most likely be the
Q NBU's, and we can place the NBU on the curb and include the walk-around in
the easement.
Blanchard said that the placement of the route of the Bikeway would be a
decision in the City's Master Transportation Plan.
Joe LaValle of 589 Brandon, Central Point came forward in support of the Site
' Plan, as an agent of Dan Renard, property owner.
Mr. LaValle discussed the Minor Variance for the setbacks. Mr. LaValle also
stated that he agreed that the 10' Utility Easement would work the best. Also
the Bikeway would not have to be done until the route was decided.
Rubaloff stated that staff would recommend a Minor Variance, and with the
1979 Minor Variance in place, that it would allow parking in the setback, as
long as it did not impair safety.
Mr. LaValle produced a document (exhibit to Deed) from the County records on
the 1979 partition.. Rubaloff passed around this document No. 707943-KD
and entered it into the record as Exhibit J.
Farber explained that minor land partitions were handled through deeding until
legislation in 1990 refereed land partitions for local planning commission action.
No one else came forward in support of or in opposition to the Site Plan.
Chairman Piland closed the Public Meeting.
