Commissioner Fish made a motion to continue the Public Hearing to
consider a request by John Addington to partition 0.95 acres into three
parcels and vary from the lot size requirements on two of the three parcels.
Commissioner Gilkey seconded the motion. All said "aye" and the motion
passed.
B. Public Hearing to consider a request by Victor Kosmatka to develop East Cherry
Estates a Tentative Plan for an 81ot (padlo~ subdivision on the north side of
Cherry Street west of its intersection with North 10th Street in the R-3 zoning..
district.
There were no conflicts of interest or ex-parte communications.
Tom Humphrey reviewed the Planning Department Staff Report. The eight
padlots satisfy the zoning criteria for the district and the area and frontage
requirements have been met. The 3/4 garage does not meet city requirements for
two off-street covered parking spots and would need to be dealt with in the future,
but should not affect the request for the Tentative Plan for the subdivision.
Lee Brennan, Public Works Director reviewed the Public Works Staff Report.
The city may require additional dedication of easements and right-of--way to
match the existing conditions and to incorporate the existing infrastructure. A 10-
foot wide P.U.E. should be required on the north side of the Cherry Street right-
of-way, on Lots 1 through 8. Further subdivision will also result in some street
excavation to increase the number of service lateral connections. Public Works
will require the developer to overlay the northern half of Cherry Street to maintain
its structural integrity after excavation. The applicant will also be required to
underground the overhead utilities and remove the existing utility poles. He may
be required to provide a private storm drain as no lot would be allowed to drain
onto another.
Victor Kosmatka, applicant, addressed some of the staff concerns, and assured the
Commission that he would be able to conform to the requirements
Commissioner Gilkey made a motion to adopt Resolution 436 to develop East
Cherry Estates, a Tentative Plan for an 81ot (padlot) subdivision on the
north side of Cherry Street west of its intersection with North 10th Street in

PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT
MEETING
DATE: January 5, 1998
TO: Central Point Planning Commission
FROM: Tom Humphrey, Planning Director
SUBJECT: Public Hearing - To consider a minor partition and variance from lot
dimensions on property located 70 feet south of First Street between Cedar
and Bush Streets in the C-5 zoning district (372W11 Tax Lot 3900).
Annlicant/

Summary: The applicant has submitted a proposal to partition a 0.95 acre parcel into
three parcels and vary from the lot size requirements on two of the three
parcels. The single tax lot is currently occupied by an auto shop and six
legally non-conforming dwellings. The applicant's goal is to separate the
various uses from one another for sale and/or refinancing.
u h ri CPMC 1.24.050 vests the Planning Commission with the authority to hold
a public hearing and render a decision on any application for minor
partition and variance. Notice of the Public Hearing was given in
accordance with CPMC 1.24.060.
A~nlicable Law: CPMC 16.36.010 et seq. -Major and Minor Land Partitions
CPMC 16.40.010 et seq. -Variances
CPMC 17.46.010 et seq. -C-S, Thoroughfare Commercial District
Discussion:
The minor partition involves redefining boundaries between existing conforming and non-
conforming land uses and structures which were built over old vacated public rights-of--way.
The land partition attached to this report has been reviewed for completeness by City staff and is
the one the applicant would like the Commission to consider as the most desirable plan. The
applicant decided to demolish an existing dwelling at 24 Cedar Street to provide better access
and use the water service from that address to the Boulder Brothers auto shop at 27 Bush Street.
~~~ 1
The Planning Department has reviewed the tentative plan for compliance with the City's
Comprehensive Plan and zoning code. The area is designated for thoroughfare commercial
development and is zoned C-5. This proposal will result in a more efficient use of commercially
zoned land and potentially improve the overall configuration of this property and neighborhood.
The Public Works Department has reviewed the tentative plan for compliance with the City's
water, sewer, storm drain and transportation standards. Public Works staff have summarized
department requirements in the staff report included as Attachment C.
Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law
Staff suggests the following findings of fact and conclusions of law as applicable to the project
and necessary for its approval.
1. The project site is located in the C-5, Thoroughfare Commercial Zoning District and
increases commercial land use efficiency in this area.
The proposed minor partition is permitted in any district including the C-5 zoning district. The
Comprehensive Plan encourages innovative residential planning and development techniques
that would help to increase land use efficiency and reduce costs of utilities and services
(Comprehensive Plan, page XII-12).
2. The project consists of a tentative plan application for the subdivision of
approximately 0.95 acres into three parcels for the purpose of separating commercial land
use from non-conforming residential land uses coexisting on a single tax lot.
The proposed minor partition meets the requirements of the City's subdivision and zoning codes
for commercial lots. A variance is required to satisfy the specific requirements of the C-5 zone
(Section 17.46.OSO.C). The tentative plan includes all information required by CPMC 16.38.010
et. seq.
3. The Planning and Public Works Departments have reviewed the tentative plan for
the proposed subdivision and the findings of fact and determined that the project meets all
City standards and requirements subject to approval of a zone variance and recommended
conditions of the Planning Department (Attachment E) and the Public Works Department
(Attachment C).

CENTRAL POINT MUNICIPAL CODE: )
FINDINGS OF FACT
John Addington, Applicant; The Richard )
)
Stevens Company, L.L.C., Agents )
1
I. INTRODUCTION:
In June of 1998, an application for a minor partition for a parcel of land located
between Cedar and Bush Streets, just off Pacific Highway, was submitted to the City of
Central Point. The parcel under discussion is described as T.37S, Range 2W, Section
11, Tax Lot 3900. The property is developed for a combination of residential and
commercial uses (Boulder Brothers shop). The proposal is to segregate the
commercial from the residential purposes.
The City Planning Staff contacted the agents regarding the tentative plat, and
informed them that the tentative plat must also include a Subdivision Variance in order
to be deemed complete, since one of the lots created did not meet the minimum
requirements for lot depth and width, as provided in CPMC Section 17.46.050.
These Findings of Fact are the supporting documents necessary to deem the
applications complete, and allow staff to schedule a public hearing before the Planning
Commission on this issue.
II. CRITERIA:
The criteria for a variance are contained in Chapter 16.40 of the CPMC.
Standards for variances are contained in Section 16.40.020, which essentially states
that a variance may be approved if:
A. That strict application of the provisions of this title would result in an
unnecessary hardship which was not self-imposed or created by action of the
property owner.
V ~ V
B. That there are special conditions, such as exceptional or extraordinary
physical features of the property such as size, shape, topographical or similar
features affecting the property that are not common to all property in the area.
C. That the variance is not being sought merely to circumvent the intent of a city
requirement, and that the variance, if granted, would be faithful to the spirit and
intent of the regulation in question, and would not be detrimental to the public
health, safety or welfare.
D. That there would be no adverse impact of any sort upon other properties
within the City.
E. That there is no practical alternative to achieve the relief sought, and that if
granted, the variance allows no more than the minimum amount of relief from the
regulation in question necessary to achieve relief from the unnecessary
hardship.
III. FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW:
Discussion:
A review of this property, its location and orientation, use, and current state of
development indicates a history of use as an income property. The site contains a
commercial enterprise (Boulder Bros. shop), as well as a number of smaller residential
units that were developed in the 1930's and 40's, but all on the same parcel.
The property is long and narrow, and is basically the center portion of Block 19
of the Bush Street Subdivision, including a previously vacated alley (Volume 277, -Page
313, Jackson County Records). The purpose of the tentative plat is essentially to
divide off the shop facility and a single unit, while retaining the multi-residential units on
a separate and distinct lot. When this is accomplished, additional water and sewer
hookups will more than likely be required, since the property is served by a minimum
amount of service (2 water meters, one serving 24 Cedar, and another serving 36
Cedar, and the five duplex units. However, the application does not comply with the
minimum lot sizes contained in the Central Point Municipal Code, which requires 100
foot depth and 50 foot width. The proposal does not meet this standard for the
proposed partition, due to the shape, size, and existing level of development on the
property.
The variance requested for this application is to the standard above, since the
size and shape of the property preclude any changes to the partition that was
submitted.
J V w 8
The following addresses the standards noted above:
A. The strict application of the provisions of this title would result in an unnecessary
hardship which was not self-imposed or created by action of the property owner.
The strict application of this section was intended to provide a minimum standard
for lot sizes when the parcels were originally created, generally through a partition or
subdivision process. When the standard was created, it was assumed that most
properties being divided would be unimproved, vacant lands, and the subdivider could
create uniform parcels consistent with the standard.
In this case, the property has a unique orientation, since it was originally created
as part of the Bush Street Subdivision, which created long, narrow parcels in the first
place (see attached map). Secondly, with the vacation of the alley, the property ended
up in a strange configuration, essentially anon-conforming parcel that became the
center of a block, and not oriented to a street as would be a normal subdivision, and
that was ultimately developed with six residences and a commercial business, all under
the same ownership.
Since the property is already a unique orientation, and developed with a mixture
of uses, and abutting parcels are also developed and not available for consolidation,
the applicant's desire to partition and sell the commercially oriented portion of the
property appears to be reasonable. The applicant (property owner) did not create this
unique configuration, but merely purchased the property as an investment. The
nonconformity with the lot size requirements is created by the size, shape, development
and orientation of the parcel, and is not the result of an action by the property owner.
8. That there are special conditions, such as exceptional or extraordinary physical
features, affecting the property, such as size, shape, topography or similar features,
affecting the property that are not common to all property in the area.
Again, as stressed above, the size, shape, development and configuration of the
property is extraordinary. Probably nowhere in Central Point will we.find a block
developed in such a manner as to have one large parcel, including a vacated alley,
oriented so as to be the center of the block, from north to south, with such minimal
street frontage as exists on this site. A review of development on abutting parcels
indicates that none of the blocks surcounding this property have developed in such an
unconventional manner.
C. That the variance is not being sought to circumvent the intent of the city
requirement, and that the variance, if granted, is faithful to the spirit and intent of the
regulation in question, and will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare.
J V ~. 9
As noted above, the intent of the subdivision ordinance, in proscribing a uniform
minimum lot configuration, was to provide some degree of uniformity in terms of size
and orientation when land was originally developed. It appears clear that the
requirement was not generally conceived to apply to developed properties that were
developed under older, different regulations.
This application for division. of the property is in fact faithful to the spirit and
intent of the regulations in general, since it will create two parcels that can be better
utilized for their respective uses. Additionally, the action will in fact enhance the public
health, safety and welfare by solving along-term problem with water service serving the
property. The request is reasonable, given the circumstances, and is not intended to
circumvent the intent of the ordinance requirement.
D. That there will be no adverse impact of any sort upon other properties in the city.
There will be no adverse impact of any sort upon other properties in the city,
since none are affected. The application is reasonable, and provides a separation
between two disparate uses, resulting in a more reasonable orientation of the land.
The application will also result in addressing along-standing issue regarding water
service, which is a positive solution to an old problem.
E. There is no practical alternative to achieve the relief sought, and if granted, the
variance allows no more than the minimum amount of relief from the regulation in
question to achieve relief from the unnecessary hardship.
The hardship in this case deals with the ability of the property owner to finance
the properties. Most lending institutions will not loan, or will restrict loans, on
nonconforming parcels. In this case, the divergent uses on this parcel make it very
difficult to conform to loan committee ideals on use; is it commercial, ormulti-family?
The applicant would like the flexibility to sell the commercially oriented parcel, and
keep and refinance the residentially oriented piece. While the division complies with
lot depth requirements, the lot width issue on one parcel creates this problem. The
average lot width of the one parcel, including the commercial building, is consistent
with the requirement of the ordinance.
There really is no practical alternative to achieve the relief sought. The
variance, to the lot width requirement, is the minimum relief sought, and achieves the
goal of both the property owner and the city in addressing an older, developed site that
poses some problems in terms of public facilities.
ib
IV. SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION:
This application is a reasonable request to divide a large, non-conforming parcel
into two parcels that are, generally, more conforming with the district. The partition
separates commercial uses from residential ones, and addresses a public facilities
issue that has been a thorn in the side of the city for some time.
The applicant purchased the property with the intent of selling the commercial
building to the lessors, and assumed that it would be a simple application. The size,
shape, orientation, and previous development on site create a unique situation that can
best be addressed via the variance procedure.
With this in mind, the applicant respectfully requests a variance to the lot width
criteria, and requests the Planning Commission adopt the above findings in support of
that decision.

1 page entitled "Proposed Partition for John Addington", dated 2/27198, prepared by
Farber & Sons, Inc.
Lee N. Brennan, Public Works Director
Provide information to the Planning Commission and Applicant (hereinafter referred to as "Developer")
regarding City Public Works Department (PWD) standards, requirements, and conditions to be
included in the partitioning of the proposed tax lot. Gather information from the Developer/Engineer
regarding the proposed partitioning.
This report is based on the understanding that the Developer is requesting this partition to divide the
existing uses of the existing tax lot up into separate parcels, and no major redevelopment plans are
being proposed.
Special Requirements
Bush Street Riaht-of-Wav: Review of County Surveyor's maps indicates that the right-of-way
width on Bush Street to the South of the proposed partition is 50.feet. The sections of Bush
street to the east have aright-of-way width of 60 feet. The City is in the process of redefining
the street network for the Cky. The current thinking is to not make Fourth (4'") Street a
collector, but to divert the traffic onto Bush Street and out to Highway 99. This would require
that Bush Street become a collector type street. The street already has a 40-foot wide paved
width. To accommodate the installation of a 5-foot-wide sidewalk, the needed area behind the
sidewalk, and widening of the street as it approaches Front Street, we are requesting the
dedication of a five-foot portion of the subject partition on Bush Street (30 feet from centerline).
Public Utility Easements: Provide dedication of a separate 10-foot minimum width public
utilities easement (P.U.E.) along the subject properties frontage with Bush and Cedar Street,
for utility installation.
3. Imarovements to Bush and Cedar Streets: The Developer should be required to complete
all remaining infrastructure improvements to Bush and Cedar Streets including, but not limited
to sidewalks (Including replacement of existing non-compliant driveway aprons), bikeways,
street lights, and storm drainage. As approved by the City Administrator, the Developer may
l2
request or be required to defer any or all of the required improvements along Bush and Cedar
Streets until a later date. If any or all of the improvements are to be deferred to a later date,
then the Developer will be required to enter into a suitable deferred improvement agreement
with the City for the noted improvements along the development's frontages with Bush and
Cedar Streets.
4. Water Service: Currently the property is served by two services: 24 and 36 Cedar Street,
which serve the two residential dwelling units fronting Cedar Streets. The connection of
domestic water service to the five dwelling units and the Auto Repair shop is inferred to be off
the two meters that serve the two residential dwelling units on Cedar. With the proposed
partition, a separate water service will need to be made to each building. However, it is our
understanding that the house located on the proposed parcel no. 2 will be removed. Thus the
service at 24 Cedar Street will become the service for the Auto Repair Shop located on Bush
Street. The services shalt be provided in accordance with current City standards.
5. Water Well: There is an existing water well on parcel 2. This well shall either be properly
abandoned in accordance with Oregon Water Resource Department requirements, or a
suitable backflow prevention assembly shall be installed on the water service serving this
parcel.
6. Trash Dumpster. Suitable trash receptacles shall be provided for the various parcels.
Currently one trash receptacle (dumpster) has been placed within the right-of-way of Bush
Street. This dumpster (as well any other trash or recycling receptacle) shall be located in an
area that is outside the public rights-of-way and which do not interfere with the required vision
sight triangles. The trash receptacles may be temporarily placed within the public rights-of-way
for pick-up but shall be promptly removed from the right-of-way after collection has occurced.
Storm Drainage 1»fiastructure: The developer shall develop a facility plan for the storm drain
collection and conveyance system which provides for run-off from and run-on onto the
proposed parcels, and any future development on adjacent properties. Sheet flow storm
drainage across the future or existing sidewalk area is not permitted, except as normally
permitted with a residential dwelling unit (i.e run-off from a driveway).
8. Sanitary Sewer. The partitioning of the subject tax lot will likely require modifications to the
existing sanitary sewer collection and conveyance system on the subject tax lot, and possibly
regarding the connections to the sanitary sewer mains. The Developer shall contact and abide
by the requirements of BCVSA for any required modifications to the sanitary sewer collection
and conveyance system necessitated by the proposed partition. All sanitary sewer collection
and conveyance system (SS System) design, construction and testing shall conform to the
standards and guidelines of the Oregon DEO, 1990 APWA Standards, Oregon Chapter, Bear
Creek Valley Sanitary Authority (BCVSA), and the City PWD Standards, where applicable.
9. enera/ All construction of public improvements shall conform to the City's PWD Standards,
the conditions approved and stipulated by the Planning Commission, and other special
specifications, details, standards, and/or upgrades as may be approved by the City
Administrator or his designee prior to the approval of the construction plans for the proposed
development. During construction, changes proposed by the Developer shall be submitted in
writing by the Developers engineer to the City PWD (and Building Department (as applicable)
for approval prior to implementation.

Subject: Addington Partition- 98044
Dear Ken,
We have reviewed the subject planning action with regard to providing sanitary sewer service to
the project location.
From previous investigation it appears the proposed use, in order to conform to the Uniform
Plumbing Code, will require new sewer service line extensions from parcels 2 and 3 to a public
sanitary sewer main line.
The system of service lines serving the buildings of parcel 3 will need to be disconnected from
the house on parcel 1 and rerouted to the Bush Street sewer main.
The Auto shop, on parcel 2, being a commercial use will have to be disconnected from the parcel
3 service line and rerouted in a separate service line to the public sewer main.
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the proposed planning action.

Dunlap, yes; Foster, yes; Gilkey, yes; Johnson, yes.
V. PUBLIC APPEARANCES
Allyson Kelley, who is interested in purchasing and developing property at 131 Front
Street (the Cook House) appeared before the Commission. Ms. Kelley was looking for
direction, as far as possible uses of the facility. The property is currently zoned light
industrial. After some discussion of industrial vs. commercial zoning, the Planning
Commission recommended pursuit of re-zoning.
VI. BUSINESS
A. Continued Public Hearing to consider a request by Ted Branch to develop Griffin
Creek Estates a Tentative Plan fora 151ot subdivision in the vicinity of West Pine
Street and Corcoran Lane in the R-1-8 zoning district.
There were no ex-parte communications or conflicts of interest.
Tom Humphrey reviewed the Planning Department Staff Report. The tentative plan
has been revised since its original submission, adding one lot (16 lots total);
eliminating through lots; redesigning the street to a 33 foot wide right-of--way; and
designating some park and open space areas. One of the requirements of the
developers would be a fence between the development and the Presbyterian Church.
Any decision would be on condition of approval from Fire District #3.

Lee Brennan reviewed the Public Works Staff Report. Parking is a major concern
in the cul-de-sac and on one side of the new street.. Another concern is the sight
triangle at each entrance. Commissioner Johnson suggested making the street aone-
way street, which would help with the parking problem, as well as the sight triangle.
Herb Farber spoke as agent for Ted Branch. He reiterated that Mr. Branch does
intend to convey the day use area park to the City, even though it was omitted on
the most current map. Mr. Branch stated that most of the letters of objection were
submitted before the current plan, and most of the concerns have already been
addressed. There are no longer any through lots. He also said that they could
accommodate the 2-1/2 foot public utilities right-of--way, and that they would not
object to a one way street. Lee Brennan asked that they resolve any issues with
BCVSA before continuing with the project. Mr. Farber requested that the
Planning Commission approve the plan contingent upon all department's (police,
fire, etc.) approval of the one way street.
Commissioner Johnson made a motion to adopt Resolution 435 per staff
reports and discussion, and subject to the approval of all departments, to
approve a request by Ted Branch to develop Griffin Creek Estates, a
Tentative Plan fora 161ot subdivision in the vicinity of West Pine Street and
Corcoran Lane in the R-1-8 zoning district, with the understanding that
Mr. Branch and Public Works will come to an agreement on parking and
sight triangles in the event that all departments are not in favor of a one-way
street. Motion was seconded by Bob Gilkey. ROLL CALL: Dunlap, yes;
Foster, yes; Gilkey, yes; Johnson, yes.
B. Withdrawal of Schwichtenbergpronerty~1.025 acresl from Jackson Count,
Protection District No. 3 following its Annexation to the City of Central Point.
Planning Technician, Ken Gerschler presented the Planning Department Staff
Report. Because the Schwichtenberg property has been annexed, it will now be
protected under the City's contract with Fire District No.3, and therefore will no
longer need to be covered under Jackson County Rural Fire District No. 3.
Commissioner Dunlap made a motion recommending withdrawal of the
Schwichtenberg property (1.025 acres) from Jackson County Fire Protection
District No. 3. Commissioner Foster seconded the motion. All said "aye"
and the motion passed.

C. Historic Review Board consideration of a request by Deana Sims to locally
recognize the house located at 434 Manzanita Street as historically significant.
Deanna Sims and her real estate agent, Jeff Leever, came before the Historic
Review Board to request that the home, located at 434 Manzanita Street and
recently purchased by Ms. Sims, be locally recognized as historically significant.
She stated that the house was probably built around the turn of the century, as
some newspapers of the 1890 vintage were found in the walls of the home, used
as insulation. The first actual registration of the home was in 1920, which could
be either when it was built or remodeled. Historic designation would allow the
house to be completely rebuilt in the event of a fire and enable Ms. Sims to obtain
a loan to complete her purchase of the property.
Commissioner Dunlap made a motion to recommend the City Council locally
recognize the house located at 434 Manzanita Street as historically
significant. Commissioner Foster seconded the motion. All said "aye" and
the motion passed.
VII. MISCELLANEOUS
Tom Humphrey, Planning Director, said that he has received three proposals on
the downtown revitalization plan. He will be meeting with some downtown
representatives to prepare a recommendation.
Mr. Humphrey stated that the TSP will present new material as it is available at
future Planning Commission meetings.
Ken Gershler, Planning Technician, informed the members of the Commission
that Tom Malot, one of our local contractors, had suffered a major stroke.
VIII. ADJOURNMENT
Commissioner Gilkey made a motion to adjourn. Motion was seconded by
Commissioner Dunlap. All said "aye" and the meeting adjourned at 9:00 p.m.
PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT
MEETING
DATE: December 15, 1998
TO: Central Point Planning Commission
FROM: Tom Humphrey, Planning Director
SUBJECT: Public Hearing - To consider a minor partition and variance from lot
dimensions on property located 70 feet south of First Street between Cedar
and Bush Streets in the C-5 zoning district (372W11 Tax Lot 3900).

Summar,~ The applicant has submitted a proposal to partition a 0.95 acre parcel into
three parcels and vary from the lot size requirements on two of the three
parcels. The single tax lot is currently occupied by an auto shop and six
legally non-conforming dwellings. The applicant's goal is to separate the
various uses from one another for sale and/or refinancing.
Authority: CPMC 1.24.050 vests the Planning Commission with the authority to hold
a public hearing and render a decision on any application for minor
partition and variance. Notice of the Public Hearing was given in
accordance with CPMC 1.24.060.
Annlicable Law: CPMC 16.10.010 et seq. -Tentative Plans
CPMC 16.40.010 et seq. -Variances
CPMC 17.46.010 et seq. -C-S, Thoroughfare Commercial District
Discussion:
The issues associated with this proposal are not quite as clear as they first appeared to City staff.
The minor partition involves redefining boundaries between existing conforming and non-
conforming land uses and structures which were built over several vacated rights-of--way.
The Planning and Public Works Departments have reviewed the tentative plan and variance for
compliance with the City's code requirements and water, sewer, storm drain and transportation
v~~ 1
standards. Two issues that have not yet been clarified and are holding up staff recommendations
involve the redistribution of water service and service connections, deeded property boundaries
and the need for additional right-of--way dedication. It is also unclear why the small house on
Cedar should be part of Parcel # 2 instead of Parcel # 1. City staff have scheduled a meeting
with the applicant to clarify and resolve these issues. Therefore, it is recommended that the
Commission continue the public hearing for this item three weeks to the next regularly scheduled
meeting on January 5, 1998.
If there are persons present who may not be able to attend the hearing in January, the
.Commission may wish to allow testimony or questions from these people and then continue the
hearing.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission take the following action:
1. Continue the public hearing for the Tentative Plan and variance applications until the next
regularly scheduled meeting of the Planning Commission.

MEETING
DATE: December 15, 1998
TO: Central Point Planning Commission
FROM: Tom Humphrey, Planning Director
SUBJECT: Public Heazing - To consider a Tentative Plan for an 81ot (padlot)
subdivision on the north side of Cherry Street west of its intersection with
North 10th Street in the R-3 zoning district (372W2BC Tax Lot 603).

Summary The applicant has submitted an infill development proposal to subdivide
an existing 0.82 acre tax lot along an improved City street into 8 padlots.
Authority: CPMC 1.24.050 vests the Planning Commission with the authority to hold
a public hearing and render a decision on any application for a Tentative
Plan. Notice of the Public Hearing was given in accordance with CPMC
1.24.060.
Applicable Law: CPMC 16.10.010 et seq. -Tentative Plans
CPMC 17.28.010 et seq. -R-3, Residential Multiple-Family District
CPMC 17.60.130 et seq. -Access
CPMC 17.60.210 et seq. -General Provisions, Padlot Developments
Discussion:
Padlot Developments
Padlot developments are a permitted use in all zoning districts in Central Point with the
exception of the R-1 district. Development proposals are normally processed as a subdivision
application which is how East Cherry Estates is being introduced. Under CPMC 17.60.210,
parent lots must comply with the standard requirements for lots, which in the R-3 zone call for a
lot area of 6000 square feet. Additionally, CPMC 17.60.130 requires a minimum frontage for
padlots of not less than 30 feet. Each of the pazent lots in this subdivision meet both the
minimum frontage and lot azea requirements.
~~~ 5
This application for a padlot subdivision is proposed for property that is currently vacant and
situated north of a similar subdivision. The majority of infrastructure improvements were
installed on East Cherry Street as part of the Bluebird Heights development. The Public Works
Department has stated that there are no as-built drawings to reflect earlier improvements and that
the City may require additional dedication of easements and right-of--way to match the existing
conditions and to incorporate the existing infrastructure (see Attachment C). Further
subdivision of the subject tax lot will also result in some street excavation to increase the number
of service lateral connections. Public Works will require the developer to overlay the northern
half of Cherry Street to maintain its structural integrity after new connections are made. A
further requirement is that overhead utilities be undergrounded and existing utility poles removed
to match what has been done in Bluebird Heights.
Subdivisions
The subdivision design attached to this report has been reviewed for completeness by City staff
and is the one the applicant would like the Commission to consider as the most desirable plan.
The Planning Department has reviewed the tentative plan for compliance with the City's
Comprehensive Plan and zoning code. The area is designated for high density residential
development and is zoned R-3. This infill development will result in a more efficient use of
residentially zoned land and improve the overall appearance and value of this property and
neighborhood.
The Public Works Department has reviewed the tentative plan for compliance with the City's
water, sewer, storm drain and transportation standards. Public Works staff have summarized
department requirements in the staff report included as Attachment C.
Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law
Staff suggests the following findings of fact and conclusions of law as applicable to the project
and necessary for its approval.
1. The project site is located in the R-3, Residential Multiple-Family Zoning District
and increases residential land use efficiency in this area.
The proposed tentative plan for single family residential development is a permitted use in the
R-3 zoning district. The zoning in turn is consistent with the Residential Comprehensive Plan
map designation. The Comp Plan encourages innovative residential planning and development
techniques that would help to increase land use efficiency and reduce costs of utilities and
services (Comp Plan, page XII-12). Infill projects of this sort are consistent with this city policy.
2. The project consists of a tentative plan application for the subdivision of
approximately 0.82 acres for the purpose ofdeveloping asingle-family residential (padlot)
subdivision, East Cherry Estates. The total number of lots proposed for the subdivision is
8. The average density for the subdivision is 9.75 units per acre.
s
The proposed single-family subdivision meets the density requirement for the R-3 residential
zone which is a maximum of 25 units per acre. Each parent lot within the subdivision meets the
requirements of the City's subdivision and zoning codes for residential lots as well as the specific
requirements of the R-3 zone. The tentative plan includes all information required by CPMC
16.10.010 et. seq.
3. The Planning and Public Works Departments have reviewed the tentative plan for
the proposed subdivision and the findings of fact and determined that the project meets all
City standards and requirements subject to the recommended conditions of the Planning
Department (Attachment E) and the Public Works Department (Attachment C).
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission take the following action:
1. Adopt Resolution No._, approving the tentative subdivision subject to the recommended
conditions of approval (Attachment E); or
2. Deny the tentative subdivision; or
3. Continue the review of the tentative subdivision at the discretion of the Commission.

Lee Brennan, Public Works Director
Provide information to the Planning Commission and Applicant (hereinafter referred to as "Developer") regarding
City Public Works Department (PWD) standards, requirements, and conditions to be included in the design and
development of the proposed residential subdivision. Gather information from the Developer/Engineer regarding
the proposed development.
Special Requirements
Existing Infrastructure: The Developer shall demonstrate that all connections to existing infrastructure
(i.e. streets; water, sanitary sewer, storm drain systems; natural drainage systems; etc.,) will not intertere
with or provide for the degradation of the existing effective level of service or operation of the
infrastructure facilities, and that the existing infrastructure facilities have either adequate capacities to
accommodate the flows and/or demands imposed on the existing infrastructure as the result.of the .
connection of the proposed development's infrastructure, or will be improved by and at the expense of the
Developer to accommodate the additional flows and/or demands; while maintaining or improving the
existing level of service of the affected facility, as approved by (as applicable), the regulatory agency,
utility owner, and/or property owner involved.
2. Cherrv Street Improvements: In review of City files, there are no as-built drawings reflecting the
improvements installed on Cherry Street. The current alignment of Cherry Street and the location of
infrastructure (in particular the sanitary sewer line) may require additional dedication of easements and
right-of--way to match the existing conditions and to incorporate the existing infrastructure. We are
recommending that the Developer be required to provide construction plans and make any applicable
modification to the plat which reflect the as-built conditions.
3. Water and Sewer Laterals: There are only two existing water service laterals identified. The remaining
six lots will require additional water service lateral connections to the mainline, which will likely require
street excavation. As discussed above, the City does not have any record of the sewer lateral
installations. Sewer lateral connections to lots 6, 7, and 8 will likely require excavation work in the street.
The City PWD is therefore recommending that the Developerbe required to provide a suitable asphalt
concrete (Type C mix) overlay of the northern half of Cherry street once all excavation work and street
patching work is completed.
4. Overhead Electrical. Teleahone and Cable Lines: Coordinate efforts with Pacific Power and Light, US
West, ahd TCI Cable, to convert any overhead electrical power, telephone, or cable facilities within the

proposed development (as a minimum, the infrastructure on PPL pole no. 631544 and 631545) to
underground facilities, and removal of the existing utility poles prior to the acceptance by the City PWD of
the public improvements associated with the proposed development. All agreements and costs associated
with the conversion of these facilities from overhead to underground facilities, shall be by and between the
utility owners and the Developer.
5. Lot Drainage: The existing topography indicates that the proposed lots have surface drainage which
drain the lot from the street to the back of the lots. It also appears that the existing surface water drainage
from tax lots 400, 500, and 501 drain to the northern portions of lots 1 through 6, with a general
depression in the area of lot 6. The surface drainage from the proposed lots must not drain across
another lot, and the existing drainage problem shall be addressed. Any discharge of accumulated waters
onto adjoining tax lots must be approved by the affected tax lot owners, prior to construction.
A suggestion may include the incorporation of a private storm drain system (i.e french drain) that collects
the surface water in these area, and conveys the water via an underground pipe to the City's storm drain
system.
6. Utility Easements: A 10-foot wide P.U.E. should be required on the north side of the Cherry Street
right-of-way, on Lots 1 through 8.
General
All construction of public improvements shall conform to the City's PWD Standards, the conditions
approved and stipulated by the Planning Commission, and other special specifications, details, standards,
and/or upgrades as maybe approved by the City Administrator or his designee prior to the approval of
the construction plans for the proposed development. During construction, changes proposed by the
Developer shall be submitted in writing by the Developer's engineer to the City PWD for approval prior to
implementation.
2. Developer shall provide copies of any permits, variances, approvals, and conditions as may be required
by other agencies, including, but not limited to (as applicable), Fire District No. 3, the Oregon Department
of Fish and Wildlife (DFW), Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEO), Oregon Division of
State Lands (DSL), U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE), affected irrigation districts, and JC Roads.
3. Prior to approval and acceptance of the project, the Developer's engineer or surveyor shall provide the
Public Works Department with "as-built" drawings. If feasible, the Developer's engineer or surveyor
should provide the drawings in both a "hard copy" form (produced on Mylar®) and in a "digital" format
compatible with AutoCAD®, or other form as approved by the City PWD.
As-built drawings are to be provided to the City which provide "red-line" changes to final approved
construction plans that identify the locations and or elevations (as appropriate) of actual installed items,
including, but not limited to, invert, inlet, and rim or lip elevations; spot elevations identified on drawings;
road alignment; water lines, valves, and fire hydrants; water and sewer lateral stationing; modifications to
street section; manhole and curb inlet locations; street light locations; other below grade utility line
locations and depths; etc. Provide a "red-line" hard copy (on Mylar~, or an approved alternative format,
of construction drawings, and if feasible, an acceptable AutoCAD® compatible drawing electronic file to
the City at completion of construction and prior to acceptance of public infrastructure facilities completed
as part of the proposed development, or as othervvise approved by the City Administrator or his designee.
4. All elevations used on the construction plans, on temporary benchmarks, and on the permanent
benchmark shall be tied into an established City approved benchmark and be so noted on the plans. At
least one permanent benchmark shall be provided for the proposed development, the location of which
shall be as jointly determined by the City PWD and the Developer.

5. If applicable, all existing concrete, pipe, building materials, structures, clear and grub materials, and other
deleterious materials shall be removed from the site and either recycled or properly disposed of in
accordance with the requirements of the DEQ.
6. Easements for City infrastructure (i.e. sanitary sewer, water, and storm drain [if applicable]) should be a
minimum of 15-feet wide, and should not split lot lines. Easements for public storm drainage, sanitary
sewer, and water lines should be dedicated to the City and not just a P.U.E. Centerline of buried
infrastructure shall be aligned a minimum of five (5) feet from the edge of the easement. If two or more
City owned utilities are located within an easement, then a minimum of 20-foot width should be required.
Easement dedications in final deeds or CC&Rs need a statement which should clearly indicate that
easements must be maintained with suitable, driveable vehicular access to City public infrastructure
facilities, as determined by the City PWD.
7. Prior to the City PWD final approval of the construction plans for the proposed improvements, the
following should be submitted:
^ A copy of written approval from Fire District 3 of the final street and driveway layout, site access,
fire hydrant placement, and water system improvement plans for the proposed development.
^ The plans relating to the sanitary sewers should be approved in writing by BCVSA, and the
appropriate signature blocks should be completed on the plans.
8. Field verify all existing infrastructure elevations and locations (i.e. pipe inverts, curb elevations, top of
banks, ditch/channel inverts, street elevations, etc.), to which the proposed development's infrastructure
will connect into existing improvements, prior to final construction plan design and submittal for final
approval.
9. The accurate locations of any existing underground and above ground public infrastructure, and the
location of the associated easements with these facilities, shall be accurately portrayed (both horizontally
and vertically) on the construction plans and as-built drawings.
10. The Developer's engineer or surveyor shall provide to the Public Works Department a drawing of the
recorded Final Plat map reproduced on Myla~' and in an acceptable electronic form in AutoCAD® format.
The Final Plat shall be tied to a legal Government corner and the State Plane Coordinate System. The
Final Plat shall either reflect or be later modified to reflect any applicable "red-line' changes noted in the
construction "as-builts", at the discretion of the City Administrator or his designee.
11. Roof drains and underdrains shall not be directly connected to public storm drain lines, and shall drain
either to an on-site private storm drain system or discharge at the curb face.
12. Storm drain pipe materials within the City's rights-of-way or easements shall be PVC, HDPE, or
reinforced concrete, with water-tight joints meeting the requirements of ASTM D3212, F477, and C-443M,
as applicable. Provide concrete (in areas within the rights-of-way) orsand-cement slurry (in areas
outside the rights-of-way) encasement where required in areas of minimum cover.
13. As applicable, Developer's engineer shall provide hydrology and hydraulic calculations and flow line plots
for private and public storm drains. Plot HGL on profile or provide a separate profile drawing that indicates
the HGL on the profile. Pipes should maintain cleansing velocity (minimum 2.0 feet per second) and have
adequate capacities without surcharging during the design storm.
14. Sheet flow surface drainage from the property onto the public rights-of-way or onto neighboring
properties is unacceptable.
