association.
Lee Brennan, Public Works Director, presented the Public Works Department
Staff Report. Public Works will allow for parking on alternate sides of the
sheet, but recommends that no parking be allowed in the first 100 feet of
Parkwood Terrace from Meadowbrook Drive. They also recommend that no
parking be allowed on the cul-de-sac. The 55-foot minimum sight triangle
cannot be met on Meadowbrook, and may be reduced to 25 feet. Public Works
recommends that when the cost reimbursement methodologies are established,
and the area of benefit determined, that the Development be required to pay the
apportioned share of costs for the new master water meter and transmission line
installations.
Kevin Neering, developer, and Bob Neathamer, agent, addressed the Planning
Commission. They requested a front setback variance of 18' instead of 20'.
They are willing to work with staff on sight triangles, etc.
Curt Johnson, 1225 Crater Lake Avenue, Medford, spoke in opposition to the
project. He spoke on behalf of Mr. & Mrs. Woods, 4460 Hamrick Road. They
requested a site and sound buffer between the existing properties. They also
requested an extension of Parkview Avenue to the south, in order to continue
progress to the south of the development. They would like to see a signal
installed on Hamrick Road. Mr. Johnson asked how this property qualif ed for
a PUD.
Mr. Neering and Mr. Neathamer stated that Cyprus trees already exist as a
sight/sound barrier between the properties, and they will be building fences.
They also stated that Oak View will provide access to the Woods' property.
Commissioner Johnson made a motion to adopt Resolution 451 approving
a planned unit (pad lot) development and tentative plan introduced by
Parkwood Terrace Estates, LLC to subdivide 4.4 acres of land into 45
residential lots, to include pedestrian access and sight/sound buffer
(fencing and landscaping) on the south side of the development, and all
staff report requirements. The subject property is located south of Beebe
Lane 125 feet east of Hamrick Road in the R-2, Two-Family Residential
zoning district. Motion was seconded by Commissioner Fish. ROLL
CALL: Motion passed unanimously.

B. Public hearing to consider a tentative plan introduced by Lou Mahar and Pacific
Trend Building Company to subdivide 13.3 acres of land into 48 residential lots
known as Brookfield Estates. The subject property is located on the south side
of Taylor Road and east of Grant Road in the R-1. Single Patnily Residential
zoning district.
There were no ex parte communications or conflicts of interest.
Tom Humphrey reviewed the Planning Department Staff Report. He stated that
due to the amount of traffic on Taylor and Haskell Roads, Lou Mahar, applicant
for Broookfield Estates, the LDS Church and W.L Moore Construction have all
agreed to participate in a traffic study and abide by its subsequent
recommendations. In order to encourage alternative modes of transportation in
Brookfield Estates, a 12 foot wide pedestrian access way is proposed between
lots 39 and 40 for the purpose of connecting this development to the Mitchell's
Landing and Country Meadows Subdivisions. The proposed subdivision, located
in the vicinity of Horn and Jackson Creeks would be subject to, the special
setback requirements as they pertain to flood protection. Mr. Humphrey told
the Commission that they could only continue this item with the consent of
the applicants because state land use law obligates the City to act within 120
days. The commission's alternatives are to deny the application for cause
or to conditionally approve it.
Lee Brennan reviewed the Public Works Staff Report. The City will require a
Minimum of 88 feet for right-of--way on Taylor Road as it is a secondary arterial
type street. This requirement may be increased or decreased pending
recommendations provided in the traffic study. Depending on the conclusions
reached by the traffic study, the street layout presented in the tentative plan may
have to be modified. The Developer will be responsible for all "half street"
improvements to Taylor Road along the property frontage. No permanent
access should be allowed onto Taylor Road from the development. A suitable
fence should be installed along Taylor Road. The Developer should be required
to have a 100-year flood study analysis performed. The developer will be
responsible for• sharing the costs associated with the construction of a water line
along Taylor Road.
Dennis Hofibuhr spoke on behalf of applicant, Lou Mahar. I-Ie pointed out that
they had been working on this project since last fall and they would like to begin
the first phase of construction this season and continue on with the second phase

in the year 2000. He said it would be easy to delete lots if they become un-
buildable after the flood and traffic studies are complete. They are willing to
work with City Staff.
Mr. Bob White, 410 Brad was opposed to the project, due to the traffic on
Taylor Road. Mr. Charles Hewitt, 200 Donna Way, was also opposed and was
concerned about additional traffic on Donna Way. Mr. Wayne Chipman, 205
Donna Way, suggested abreak-away barrier, so that Donna Way would be
connected, but not a through street. Kent DeYarman, 3775 Old Military Road,
suggested bike paths and sidewalks to alleviate some of the traffic. Myrl
Jacobsen, 211 Donna Way stated that all the additional traffic would come out
onto Rachel, increasing the problem there. Bob Gilkey, 1165 Gatepark, who had
attended a meeting of the residents as a park commissioner, stated that no one
had promised that Donna Way would be blocked off, as had been suggested.
Commissioner Fish asked if the residents on Donna Way could forrn a local
improvement district to put in sidewalks. Lee Brennan said that would be
possible.
Commission Johnson made a motion to adopt Resolution 452 to
approve a tentative plan introduced by Lou Mahar and Pacific Trend
Building Company to subdivide 13.3 acres of land into 48 residential lots
known as Brookfield Estates, subject to staff reports, flood and traffic
studies and to include a south side pedestrian way to connect to Brad Way.
The subject property is located on the south side of Taylor Road and east
of Grant Road in the R-1, Single Family Residential zoning district. The
Commission would also like to encourage the developer to use any
unbuildable land For a pocket park. Commissioner Foster seconded the
motion. ROLL CALL: Motion passed unanimously.
C. Public hearing to consider a tentative clan introduced by W.L. Moore
Construction to subdivide 8.7 acres of land into 24 residential lots known as
Bohnert Estates. The subject property is located on the north side of Tabor
Road and west of Haskell Road in the R-2. Two-Family Residential zoning
district.
There were no ex parte communications or conflicts of interest.
Tom Humphrey presented the Planning Department Staff Report. The applicant
,, .,
City of Central Point
Planning Commission Minutes
]uue 1, 1999 -Page 5
has submitted a proposal to subdivide 12.7 acres of land into 24 residential lots.
The tentative plan actually depicts 48 lots, but the Moores will complete the
development in two phases, the second (future) phase pending the Transit
Oriented Development master planning. As in the other development, the City
has initiated a h•affic impact study which the applicants will participate in with
Lou Mahar and the LDS Church. Because the construction season is iinininent,
the Developers would like to proceed pending the outcotne of the traffic study.
The subdivision is adjacent to Griffin Creek and would be subject to the setback
requirements as they pertain to flood protection. Public Works is requiring the
applicant to perform a special flood analysis. This site is located in the R-2,
Residential Two-Family Zoning District, but the applicant has chosen to plan for
single family residences, with large lots to accommodate an exceptionally wide
flood plain.
Commissioner Fish made a motion to proceed beyond 10:00 p.m.
Commissioner Lunte seconded. All said "aye" and the meeting continued.
Lee Brennan presented the Public Works Staff Report. The Public Works
Department and Planing Department are working on revising street-section
requirements to possibly include the incorporation of a planter strip between the
curb and the sidewalk. This strip would be a minimum of 3 feet wide and provide
a space for placing trees and other decorative plantings and allow for a safety
buffer for pedestrians. Public Works is recommending that no permanent
access be allowed onto Taylor road. This will require that lots 1 and 2 will need
to have access from Otto Boulevard. A suitable fence should be installed on
Taylor Road. The Developer should be required to have a supplemental 100-
year flood study analysis performed.
Herb Farber, agent for W.L. Moore, stated that they started work on this project
in January 1996. They are willing to move the sidewalks back as far as
necessary to accommodate fire hydrants and water meters. They would still
maintain a 20' setback from the sidewalk so that cars could be kept in the
driveway, and off of the sidewalk. The Moores felt that the existing flood study
that has been done by FEMA should be used, rather than requiring a complete
new flood study.
Bill Evans, 2061 Taylor Road, spoke in opposition to the development. He
suggested that traffic on Taylor needs to be controlled and possibly another
main arterial should be established to accommodate the area's traffic. Bob

White, 410 Brad Way, suggested that another railroad crossing or widening of
Taylor may ease the problem.
I Ierb Farber suggested that the traffic problem may be one of enforcement. He
also pointed out that the Master Plan shows an additional railroad crossing.
There was some discussion regarding responsibility for sidewalk repair if the
sidewalks were outside of the easement.
Commissioner Fish made a motion to adopt Resolution 453 approving the
tentative plan introduced by W.L. Moore Construction to subdivide 8.7
acres of land into 24 residential lots known at Bohnert Estates, including
staff report recommendations, Mr. Farber's narration and submittals, a
bikeway, and a mutual agreement (to be resolved) on sidewalk repairs.
The garages on Otto Blvd. shall have a 20' setback from the sidewalk and
the City and the Developer shall reach an agreement regarding the flood
plain. The utilities shall remain above ground until the completion of the
Taylor Road improvements. The subject property is located on the north
side of Taylor Road and west of Haskell Road in the R-2, Two-Family
Residential .zoning district. Commissioner Foster seconded. ROLL
CALL: Motion passed unanimously.
D. Review of Title 15 and Title 17 as theLpply to fence heights on lots within
adopted zoning setbacks.
Mr. Humphrey submitted the existing regulation as follows and suggested
inserting "setback" in place of "corner of the main structure".
The maximum height for fences on or along the side Tines from the front
property line to a point opposite the nearest front corner of the main structure
(to be replaced by "setback") shall be three and one-half feet, and from the
nearest front corner of the main structure (to be replaced by "setback") to the
back line of the lot, the maximum height shall be six feet.
Mr. Brennan suggested adding "as long as the requirements of the Public Works
Department regarding sight-vision triangles are maintained".
Paul Lunte made a motion to modify the wording of Title 15 and Title 17,
as they apply to fence heights on lots within adopted zoning setbacks, as

Description/ 37 2W 02D Tax Lot 2900, 4.92 acres
Zonine: C-4, Tourist and Office Professional District
Summary
The applicant, Larne Development L.L.C. is proposing the minor partition ofa 4.52 acre parcel
into three parcels. The property is located near the intersection ofI,arue Drive and South Peninger
Road in the C-4, Tourist and Office Professional Zoning District.
Authority
CPMC 1.24.020 vests the Planning Commission with the authority to hold a public hearing and
render a decision on any application for a tentative plan land partition. Notice of the public hearing
was given in accordance with CPMC 1.24.060. (Exhibit B).

.a
Discussion
The project azea consists of a single 4.52 acre pazcel located south of the Pilot Travel Center and
west of Interstate 5 near the intersection of Lazue Drive and South Peninger Road. The minor
partition would create a total of three parcels of 0.61,1.18 and 2.47 acres respectively with the
remaining 0.26 acres committed to dedicated street right of way north and east of parcel 2.
The Planning Department has located the master plan originally submitted as a part ofthe Pilot
Travel Center (refer to Attachment "A"). The map depicted a looped access between Lazue Drive
and South Peninger Road that could provide future access to parcels south of the property
proposed for partition. Dave Minecci ofHoffbuhr and Associates was to check into the status of
the original master plan with the property owner. This land partition affects the road connectivity
as a link eastward across Bear Creek to Hamrick Road appears unlikely in the future due to the
financial constraints associated with a bridge crossing.
The Planning and Public Works Department have reviewed the site plan and the tentative plan for
theproposed minor land partition and have concluded thatthey complywith cityrequirements if
all conditions ofapproval pertaining to site development, minimum lot size, public works standards
and specifications and access to public roadways can be met.
Findings of Fact & Conclusions of Law
Minor Partition
CPMC 16.10.010 requires that applications for tentative plans be submitted with
improvement plans and other supplementary information as may be needed to indicate the
development plan.
The proposed minor partition satisfies the subdivision requirements listed in
CPMC 16.36.030 and CPMC 16.36.040. The Public Works Department may
request additional information to satisfy standard specification requirements.
CPMC 17.28.050 establishes minimum area, width and access requirements for the C-4, Tourist
and Office Professional district.
^ Parcels 1, 2 and 3 of the proposed partition meet the area, width and access
requirements for the C-4, Tourist and Office Professional District.

TENTATIVE LAND PARTITION PLAN REVIEW
PW#99033
Date: June 29, 1999
Applicant: LaRue Development, L.L.C.
Agent: Hoffbuhr & Associates, Inc., 1062 E. Jackson, Medford, Oregon 97504
Property
Owner: Frank Pulver, et. al . 1060 Crater Lake Ave., Suite C, Medford, Oregon 97504
Project: LaRue Partition
Location: South end of Peninger Road, at intersection with LaRue Drive.
Legal: T37S, R2W, Section 2D, tax lot 2900.
Zoning: C-4
Area: 4.5 Acres (approximately).
Parcels: 3
Plans: 1 page entitled "Land Partition Tentative Plat", dated April 6, 1999 prepared by
Hoffbuhr & Associates.
Report By: Lee N. Brennan, Public Works Director
Purpose
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 development of the proposed land partition. This staff report provides general requirements, and is
not intended to provide a thorough review of any development on these properties. Amore thorough staff
report will be prepared when tentative site plans are presented to the City for consideration by the
Planning Commission for development on the proposed parcels. Gather information from the
Developer/Engineer regarding the proposed partition.
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 interfere 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. Traffic Impact Studv: Because of the large volume of truck traffic in this area, a traffic impact
study may be warranted that evaluates the effects on the neighboring intersections and freeway
interchange as the result of development on these parcels. Based on the current truck and
vehicle traffic on this portion of Peninger Road, it is expected that any development on these
parcels would be development that typically has few expected traffic movements during "peak"
hours.

3. Rights-of-Way and Easements: Suitable right-of-way dedication will need to be provided for the
extension of LaRue Drive and Peninger Road. Additional right-of-way dedication may also be
warranted on the existing streets that are adjacent to or within the proposed partition, depending
on the type of development that will occur.
The Developer should provide suitable and acceptable easements (minimum 15-foot in width) for
any existing public works infrastructure, or public works infrastructure required for the
development, that are located outside the public rights-of-way.
A separate 10-foot minimum width public utilities easement (P.U.E.) should also be dedicated by
the Developer for utility installation outside the LaRue Drive and Peninger Road right-of-way
along the property's exterior frontage with these streets.
4. Street Layout. The proposed street layout may need to be modified to provide proper ingress
and egress into the proposed development and for future development of tax lot 2600 (which is
currently "landlocked") and possibly for tax lot 2700. Tax lot 2700 is a flag lot with access off of
Pine Street. Any commercial development on Tax lot 2700 with access to Pine Street would
require a separation of 200 feet from any intersection for development of a commercial driveway
on Pine Street. Currently there is not enough distance from the I-5 off-ramp/on-ramp intersection
to the access. point on Pine Street for a commercial driveway access for tax lot 2700, without a
variance. Thus access for tax lot 2700 off of LaRue Drive may be preferred.
5, Erosion Control Plan: To meet current DEQ requirements, and pending federal mandated
Phase II Storm Water Quality requirements, a suitable erosion control plan, utilizing best
management practices and procedures, must be prepared and submitted to the Oregon
Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) and the City PWD for review and approval for the
construction of any improvements associated with this development. The construction plans
associated with this development will not be approved by the City PWD until the City PWD
receives a copy of the written approval of the erosion control plan by the DEQ. The approved
erosion control plan must then be implemented to control and mitigate construction site storm
water run-off, erosion control, silt and sand migration, nuisance dust generation and migration,
and pollution prevention.
6. Master Plans: In association with City PWD staff, the Developer shall prepare master plans for
the storm drain collection, retention, and conveyance system, the sanitary sewer collection and
conveyance system, and the water distribution system for this area of the City. The master plans
should take into account the flows or demands of the proposed development, any future
development on neighboring portions of the subject tax lot, on neighboring properties, and any
areas deemed by the City that will need to connect-into the proposed development's or existing
neighboring infrastructure. The prepared master plans should take into account any previous
master plans that have been prepared and approved by the City, Jackson County, ODOT, and
BCVSA, as applicable.
Water Distribution System: Any development on these parcels will be connecting into the 12-
inch-diameter water line that is aligned in Peninger Road. This would result in a "single-feed"
non-reinforced water distribution system. City PWD would suggest that the designed system be
of reinforced ("looped") design, with a second connection to the City's water distribution system
~~

P I PU S/y)/ Rrpnrl
.lone _'9. 1999
Page 3
(preferably with a second connection to the water main on Pine Street). Required fire flows for
development on these parcels, and projected development on adjoining parcels will likely dictate
line sizes. The water mains will be of such diameter that facilitate water demands for projected
future development in the surrounding areas, and for completion of the City's water main
distribution system in this portion of the City. On other recent development projects, the City has
or is proposing to reimburse the developer for a portion of the costs for up-sizing of water lines
above the minimum water line diameter of 8-inches. The proposed water line reimbursement is
only for projects where the required up-sizing was not the result of the flow demands of the
development, but is the direct result of providing additional capacity for the supplemental
demands that may be placed on the water distribution system caused by additional surrounding
future development. The proposed reimbursement methodology for water line up-sizing includes
payment of the estimated material cost differences for the 8-inch-diameter versus 12-inch-
diameterpipe and appurtenances. This reimbursement methodology is similar to the
methodology used by the Medford Water Commission for this same type of water-line up-sizing.
We would propose this same type of reimbursement methodology for development on the
proposed partition.
8. Storm Drainage Svstem: The storm drain system shall be designed to accommodate the storm
water run-off from and run-on onto the proposed development (either surface run-on or culvert or
' creek/ditch conveyance); any future development on adjacent properties; conveyed storm
~` `" drainage or surface water flow, and any flows from areas deemed by the City that will need to
` corinect-into the proposed development's SD System. It appears that drainage from tax lots 2600
and tax lot 2700 will need to drain to and be conveyed through the designed storm drainage
conveyance system associated with the development on tax lot 2900. Thus City PWD is
'- recommending that the Developer(s) of these parcels be required to design the storm drainage
collection and conveyance system to accommodate projected post-development flows from these
adjoining tax lots. Storm drainage conveyance pipe stub-outs, through suitable easements in the
development, will need to be provided and storm drain conveyance lines may need to be up-sized
as necessary to accommodate existing and future developed property storm water run-off from the
applicable tax lots (i.e. "Area of Benefit"). If the storm drain lines are needed to be up-sized from
the size necessary to accommodate the development on tax lot 2900 and the storm water flows
from the existing development of the tax lots (i.e. "Area of Benefit") in the vicinity of the proposed
development, to provide additional capacity to accommodate the projected future developed flows
of the Area of Benefit tax lots, then the PWD would propose to compensate the Developer for the
upsizing above a minimum pipe size of 24-inch-diameter as per the methodology approved by the
City Council.
9. Off-Site Storm Drainage Infrastructure: For any storm drainage infrastructure constructed or
improved outside the City's rights-of-way or easements for drainage of surface waters from the
subject development, the Developer shall provide a suitable document or documents which

I'he applicant, Michael Mallet of484 Grand Avenue, would like to improve the value and livability ofhis
residence with the addition of square footage and a second story. To proceed with the plans, Michael has
asked that the Conunission review the Site Plan and consider g~~anting a variance from the minimum 20 foot
front yard setback and minmum 10 foot (2 story) side yard setback requirements ofthe R-1-8, Residential
Single Family zoning district. If the variances were to be approved, the applicant would constntct the two
story structure within 4 Feet oftlte westerly property line and 5 feet oftlte easterly property line. "fhe face
of the house would be located within 19 feet of the front property line.
Planned improvements to the existing single story structure originally constructed in 1949 include the
addition of656 square feet to the ground floor for larger family and utility areas. The second story addition
with dormers facing Grand Avenue would gain a master bedroom and bath .The total height for the
renovated structure will be 21 %: feet. Improvements to the exterior would include decorative lighting, a
new chimney, 8 inch lap siding and a covered porch. No additional landscaping is proposed in the
application packet. The parking requirements of CPMC 17.64.040 will be met by the applicant's proposal
of a single car carport incorporated into the house with a second detached unit in the rearyard with alley
access.
The maximum permitted aggregate building coverage for the R-1-8 district is 40 percent (2629.60 square
feet). The total square footage for the building footprint is 2322 square feet.
Findings of Fact & Conclusions of Law
Site Plan Review
In approving, conditionally approving or denying the plans submitted, the City bases it's decision on the
following standards from Section 17.72.040:
A. Landscaping and fencing and the construction of walls on the site in such a manner as to cause the same
to not substantially interfere with the landscaping scheme ofthe neighborhood, and in such a manner to use
the same to screen such activities and sights as might be heterogeneous to existing neighborhood uses. The
Commission may require the maintenance ofexisting plants or the installation ofnew ones for purposes of
screening adjoining property.
^ There is no additional landscaping proposed for this project. City staffwould like to work
with the applicant to design a suitable plan and implementation schedule.
B. Design, number and location of ingress and egress points so as to improve and to avoid
interference with the traffic flow on public streets;
^ The house is served by Grand Avenue to the north and an alley located at the rear of the
property.
1 ~
t:
C. "fo provide oft=street parking and loading facilities and pedesd•ian acid vehicle flow facilities in such a
manner as is compatible with the use for which the site is proposed to be used and capable of use, and in
such a manner as to improve aird avoid interference with the traffic flow on public streets;
The site plan depicts two covered off streef spaces, one as a part of the house and a
second unit is accessed from the alley.
D. Signs and other outdoor advertising structures to ensure that they do not conflict with or deter from
traffic control signs or devices and that they are compatible with the design oftheir buildings or uses and
will not interfere with or detract from the appearance or visibility of nearby signs;
^ Jackson County Fire District Number Three will require that the house address be
prominently placed on the front of the house facing Grand Avenue.
E. Accessibility and sufficiency of fire fighting facilities to such a standard as to provide for the reasonable
safety oflife; limb and properly, including, but not limited to, suitable gates, access roads and fire lanes so
that all buildings on the premises are accessible to fire apparatus;
y,.
^ An approval of thisprojectwouldbesubjecttotherecommendationsoftheFireDistrict
and the requirements of the Uniform Building Code.
F. Compliance with all city ordinances and regulations;
If the variance from the front and side yard setbacks were granted, the project would be
in compliance with the requirements of the Central Point Municipal Code.
G. Compliance with such architecture and design standards as to provide aesthetic acceptability in relation
to the neighborhood and the Central Point area and it's environs.
Exterior improvements like dormers, lap siding and decorative lighting contribute to the
character of the neighborhood.
Variance
A variance may be granted if findings are made as follows:
1. The Variance will provide added advantages to the neighborhood or the City such as beautification or
safety.
^ The proposed addition would upgrade the house to a more "liveable" home for the
residents and increase the property value.
_. 15
4
2. The Variance will not have any significant adverse impacts upon the neighborhood.
The second story building mass could impact the value of adjoining parcels. A second
story addition would create a building mass that could dwarf the houses to the east and
west but the applicant might reasonably argue that the second story improvements could
actually enhance the character and value of the neighborhood.
3. The Variance will utilize property within the intent and purpose of the zone district.
^ The home is located in an appropriately zoned R-1-8, Residential Single Family district.
4. Circumstances affect the property that do not apply to other property in the same zoning district.
^ There are no apparent differences between this and surrounding parcels.
5. The conditions for which the variance is requested were not self-imposed through the applicants' own
actions, nor the actions of the applicant's agents, employees or family members.
^ .The Grandview Addition Subdivision was originally platted in 1911 with standard tot
dimensions of 51 feet by 128.90 feet. The lot would not meet the current lot size
requirements and would limit the type of home that could be constructed.
The applicant has submitted a letter for consideration by the Commission (refer to attachment "A").
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission take one of the following actions:
1. Adopt Resolution No._, approving the Site Plan and zone variance subject to the recommended
conditions of approval (Attachment D ); or
2. Deny the proposed Site Plan and zone variance; or
3. Continue the review of the Site Plan and zone variance at the discretion of the Commission.

To City of Cenh•al Point P-atming Department: May 2nd, 1999
To Whom it may concern:
iV4y wife and I aze applying to the City of Central Point Planning & Building Deparments,
And to any one else to whom this proposal may concern; for perntission , and pet•tnits to build on,
improve, and update oru home.
Our home was built in 1949, and remodeled in the 1960's, I believe 1965. Part of their
remodel was closing in their single car gazage to add on one bed room plus another very small
room off of this same room. This duped this house from a one bedroom one badu•oom house to a
trvo bed room ,one bathroom house. This remodel also required that the ~vasher and dryer would
now be out in the open in the kitchen. Originally in our home the bed room was where the dining
room is and the kitchen was where the bedroom is. Door ways were filled in and walls cut out.
This gives it an appeazance of a remodel that looks like a cobbled up mess.
Our heating system is atr old boiler system which , I believe was put in, in 1949 and no
longer works. Our electricity is still hooked up to a fuse box on the outside of our house. It still
has the old 1949 wirirtg, and new wiring mixed in when remolded in the 1960's.
We are undertaking to come up with plans which would update ,improve, beautify, and
transform our home, from looking like a closed in, add on ,cobbled up house, to a Home that is an
atd•active, and a look of a one design home.
About a year ago now when my wife and I started undertaking this project of remodeling
our home, we contacted the City of Central Point. Tom Humpries, and Lois ; Of the City
Planning & Building Departments, offered a few hours of their valuable time to share of their
expertise of what we could and could not do. At drat time my wife and I carne to them with a
rough idea of what we would like to do. Basically at that time we wanted to extend our roof line
out over our walk way in front of our house, the full width of our home. Tlris would help change
the appearance of our house, also this would create a carport kdricfr is greatly needed. We felt this
would make our home more attractive to us and our neighborhood . We also discussed changing
the pitch of our roof and building it in all one direction, instead of the "s" shape it is in now.
This would allow us to have more attic space for storage which is greatly needed. Also we felt if
we put dormers on the front of our home, which is facing the street ,that this would make our home
more attractive to us and to our neighborhood. The other add on which we discussed with Tom
& Loie was extending our back porch and closing it is this would give us a little more room
which we would like and feel is greatly needed. This was our original rough first draft which we
presented to Tom & Lois.
Tom pointed out that some codes have changed concerning our car port. Originally our
single car garage which was closed in and converted to a small bed room, no longer meets the
codes of today. Irr 1949 it was ok. The other problems which we ran into are the east side of our
home is only four feet from our property line, and the front of the house sits about 1 to 1 '/z feet
closer to the road than it should be. After talking to Tom for a while he said drat this might be able
to be done by applying for special variances. Even though there was no guaranties, the time we
spent with Tom and Lois greatly encouraged us to prusue the remodeling, updating and
beautification of our home. My wife and I left there Drat day with more hope than we have had for
along time, concerning the updating of our house.
We had talked to someone from the City of Central Point 2 years Prior (by phone), and the
person speaking flatly said "No nothing could be done". Tom and Lois was shocked when they
heard this. Tlrey told ua that the city always listened and tried to help whenever possible.
Our next step was to contact a home designer to help us with the planning and design of our
house. The first designer we contacted was helping us, and it was at this time my wife and I
N 1
,~ ,
Ihotl~u that ifvve could take our up stairs attic room smd msil:e it into a living area .this would
u ork extrrmelc ~arll for us. Our one concern with buildigc an attic livit>fi to as up stairs ~cas
could or ~e~alls and foundation suppot't art up stairs attic licigg su'ea. It was at this time that «r
contacted a Strttchu'al Eq~inaer uanred Scott Priggle. Hr esune out atul exatnined our place and
said that with some foundation moditictttions that a second door could br added salah< SateR
was ow' main concern. e'w'e sue including a copy ofhis report. -
"Ilte tirst n; sister was a fl'iend tiront out of toatt and cce decided that tce reallc Headed
some one closer. At this time ~t: hied North~est i:~esisnt (David I'issrl to do our pl~m~. H:
sq~gested that cc~ put the attic uussr iu a diHar: nt die; ction than that of ~+hich our t7t'.~t ikai~ter

Scott Pt'insle to come back out to reevaluate smd tell ns if:unlhia~ would b needed.
~•Ve are applying for all vari<mcas that wa wilt need to update om' hone and to complete
this project. Arty sgggestions will be welcomed artd appreciated.
Some of the special variatrces neeclecl era:
1. East side of ow• home where vve adcl on to the back of our house, for need a ate foot
variance to hr able to keep our ast side wall and roof line in a straieJtt line instead of art uneven
ziszao_ line.
2. ltie also need a special variance for the Jiont (street side} of our home, so that we
would be able to extend our roof lim: over our walk way the fill length of ow' house. 11tis will
create a covered vvalk ~vay and a cat•ltort.

Attachment E
To: Honorable Planning Commission Chairman and Members
From: Lee Brennan, Public Works Director
Subject: Public Works Department Comments Regarding the Request for Setback Variances for the
Proposed Residential Site Plan for 484 Grand Avenue submitted by the Mallets.
Date: June 29, 1999
The Public Works Department has the following comments regarding the proposed subject development
and request for variance from the required front setback.
Front Setback from Crand Avenue: As illustrated in the applicant's map, and as verified in the field,
the existing dwelling structure is located approximately 24 feet from the face of the existing southern
street curb of Grand Avenue. Grand Avenue has aright-of way width of 50 feet, 25 feet from center
line. Thus the existing residential structure is located ("setback") approximately 17 feet from the City's
right-of--way. The applicants are proposing to further reduce the setback by an additional 5 feet, which
would result in a final set-back of 12 feet. This set-back is significantly shorter than the City's current
front set-back requirement of 20 feet for this type of residential development. The required clear-vision
triangle of 15-feet for residential access to a residential street cannot be afforded with the proposed set-
back.
The existing structure and location of the proposed car-port would only provide for a maximum length of
driveway from the structure to the right-of--way of 34 feet, which only provides for the accommodation of
off-street parking for one vehicle.
The alley way to the south of the property provides driveable access to the southern portion of the
property. There is suitable vacant property on the southern portion of the property to accommodate
construction and utilization of atwo-car garage or car-port in this area, with access from the alley.

Subject: Public Works Department Comments Regarding Final Development Plan Approval for
Cedar Shadows, a Planned Unit Development.
Date: June 29, 1999
The Public Works Department has the following comments regarding the proposed approval of the Final
Development Plan for Cedaz Shadows.
Public Works Infrastructure: The public works infrastructure associated with this development have
not been completed. In particulaz, the "looped" water distribution line serving the development has not
been completed. The Developer, (Dallas Page), has indicated difficulty in obtaining the required
easements for construction and maintenance of the required water lines. City PWD is recommending that
Mr. Page provide evidence that all necessary easements for installation of the improvements can be
obtained prior to final development plan approval.
As required in CPMC 16.12.070 and 16.12,080; prior to final plat approval, the Developer shall
.complete all required public improvements and repair any public facilities damaged as result of the
development, or shall execute and file with the City an agreement (Development Agreement) that assures
completion of the required improvements. The development agreement requires a "bond" to be provided
which is sufficient to cover the costs of the improvements and repairs, including related engineering and
incidental expenses, administrative expenses, inflationary costs, and the costs of City inspection. The
bond amount should also cover an estimated cost for easement acquisition for completion of the water
line, or for rerouting the water line, as applicable.
As described in CPMC 15.04.050, no building or structure shall be used or occupied until all public
works improvements aze completed and approved. As described in CPMC 16.12.070.B.4.a, the
Developer shall be required to advise a purchaser or prospective purchaser that no certificate of
occupancy will be issued until the City until completion and acceptance of all public improvements.

CITY OF CEN"fi~AL POINT
TIME .....~...-..-.
We have reviewed the subject planning action with regard to providing sanitary sewer service to
the project location.
It appears the proposed use will require a sewer extension of the existing offsite sewer line and
lines in proposed Shadow Way. Grants of sanitary sewer easement will be necessary for these
lines unless the streets are dedicated rights-of--way.
Additional information will be necessary to determine. the location of the main and service routing
and; easement needs the line serving lots 16 through 24.

PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT
MEETING
DATE: July 6, 1999
TO: Central Point Planning Commission
FROM: Tom Humphrey AICP, Planning Director
SUBJECT: Variance from fence requirements on Hamrick Road (372WOIC Tax Lot
800).
Ap~rlicant: USF Reddaway, Incorporated
2890 Nansen Drive
Medford, Oregon 97504
Summary: The applicant wishes to vary from fence height and material requirements
in order to add three strands of barbed wire and retain adequate security
for an industrially oriented freight forwarding facility. The subject parcel
is zoned M-1, Light Industrial.
Authority: CPMC 1.24.020 vests the Planning Commission with the authority to
review and decide , without a public hearing, any application for a fence
variance. Review is being performed in accordance with CPMC 1.24.050.
AQplicable Law: CPMC 15.20.040 et seq. -Fence Height on Lots
CPMC 15.20.080 et seq. -Fence Variances
Discussion•
As USF Reddaway neared the completion of its new construction and site improvements, both
the applicants and City staff realized that neither fence height nor fence materials had been
discussed. The applicant assumed that they could install a seven foot security fence and City
staff assumed that local standards would be followed. A subsequent review of the site plan
approved by the Commission revealed that the specifics of this subject were not discussed. The
applicants believe that, given the nature and location of their business, a taller barbed-wired
fence would offer better security and so they are pursuing this request for variance from
municipal code requirements..
CPMC Sections 15.20.040 and 15.20.070 state that no fence be higher that six feet and that
barbed wire or material creating an unreasonable or unnecessary risk of injury be prohibited.
Requests for fence variances shall be made by application ...and shall be reviewed in
accordance with Chapter 1.24 (which involves Planning Commission consideration without a
public hearing).

USF Reddaway Fence Variance
page 2
The subject fence has already started to be constructed around the perimeter of the new freight
forwarding facility on Hamrick Road. The facility will occupy roughly 20 acres of a 34 acre
parcel therefore the fence's northern perimeter boundary will be set back substantially from East
Pine Street. The fence will also be set back from the road frontages on the north-south and east-
west of Hamrick Road. The fence would consist of six foot chain link panels with one foot
barbed wire extensions. If findings could be made for approval, the applicant would be allowed
to continue construction of the current fence with a barbed wire extension. If findings could not
be made the applicants would have to finish construction of the fence without the barbed wire
extension.
Findings of Fact & Conclusions of Law
A variance may be granted if findings are made as follows:
1. The strict application of the provisions would result in unnecessary hardship; or
The applicant states that due to the industrial nature, parcel size and the remote
location of their new facility there will greater security risks to their business. It
~~ can be argued that the strict application of the municipal code in this case could
result in the vandalism and potential l loss of personal property.
2. The following considerations will either result from a granting of the variance or the following
considerations do not apply to the requested application:
a. The variance will provide advantages to the neighborhood or the city,
The additional height of the fence and use of barbed wire is part of Reddaway's
overall security system. Reliable on site security reduces the need for more frequent
City police patrols and makes the storage area and surrounding neighborhood less
attractive to burglars and vandals.
b. The variance will provide beautification to the neighborhood or the city,
The fence will be screened along its Hamrick Road frontages by landscaping and
visibility is reduced to adjacent property owners.

USF Reddaway Fence Variance
Pngc 3
a The variance will provide safety to the neighborhood or the city,
The truck storage area and its corresponding security system create a greater se~rse
of safety for personal property to a new local business. Unnecessary risk of injury
to the general public is reduced because of the fence setbacks and its more remote
location within the City.
d. The variance will provide protection to the neighborhood or the city,
The fence would provide an additional degree of protection to the applicants who
will operate the new facility. The variance will not directly provide protection to the
surrounding neighborhood or to the city.
e. The variance will not have any adverse impacts upon the neighborhood.
The City has not received any correspondence opposed to the security fence at this
time and adjoining properties such as LTM and the ODOT maintenance yard use
similar security fences.
f The variance will utilize property within the intent and purpose of the zone district.
The construction material of the security fence inconsistent with municipal
regulations in the Manufacturing zoning district however the height and material
used is not currently allowed in any zoning district.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission take one of the following actions:
Approve the fence variance application based on the findings of fact contained in the
record and subject to the recommended conditions of approval; or
2. Deny the proposed Variance application; or
3. Continue the review for the Variance application at the discretion of the Commission.

PLANNING DEPARTMENT' MEMORANDUM
DATE: July 6, 1999
TO: Central Point Planning Commission
FROM: Tom Humphrey AICP, Planning Director
SUBJECT: Presentation of the Bear Creek Water Quality Management Plan by DEQ
Representative Brad Prior.
The Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) contacted City staff in June and asked that
they be given an opportunity to present the Bear Creek Water Quality Management Plan to the
Planning Commission. Consequently, they have been added to the business agenda as Item E.
DEQ's Rogue Basin Specialist, Brad Prior will be present to talk about regional water quality
problems, the Clean Water Act and stream monitoring that the Department is doing in the area.
Various components of a Water Quality Management Plan will be discussed including; I) storm
water management; 2) riparian zone preservation and restoration and; 3) erosion control at
construction sites. Central Point has already initiated some of these practices. However the
presentation may allow us to see how we're doing on a regional basis and introduce
Commissioners and staff to model ordinances and management practices followed by other
cities.
No action will be required of the Planning Commission relative to this business item.
