Department Staff Report. He described the physical constraints of the

Jim Bennett .stated that all the Planning Commission members have a
copy of all the written records or comments received to date except one
additional letter, a copy of which was made available tonight.
Dallas Page, 900 Windemar, Ashland, applicant, came forward and
described the units, the landscaping, fencing, and the recreation and
storage areas. He also stated that they would propose to do something
with the existing City park to the north of the proposed development, in
the 50 x 50 foot area inside that City park; they will have to come up
with a design, curb with swingset or whatever the city needs in that
park. The units will sell for S82 to S85 square foot. He stated that the
Rogue Valley Irrigation District will let them retain the irrigation rights
and they will irrigate the open space using water from Jackson Creek.
They will not remove anything in the creek except two trees that have
fallen into the creek but only with permission from the State. They met
with the Fire Department and the Fire Department is requiring two to
four fire hydrants in this area. They will put in a looped water system.
Lee Brennan stated that in regard to the chain link fence, the city will
need a landscaped buffer along that fence. As a minimum, the city
would like slats to be put in that fence.
Tom Sabins 265 Brandon Street, Central Point, spoke on behalf of most
of the residents of Jackson Creek Estates. He stated that the
commission has received a petition signed by the resldents. They
purchased in the area because of the life style it affords. They have
some strong concerns about the property values of neighboring homes,
the density, the access to the development and the impact on traffic on
Hanley Road and Brandon. They are requesting that the commission
deny this application.

Dallas Page, applicant, came forward with a rebuttal to the opposition
and stated that this is not a regular single family subdivision, it is a PUD.
They are asking only for a zoning change that others in the area have
asked for. They do not have. storage buildings in the back yards. The
chain link fence will be covered by bushes to be planted along the
fence. One-half of the units have side yards.
Chairman Piland asked Mr. Page if they were going to put in a fence
between the subdivision and the park.
Mr. Page stated that it was not planned but if the city wants a fence
they would put it in.
He stated that CC&R's cannot control rentals. The Homeowners
Association will take care of all the open space. The individual owners
will take care of their own yards. If the owners do not take care of their
yards, the CC&R's will come into play.
Chairman Piland declared a five minute break at 9:35 p.m.
Chairman Piland called the meeting to order at 9:45 p.m. and closed the

year flood zone, (2) to see plans for the east side of the project as if it
were a single family subdivision with 12 to 15 units, 13- what is going to
happen to the R.V. Storage on Hanley Road with the additional 10 feet
of right-of-way for the City, 141 the units to be a little further away from
the east property line, 15- the CC&R's to show a strongly worded
stipulation that if property owners don't take care of their property, the
association can take care of it and charge them for it.

PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT
Date of Hearing: June 3, 1997
To: Central Point Planning Commission
From: James H. Bennett, AICP
Planning Director
Subject: Variance and Site Plan Review for a Threeplex and Fourplex (Tax Lot
372W3DD-4700)
Summary
The applicant, Larry Denn, has requested a Variance and Site Plan Review for a new threeplex
and fourplex to be constructed on Glenn Way. The project site of approximately 0.38 acres is
located east of Daisy Creek near the intersection of Glenn Way and West Pine Street. The zoning
designation of the site is R-3, Residential-Multiple Family.
Authority
CPMC 1.24.020 invests the Planning Commission with the authority to render a decision on any
Variance and Site Plan Review application. Notice of the public hearing was effected in
accordance with CPMC 1.24.060.
Applicable Law:
CPMC 17.24.010 et seq.- R-3 Residential Multiple-Family District
CPMC 17.72.010 et seq.- Site Plan, Landscaping and Construction Plan Approval
CPMC 1.7.28.070 et seq.- Special yards and distances between buildings
CPMC 17.80.010 et seq.- Variances
CPMC 17.64.010 et seq.- Off-Street Parking and Loading
Discussion
The Denn project proposes the construction of a 3,648 square foot fourplex and a 3,744 square
foot triplex on a vacant 0.38 acre parcel in the (R-3) Residential Multiple-Family Zoning
District.
CPMC 17.28.070 (C) requires the distance between principal buildings to be at least one-half the
sum of the heights of both buildings; but in no case shall the distance be less than twelve feet.
The applicant is requesting a Variance to reduce the minimum distance from 22 feet to 14 feet.
Findings of Fact & Conclusions of Law:
CPMC 17.80.010 requires that the Planning Commission may grant a Variance if findings are
made that the following considerations will either result from the granting of the Variance or do
not apply to the requested application.
1. The Variance will provide added advantages to the neighborhood or the city such as
beautification or safety;
2. The Variance will not have any significant adverse impacts upon the neighborhood;
3. The Variance will utilize property within the intent and purpose of the zoning district;
4.Circumstances affect the property that generally do not apply to other property in the same
zoning district; and
5. The conditions for which the Variance is requested were not self-imposed through the.
applicant's own actions, not the actions of the applicant's agents, employees or family members.
The applicant has submitted findings of fact for consideration by the Commission.
5
Site Plan Standards:
CPMC 17.72.040 sets out the standards that are to be used as the basis for any decision on a Site
Plan application.
A. Landscaping and fencing must be consistent with the neighborhood and used to screen
activities and uses that may impact existing neighborhood uses.
The applicant has submitted a landscape plan for the project that includes shrubs
and trees.
B. Ingress and egress points must be designed and located to maintain and improve traffic
flows on public streets.
Access to the site will betaken from Glenn Way on a 24 foot wide bridge that
traverses Daisy Creek. The bridge currently serves a fourplex owned by the applicant.
C. Off-street parking and interior circulation must be adequate to serve the site and maintain
good pedestrian and vehicle traffic flows.
CPMC 17.64.040 (2) requires not less than two spaces per unit, at least one of which
shall be a garage or carport plus one guest parking space for each four dwelling units or
fraction thereof. The applicant proposes seven covered spaces and nine parking spaces on
the Site Plan.
D. The site must be designed to be accessible to fire apparatus and have adequate fire
fighting facilities.
E. The project must comply with all applicable city ordinances and regulations and must be
aesthetically acceptable in relation to the neighborhood and the City of Central Point. Staff finds
that the Denn project is in compliance with all city ordinances and regulations.

FINDING FOR THE CITY OF CENTRAL POINT IN REGARD TO A SETBACK ,,
VARIANCE, BETWEEN BUILDINGS, FOR THE PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION OF A
SEVEN PLEX AT 115GLEEN WAY.
1. THE VARIANCE WILL ALLOW US TO CONSTRUCT THE SEVEN PLEX ON THIS
PROPERTY WHICH IS PRESENTLY COVERED WITH BLACK BERRY VINES AND
WEEDS. I BELIEVE THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE SEVEN PLEX WILL DEFINITELY
ADD TO THE BEAUTY OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
2. THE VARIANCE WILL NOT HAVE ADVERSE IMPACT UPON THE
NEIGHBORHOOD BECAUSE THE VARIANCE DOES NOT EFFECT FRONT, SIDE OR
BACK YARD SETBACKS, BUT ONLY THE DISTANCE BETWEEN BUILDINGS
W ITHIN THE CONFINES OF THE PROPERTY.
3. THE PROPERTY IS PRESENTLY ZONED HIGH DENSITY RESIDENTIAL
(MULTI-FAMILY). THE VARIANCE WILL ALLOW US TO USE THE PROPERTY IN
THE WAY THE CITY PLANNERS HAVE DESIGNATED.
4. DAISY CREEK IS LOCATED AT THE FRONT OF THE PROPERTY, REQUIRING US
TO USE A BRIDGE AS OUR INGRESS-EGRESS. THIS UNUSUAL CIRCUMSTANCE
REQUIRED US TO LAY OUT THE PARKING AND POSITIONS OF THE DWELLINGS
IN A MANNER REQUIRING THIS VARIANCE.
5. ALTHOUGH WE HAVE JUST COMPLETED A LOT LINE ADJUSTMENT ON THIS
PROPERTY, THE ADJUSTMENT DID NOT CHANGE THE DIMENSIONS OF THE
LOT.
MY WIFE AND I BELIEVE THE SEVEN PLEX IS LAYED OUT AND LANDSCAPED
IN SUCH A WAY AS TO BE A BEAUTIFUL ADDITION TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
WE PLAN FOR IT TO BE OUR PERSONAL RESIDENCE FOR YEARS TO COME.
THANK YOU, ~C,,

and the right-of-way widths that are reasonably available, the City's PWD has
determined that a 60-foot wide right-of way is required for this portion of Glenn
Way. Since the existing right-of-way width for this segment of Glenn Way is
50-feet, the City will require an additional 5-foot dedication for fight-of-way
along the western boundary of the applicant's property (Tax Lots 6600, 6700,
6800)
3. Applicant shall comply with all existing easement owner requirements regarding
any proposed development that may overlap any existing easement. Any
development proposed which overlaps or alters an existing easement.must be
approved by the easement's owner in writing, and a copy of that written
approval must be submitted to the City's PWD prior to submission of
construction plans for City's PWD review and approval.
4. Private easements shall be located contiguously along the exterior boundaries of
single properties.
5. If applicable, the Applicant shall provide a Statement of Water Rights (on a City
approved forml, for the affected property. For properties determined to have
water rights, the applicant will coordinate with the State Watermaster, the re-
allocation of any waters attached to lands no longer irrigable as a result of the
proposed development.
6. Applicant shall provide the City with a recorded survey plat which shows the

construction of a building. The project site is approximately 0.53 acres and is located near the
intersection of Third and Oak Streets. The zoning designation of the site is C-2, Commercial-
Professional District.
Authority
CPMC 1.24.020 invests the Planning Commission with the authority to render a decision on any
Variance and Site Plan Review application. Notice of the public hearing was effected in
accordance with CPMC 1.24.060 (Exhibit "B").
Applicable Law:
CPMC 17.24.010 et seq.- R-3 Residential Multiple-Family District
CPMC 17.72.010 et seq.- Site Plan, Landscaping and Construction Plan Approval

Discussion
The Hope Christian Church would like to construct a 3730 square foot building adjacent to the
existing church located at 325 Oak Street. The new structure is intended to replace the existing
child care facility located on an adjoining tax lot.
To facilitate the new construction, a Variance to the minimum parking requirement is necessary.
CPMC 17.64 requires a total of 75 off-street parking spaces for the sanctuary and the child care
center.
The Hope Christian Church is able to provide a total of 65 off-street parking spaces .Nine spaces
are located near the alley between Oak and Pine Streets. A neighboring business at 414 East Pine
has provided a written agreement (Exhibit "G") for 15 additional parking spaces that can be used
on Sunday mornings and according to the applicant's representatives, the Wells Fargo Bank has
given verbal approval to the Hope Christian Church for 41 spaces.
Findings of Fact & Conclusions of Law:
CPMC 17.80.010 requires that the Planning Commission may grant a Variance if findings are
made that the following considerations will either result from the granting of the Variance or do
not apply to the requested application.
1. The Variance will provide added advantages to the neighborhood or the city such as
beautification or safety;
2. The Variance will not have any significant adverse impacts upon the neighborhood;
3. The Variance will utilize property within the intent and purpose of the zoning district;
4.Circumstances affect the property that generally do not apply to other property in the same
zoning district; and
5. The conditions for which the Variance is requested were not self-imposed through the
applicant's own actions, not the actions of the applicant's agents, employees or family members.
The applicant has submitted findings of fact for consideration by the Commission (Exhibit "C").
2 "1
Site Plan Standards:
CPMC 17.72.040 sets out the standards that are to be used as the basis for any decision on a Site
Plan application.
A. Landscaping and fencing must be consistent with the neighborhood and used to screen
activities and uses that may impact existing neighborhood uses.
B: Ingress and egress points must be designed and located to maintain and improve traffic
flows on public streets.
C. Off-street parking and interior circulation must be adequate to serve the site and maintain
good pedestrian and vehicle traffic flows.
D. The site must be designed to be accessible to fire apparatus and have adequate fire
fighting facilities.
E. The project must comply with all applicable city ordinances and regulations and must be
aesthetically acceptable in relation to the neighborhood and the City of Central Point. Staff finds
that the Hope Christian Church project is in compliance with all city ordinances and regulations.

Response to "Consideration for Granting Variance"
i. The variance will allow the placement of a structure that will be situated,
landscaped and finished in such a way that it will improve the overall appearance of
the existing property by providing an improved and modernized facility for the
location of our Pre-School (Noah's Ark Early Learning Center) and educational
space for Hope Christian's childrens ministry.
2. The variance will not have any significant adverse impact upon the
neighborhood as there will not be any changes in the amount of traffic control. The
buisness hours of both the Church and Noah's Ark will remain the same. The main
building site of Noah's Ark will be changed from 4th and Oak to 3rd and Oak. This
should, in effect, ease the traffic flow on 4th, as it now has a heavier constant city
flow throughout the day. Current parking demands for both the church and Noah's
will remain the same and be able to be handled in the same way as now.
3. The variance will utilize property already within the intent and purpose of
the zone district since nothing will change except the location of the building site on
the existing property. Once again, there will be no greater parking impact than is
currently being endured by the church and Noah's Ark.
4. As a church we find ourselves with a favorable standard of use for a zoning
district such as ours.
5. The construction for which the variance is requested was not self-imposed
through the applicant's agent, employees or family members. We are applying for
this action at the request of the City of Central Point as part of the placement of our
modular units on our existing property.

RE: Hope Christian Church
Site Plan Review & Variance

This comment comes regarding Hope Christian Church's request
for building and construction at the above location, as well as
variance to the minimum parking space requirement.
I practice law at 44 South 4th Street. My building is
adjacent and abutting the Hope Christian Church.
I have no objection to, and strongly encourage approval of,
Hope Christian Church's requested site plan and variance. As to a
site plan, space in Central Point, is at a premium. The proposed
location of modular buildings will not, in any way detract from the
overall plan of the cities commercial district.
As to the variance for minimum parking, the parking
requirements that Hope Christian Church needs are typically for 15
to 20 minute window periods between the hours of 8:50 and 9 o'clock
a.m. and 2:50 and 3:00 o'clock p.m. Surrounding street parking
spaces seem adequate to accommodate the needs of this facil_:ty and
their intended use.
Again I encourage the planning department and City Council to
approve the request by Hope Christian Church.
You s very truly,
