BACKGROUND: The applicant proposes to construct a deck on the second floor of an existing
duplex at 1022 E. Hyman Avenue. The construction of the deck is subject to Stream Margin
Review because proposed construction is located within 100 feet of the high water line of the
Roaring Fork River.
When building within a certain distance of the Roaring Fork River or its tributaries heightened
review of the proposal is required. Inclusive of the review is the requirement that a structure be a
minimum distance from the `top of slope'. Some of the items that are critically analyzed include
increases to the base flood elevation, damage to vegetation, potential water pollution, location of
structures in relation to the stream margin setback and lighting.
~ Land Use Code Section 26.104.100 Definitions "Top of Slope -Aline generally running parallel to a stream or
river from which the development must be setback and which delineates the bank of the river or stream or other
riparian areas as determined by the City Engineer."
Revised 10/16/2008
Page 2 of 9
P3
The proposed deck encroaches into the 15 feet setback measured from the top of the slope. New
development is not permitted in this area. The applicant is permitted to apply for a variance from
the review standards under Special Review or an exemption to the Stream Margin Review under
certain conditions; however this application does not qualify for Special Review or an
exemption.
LAND USE REQUEST AND REVIEW PROCEDURES: The applicant is requesting the
following land use approval from the Planning and Zoning Commission to construct a deck on
the second floor of the existing duplex:
• Stream Margin Review as pursuant to Section 26.435.040 of the Land Use Code. The
applicant is requesting approval to construct a deck on the second floor of an existing
duplex. The Stream Margin Review shall be considered at a public hearing before the
Planning and Zoning Commission who may approve, approve with conditions or deny the
proposal.
STAFF COMMENTS
Variances from the Stream Margin Review Standards
The applicant is proposing to construct the deck at the second floor level in the area prohibited by
Stream Margin Review. A significant portion of the duplex already encroaches on this area,
including the existing deck on the third floor. See Figure 2 below:
P

Figure 2: Encroachments into the Stream Margin setback area.
Revised 10/16/2008
Page 3 of 9
P4
Figure 2 shows the existing deck on the third floor and the proposed deck on the second floor.
The line shown on Figure 2 on a 45 degree plane shows the height requirement as defined by
Stream Margin Review in the Land Use Code, Section 26.435.040 (C) (9):
"All development outside the fifteen feet setback from the top of slope does
not exceed a height delineated by a line drawn at a forty-five degree angle from
ground level at the top of the slope."
The defined setback area for Stream Margin Review is two-fold. The first part of Section
26.435.040 (C) (9) states that development must be located at least 15 feet back from the `top of
slope'. The entire proposed deck is located within the setback area on a horizontal plane. The
second part of this section restricts development on a progressive height plane. Development is
not permitted in the area that is delineated from the `top of slope' up on a progressive line that is
drawn at a 45 degree angle. The proposed deck is also located in the progressive angle plane
measured vertically.
The applicant is permitted to apply for a variance from the Stream Margin Review Standards. In
this case, the proposed project does meet the review criteria to apply for a variance. To qualify
for a variance an applicant can request a Special Review by the Planning and Zoning
Commission. The Commission considers whether the application may be approved or denied
based on conformance with two different review criteria. The first criterion for Special Review
does not apply because a conflict with the location of the `top of slope' does not exist. The
applicant provided a survey of the location of the proposed development, the `top of slope' and
the high water marks. The proposed development is clearly noted in the area prohibited by
Stream Margin Review.
The second criterion refers to the proposal meeting Stream Margin Review Standards that the
Director of Community Development has based findings of denial. The applicant and the
Director do not have any differing opinions on any of the standards.
Non-conforming Structures
The existing portions of the duplex that are located in the setback area are considered a legally
established non-conforming structure. In Chapter 26.312 of the Land Use Code there are
restrictions on increasing or expanding non-conforming structures. Section 26.312.030 (C) (1)
Nonconformities states that:
"A non-conforming structure shall not be extended by an enlargement or
expansion that increases the non-conformity. Anon-conforming structure
may be extended or altered in a manner that does not change or that decreases
the non-conformity."
The applicant is not able to increase the deck area because the proposed construction is located
within the Stream Margin Review setback area and the duplex is currently considered a non-
Revised 10/16/2008
Page 4 of 9
P5
conforming structure. Anon-conforming structure may not be altered so that the non-conformity
is increased.
DEVELOPMENT REVIEW COMMITTEE:
The Parks Department and the Engineering Department have concerns regarding the potential
increase of impervious area on this property and how the construction impacts would be
mitigated to ensure that there are no negative impacts on the Roaring Fork River. The applicant
did not provide a drainage plan with the application. As a result the City Engineer was unable to
analyze the project for negative impacts to the Roaring Fork River.
RECOMMENllATION: Community Development Staff recommend that the Planning and
Zoning Commission deny the Stream Margin Review request to construct a deck on the second
floor of the existing duplex. The request does not comply with the setback requirement.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Community Development Staff recommend that the Planning
and Zoning Commission deny the variance application. If the Planning and Zoning Commission
decides to deny the application they can use the following motion:
"I move to deny the application for Stream Margin Review located at 1022 E. Hyman Avenue."
If the Planning and Zoning Commission decides to improve the application, they may use the
following resolution:
"I move to approve Resolution No.33, Series of 2008, to approve the Stream Margin Review
application for 1022 E. Hyman."

Exhibit A
DEVELOPMENT IN ENVIRONMENTALLY SENSITIVE AREAS (ESA) 26.435
STREAM MARGIN REVIEW STANDARDS
REVIEW CRITERIA AND STAFF FINDINGS
As pursuant to Section 26.435.040 (C) Stream Margin Review Standards of the City Land Use
Code, an applicant that proposes any development within 100 feet, measured horizontally, from
the high water line of the Roaring Fork River, must apply for review. A development proposal
subject to Stream Margin Review may be approved, approved with conditions, or denied by the
Planning and Zoning Commission based on conformance with the following criteria:
A. Standards of Review.
1. It can be demonstrated that any proposed development which is in the Special Flood
Hazard Area will not increase the base flood elevation on the parcel proposed for
development. This shall be demonstrated by an engineering study prepared by a
professional engineer registered to practice in the State which shows that the base flood
elevation will not be raised, including, but not limited to, proposing mitigation
techniques on or off-site which compensate for any base flood elevation increase caused
by the development;
Staff Finding
The proposed deck is located in a Special Flood Hazard Area. The Special Flood Hazard
Area is defined by the "Roaring Fork River Cross Sections /Stream Margin Review Line "
maps located at City Hall in the Community Development Department. The base flood
elevation ~~ill not be affected. Staff finds this criterion to be met.
Revised 10/16/2008
Page 6 of 9
Subject property as it relates to the Stream Margin Review Area.
P11
2. The recommendations of the Aspen Area Community Plan: Parks/Recreation/Open
Space/Trails Plan and the Roaring Fork River Greenway Plan are implemented in the
proposed plan for development, to the greatest extent practicable. Areas of historic
public use or access shall be dedicated via a recorded easement for public use. A
fisherman's easement granting public fishing access within the high water boundaries
of the river course shall be granted via a recorded "Fisherman's Easement;"
Staff Finding
The property already has a Fisherman's Easement. Staff finds this criterion to be met.
3. There is no vegetation removed or damaged or slope grade changes (cut or fill) made
outside of a specifically defined building envelope. A building envelope shall be designated by
this review and said envelope shall be designated by this review and said envelope shall be
recorded on a plat pursuant to Subsection 26.435.040.F.1;
Staff Finding
There will be no construction located on the vegetation. The proposed deck will be a
cantilever design. There will be an increase in impervious surface area as a result of the
deck. The applicant will be required to show how the extra runoff will be contained on site.
Staff does not f nd this criterion to be met without a drainage plan.
4. The proposed development does not pollute or interfere with the natural changes of the
river, stream or other tributary, including erosion and/or sedimentation during construction.
Increased on-site drainage shall be accommodated within the parcel to prevent entry into the
river or onto its banks. Pools or hot tubs cannot be drained outside of the designated building
envelope; r
Staff Finding
The applicant will be required to provide a construction management plan that demonstrates
that the requirements can be met and it must be approved by the Engineering Department.
The applicant will also be required to show that the dry well on the property can
accommodate the increased flows to the satisfaction of the City Engineer. Similar to the
previous response, there will be an increase in impervious surface area as a result of the
deck. The applicant will be required to show how the extra runoff will be contained on site.
The Engineering Department stated that they are unable to determine if the project does not
have an adverse environmental impact. A comprehensive drainage plan will need to be
submitted which shows an 80% total suspended solids reduction of the site. All of these
requirements must be met at the time of building permit submittal. Staff does not find this
criterion to be met.
5. Written notice is given to the Colorado Water Conservation Board prior to any alteration or
relocation of a water course and a copy of said notice is submitted to the Federal Emergency
Management Agency;
Staff Finding
The water course will not be altered or relocated. Staff f nds this criterion to be met.
Revised 10/16/2008
Page 7 of 9
P12
6. A guarantee is provided in the event a water course is altered or relocated, that applies to
the developer and his heirs, successors and assigns that ensures that the flood carrying capacity
on the parcel is not diminished;
Staff Finding
This does not apply. The water course will not be altered or relocated. Staff finds this
criterion to be met.
7. Copies are provided of all necessary federal and state permits relating to work within the
100-year flood plain;
Slaf Finding
No permits have been submitted. Staff does not find this criterion to be met.
8. There is no development other than approved native vegetation planting taking place below
the top of slope or within fifteen (15) feet of the top of slope or the high waterline, whichever is
most restrictive. This is an effort to protect the existing riparian vegetation and bank stability.
New plantings (including trees, shrubs, flowers and grasses) outside of the designated building
envelope on the river side shall be native riparian vegetation as approved by the City. A
landscape plan will be submitted with all development applications. The top of slope and 100-
year flood plain elevation of the Roaring Fork River shall be determined by the Stream Margin
Map located in the Community Development Department and filed at the City Engineering
Department;
Staff Finding
No landscaping is proposed in this application. The cantilevered deck will have no impact
on the vegetation in the riparian area. Staff finds this criterion to be met.
9. All development outside the fifteen (15) foot setback from the top of slope does not exceed a
height delineated by a line drawn at a forty-five (45) degree angle from ground level at the top
of slope. Height shall be measured and determined by the Community Development Director
using the definition for height set forth at Section 26.04.100 and method of calculating height
set forth at Section 26.575.020 as shown in Figure "A";
Staff Finding
The proposed deck does not meet this requirement. The deck is located within the setback
area, measured from the top of slope. Staff does not find this criterion to be met.
10. A11 exterior lighting is low and downcast with no light(s) directed toward the river or
located down the slope and shall be in compliance with Section 26.575.150. A lighting plan will
be submitted with all development applications;
Staff Finding
There is no lighting proposed with this project. Staff finds this criterion to be met.
11. There has been accurate identification of wetlands and riparian zones.
Staff Finding
The applicant has provided a certified survey of the site. Staff has no reason to believe that
the architectural drawings or the survey is inaccurate. Staff finds this criterion to be met.

STREAM MARGIN REVIEW SECTION 26.435.040 (E)
SPECIAL REVIEW
An applicant can request a variance from the Stream Margin Review Standards. A variance is
processed as a Special Review and the Planning and Zoning Commission has the authority to
determine whether the application may be approved, approved with conditions, or denied based
on conformance with the following review criteria:
1. An authorized survey from a Colorado Professionally Licensed Surveyor shows a
different determination in regards to the top of slope and 100-year flood plain than
the Stream Margin Map located in the Community Development Department and
filed in the City Engineering Department;
Staf Finding
There are no conflicts in regard to the location of the `top of bank' on this property. The
survey provided by the applicant shows the proposed deck to be nonconforming. Staff does
not.find this criterion to be met.
2. The proposed development meets the Stream Margin Review Standard(s) upon
which the Community Director had based the finding of denial;
Staf Finding
The proposed deck does not meet some of the standards for Stream Margin Review.
Development in the Stream Margin Review area must meet all the standards. Each of the
Stream Margin Review Standards are discussed above. Staff does not find this criterion to be
met.

Sec g ~ rT
A. Applicability. The provisions of the stream margin review shall apply to all
development within one hundred (100) feet, measured horizontally, from the high water
line of the Roaring Fork River and its tributary streams and to all development within the
Flood Hazard Area, also known as the 100-year flood plain.
B. Exemptions. The Community Development Director may exempt the following types
of development within the stream margin review area:
1. Construction of pedestrian or automobile bridges, public trails or structures for
irrigation, drainage, flood control or water diversion, bank stabilization, provided plans
and specifications are submitted to the City engineer demonstrating that the structure is
engineered to prevent blockage of drainage channels during peak flows and the
Community Development Director determines the proposed structure complies, to the
extent practical, with the stream margin review standards.
Not Applicable, because there wilt be no construction of pedestrian or automobile
bridges, trails or, public trails or structures for irrigation, drainage, flood control
or water diversion, or bank stabilization.
2. Construction of improvements essential for public health and safety which cannot be
reasonably accommodated outside of the "no development area" prescribed by this
Section including, but not limited to, potable water systems, sanitary sewer, utilities and
fire suppression systems provided the Community Development Director determines the
development complies, to the extent practical, with the stream margin review standards.
Not Applicable, because the building will not be in the no development area.
3. The expansion, remodeling or reconstruction of an existing development provided the
following standards are met:
The development does not add more than ten percent (10%) to the floor area of the
existing structure or increase the amount of building area exempt from floor area
calculations by more than twenty-five percent (25%). All stream margin exemptions are
cumulative. Once a development reaches these totals, a stream margin review by the
Planning and Zoning Commission is required; and
The construction will not be adding any FAR, only to deck area, which will be under
the 15% allowable.
The development does not require the removal of any tree for which a permit would be
required pursuant to Chapter 13.20 of this Code.
There will be no trees removed since only decks will be added, and they will be
cantilevered.
a. The development is located such that no portion of the expansion, remodeling or
reconstruction will be any closer to the high water line than is the existing development;
Will comply, since existing structure is already non-conforming, and will not be
increasing its footprint. Only two decks will be added, and they will be cantilevered
to expand only the same distance as the existing decks above.
b. The development does not fall outside of an approved building envelope if one has
been designated through a prior review; and
Will comply, since the building does not fall outside of an approved building
envelope.
c. The expansion, remodeling or reconstruction will cause no increase to the amount of
ground coverage of structures within the 100-year flood plan.
Will comply, since there will be no increase to the amount of ground coverage or
FAR.
C. Stream margin review standards. No development shall be permitted within the stream
margin of the Roaring Fork River unless the Community Development Director makes a
determination that the proposed development complies with all requirements set forth
below:
1. It can be demonstrated that any proposed development which is in the Special Flood
Hazard Area will not increase the base flood elevation on the parcel proposed for
development. This shall be demonstrated by an engineering study prepared by a
professional engineer registered to practice in the State which shows that the base flood
elevation will not be raised, including, but not limited to, proposing mitigation techniques
on or off-site which compensate for any base flood elevation increase caused by the
development; and
Will comply, since there will be no increase of base flood elevation on the parcel
proposed for development.
2. The recommendations of the Aspen Area Community Plan: Parks/Recreation/Open
Space/Trails Plan and the Roaring Fork River Greenway Plan are implemented in the
proposed plan for development, to the greatest extent practicable. Areas of historic public
use or access shall be dedicated via a recorded easement for public use. A fisherman's
easement granting public fishing access within the high water boundaries of the river
course shall be granted via a recorded "Fisherman's Easement;" and
Access will be granted to fishermen in the waterway, but not on property.
3. There is no vegetation removed or damaged or slope grade changes (cut or fill) made
outside of a specifically defined building envelope. A building envelope shall be
designated by this review and said envelope shall be designated by this review and said
envelope shall be recorded on a plat pursuant to Subsection 26.435.040.F.1; and
Will comply since the two new decks will be cantilevered, and it will not impact or
touch the riparian zone. The existing decks one floor above already expand over the
same area.
4. The proposed development does not pollute or interfere with the natural changes of the
river, stream or other tributary, including erosion and/or sedimentation during
construction. Increased on-site drainage shall be accommodated within the parcel to
prevent entry into the river or onto its banks. Pools or hot tubs cannot be drained outside
of the designated building envelope; and
Not Applicable, because no hot tub or pool is being added to the property.
5. Written notice is given to the Colorado Water Conservation Board prior to any
alteration or relocation of a water course and a copy of said notice is submitted to the
Federal Emergency Management Agency; and
Not applicable, because we are not changing the water course.
6. A guarantee is provided in the event a water course is altered or relocated, that applies
to the developer and his heirs, successors and assigns that ensures that the flood carrying
capacity on the parcel is not diminished; and
Not applicable, because we are not changing the water course.
7. Copies are provided of all necessary federal and state permits relating to work within
the 100-year flood plain; and
Survey is provided with information of where top of bank is located, approximate
high water line, and edge of creek.
S. There is no development other than approved native vegetation planting taking place
below the top of slope or within fifteen (15) feet of the top of slope or the high waterline,
whichever is most restrictive. This is an effort to protect the existing riparian vegetation
and bank stability. New plantings (including trees, shrubs, flowers and grasses) outside of
the designated building envelope on the river side shall be native riparian vegetation as
approved by the City. A landscape plan will be submitted with all development
applications. The top of slope and 100-year flood plain elevation of the Roaring
Fork River shall be determined by the Stream Margin Map located in the Community
Development Department and filed at the City Engineering Department; and
The decks will be cantilevered, and existing riparian vegetation will not be
disturbed.
9. All development outside the fifteen (15) foot setback from the top of slope does not
exceed a height delineated by a line drawn at a forty-five (45) degree angle from ground
level at the top of slope. Height shall be measured and determined by the Community
Development Director using the definition for height set forth at Section 26.04.100 and
method of calculating height set forth at Section 26.575.020 as shown in Figure "A"; and
Existing house location is non-conforming, and construction not be increasing its
existing footprint. Two new decks will be added below existing decks, expanding
only the existing area, and will be cantilevered.
10. All exterior lighting is low and downcast with no light(s) directed toward the river or
located down the slope and shall be in compliance with Section 26.575.150. A lighting
plan will be submitted with all development applications; and
Will comply, since no exterior lighting will directed towards the river or located
down he slope.
11. There has been accurate identification of wetlands and riparian zones
Survey is provided with information of where top of bank is located, approximate
high water line, and edge of creek. There will be no development past the top of
bank, and will not be disturbing the wetlands or riparian zones or adding anything
new.
D. Appeal of Director's determination. An appeal of a determination in regards to a
stream margin application or in regards to the top of slope determination made by the
Community Development Director, shall be reviewed as a special review pursuant to
Section E, below. In this case, the Community Development
Director's finding shall be forwarded as a recommendation and a new application need
not be filed.
E. Special review. An application requesting a variance from the stream margin review
standards or an appeal of the Stream Margin Map's top of slope determination, shall be
processed as a special review in accordance with common development review procedure
set forth in Chapter 26.304. The special review shall be considered at a public hearing for
which notice has been published, posted and mailed, pursuant to Subsection
26.304.060.E.3 Paragraphs a, b and c. Review is by the Planning and Zoning
Commission.
A special review from the stream margui review determination may be approved,
approved with conditions or denied based on conformance with the following review
criteria:
1. An authorized survey from a Colorado professionally licensed surveyor shows a
different determination in regards to the top of slope and 100-year flood plain than the
Stream Margin Map located in the Community Development Department and filed in the
City Engineering Department; and
Will comply, survey is provided with information of where top of bank is located,
approximate high water line, and edge of creek.
2. The proposed development meets the stream margin review standard(s) upon which
the Community Development Director had based the finding of denial.
F. Building permit submittal requirements. Prior to receiving a building permit for a
property within the stream margin review area, the following must be submitted:
1. The applicant shall record a site improvement plat with topography prepared by a
Colorado licensed professional surveyor showing the building envelope determined by
the Community Development Director based on the Stream Margin Review Map located
in the Community Development Department.
Will comply, a site plan and survey is provided with information of where top of
bank is located, approximate high water line, and edge of creek.
2. Site sections drawn by a registered architect, landscape architect or engineer shall be
submitted showing all existing and proposed site elements, the top of slope and pertinent
elevations above sea level.
Will comply, survey is provided with information of where top of bank is located,
approximate high water line, and edge of creek. More information is also on
elevations and floor plans.
3. The building envelope shall be barricaded prior to issuance of any demolition,
excavation or building permits. The barricades shall remain in place until the issuance of
certificates of occupancy. (Ord. No. 45-2001, § 3; Ord. No. 52-2003, § 13)
We «~ill comply with this issue.

Re: McCormick Residence
1022 East Hyman
Aspen, Colorado
This Memo is in followup to our prior discussions regarding the ability to construct
deck structures on the east side of the above referenced project. It is my understanding
that main level decks are planned to be placed on this river side of the existing building.
With the use of cantilever steel primary members, and concrete piers placed tight to the
existing foundation line, we can easily avoid any need for disruption of grade away
from the building perimeter. We can approach this structure as a clean framing system
with no construction impact to the river bank.
Please call with any questions.

Parks Department Comments
1. In addition to a orange mesh "construction fence" applicant will erect a solid
plastic fence to assure that no materials will go in the river. All construction will
stay within this fenced area. The area within the fence will be protected by
plywood sheets. The fences will be attached by cord around the trees so as to
not harm them.
2. No trees will be removed.
3. Any plywood that is at the base of the trees will be cut out to provide for
adequate moisture at drip lines. There will be no materials or work done within
that area.The orange mesh fence will run outside the drip line
4. There will be no excavation.

RE: RIVER HOUSE CONDOMINIUMS DECK CONSTRUCTION
Dear John;
This letter is in regards to our conversation concerning your desire to add a new deck to
the River House Condominiums, 1022 E. Hyman Avenue, Aspen, Colorado. I have
found, based on City of Aspen Engineering Department regulations, that storm water
mitigation on the subject project will not be necessary since you will be adding less than
200 square feet of hardened surfaces to the project.
Due to the proposed deck location being directly above an existing patio, which is
already considered anon-permeable surface for the purpose of calculating storm water
runoff quantities, the proposed deck will only add approximately eighty-three (83) square
feet ofnon-permeable surface to the existing site.
The net, (non-permeable) surface area added to the site, at a minimum, can be obtained
by the following:
1. Proposed Deck Size = 269 sf
2. Existing Patio Size = 189 sf
3. "Net added non-permeable surface" _ (Deck Size) - (Patio Size)
= 269 sf - 186 sf = 83 sf
Since the additional hardened surface area will be less than 200 square feet, the City of
Aspen Engineering Department will not require a storm water mitigation plan.
Concern for surface water runoff impacts on the adjacent Roaring Fork River can be
mitigated in part by your proposal to include a plastic barrier and plywood on the grass
under the proposed construction. In addition, erosion control logs, if added along the top
of bank to would further eliminate sediment transfer concerns on the adjacent receiving
water.

MEETING DATE: October 21, 2008
DATE OF MEMO October 16, 2008

Public Hearin
LAND USE REQUESTS AND REVIEW PROCEDURES:
The City is requesting the following from the Planning and Zoning Commission:
• Determination if application for ZG Master Plan meets the recommendations of
the Civic Master Plan.
• Recommend~proval of ZG Master Plan to City Council.
The Master Plan process itself, pursuant to Section 26.104.030, does not include criteria
by which to evaluate a master plan proposal. In the case of the ZG Master Plan, it is
required to be consistent with the findings and recommendations of the Civic Master
Plan, according to Ordinance No. 46, Series of 2006. The Planning and Zoning
Commission was informed of this requirement during a July 18 meeting, and was
provided with copies of the Civic Master Plan to consult as the ZG Master Plan was
presented. In addition, the ZG Master Plan itself includes dozens of references to the
findings and recommendations of the Civic Master Plan. The Planning and Zoning
Commission may find that the ZG Master Plan is consistent with the Civic Master Plan
without explicitly addressing each of 51 findings and 44 recommendations of the Civic
Master Plan.
PROJECT SUMMARY:
At its meetings on September 2 and October 14, the Planning and Zoning
Commission reviewed the entirety of ZG Master Plan, including:
/ Part I: Physical Design
/ Part II: Mixed Uses =Memorable Places
P2
/ Part III: Open Space Analysis
/ Part IV: Phasing and Mitigation
/ p~ V: Square Footage Tables
/ Part VI: Consultants and Costs
/ Part VII: Components of the Plan
Staff and representatives of the ZG Partnership made presentations and public comment
was taken both on September 2 and October 14. However, the Planning and Zoning
Commission held a board discussion only on September 2. On October 14, staff
presentation and public comment took three hours, and the commission adjourned at 7:30
pm. before holding a board discussion.
On October 21, staff plans to limit its remarks to a brief overview of the traffic
implications of switching the use of the Zupancis parcel to a mix of commercial and
affordable housing, with Pitkin County operations largely relocated to the AABC area.
Staff is providing back-up information from the traffic study as requested, attached to this
memo as Exhibit A.
Although a public hearing is continued from one date to another, the process and order of
the public hearing is continuous. Staff is suggesting that public comment has been
extensive on September 2 and October 14, and that public comment be limited to the
topic of traffic implication re: the use of the Zupancis parcel on October 21. This will
help allow the Planning and Zoning Commission to have its discussion, which it could
not find time to do on October 14.
SITE VISIT ON OCTOBER 21:
This is a reminder that we have a site visit scheduled from noon - 1 pm on Tuesday
the 21st, starting at Sister Cities.
STAFF COMMENT:
The P&Z may make changes to the ZG Master Plan prior to making a recommendation to
City Council. Staff has prepared a resolution that can be approved even if P&Z makes
changes to the ZG Master Plan on October 21.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the Planning and Zoning Commission recommend approval of the ZG
Master Plan, as currently proposed, to the City Council.
