COMMISSIONER AND STAFF COMMENTS
Julie Ann Woods, Staff, stated that an action needed to be taken on conflicts of
interest. She explained that before any public hearing began, the boards and
commissions would be polled as to any conflict of interest or perception relating to
this case. Marcella Larson asked what was a perception of a conflict. David
Hoefer, Staff Attorney, answered that there may not be an actual conflict of interest
but someone in the public may think that you do. An example would be that your
son or daughter was involved with the project or something of that nature. Larson
asked objective or subjective. Hoefer said very subjective. He noted they did not
anticipate anyone having a conflict. Sara Garton stated since there was no
disclosure; the commission would proceed.
PUBLIC HEARING:
ALPINE COTTAGES GMQS EXEMPTION REQUEST
Sara Garton, chair, stated the meeting was for the purpose of granting a GMQS
exemption to the Alpine Cottages. David Hoefer, Assistant City Attorney, stated the
affidavit of notice had been provided and met the jurisdictional requirements. The
commission proceeded in the review.
Garton introduced the applicant, Larry Saliterman, and representative, Tim Semrau.
Julie Ann Woods, Staff, explained that the applicants were requesting approval for
10 deed restricted affordable housing units and 4 AH free-market units. They were
seeking a recommendation to go on to City Council and the Board of County
Commissioners indicating this would be the approved method of providing
affordable housing for this Alpine Cottages project. Woods stated the site was
located at 1240 East Cooper and Lot 3 of the Ferguson Exemption. The property
currently contains the Alpine Lodge.
