In 1995 conceptual approval was granted with comments from the neighbo~ ~ood

the plans making the facility more pleasing to the eye.

Schickling answered the area was zoned Park with a PUD overlay with a trks
support facilities. She said the temporary nature was for relocation ofthi: site
originally, but during 1985 there was agreement that this was the approp] ate site.

GROWTHMANAGEMENT COMMISSION JULY 15, 1997
Guthrie asked why the employee mitigation was needed and why banked units
were not allowed in the City. He noted that Water Place Housing was a
developers choice project and questioned if units could be mitigated there.
Schickling commented that ifa Parks, Golf or City employee did not utilize the
unit, then it would be opened up for the lottery. Bendon stated the way employee
mitigation was set up may not always be appropriate on net leaseable space for
Growth Management.
MOTION: Roger Hunt moved to recommend City Council exempt
from the scoring and competition procedures the essential public
facilities and the affordable housing unit proposed at the Parks
Department offices, 585 Cemetery Lane, and recommend that City
Council approve this method of providing affordable housing with the
formula in the conditions listed in the Staff Memo dated July 15, 1997.
Tim Mooney second. APPROVED 8-2. (Guthrie and Tarver against.)
Guthrie commented that this was an exceptionally poor place to expand this
facility since there were other places at the Golf Course more appropriate. This is
the entrance to Aspen and should have employee housing on that spot. Hunt did
not feel that the Entrance to Aspen was an issue.
GMC Meeting adjourned at 6:58 p.m. and City P&Z resumed.
