within the HVSP to have animals, but it could also be conditioned such that those <br />views are mitigated through fencing, vegetation, or something else. <br />Commissioner Olson said he could support five lots if it absolutely needs to have <br />open space. He expressed concern about how big the home would be on a <br />two-care lot and the kind of energy footprint that home would have. <br />Commissioner O’Connor stated that it is within the Commission’s purview to <br />condition the project to address those concerns. <br />Chair Pearce agreed with the comments of the Commissioners but voiced her <br />concern that the semi-rural feel of Happy Valley is achieved with this property. She <br />stated that she cannot recommend approval for the project with incomplete visuals <br />or without understanding the range of options. She indicated that she is not <br />opposed to amending a specific plan if she is confident she has all of the information <br />she needs to achieve the semi-rural character. She added as a side note that she is <br />opposed to the concept that you need to alter the entire neighborhood to appease <br />the golf course, as the neighborhood was in place before the golf course was, and <br />she is not inclined to change the HVSP for the golf course. <br />Chair Pearce asked staff and the applicant if they had enough direction to proceed. <br />Mr. Dolan noted that most of the comments have concentrated on visuals and what <br />the plan will look like and that staff will focus on this. <br />Chair Pearce stated that the item is being continued to a future meeting. <br />The Planning Commission took a break at 8:30 p.m. and reconvened the regular <br />meeting at 8:41 p.m. <br />b. PCUP-238, William Webster and Sandi Bohner (Little Valley Winery) <br />Application for a Conditional Use Permit to operate a wine-tasting room, <br />retail store, and outdoor seating area at 739 Main Street, Suite J. Zoning <br />for the property is Central Commercial (C-C), Downtown Revitalization, <br />Core Area Overlay District. <br />Rosalind Rondash presented that staff report and gave a brief description of the <br />scope and key components of the application. <br />Commissioner Narum referred to the diagram of the floor plan and said she was <br />surprised not to see anything related to a kitchen other than a dishwasher. She <br />inquired if that was due to the level of detail of the plan. <br />Ms. Rondash replied that the winery is not preparing food on site and that only <br />pre-prepared food will be offered during the sampling. She added that there is also <br />no refrigerator on-site. <br />PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, April 15, 2009 Page 16 of 24 <br /> <br />
