this project, and if the Commission or the Council so desired, that could be approved because this is a PUD, and as such, it can have different standards. Commissioner Narum stated that she recalls in the Yee property, which is in the western hills, the Commission allowed agricultural buildings. She indicated that it would seem like that would be a good kind of benchmark because it is up in the hills and very visible. She added that she remembers the Commission struggling a bit with that and to allow them outside the building envelope on some of the bigger lots. Commissioner O'Connor noted that the Commission would have some examples between that development and the Vineyard Avenue corridor. He added, however, that there would definitely have to be limits, given the size of these lots, because, otherwise, the property owners could just go out there and start building an unlimited number of structures, and it would end up with something unacceptable. Commissioner Pearce indicated that she did not want to populate these hills with structures. Mr. Dolan stated that it would be hard for him to imagine a scenario where, by the time this is done, there would not be some limitation. He indicated that he also believes that it would vary by lots as they are dramatically different in size and topography. He added that there are portions of some of these larger sites that will not be seen by anybody, and he believes that it would be necessary to drill down to that level of detail to figure out what the appropriate limitations might be. Commissioner Pearce asked Mr. Dolan when he proposed to do that. Mr. Dolan replied that it would be in advance of writing a recommendation, assuming that they get to that point. He added that it could be done sooner rather than later. Commissioner Narum inquired what the setback for agricultural structures would be on the lots that border existing houses, like those on the Grey Eagle subdivision and Kottinger Ranch. Mr. Otto replied that the current guidelines do not have a setback unless it is for housing and animals, which would be 100 feet from another house or 50 feet from the property line. The Commission then proceeded to the Discussion Questions listed in Exhibit B. 1. Site Layout and Location of Structures — Does the Commission have any issues with the general development pattern or location of the structures? Commissioner O'Connor indicated that he already answered that question. PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, March 28, 2012 Page 19 of 33
