be reasonable to make it a condition of construction that if, somehow, the construction did damage to this private road, the applicant would be responsible for the repair of the road to protect the road ownership interest of the other three property owners. Chair Allen inquired if that is something that could be added as a condition. Ms. Wallis stated that it was brought up by the Engineering Division to ask for some type of initial baseline measure to determine where it is now and added that it is something the Commission could discuss including. Chair Allen inquired if the applicant would pay for the baseline measure. Ms. Harryman replied that she is not certain the City could do that. She stated that if the Commission were inclined to include something like that, her preference would be to say "If it is determined if that could be done." She indicated that she would like to have more time to consider this because she did not think the City can do that because it is a private road, and their construction vehicles could knock down ten trees on the way in. She stated that she thinks the City could probably condition it to say that construction parking must stay on the property and not be parked on the private road, but the condition of the road is a private matter that the City cannot condition. Commissioner O'Connor added that it can also get sticky as the damage could have been due to when somebody else's pool or home was constructed. He noted that when he was looking at the property, it looked to him like there was a lot of water damage on the road in front of the other three homes, and he was not sure they maintained this road 25 percent regardless of whose water did the damage. He asked staff if there is a condition about construction traffic staying out there, or if there is no parking sign posted on that road even though it is private. Ms. Wallis replied that there is none posted to her knowledge and that she is not sure how that would be possible since it is a private street. Mr. Weinstein stated that there is a sign on Amber Lane that prohibits parking and that he believes that is intended to extend all the way up. Commissioner Piper asked Commissioner O'Connor if his intention is that vehicles be parked on this hammerhead which is part of the private road. Commissioner O'Connor said no; there is ample parking on the property on the 20 -foot setback around the building, plus the owner's driveway. Chair Allen asked staff if that condition is currently included as it sounds like all the Commissioners appear to think that it makes sense. Ms. Wallis said no. Commissioner O'Connor commented that if that is the biggest concern, he is sure it would be amenable to the owners. PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, March 25, 2015 Page 23 of 27
