thinks it creates a precedent and as some among the Commissioners mentioned, she <br />would have liked to have one less unit as well. She stated that looking at future <br />applications coming this way, the Commission does not always need to aim at getting <br />the maximum on utilization of the site; it is more a matter of how the amount of units fit <br />in the neighborhood and that specific site. She added that what happens Downtown on <br />a major street like Peters Avenue is very, very different than what happens in this little <br />neighborhood; it is mainly single stories with very tight lots on a narrow street. <br />Commissioner O'Connor stated that he would have liked to have seen more <br />streetscapes as well, but the number of units for this project is below what is allowed on <br />the site. <br />Commissioner Balch stated that four units versus three units does not feel very perfect. <br />He indicated that parking was discussed at the last meeting and asked if any of the <br />Commissioners might feel like trying to refigure it or sending it back, or if they are fine <br />with proceeding the way it is. <br />Chair Allen stated that she should be open to sending it back, but the Commission has <br />already spent so much time on this. She indicated that she would have liked to see <br />three, but given the amount of discussion the Commission has had on this and where it <br />is at this point, she would not like to send it back. <br />Commissioner O'Connor commented that it would have been nice to see the <br />neighborhood present as well. <br />Commissioner Balch moved to approve Case P15 -0290, per Option 1, marked <br />"Received July 13, 2015" and revised plan sheets A201 and A101, marked <br />"Received July 22, 2015, for Case No. P15 -0290, subject to the Conditions of <br />Approval listed in Exhibit A of the staff report. <br />Commissioner Piper seconded the motion. <br />ROLL CALL VOTE: <br />AYES: Commissioners Allen, Balch, and Piper <br />NOES: Commissioners Ritter and O'Connor <br />ABSTAIN: None <br />RECUSED: None <br />ABSENT: None <br />Resolution No. PC- 2015 -29 approving Case P15 -0290 per Option 1 was entered and <br />adopted as motioned. <br />7.
