ROLL CALL VOTE: AYES: Commissioners Allen, Balch, Brown, O'Connor and Pace NOES: None ABSENT: Commissioner Ritter ABSTAIN: None Resolution PC-2019-21 recommending approval of Cases PUD-134/P18-0332/P18-0334 was adopted with added conditions as motioned. MATTERS INITIATED BY COMMISSION MEMBERS Chair Allen referred to the project approved on Old Stanley Boulevard, which caused her to look at the north side of Stanley Boulevard and realize that many buildings on the north side have side-facing designs. Over time, they may be torn down and this is conflict with the concept of trying to create a welcoming presence and front-facing street front, which is a downtown design standard. She thinks the earlier project approved was a nice compromise with the wrap-around porch, good articulation on the street side and that it had a side view almost like a street front, which she was in favor of; however, she felt some other recent homes had not been as well-constructed and she asked staff to be more rigorous with applicants such that the street-side has a more front-facing presence. She mentioned there will be older properties that will be renovated, and she thinks they should adhere to this. Ms. Clark noted that the design review process should allow for review for consistency with the guideline requiring street-facing frontages. Ms. Harryman asked that if a discussion is to ensue, this topic should be agendized to give the public a chance to be noticed of the topic and have a chance to comment. Mr. Dolan stated that if the Commission follows the existing principles, the requirement exists, and that any examples not followed through may have been the result of failures during plan check.
