CONSIDERATIONS FOR THE WORK SESSION The following section provides potential discussion topics and analysis of key items related to the project. This work session will allow the Planning Commission to provide direction to the applicant and staff regarding any items it wishes to be addressed before the project application is formally presented to the Planning Commission. Discussion Points 1. Land Use: General Plan and Zoning As stated previously, the project area of the site has a General Plan land use designation of Rural Density Residential and zoning of PUD-RDR. Within this designation and zoning district a church is a conditionally permitted use. Based on the zoning, and on the surrounding uses and location, a church on the subject site would appear to be appropriate and consistent with the General Plan if all Conditional Use Permit findings can be made. However, staff is requesting the Planning Commission provide input on changing the subject site from a residential development to a church and whether the Commission beloved that the proposed project is compatible with the surrounding area and uses. Discussion Point #1 1. Is the site appropriate for a church development? 2. Site Plan The proposed subdivision is located just south of Dublin Creek. The location of the adjacent creek and creek setback has been used to determine a suitable area for the development, with all buildings, structures and paved areas placed outside of the 20 -foot creek setback established in the prior approval. The Traffic Division, Engineering Department, and Fire Department have reviewed the proposed site access including turning radius within the site and have found it acceptable. The main entry is centrally located and at a similar location as the originally approved entry that allows for ingress/egress to the project from Dublin Canyon Road, which has a speed limit of 45 miles per hour. The secondary driveway access is located on the far west side of the site buffered by a 15 -foot landscape strip directly adjacent to an existing single-family home. This driveway is to allow better access and circulation for deliveries, garbage, as well as to accommodate emergency vehicles. Staff has stated concerns with locating the proposed trash enclosure and delivery area directly adjacent to the single-family home to the west and viewable from Dublin Canyon Road and has requested the applicant relocate the proposed enclosure to the rear or east side of the building and not viewable from the street. Staff would like Planning Commission's comments regarding the proposed site plan, circulation design and trash enclosure/delivery area design. Discussion Point #2 2. Are the overall site plan, circulation design, and trash enclosure/delivery area layout acceptable? PUD -114-01M, 11300 Dublin Canyon Road Planning Commission 9of13
