PUD-114-01M, Guy Houston, on behalf of Resurrection Greek Orthodox Church, for Pleasant View Church of Christ, 11300 Dublin Canyon Road — Work Session to review and receive comments on a proposal for a Major Modification to Planned Unit Development (PUD-114), Minor Subdivision, and Conditional Use Permit to construct and operate a 9,792-square-foot church and 24,971-square-foot multi-purpose building with gymnasium on a 4.3-acre portion of the 16-acre Pleasant View Church of Christ site. Zoning is PUD-RDR/A-OS (Planned Unit Development — Rural Density Residential/Agriculture and Open Space) District. Associate Planner Jennifer Hagen presented the specifics of the item in the Agenda Report. Commissioner Allen asked the distance from the road to the two-story portion of the building, which Ms. Hagen stated was approximately 40-50 feet from the road. She discussed the Planning Commission's 2016 support of three homes, located as far back as possible from the road with a substantial landscape buffer. She stated the proposed project building footprint was almost twice as much and setbacks were much narrower than the previously approved residential project. She requested staff advise on how the Planning Commission should consider the aesthetics of rural residential in agricultural zoning and the definition or characteristics within rural residential zoning. Ms. Hagen stated there was no formal definition in City documents for rural density, but noted staff typically looked for denser, more lush landscaping and screening, with meandering sidewalks. Community Development Director Ellen Clark added that larger setbacks and more natural materials were also typical of rural residential development. Commissioner Allen requested the City Traffic Engineer Mike Tassano discuss the traffic analysis, including impacts on weekdays. Mr. Tassano stated church activities were light Planning Commission Minutes Page 2 of 10 April 14, 2021
