Commissioner Morgan clarified his comment comparing church and school parking. Ms. Clark stated the Commission could consider other mitigations, such as splitting the pickup and drop off times into shifts. Commissioner Allen moved to approve P21-0715/P22-0126 with conditions of approval for a 15-student maximum and two different pickup and drop off shifts, with the students split into two different groups with a defined set of time between them. Commissioner Nibert asked if the applicant had concerns about the proposed motion or if he had other suggestions. Mr. Bryson explained that most of the students were part of families and would be arriving in the same car. He stated the 15 student limit would reduce the school's opportunity to grow. Chair Pace suggested the possibility of limiting the number of vehicle trips. Commissioner Brown asked if the school was currently operating. Chair Pace confirmed it was currently only online. Commissioner Nibert asked if there was a benefit to observing parking during Sunday services. Mr. Tassano stated he did not see the need to watch the church parking operations. He stated he understood the concerns and agreed with staggered drop off and pickup times. Commissioner Morgan moved to approve P21-0715/P22-0126 with conditions of approval for a 15-student maximum, a parking and traffic mitigation plan submitted to the traffic engineering department from the applicant, and, should the school wish to increase their student cap, they would come back before the Planning Commission. Commissioner Nibert moved to approve P21-07151P22-0126 with conditions of approval that there be pickup and drop off shifts and limiting the number of cars trips. Chair Pace seconded Commissioner Allen's motion.

Planning Commission Minutes Page 5 of 8 February 23, 2022 stated conditions could be modified or the permit revoked if there were issues. Chair Pace asked for additional information on permits returning to the Commission for reconsideration. Ms. Harryman stated issues were generally resolved without permits returning to the Commission. Commissioner Allen asked if a scaled back version could be approved to reduce risk, with reconsideration in six months. Ms. Harryman stated a condition of approval could be included which could later be expanded. Chair Pace suggested obtaining additional data through a trial period. Planning Commission Minutes Page 4 of 8 February 23, 2022 stated she would like to increase residential fees based on square footage or number of bedrooms and that tier pricing was critical. She suggested reconsidering the basis for the low-income housing study, especially for residential. She requested more data on the expenditure of funding and what percentage was directed at adding more housing versus the other programs, because HCD was looking at the number of built units. She stated it was worth exploring a housing overlay zone but the ordinance should align with State law for short term. Planning Commission Minutes Page 5 of 7 February 9, 2022 a business person would be equal with building a unit and paying an IZO. Ms. Clark explained the basis for the inclusionary zoning requirement, and the amount of the low-income housing fee were different and therefore, there was a disjuncture between the two fees (i.e. the in-lieu fee does not cover 100 % of the cost of constructing an affordable unit).
