DRAFT PUD-98-16-3M, David Bogstad and Black Mountain Development, Mariposa Ranch (Callippe Golf Course) Applicafion for a PUD major modification to modify design guidelines and review processes for the future homes of the Mariposa Ranch development by the Callippe Golf Course. Zoning for the property is PUD-GC and LDR (Planned Unit Development - Golf Course and Low Density Residential) District. Mr. Pavan presented the staffreport, recommending support to the applicant's request to modify the design guidelines and approval process for the future homes on the 34 lots in the Mariposa Ranch development contiguous to the Callipe Golf Course. He defined the changes to the guidelines in that the proposed modification further develops the existing design guidelines enlarging the design standards into two (2) complete, detailed volumes for the lots. Four architecture styles are provided that the home designs would follow. The modification would also delegate the design review approval of the custom home designs to the Planning Director/Zoning Administrator following the procedures set forth in the Municipal Code and with added procedures to pre-notify the Planning Commission and public. THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS OPENED. Mr. David Bogstad, representing the applicants, was present to speak in favor of the application and to answer questions. He stated that the nature of custom home designs for high-end houses would ensure that no two homes would have the same appearance. He added that the scope of the proposed guidelines and the review procedures outlined in the guidelines would ensure that high levels of design quality are achieved with these homes while providing for increased processing efficiencies. Vanessa Kawaihau, 871 Sycamore Road, spoke in support of the proposed guidelines and felt that the single-story-only restriction for Lot 5 facing Westbridge Lane should be deleted since the homes proposed by Greenbriar Homes on the Spotorno property facing Westbridge Lane are proposed to be two stories. She added that Westbridge Lane should be described as a temporary access road only and that the trail circling the golf course may include bikes pending City approval. Kevin Close, 871 Sycamore Road, spoke in favor of the proposed guidelines, adding that landscape lighting, especially up-lighting, should be prohibited. Jon Freitas, Happy Valley resident, spoke in opposition of the proposal and felt that the design review process outlined for these homes with the previous PUD approval should be maintained so that the Happy Valley residents would have ample time to review the applications and make their concerns known to staff. THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED. Commissioner Roberts noted that the design guidelines were well done and that the examples of styles afforded better direction for the property owners and their architects/builders. The Commission's discussion focused on the public receiving adequate notice of a proposed home design, thereby giving the public adequate time to register their comments and concerns DRAFT EXCERPTS: PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES, March 9, 2005 Page 1 of 3
