Minutes Planning Commission June 24, 1987 excavation for the driveway. On the previous plan, he would have to look at a lot of driveway. Rebuttal was then given by the Black's architect, Mr. Frechette. He stated that the Black's were actually the victims. They agreed at City Council meeting to a contour plan that they didn't understand. Mr. Frechette was commissioned to plan the best possible usage of the land and contours of the land. When the hillside is done and revegetated, there will be a cabana club and pool with a revegetated hillside which will look great. Mr. Frechette further reported that the Blacks will have title to the property in tYie next day or so when escrow closes. The public hearing was closed. Commissioner Tarver stated that the surrounding residents have done a lot to compromise and it appears the Black's are trying to get to much on a hill, i.e., cabana, pool, and large house. City Council let them move the pad and everyone seemed to agree on its location. Because of these circumstances, he would favor denial of the proposed application. Commissioner Michelotti stated she has gone on the site and looked at the contours of the hills. The original siting was not a good choice. She liked the new proposed roadway and would like staff and the applicant to work out a solution so it would remain the same. Commissioner Michelotti wanted to make sure that the tree is preserved. Commissioner Michelotti would really like the neighbors and applicant to reach a compromise. Commissioner Mahern stated she could see both sides of the situation and acknowledged that a lot of compromises have already been made. Chairman Lindsey recapped that the original pads were approved. This particular applicant came back and asked for a change. The Planning Commission denied it and it went to City Council. At that time a compromise plan was approved. The buyers of this lot should have been aware of what was approved for it. A motion was made by Commissioner Mahern, seconded by Commissioner Tarver that Case PUD-82-10-6M be denied for the reasons stated in the testimony.
