MINUTES PLANNING COMMISSION June 8, 1983 Commissioner Wilson asked if the project is to be condominiums or townhouse units. Mr. Dunkley responded they would be condominium units. Mr. Harris indicated one possibility would be to have an 11 lot subdivision so that effectively the final map could be filed and safeguard the RAP approval. Mr. Dunkley responded that grading as shown on the final map would change insignificantly but it would change. Commissioner Doherty stated that if this project is going to be built concurrently with the one across the street and a precedent is already set for garages and not carports, he asked what the problem would be. He indicated he would be inclined to call the changes proposed '.minor' if the garages remained. Mr. Dunkley again requested that the carports be allowed conditionally. He indicated that in talking to City Council members he has three members who support his plan. He further stated that his personal residence has three carports and no garages, and this works satisfactorily. Commissioner Getty indicated that the street improvements in the area are needed desperately and believes that possibly City Council made in error in not granting carports across the street. Chairman Jamieson asked Mr. Dunkley if these carports could be modified if necessary. Mr. Dunkley indicated they could as they only require garage door openers and sidewalls. Further that if they are ever converted to condominiums that they are in total agreement they should be converted. Commissioner Wilson asked the size of the carports proposed. Mr. Dunkley indicated that off-hand he did not know. Commissioner Wilson felt that if the Commission or Council desired to pull an item up for review, they should be able to do so. Assistant City Attorney, Brian Swift, spoke to the tentative and final map on this project and proposed changes. Commissioner Doherty did not wish to hold up Mr. Dunkley's project but did not like carports replacing garages. He then rescinded his motion to appeal this project for full public hearing. Commissioner Wilson and staff had discussion concerning the Johnson and Dunkley properties relative to the proposed pump station. Mr. Warnick explained that Mr. Dunkley was approved-prior to the foreseen need of the pump station. He indicated that the property owners are reaching agreement in this regard. Commissioner Wilson then asked about the list he requested showing the percentage of single-family units vs. multiple-family units. Mr. Harris indicated that this is currently being worked on by staff. -3-
