Resolution No. PC-2007-45 approving PCUP-203 was entered and adopted as motioned. Matters Continued for Decision a. PCUP-196, Rachelle Nguyen Application for a conditional use permit to operate an indoor recreation facility for up to 40 children at the property located at 7071-7073 Commerce Circle. Zoning for the property is I-G-40,000 (General Industrial) District. Ms. Soo presented the staff report and summarized the background, scope, and revised layout of this application. Chairperson Fox noted that she had visited the site and added that one nearby building had a patio with a gate and a fence. She inquired whether or not staff would recommend a fence and gate in front of this building as well. Ms. Decker noted that the changes to the floor plan addressed the Planning Commission’s concern regarding safety issues and that gating or fencing in the front area had not been considered; staff did not believe gating and fencing would be necessary. THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS OPENED. Rachelle Nguyen, applicant, noted that she was available to answer questions. Commissioner Blank thanked the applicant for working with staff to address the Commission’s concerns. Ms. Nguyen noted that they also worked with the corporate office, looking at many layouts, to find a solution that would provide a safe pedestrian walkway for the children. She noted that with this walkway, the person at the cash register up front still has the ability to monitor the rear entrance and can see people entering and exiting the building from the back. Commissioner Narum thanked the applicant for the modifications and added that she was much more comfortable about this application. THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED. Ms. Harryman addressed a procedural issue, stating that at the last meeting after the Commission voted, Commissioner Olson made a motion to reconsider the decision, which was seconded, followed by a majority vote (4-1, Fox dissenting). She indicated that at this time, the process would be to reconsider the original motion made at the last meeting by Commissioner Blank and seconded by Commissioner Olson to make the required conditional use findings as listed in the staff report and to approve the project subject to the conditions of approval, with the modifications as spelled out by Ms. Decker. If majority vote to uphold the approval at the last meeting, the decision would stand; otherwise, the Commission should then consider staff’s recommendation made at this evening’s hearing.
