The applicants shall provide the Roberts residence, 1666 Frog Hill Lane, with first priority for use of the shared well for household (non-irrigation) needs until such time as the Roberts connect fo City water. The applicants shall defer planting of the vineyards until such time in the future that a proven water source on the Sarich property can be developed or it can be demonstrated that the existing shared well has the capacity to meet both the applicants' irrigation needs and the Roberts' domestic needs. In lieu of planting vineyards, the vineyard area shall be hydroseeded for erosion control purposes. This condition was included in the Planning Commission's recommended conditions of approval. Mary Roberts is concerned that the condition limits her use of the well and suggests the following revised condition: The applicants shall defer planting of the vineyards until such time in the future that an independent water source (e.g., a new well or use of City water) on the Sarich property can be developed. In lieu of planting vineyards, the vineyard area shall be hydroseeded for erosion control purposes. Staff notes that it was not the intent of either the Planning Commission or staff to limit the Roberts' use of the well and recommends that the condition be revised as follows: The applicants shall provide the adjacent property at 1666 Frog Hill Lane, with priority use of the shared well until such time as City water is connected to that site. The applicants shall defer planting of the vineyards until such time in the future that a secondary water source on the Sarich property can be developed or it can be demonstrated that the existing shared well has the capacity to meet the use requirements of both parties. In lieu of planting vineyards, the vineyard area shall be hydroseeded for erosion control purposes. PUD FINDINGS Please refer to the attached Planning Commission staff report, pages 22-25, for a discussion of the considerations needed to approve the proposed PUD development plan. PUBLIC NOTICE Notice regarding the proposed project and related City Council public hearing was mailed to the surrounding property owners and tenants within 1,000 feet of the subject property and was also published in the local newspaper. As indicated earlier in this report, adjacent neighbors Mary Roberts, Greg Reznick, and Steve Brozosky oppose the project. Prior to the Planning Commission hearing, staff had also received an email from Kevin Reedy, the closest neighbor in the Bordeaux Country Estates development, listing several comments and concerns. Mr. Reedy indicated to staff in a phone conversation that his main concern is with the proposed fill at the bottom of the property. Page 7 of 9
