proposed pool such that all parties involved would be satisfied. A satisfactory solution has not <br />been found through the discussion and compromise process and therefore staff requests that the <br />Planning Commission considers the following and provide such recommendation to the City <br />Council. <br />1. Allow the applicant to maintain their original request to reduce the required 20-foot rear <br />yard setback to 5-feet and reduce the required side yard setback from 10-feet to 5-feet: <br />2. Allow the applicants to reduce the side yard setback from the required 10-feet to 5-feet, <br />however, reduce the rear yard setback from the required 20-feet to 10-feet; <br />3. Allow the applicants to reduce the side yard setback form the required 10-feet to 5-feet, <br />however, maintain the required 20-foot rear yard setback as established in the PUD <br />Guidelines; or <br />4. Require the applicants to maintain the required 10-foot side yard setback and the <br />required 20-foot rear yard setback. <br />PUD modifications to reduce the rear yard setback for a pool to 10-feet have been supported by <br />the City in the past in similar developments. The applicants feel that they are not asking for <br />anything unusual and feel that they have made every effort to do what is best for the <br />development as a hole while trying to be accommodating to the Besso's. <br />The attached conditions of approval in Exhibit B would be modified accordingly to reflect the <br />Planning Commissions recommendation to the City Council. <br />PUBLIC NOTICE <br />Pursuant to the Planned Unit Development Minor Modification process, staff notified the <br />surrounding properties on July, 18, 2007. In response to the notification, staff received <br />comments from two neighbors, Judy and Terry Besso, 4538 River Rock Hill Road, who <br />expressed concerns about the drainage given the proximity of the pool/spa/waterfall to their <br />home, and Kryssa Cooper, 8045 Oak Creek Drive, who expressed support of the proposed <br />application. The Besso's concerns and the applicant's response are outlined in the a-mail dated <br />Wednesday, July 25, 2007 in Exhibit D-2. After speaking with the Besso's, staff had provided <br />the applicant with the following options: <br />^ Since there was objection to the application, move forward with a major <br />modification to the PUD with a recommendation from the Planning Commission <br />to the City Council for final action; <br />OR <br />Since both the applicant and rear neighbor seemed willing to try and come to a <br />compromise, staff would put the application "on hold" until the Spencer's and <br />Besso's went through some type of mediation process to see if a compromise <br />could be reached. <br />PUD-99-01-OS, Steven Spencer Planning Commission <br />9of11 <br />
