Applicant Presentation: Ryan Nelson – 4260 E Houston Ave – He wants to redevelop
this area to meet the current demand for housing, as well as growing demands. The two
parcels to the south of this parcel are included in this development and are already zoned
High-Density Residential 1.
Commissioner Questions: Aaron Jensen asked if all three parcels would be developed at
the same time. Ryan confirmed all three parcels will be built at the same time. The project
would be similar to Cougar Court to the west and the other multi-family units that have been
built in the area.
Staff Report: Kyle Baldwin – Staff has talked with Public Works, and they do feel water,
sewer, and roads can adequately service the request. The Comprehensive Plan supports this
request and fits with the uses already in place around this piece. Staff is recommending the
application to the Commission to recommend approval to City Council.
Commissioner Questions: Vince Haley identified there will be no access for this parcel
directly off of S Yellowstone Highway. The access will probably not come through Cougar
Court. Will the access have to come off of Trejo? Kyle said yes. Does the City have
concerns about traffic? Keith, the Public Works Director, may require a Traffic Study
depending on the stress of the development on Trejo.
Chairperson Sally Smith opened the public input portion of the hearing at 6:51PM.
Favor: None
Neutral: None
Opposed: None
Written Correspondence: None
Rebuttal: None
Chairman asked if anyone else would like to speak. He closed the public input portion
of the hearing at 6:52PM.
Conflict of Interest? – Chairperson Sally Smith asked the Commissioners if they have a
conflict of interest or if they have been approached by any parties relative to this particular

subject. If you believe your prior contact with respect to this subject has created a bias, you
should recuse yourself, otherwise at this time please indicate the nature of your conversation
or contact. None.
Commissioner Discussion: Aaron likes Vince’s point about the traffic. Obviously, this
does not apply to the zoning, this is more of an issue during the development design.
Considering the surrounding uses, and its adjacency to the highway, this request makes
sense; it fits. Randall said he assumes the commercial zone was in place, because there are
other commercial uses around this parcel. The idea was developing this parcel commercially
to service the housing in the area. Any concerns about reducing the ability to have shops in
the area to service the housing? Vince said there is a reason Trejo Business Park has not
developed. The access intersection at this location is busy and dangerous. He believes the
centralized location in the city could be attractive for business, but there is a reason it has
not filled in with businesses. Vince would prefer residential here, rather than business. He
really likes this proposal. Aaron said he would like to put pressure on redeveloping the
existing local services. More rooftops will generate more opportunity for redevelopment of
the local services. Chairperson Smith asked for the zoning to be shown. Vince said most
of the loop in the Trejo Business Park are vacant lots. Aaron said the lots are ready to go
too. Vince said there is some industrial warehouse and a few businesses, but accesses are
not good at this location. It is tricky; is a light needed here? Jim said we do not want two
lights too close to each other.

#RPRXBCA0259012 at approximately 547 Trejo St from Community Business Center (CBC)
to High-Density Residential 1 (HDR1), because it fits with the surrounding uses.,

Planning and Zoning Administrator Parkinson reviewed a map of the proposed rezone
at approximately 547 Trejo Street. There are three parcels, two of the parcels are zoned High
Density Residential 1 (HDR1) and the highlighted parcel is zoned Community Business
Center (CBC). The property owner is requesting the HDR1 to be able to develop the three
parcels as HDR1. He said there is only one access into and out of the property; however,
they will meet the Fire Code by adding additional water sprinklers in the buildings to make it
unnecessary to have two accesses. The future plan is to have the development connect to
Turin Way.
