All Aye RE: BART STEVENS VALLEY VIEW ESTATES TOPIC: (500,211,,,STEVENS*BART,VALLEY" VIEW ESTATES,PLATS,2ND EAST) Bart Stevens Valley View Estates Division Number 4 Final Plat review. John Millar reviewed the plat with the board. He stated he believed they had the details fairly well worked out on the plat. They are still having some problems locating where water lines are laid out. It still needs to have departmental review and go through the necessary checks but as far as details go the only question he wanted to present today is when you look on our Transportation Plan 2nd East is shown as a Minor Arterial. That road is about eight or nine years old. Through the rest of the town where it is curb and guttered it has a 44' section. If we build this to the Minor Arterial, it would require this section be widen 14' John stated that his feeling is that he was not sure we would benefit any in doing that. He suggested that the city had a hard time when they widened the road as much as it is and he didn't know how it would be accepted to widen it more. (discussion) There is an existing 100 foot right-a-way through there. Part of it was dedicated when the subdivision John Watson is in was built. The other part was when 2nd East was widened so there is sufficient right-a-way through there. This will require sidewalks to be placed along there. All the sidewalks along 2nd East are contiguous to the curb however his recommendation is that this sidewalk be moved back with a 7' planting strip and a 5' sidewalk. Other than that and the departmental approval he would recommend approval of this final plat. Bart discussed that he had been trying to contact someone to talk about the church procuring the lot on the south of the church. John Watson said he had sent information and a letter about it. Discussion on location of fire hydrants and sewer line. Discussion on width of the road and if it needed to be widened and also storm drainage. Bart told them the lots will have a 35' set back. • ~/~ A motion was made by John Watson that the plat be approved. as drawn pending departmental approval and that the road be constructed as a per a Collector Criteria with the provision that Bart put a requirement in the Protective Covenants that there will be no trees planted within 14' of back of curb. (This would make it easier for a Minor Arterial to be built if needed in future years.) Motion seconded by Roger Muir. All Aye RE: PROFESSIONAL PLAZA STREET ABANDONMENT TOPIC: (500,212,,,ABANDONMENTS,STREETS,PROFESSIONAL PLAZA) Possible Abandonment of Part of the Street in Professional Plaza. John Watson and Doug Smith declared a conflict of interest. John Watson presented a drawing and explained that the drawing shows the change in the road in Professional Plaza. Professional Plaza was originally put together by a private development and at some point in time they turned the street over to the city and it has always been an odd dimension. The issue is right now the property line is behind the sidewalk in front of Archibalds and comes down to Smiths. The property line stays in the same plane and so you develop a landscape area that is technically right-a-way or city property. By having it that way what that means is none of the property owners can put signage out in the right-a-way. He had reviewed it with John Millar and asked him what could be done about it because it made sense that the property line stay behind the sidewalk and John Millar suggested a possible abandonment of the property. John Millar said he could not see a problem in doing that. A motion was made by Mike Thueson and seconded by Raymond Hill to send it to the council with the recommendation that they proceed with the abandonment. All Aye RE: PLANNING & ZONING MEETINGS TOPIC: (500,212,,,PLANNING & ZONING) Doug Smith made a motion that the Planning & Zoning Meetings be changed back to Wednesday nights instead of Thursday starting the first meeting in January. (discussion) All Aye There will also be only one meeting in November because of Thanksgiving and one meeting in December because of Christmas RE: PARKING LOT LAYOUT FOR HILLCREST TOPIC: (500,212,,,PARKING LOTS,HILLCREST,5TH SOUTH,HARVARD) Parking Lot Layout for Hillcrest - John showed a plan for a parking lot for Hillcrest Apartments located at 5th South and Harvard. As near as they can find there was no right-a-way acquired from Hillcrest when Harvard was put in. There are two or three issues, even if we say right-a-way is at back of curb the ordinance prohibits parking in setback area which would make the parking lot not in compliance. Another condition is this parking lot has been unpaved for over 20 years which predates our current ordinance. He has been trying to work with a solution with this non compliance issue that will get this parking lot paved which is needed and still be what we want. What John would like to propose to them is we allow a 7' setback, a 5' sidewalk, and build the parking lot to the sidewalk. This would fit in under previous rules and would match up with the development north of them ~~~ and should be a workable solution but it does need review by Planning & Zoning. A motion was made by Mike Thueson to approve the recommendation made by John for the parking lot. Seconded by Bobbette Carlson. All Aye RE: ANNEXATION OF PROPERTY ON SOUTH 5TH WEST TOPIC: (500,213,,,ANNEXATION,5TH WEST,7TH SOUTH) Annexation of Property on South 5th West- John Millar discussed with the Planning Board where the city limits extends to on 5th West. It goes out to 7th South. There are two pieces of property one owned by Jeppesens and one owned by Davis that are in excess of 5 acres and would need the owners approval. The city is seeking annexation down to the Moffet property. The city can annex property under 5 acres that is not agriculture without the property owners permission. A motion was made by Roger Muir and seconded by Mike Thueson to recommend to the City Council to proceed with annexation and possible to approach the property owners farther south for possible annexation.
