Following
a comprehensive presentation by staff to discuss the history of the
project and the character of the neighborhood, the Commission listened
to public testimony regarding the creek habitat, wildlife corridors
and concerns regarding the scale and mass of the proposed new
residence. Following Commission discussion on the potential biological
concerns, creek setbacks and neighborhood character, Commissioner
Ashbaugh motioned to approve the Use Permit and deny the appeal based
on findings and several additional conditions. The motion included a
condition to increase the creek setback from 20 feet to 30 feet,
recommend the project share one driveway, recommend the ARC reduce the
scale and mass of the new residence, and recommend a riparian habitat
restoration plan be included. Commissioner Stevenson seconded the
motion and commented on the excessive scale of the residence.
Commissioners Mc Coy and Carter felt that the conditions were
excessive and that the proposal already complied with the code. The
motion passed on a 3-2 vote with Commissioners Mc Coy and Carter
dissenting due to the new conditions.
