1.      UC-0116-10 – 8480 SOUTH, LLC:

Approved Per Current Planning conditions

 

USE PERMIT for second hand sales in conjunction with an existing retail center on 1.0 acre in an H-1 (Limited Resort and Apartment) Zone and a C-2 (General Commercial) Zone within the MUD-1 Overlay District.  Generally located on the northeast corner of Las Vegas Boulevard South and Wigwam Avenue within Enterprise.  SS/tc/dr

 

A zoning boundary splits the lease space with the majority of the space being zoned C-2 and a portion of the space (approximately 150 square feet) being zoned H-1.  Second hand sales are permitted in C-2 and not permitted in H-1 zone district.  This permit is required because of the 150 sq ft in the H-1 zone district.

 

2.      VS-0101-10 – ROSA, LUIS A.:

Approved per Staff conditions

 

VACATE AND ABANDON easements of interest to Clark County located between the 215 Beltway and Pamalyn Avenue, and between Hinson Street and Valley View Boulevard in an R-E (Rural Estates Residential) (RNP-I) (AE-60) Zone within Enterprise (description on file).  SS/jt/dr

 

This is an interesting case.  In the county records, there is a 35 year old error concerning the vacation of patent easements on this property.  It is easier to process this application for removal of the patent easements than correct the old recording error.

 

3.      VS-0102-10 – BANKERS UNION TRUST:

Approved per Staff conditions

 

VACATE AND ABANDON easements of interest to Clark County located between Silverado Ranch Boulevard and Gary Avenue (alignment), and between Rogers Street (alignment) and Arville Street in an R-E (Rural Estates Residential) Zone within Enterprise (description on file).  SS/jt/dr

 

4.      VS-0104-10 – ITALIANO, NELSON P AND CARLETTA G; SCHWARTZ, GENE L:

Approved per Staff conditions

 

VACATE AND ABANDON easements of interest to Clark County located between Richmar Avenue (alignment) and Gary Avenue (alignment), and between Cameron Street (alignment) and Arville Street in an R-E (Rural Estates Residential) (AE-60) Zone within Enterprise (description on file).  SS/jt/dr

 

5.      VS-0112-10 – RICHMOND AMERICAN HOMES:

Approved per Staff conditions

 

VACATE AND ABANDON easements of interest to Clark County located between Robindale Road and Maulding Avenue and between Decatur Boulevard and Canyon Rain Street in an R-2 (Medium Density Residential) Zone within Enterprise (description on file).  SS/mh/dr

 

Patent easements are generally vacated in the early stages of development before a property has been subdivided.  However, while conducting an ALTA survey on the property, it was discovered that the easements remain and must be vacated in order for the construction of the homes to move forward.

 

6.      VS-0113-10 - NEVADA SENIOR HOLDINGS, LLC:

Approved per Staff conditions

 

VACATE AND ABANDON a portion of right-of-way being Ione Road located between Eastern Avenue and Jeffreys Street in a U-V (Urban Village - Mixed Use) Zone in the MUD-4 Overlay District within Enterprise (description on file).  SS/mk/dr

 

05/05/10 BCC

 

7.      WT-0255-09 (ET-0053-10) – CANFAM HOLDINGS, LLC:

Approved per Staff conditions and change Major Projects bullet #1 to read:

·      2 years to complete per Clark County off-site inspectors;

 

WAIVER FIRST EXTENSION OF TIME to extend the time limit for an improvement bond in conjunction with an existing development in an R-2 (Medium Density Residential) Zone in the Pinnacle Peaks Concept Plan area.  Generally located on the north and south sides of Shelbourne Avenue and east of Rainbow Boulevard within Enterprise.  SS/rk/dr

 

The bonds for this project cannot be released until all the houses are built.  The majority of the infrastructure has been built.  Given the slowdown of the real estate market, the TAB felt 2 yrs would be a better time extension.

 

8.      WS-0114-10 – BUREAU OF LAND MANAGEMENT:

DENIED per Staff recommendation

 

WAIVER OF DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS for full off-site improvements (including paving) for a future road alignment known as Maravilla Grove Way on 20.0 acres in a P-F (Public Facility) P-C (Planned Community Overlay District) Zone in the Mountain’s Edge Master Planned Community.  Generally located east of El Capitan Way and north of Mountains Edge Parkway within Enterprise.  SB/rk/dr

 

The applicant wants to leave their half of Maravilla Grove Way as an unimproved road (dirt road).  The applicant stated there is a fixed amount of funding available for the construction of Nathaniel Jones Park from the Mountains Edge LLC (Focus).  Any money spent on the road would be subtracted from features in the park.  The road improvements were estimated to be $80,000 to $90,000.  However, the applicant did not have a good estimate of what would be removed from the park construction.

 

The neighbors present would like the road to be completed and lose some of the park features.

 

The TAB decision was based on several factors.

 

·   It is highly unusual for no off-sites to be constructed.

·   Other entities adjacent to Maravilla Grove Way are providing half street off-sites

·   The approval of this waiver could be used as a legal precedent to avoid off-site improvements in the future.

·   There is no staff condition for a deed covenant to develop off sites.

o              The land is currently owned by the BLM

o              It may not be possible to place covenants on federal land.

·   Other than denial, the staff agenda sheet did not provide any alternatives.

·   The tax payers, most likely, would be responsible for future off sites costs.

·   The TAB has consistently voted to have the appropriate off-sites installed.

 

One TAB member felt the roads’ funds are one budget line and park funds another.  If this waiver was not next to a park, the question of removing park amenities to accomplish road construction would not have come up. The applicant seems to be trying to blur the line between road construction and park construction.
