DESIGN
REVIEW for a
day care facility including a playground area on 1.5 acres in an R-E (Rural
Estates Residential) Zone. Generally located on the south side of
The TAB opinion is the applicant did not meet
the standards for the special use permit in a residential area. The primary concern was the location of the
playground area adjacent to existing residential. The TAB experience is this creates a noisy
situation that becomes intolerable to the neighbors. This opinion is based upon the testimony of
residents over a number of years. The
applicant was not will to consider any mitigation beyond an intense landscape
buffer. This type of buffer is an excellent
visual buffer, but does very little to reduce noise.
The granting of a special use permit should
not create a situation that will degrade neighborhood.
The TAB added if approved conditions as a
minor mitigation for the neighborhood.
H-2. ZC-0614-12 – DALE, DANIEL:
APPROVED per staff conditions
This acreage is excess after the day care
center plan was created by the applicant.
The TAB opinion is it would be better to move the day care center to the
east side of the property. This acreage
would then be available for development with the property to the west. The net effect would be additional acreage on
the southeast corner of
The current plan will allow 6 R-2 lots along
Ullom. It may be difficult to develop
this product type and small project size.
The applicant was not will to consider changes to their plans.
The TAB did not favor this plan, however there
is no legal reason to deny the application.

This is a long term, temporary project. It raises the question of how long is
temporary. Terminating this project is
not practical until the detention basin and the fill is place for other
approved projects on this property. The operator
estimated it will take 4 years to complete at the current work rate. In addition, the applicant has regular
meetings with the area resident to promote better relations. Given these circumstance the TAB recommend
the completion date be allowed for another 4 years.

This application is for the second wall
segment of three. If all three segments
are completed as planned it will result in approximately 3000 foot long wall,
10 to 15 feet high with no landscaping or other features to break up the canyon
effect. This wall must be considered in
its entire length not the individual parts to produce a uniform look acceptable
to the public.
The applicant argued there is an approval for
the northern section that does not include landscaping. The applicant failed to mention that the
Planning Commission has not acted on that application and the staff
recommendation is for denial. It not too
late to ensure the wall landscaping is uniform for all three segments.
One of the problems with this application is
the project covers two townships. This
produces two sets of recommendations.
The Enterprise TAB has dealt with the wash area and its development for
a number of years. This wall does not
simply overlook a wash.
The TAB considered the following in its recommendation.
·
Staff
position is landscaping is needed
·
The
project is being done in three phases, each with a section of this wall
·
The
approximately 3000 foot retaining wall at 10 to 15 heights requires a stair
step design to break up the canyon effect
·
This
wall bounds public property
·
Does
not provide an adequate boundary design to major project.
·
Canyon
effect would decrease the desirability of the private and public land as access
along the adjacent road is decreased.
·
View
fence on the top benefit the home owner not the public lands.
·
Public
lands should be properly buffered from private projects.
Given the height of retaining wall and the
length of the wall the TAB very strongly recommends Title 30 figure 30.64-1 be
used for the design standard.

The project replaces a mixed use plan with
single family housing. It is interesting
to note that the 5.5 units per acre is significantly less than the 14 units per
acre allowed. Title 30 only sets the
maximum number of units per acre. In
this case the developer has achieved a R-2 zone district project without going
through a non-conforming zone change.
