ZONING AGENDA:

 

06/04/13 PC

 

1.            TM-0055-13 – GREAT WESTERN BANK:

APPROVED per staff conditions

 

TENTATIVE MAP consisting of 17 single family residential lots on 10.1 acres in an R-E (Rural Estates Residential) Zone and an R-E (Rural Estates Residential) (RNP-I) Zone.  Generally located on the south side of Windmill Lane and the east and west sides of Rancho Destino Road within Enterprise.  SS/gc/ml  (For possible action)

 

The neighborhood meeting was well attended and questions on this application were answered.  This resulted in no opposition to this item at the TAB meeting.  The developer stated that there would not be a HOA for this development.  A TAB concern was the prohibition of large animals where allowed by the code.  The TAB made two suggestions to the developer.

·   The developer has a stable option available.  This should be included as an option for these properties.

·   The homes along Rancho Destino Road to face the local street, not the cul-de-sac.

 

2.      UC-0203-13 – IMCC LAS VEGAS CIMARRON, LLC:

APPROVED per staff conditions with the following changes:

STRIKE Uses numbered 4) caterer; 5) day care; 8) funeral home; 9) grocery store; 23) minor training facility.

ADD condition:

·      Public Hearing for any use that requires separation from a residential use.

 

USE PERMITS for the following: 

 

1) On-premise consumption of alcohol (service bar);

2) Art gallery/studio;

3) Antiques;

4) Caterer;

5) Day care;

6) Financial services;

7) Food processing;

8) Funeral home;

9) Grocery store;

10) Jewelry sales;

17) Pharmacy;

18) Postal service;

19) Restaurant;

20) Retail sales;

21) Shoe repair;

22) Sporting goods; and

23) Minor training facility

 

in conjunction with an existing commercial development on 2.7 acres in an H-2 (General Highway Frontage) Zone in the MUD-4 Overlay District.  Generally located on the southwest corner of Blue Diamond Road and Cimarron Road within Enterprise.  SB/al/ml  (For possible action)

 

There is strong neighborhood interest in this application.  The neighborhood concerns are:

·      Uses not compatible with the neighborhood.

·      Does Cimarron Road have the capability to handle the traffic?

·      Cimarron is a collector, but was not developed to collector standards.

·      Some list uses may require more parking than available.

·      Given the property history, the neighborhood felt they should be consulted prior to the TAB meeting.

 

The applicant views this application as a bridge from H-2 to C-1 zoning and uses on this property.  A non-conforming zone change application has been submitted.

 

The TAB questioned the idea of blanket use permit approvals.  This does not allow the TAB or the Commissioners to review a use to determine how it blends into the neighborhood.  Several of the uses requested correspond to uses by current tenants and should be granted.

 

The TAB recommended the uses that could produce a heavy impact on parking not be granted at this time and there should be a public hearing.  The TAB also recommended that any use, with a separation requirement from residential, require a public hearing for the use.

 

It was suggested the applicant hold a neighborhood meeting prior to the Planning Commission meeting to discuss the shopping center and the effect on the neighborhood.

 

3.      UC-0221-13 – JUREWICZ, STANLEY M.:

APPROVED per staff conditions and,

CHANGE Current Planning condition #1 to read:

·      1 year to commence and review as a public hearing.

 

USE PERMIT to increase the number of large agricultural animals (horses) in conjunction with an existing single family dwelling on 1.1 acres in an R-E (Rural Estates Residential) (RNP-I) Zone.  Generally located on the west side of Haven Street, 270 feet north of Pebble Road within Enterprise.  SS/al/ml  (For possible action)

 

The application drew some opposition from neighboring residents.  The objection was the dust and flies generated by this location create a health hazard that could not be challenged scientifically.

 

The TAB considered the following:

·      There were 6 CCPRO actions

o        5 found no violation

o        1 found 9 horses where four are allowed

o        No commercial activity was found

·      The applicant has reduced the number of horses to 4.

·      The arena area is watered daily.

·      Sand has been brought in to help control dust.

·      The applicant volunteers time and horses for autistic youth activities.

·      The horses on the property are rescue animals.

·      The request for 12 horses was arrived at with help of the staff.

·      Previously, 20 horses were approved on the property.

·      The description of daily cleanup indicated a well-cared for property

·      There are other horse properties in the area that do not have the same upkeep level.

 

The opinion is the applicant is making a good effort to prevent flies and dust.  A one year review is appropriate to ensure the applicant has made the changes for better dust control.

 

Another significant factor is the applicant’s willingness to take in rescue horses.  There is a shortage in Enterprise of places for unwanted horses to go.  This application provides a needed service.

 

4.      UC-0222-13 – COUNTY OF CLARK (AVIATION):

APPROVED per staff conditions

 

USE PERMIT for a communication tower

 

DESIGN REVIEW for a communication tower in conjunction with an approved data center on 17.8 acres in an M-D (Designed Manufacturing) Zone in the CMA Design Overlay District.  Generally located on the north side of Warm Springs Road and the east side of Lindell Road within Enterprise.  ss/pb/ml  (For possible action)

The eight month review allows the summer to determine the appropriateness of the site and to process the review before the next season for the shaved ice cart.

 

6.      VS-0216-13 – GREAT WESTERN BANK:

APPROVED per staff conditions

Three of the five added conditions were attached to a previous application.  The recommendation to add architectural enhancements to the east and north side of the in-line building was added due to close proximity of residences.  There was a discussion on the location of the car wash and the effects on the adjacent residential.  The recommendation is to limit the car wash operation hours to County “day light” hours.

 

8.      VS-0233-13 – NV NAP9, LLC:

APPROVED per staff conditions

 

VACATE AND ABANDON easements of interest to Clark County located between Warm Springs Road and Eldorado Lane and between Jones Boulevard and Lindell Road, and portions of a right-of-way being Warm Springs Road located between Jones Boulevard and Lindell Road, and portions of rights-of-way being Jones Boulevard and Lindell Road located between Warm Springs Road and Eldorado Lane in an R-E (Rural Estates Residential) Zone and a C-2 (General Commercial) Zone within Enterprise (description on file).  SS/pb/ml  (For possible action)

 Per staff conditions

2) Reduced street off-set. 

 

Generally located 630 feet north of Cactus Avenue and 980 feet east Buffalo Drive within Enterprise (description on file).  SB/rk/ml  (For possible action)

 

This application was strongly opposed by a number of residents.  Their concerns were:

·      Toll Brothers has not maintained a consistent product for the neighborhood.

o        Ally loaded product with estate lot product.

o        The product changed to an ally loaded residence in phase two,

·      New homes being built do not blend with the established neighborhood,

·      Insufficient side setbacks

·      Requested this application be denied.

 

The TAB considered the following in recommending the zone district to R-1.

·      The TAB is reluctant to grant a zone district denser than required for the project.

·      The project is a better fit in the R-1 zone district than the R-2 zone district.

·      The current residents’ concerns with density

·      The R-1 zone district will help answer some of the current resident concerns.

·      The Master developer may not be enforcing the master plan standards (no representative present at the TAB)

 

The TAB recommended adding a design review to the zone change to ensure the Mountain’s Edge architectural standards are adhered to.

 

10.    ZC-0232-13 – NV NAP9, LLC:

APPROVED per staff conditions and,

ADD Current Planning conditions:

   Cypress trees to be planted along southern boarder;

   Generator testing only between the hours of 8:00 am and 5:00 pm.

 

ZONE CHANGE to reclassify 2.5 acres from R-E (Rural Estates Residential) Zone to C-2 (General Commercial) Zone.

 

DESIGN REVIEW for a data center on 38.1 acres in a C-2 (General Commercial) Zone.  Generally located on the south side of Warm Springs Road between Jones Boulevard and Lindell Road within Enterprise (description on file).  ss/pb/ml  (For possible action)

 

This application is a change to the project approved in February 2012.  This application moves the electrical substation away from the residential to the south.  It also increases the building size by 80,000 sq. ft.

 

Two adjacent residences were concerned about the mass of the building and what uses are contained in the building.

 

The TAB added two conditions to help buffer this project from the residence to the south.  There are a number of generators along the southern building elevation.  The testing of these generators should only be done during the day when most residents are at work.  There is no landscaping proposed along the southern project boundary.  The wall visible to the residential development to the south will be 12 feet on the western portion and 18 feet on the eastern portion.  The TAB would like the developer to explore the use of cypress trees along the southern border to provide some buffering and maintain the required security for the facility.

HELD to May 29, 2013 TAB Meeting
