ZONING AGENDA:

 

07/01/14 PC

 

1.           1.  TM-0075-14 – CANFAM HOLDINGS, LLC:

APPROVED per staff conditions and,

STRIKE Public WorksDevelopment Review bullet 2 (Traffic study and compliance;)

 

TENTATIVE MAP consisting of 104 single family residential lots on approximately 16.1 acres in an R-2 (Medium Density Residential) Zone. Generally located on the southwest corner of Windmill Lane and Torrey Pines Drive within Enterprise.  SB/rk/ml  (For possible action)

 

The applicant has completed a traffic study with the original Tentative Map.  The original Tentative Map had a greater number of lots.  Reducing the number of lot on this Tentative Map should not increase the traffic in the area.  The TAB does not see a need for another traffic study.

 

2.           2.  TM-0080-14 – SOUTHERN HIGHLANDS INVESTMENT PARTNERS:

APPROVED per staff conditions and,

STRIKE Public Works – Development Review bullet 2 (Traffic study and compliance;)

 

TENTATIVE MAP consisting of 230 single family residential lots and common element lots on approximately 54.4 acres in an R-2 (Medium Density Residential) P-C (Planned Community Overlay District) Zone in the Southern Highlands Master Planned Community.  Generally located on the south side of Golf Estate Drives (alignment), 1,200 feet west of Augusta National Drive (alignment) within Enterprise.  SB/rk/ml  (For possible action)

 

The applicant has completed a traffic study with the original Tentative Map.  The original Tentative Map had a greater number of lots.  Reducing the number of lot on this Tentative Map should not increase the traffic in the area.  The TAB does not see a need for another traffic study.

 

3.           3.  UC-0454-14 – WJC, LLC:

APPROVED per staff conditions and,

CHANGE Current Planning bullet #1 to read:

·               8 months to commence and review as a public hearing;

 

USE PERMIT for a food cart (shaved ice) not located within an enclosed building.

 

DESIGN REVIEW for a food cart (shaved ice) in conjunction with an existing convenience store and gasoline station on 1.8 acres in a C-1 (Local Business) Zone.  Generally located on the northwest corner of Rainbow Boulevard and Windmill Lane within Enterprise.  ss/gc/ml  (For possible action)

 

This is the applicant’s initial request at this location.  The TAB considers a one season review of the operation at this particular location to see if any unanticipated pedestrian safety problems develop.  The time to commence and review was reduced to have the review during the winter months when the stand is not in operation.  This allows the applicant to plan for the next summer season.

 

4.           4.  UC-0455-14 – LEE, CLAY A. & LISA A.:

APPROVED per staff conditions

 

USE PERMIT to increase the area of an accessory building (garage) in conjunction with an existing single family residence on 1.1 acres in an R-E (Rural Estates Residential) Zone.  Generally located on the east side of Hauck Street, 150 feet south of Gary Avenue within Enterprise.  SB/dg/ml  (For possible action)

 

5.           5.  VC-0476-14 – INVERNESS 2010, LLC:

APPROVED per staff conditions and,

CHANGE Current Planning bullet #1 to read:

·         Temporary sign to be removed upon initial sale of last home in the subdivision.

 

VARIANCE for alternative standards for an existing temporary sign.

 

DESIGN REVIEW for an existing temporary sign in conjunction with a residential subdivision on a portion of 143.6 acres in an R-2 (Medium Density Residential) P-C (Planned Community Overlay District) Zone within the Southern Highlands Master Planned Community.  Generally located on the northwest corner of Southern Highlands Parkway and Royal Highlands Street within Enterprise.  SB/rk/ml  (For possible action)

 

The TAB’s opinion is this sign’s construction materials are appropriate at this location.  The sign should be allowed until the developer has sold all the newly constructed homes.  The Current Planning condition was based upon the sign being removed when the last home was built.  This would remove the sign before all the homes were sold.  The TAB condition changed the wording to “initial sale” of the last home in the subdivision.  The sign is not intended for use by homes being sold in the resale market.

 

6.           6.  VS-0446-14 - CANFAM HOLDINGS, LLC:

APPROVED per staff conditions

 

VACATE AND ABANDON a portion of right-of-way being Crimson Creek Court located between Windmill Lane and Shelbourne Avenue, a portion of right-of-way being Hunter Hill Court Lane located between Windmill Lane and Shelbourne Avenue, a portion of right-of-way being Dover Canyon Court located between Windmill Lane and Shelbourne Avenue, and a portion of right-of-way being Duncan Peak Court located between Windmill Lane and Shelbourne Avenue within Enterprise (description on file). SB/rk/xx  (For possible action)

 

7.           7.  WS-0463-14 – GAMEDAY, LLC, ET AL:

APPROVED per staff “If Approved” conditions

 

WAIVER OF DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS for an increased combined maximum width of architectural enclosure projecting into a required setback.

 

DESIGN REVIEW for a single family residential development on 60.2 acres in an R-2 (Medium Density Residential) Zone.  Generally located on the southeast corner of Jones Boulevard and Silverado Ranch Boulevard within Enterprise.  SB/mk/ml (For possible action)

 

The TAB is generally opposed to blanket waivers. The TAB’s opinion is this waiver is acceptable for two reasons.  First, the architectural enclosure is offered on one of eight models.  Second, that model is a larger home that requires a larger lot.  There are a limited number of larger lots in this development.  The limited number of larger lots constrains the use of this waiver.   In addition, the applicant will have to comply with the amended fire codes if the side setback is below 5 feet.

 

8.           8.  WS-0466-14 – SILVERADO PROMENADE, LLC:

                                    HELD to the June 25, 2014 TAB meeting per agreement with the applicant

 

WAIVERS OF DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS for the following: 

 

1) Eliminate landscaping along a street; and

2) Allow non-standard improvements within the right-of-way

 

in conjunction with an approved shopping center on 13.9 acres in a C-2 (General Commercial) Zone in the MUD-1 Overlay District.  Generally located on the southeast corner of Las Vegas Boulevard South and Silverado Ranch Boulevard within Enterprise.  SS/gc/xx  (For possible action)

 

9.      WT-0472-14 – SOUTHERN HIGHLANDS INVESTMENT PARTNERS:

The applicant has completed a traffic study with the original Tentative Map.  The original Tentative Map had a greater number of lots.  Reducing the number of lot on this Tentative Map should not increase the traffic in the area.  The TAB does not see a need for another traffic study.

10.    WS-0151-12 (ET-0065-14) - MERITAGE HOMES OF NEVADA, INC:

                                    DENIED per staff "If Approved" conditions

 

WAIVER OF DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS FIRST EXTENSION OF TIME  for a request to extend the time on an off-site improvement bond for completion of the off-site improvements in conjunction with a residential condominium development in a C-2 (General Commercial) P-C (Planned Community Overlay District) Zone in the Mountain’s Edge Master Planned Community.  Generally located on the east side of Durango Drive and the south side of Blue Diamond Road within Enterprise.  SB/rk/ml  (For possible action)

 

The TAB agrees with the staff position on this application.  The work on this site began in 2006 and has not been completed.  Eight years is too long for infrastructure not to be completed.  The original developer is no longer working in Nevada and part of the subdivision owned by the bank and other parties.  However, the bond on a project is not transferred in a bankruptcy proceeding.  The result is the original developer is responsible to complete the infrastructure work.  Given the lack of progress, length of time, and the developer is no longer present in Nevada the bond should be called.

PREVIOUS ACTION

Enterprise TAB May 14, 2014: HELD to the May 28, 2014 TAB meeting with the applicant’s consent: 5-0. (Previously heard)

Enterprise TAB May 28, 2014: HELD to the June 11, 2014 TAB meeting per request of the applicant.

 

This application was held for the applicant to meet with the neighbors.  The neighbors were concerned with the following:

·   Increased traffic and traffic safety

·   Building mass

·   Lighting and signage

·   Landscaping

·   Hours of operation

 

The applicant has changed their plans and offered conditions to mitigate the neighbors’ concerns.  The building design is much better that typically seen for a storage faculty. It is relatively low intensity use when compared to other uses allow in this zone district.

 

The TAB conditions are based upon the results of the neighborhood meeting and the applicants revised plans.  The applicant has suggested and agreed to all of the TAB conditions.

 

 

PUBLIC COMMENTS

1.   A citizen related the following: Reflective light and reflective windows: anything below 1350 nanometers (infrared light) at a 45 degree angle must reflect 97 plus % of the light.  This is how infrared must be reflected to the ground.  This applies to all commercial buildings today.

2.      A citizen related the following:

Questioned why some of the arterial roads have incomplete build out with different land configurations.  The concern is north/south arterial roads vary from two to six lanes south of Clark County 215.  The road construction on some arterials to their full width was the responsibility of several major projects.  Some work was done by the major projects but not all that was required.  The individual property owner is now responsible for their section as they develop the property.
