DESIGN REVIEW for a single family residential development on 40.0 acres in an R-2 (Medium Density Residential) P-C (Planned Community Overlay District) Zone and an R-3 (Multiple Family Residential) P-C (Planned Community Overlay District) Zone in the Rhodes Ranch Master Planned Community.  Generally located on the east side of Fort Apache Road and the south side of Sherwood Greens Drive within Spring Valley and Enterprise.  SB/rk/xx  (For possible action) 10/07/14 PC

 

6.      VS-0694-14 – BLACK HORSE TRUST:

APPROVE vacation of patent easements located between Raven Avenue and Agate Avenue, and between Montessouri Street and Rosanna Street;

DENY vacation of right-of-way being Montessouri Street located between Raven Avenue and Agate Avenue;

Per staff conditions;

 

VACATE AND ABANDON easements of interest to Clark County located between Raven Avenue and Agate Avenue, and between Montessouri Street and Rosanna Street and a portion of a right-of-way being Montessouri Street located between Raven Avenue and Agate Avenue within Enterprise (description on file).  SB/co/xx  (For possible action) 10/07/14 PC

 

It is too early to vacate the Montessouri St. right-of-way.  The development pattern in the area cannot be determined at this time.  As a result, the right-of-way in the area should not be vacated. The Public Works Development Review did not account for the area development pattern.  Nor the possibility that future development contemplated by the applicant may result in a request to vacate parts of Rosanna St. and Agate Ave.  The TAB believes the Montessouri St. vacation, at this time, may lead to serious access problems for residents and county facilities as the area is developed.

 

The applicant is attempting to assemble a commercial parcel bounded by Blue Diamond Rd., Rainbow Blvd, Raven Ave, and Montessouri St.. The applicant currently has a land use request to change this property from RE to Commercial General in the Enterprise land use update.  One argument for the Commercial General is the property depth would allow big box retail to locate there.  Rosanna St. and Agate Ave. right-of-ways would bisect the proposed commercial property reducing the required property depth for big box commercial.  It is likely that a request to vacate sections of Rosanna St. and Agate Ave. would be made.  If approved, this would remove area access from Rainbow Blvd if Montessouri St. is vacated.

 

Other factors considered by the TAB are:

·   Current access to Agate Ave. from Rainbow Blvd. is Raven Ave. to Rosanna St. to Agate Ave.

·   Connecting Agate Ave. to Rainbow Blvd. is not practical.

·   The neighborhood access from Blue Diamond Rd. is limited.

·   Belcastro St. can access Agate Ave. but not Raven Ave.

·   Belcastro St. if built from Agate Ave. to Raven Ave. would bisect a county park reservation. 

·   The next north/south street along Blue Diamond Rd. is Tenaya Way.

 

The Montessouri St. vacation may lead to one north/south through road along Blue Diamond Rd. between Rainbow Blvd. to Tenaya Way.

 

7.      DR-0691-14 – STORYBOOK INVESTMENTS, LLC:

DENED per staff conditions – lot sizes too small.

 

DESIGN REVIEW for a single family residential development on 5.0 acres in an R-2 (Medium Density Residential) Zone.  Generally located on the south side of Cactus Avenue, 1,000 feet east of Durango Drive within Enterprise.  SB/al/xx  (For possible action) 10/08/14 BCC

 

This property is located outside the Las Vegas Valley disposal boundary. This limits the area development to a few privately owned properties.

 

The TAB had several objections to this design review. 

·   There is nothing exceptional about this project to warrant the max density allowed as required by the Enterprise Land Use Plan.

·   The TAB has consistently recommended R-2 lot sizes to be 4000 sq. ft. or greater lots to develop a more livable neighborhood.

·   Public facilities in this area are overloaded in this area.

·   Cactus is an arterial that will carry significant loads traffic when it is completed.

·   The TAB considers driveways along Gagnier Blvd, within 125 feet of Cactus Ave. (an arterial), that require the resident to back out to be safety hazard.

·   The project could be redesigned to take all access from Gagnier Blvd.

 

The development should also conform to the Mountain’s edge architectural color pallet.

 

8.      DR-0693-14 – NEVADA SENIOR HOLDINGS, LLC:

APPROVE per staff conditions

DESIGN REVIEW for the following:

 

1) Site lighting; and

2) Signage

 

in conjunction with an approved congregate care facility on a 3.2 acre portion of a 5.2 acre parcel in a C-2 (Commercial General) Zone in the MUD-4 Overlay District.  Generally located on the north side of Jeffreys Street/Ione Road, 500 feet west of Eastern Avenue within Enterprise (description on file).  SS/mk/ml (For possible action) 10/08/14 BCC

 

The applicant presented an excellent lighting plan.  The plan prevents light spill over into the residential neighborhood and provides attractive lighting on the property.

 

9.      VS-0262-12 (ET-0096-14) – WAL-MART REAL ESTATE BUSINESS TRUST:

APPROVE per staff conditions

 

VACATE AND ABANDON first extension of time to vacate easements of interest to Clark County located between Blue Diamond Road and Meranto Avenue and between Rainbow Boulevard and Montessouri Street, and a portion of right-of-way being Serene Avenue located between Rainbow Boulevard and Montessouri Street, and a portion of right-of-way being Rosanna Street located between Meranto Avenue and Blue Diamond Road in the Mountain’s Edge Master Planned Community within Enterprise (description on file).  SB/mc/xx (For possible action) 10/08/14 BCC

 

10.    TM-0141-14 - STORYBOOK INVESTMENTS, LLC:

DENED per staff conditions – lot sizes too small.

 

TENTATIVE MAP consisting of 40 single family residential lots and common lots on 5.0 acres in an R-2 (Medium Density Residential) Zone.  Generally located on the south side of Cactus Avenue, 1,000 feet east of Durango Drive within Enterprise.  SB/al/ml  (For possible action) 10/08/14 BCC

 

This property is located outside the Las Vegas Valley disposal boundary. This limits the area development to a few privately owned properties.

 

The TAB had several objections to this design review. 

·   There is nothing exceptional about this project to warrant the max density allowed as required by the Enterprise Land Use Plan.

·   The TAB considers driveways along Gagnier Blvd, within 125 feet of Cactus Ave. (an arterial), that require the resident to back out to be safety hazard.

·   The project could be redesigned to take all access from Gagnier Blvd.

 

The development should also conform to the Mountain’s edge architectural color pallet.

DESIGN REVIEW for a manufactured home sales and display lot.  Generally located on the south side of Wigwam Avenue, 430 feet east of Dean Martin Drive within Enterprise (description on file).  sb/pb/ml  (For possible action) 10/08/14 BCC

 

Other businesses along the west side of I-15 do not have a block wall.  They depend on their product being visible to passing vehicles.  This applicant wishes to do the same.  The applicant will provide landscaping along I-15.  The TAB suggested the use of 4/7 rock or larger to slow down any errant vehicles.

 

12.    ZC-0705-14 – MARCHOUD, HASSAN & LAMISE:

         APPROVE per staff conditions

 

ZONE CHANGE to reclassify 1.3 acres from R-E (Rural Estates Residential) Zone to M-D (Designed Manufacturing) Zone for future office warehouse development.  Generally located on the north side of Pyle Avenue, 500 feet east of Decatur Boulevard within Enterprise (description on file).  SB/al/xx  (For possible action) 10/08/14 BCC

 

The applicant has purchased this property to build a music studio and warehouse.  The staff has proposed a land use change to residential for this area.  The TAB has recommended BDRP.  Due to the land use uncertainty, the applicant wants to secure the zone district they need to establish their small business.

 

The TAB considered two factors, first this is a conforming zone change.  Second, this is an appropriate location for the proposed business.  We need to encourage more projects to establish small businesses.

 

13.    ZC-0707-14 – LONG TERM LAND HOLDINGS, INC; ET AL:

         APPROVE per staff conditions

 

ZONE CHANGE to reclassify 15.5 acres from R-E (Rural Estates Residential) Zone to an R-2 (Medium Density Residential) Zone for a single family residential development.  Generally located on the south side of Wigwam Avenue and the east and west sides of Torrey Pines Drive within Enterprise (description on file)  SB/rk/xx  (For possible action) 10/08/14 BCC

The applicant is approximately 90% finished.  The property now blends into the neighborhood where it did not before.  The date set by Current Planning would give the applicant approximately 9 ½ months to complete.  The TAB does not want to see this application back for another extension.  The TAB recommended the extension be set to July 3, 2016.
