5.      DR-0868-14 – ROBINDALE ARVILLE, LLC:

         APPROVED per staff conditions and,

ADD Current Planning conditions:

   Design Review as a Public Hearing for Signage;

   Pole mounted parking lot lights to be shielded LED's with poles not to exceed 15 feet high.

 

DESIGN REVIEW for a commercial building within an existing shopping center on 2.5 acres in a C-1 (Local Business) Zone.  Generally located on the west side of Rainbow Boulevard, 140 feet north of Santoli Avenue within Enterprise.  SS/jt/ml  (For possible action) 12/17/14 BCC

 

This project completes a shopping area that has two pads current developed.  Signage was not included in the application.  The TAB has consistently requested a public design review for signage when not included in the application..

 

The TAB also conditioned the parking lot lighting.  The applicant offered to put in fully shielded LED lighting on 27 foot poles.  The TAB opinion is 15 ft. poles a better alternative adjacent to the resident to the west.  The fully shielded lighting next to residential uses has been a consistent TAB position.

 

6.        UC-0872-14 – COUNTY OF CLARK (AVIATION):

DENIED per staff “if approved” conditions

 

USE PERMIT to reduce the separation from a proposed financial services, specified (check cashing, deferred deposit, high interest loans, and vehicle title loans) business to an existing financial services, specified business in conjunction with an existing shopping center on a portion of 69.8 acres in a C-2 (General Commercial) (AE-60) Zone in the MUD-2 Overlay District.  Generally located on the north side of Blue Diamond Road, 700 feet west of Valley View Boulevard within Enterprise.  SB/dg/ml  (For possible action) 12/17/14 BCC

 

The TAB agrees with the Staff analysis for this application.  The current Title 30 criteria resulted from numerous discussions between the County, the check cashing industry and other stake holders. 

 

Also, noted by the TAB was the number of vacancies in this shopping center that would meet the required Title 30 separation criteria.  The alternate locations may not be as attractive to the applicant because they are not located adjacent to Blue Diamond Road.

 

The applicant suggested a condition to restrict the loan types being made as not to compete with the existing title loan company.  The use permit requested allows four loan types.  Any restriction on the loan types allowed by the use permit could not be enforced by the County.  

 

7.        UC-0890-14 – WHEELOCK FAMILY TRUST:

DENIED per staff “if approved” conditions

 

USE PERMITS for the following: 

 

1) Allow an accessory structure (storage building) prior to a principal structure; and

2) Allow alternative design standards

 

on 1.0 acre in an R-E (Rural Estates Residential) (RNP-I) Zone.  Generally located on the northwest corner of La Cienega Street and Wigwam Avenue within Enterprise. SS/gc/ml  (For possible action) 01/06/15 PC

 

The TAB agreed with the Staff analysis.  This proposed structure is too large (6400 sq. ft.) for the area.  It would be larger than most residence in the area.  The structures’ design with medal siding is not compatible with the residences in the neighborhood as stucco and title roofs are customary.  The applicant stated painting the proposed structure would make it compatible with the surround area.

 

The primary residence on the northern lot is approximately 1800 sq. ft.  The property already has two accessory structures which approach or exceed the allowed 900 sq. ft.  If the applicant combined his two properties, a waiver would still be required for any additional accessory structures.

 

Two abutting residents present were opposed to the proposed structure.

 

8.        VS-0906-14 – LEWIS INVESTMENT COMPANY NV, LLC:

APPROVED per staff conditions

 

VACATE AND ABANDON easements of interest to Clark County located between Edmond Street and Lindell Road and between Windmill Lane and Shelbourne Avenue, and a portion of right-of-way being Lindell Road located between Windmill Lane and Shelbourne Avenue, and a portion of Windmill Lane between Westwind Road and Edmond Street within Enterprise (description on file).  SB/co/ml  (For possible action) 01/06/15 PC

Two wall mounted signs were included in this application.  Any additional signs should be reviewed in a public hearing as they may effect nearby residential.

 

10.     TM-0201-14 – CFT LANDS, LLC:

DENIED: Density is too great for the area and does not match the surrounding neighborhood.

 

TENTATIVE MAP consisting of 18 single family residential lots on 2.5 acres in an R-2 (Medium Density Residential) Zone.  Generally located on the north side of Meranto Avenue, 280 feet east of Jones Boulevard within Enterprise.  SB/rk/ml  (For possible action) 01/07/15 BCC

 

The TAB recommendations on ZC-0912-14 negate the Tentative Map as presented.  The TAB recommends the Tentative Map be denied.  Below is a summary of TAB reasoning on ZC-0912-14.

 

Twenty seven residents from the surrounding community were strongly opposed to this application. 

 

Their community borders this project on three sides.  The residents are concerned with the following;

·   The proposed project is too dissimilar to complement their neighborhood.

·   They are concerned with the proposed building height (27 ft.).

o                                                              The potential loss of privacy.

o                                                              Not consistent with surround neighborhood

·   They specifically bought into the neighborhood for a single story product.

·   They are concerned with the increase load on the local schools.

·   They fell this project would degrade their neighborhood.

 

The TAB considered the following:

·   The R-2 zone district is a conforming zone change

·   A R-1 zone district recommendation is not appropriate due to the larger minimum lot size required in the R-1 zone district.

·   This application is an infill project which should complement the neighborhood.

·   The surrounding community was built by DR Horton.

·   Lot sizes in the DR Horton community surrounding this application range between 4700 sq. ft. to 6900 sq. ft.

·   The established DR Horton community is all single story homes.

·   Developer is dependent on cooperation with the adjacent HOA for drainage and sewer.

·   Additional fill maybe required, if the sewer is taken to Meranto Ave, further increasing the new home height.

 

The TAB opinion is this project as currently presented does complement the existing neighborhood.  This is a conforming zone change. The TAB recommended R-2 zone district approval with two additional conditions.

 

The TAB considered the lot sizes too small to blend with the surrounding community.  The TAB has consistently recommended lower project densities to decrease the load on public services. The TAB added a condition for the minimum lot size to be 4700 sq. ft. to match the smallest lot size in the surround neighborhood.  A second condition was added for all homes to be single story to match the surrounding community.

This is a well-designed project.  The TAB has a concern with the northern boundary.  The project has provided a 10 ft. landscape buffer along the northern border.  The adjacent homes are side loaded along the northern boundary with minimal setback from the property line.  The added a condition for 36 inch box trees to be use.  This should help proved a better buffer sooner.

 

Lighting and signage were not presented in the application.  With adjacent residential the TAB add a condition for a design review as a public hearing for the signage and lighting.
