DESIGN REVIEW for a single family residential development on 37.5 acres in an R-E (Rural Estates Residential) (RNP-I) Zone.  Generally located on the east and west sides of Tenaya Way and the north and south sides of Ford Avenue within Enterprise.  SB/gc/ml  (For possible action) 08/04/15 PC

2.         TM-0143-14 (WC-0048-15) – CENTURY COMMUNITIES OF NEVADA, LLC:

WAIVER OF CONDITIONS of a tentative map requiring right-of-way dedication to include 45 feet to back of curb for Fort Apache Road in conjunction with 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/ml  (For possible action) 08/04/15 PC

 

DENY

Denied due to the denial for UC-0703-14 (WC-0047-15) – CENTURY COMMUNITIES OF NEVADA, LLC.  See UC-0703-14 (WC-0047-15) for TAB opinion.

 

3.         UC-0703-14 (WC-0047-15) – CENTURY COMMUNITIES OF NEVADA, LLC:

WAIVER OF CONDITIONS of a use permit requiring right-of-way dedication to include 45 feet to back of curb for Fort Apache Road in conjunction with 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/ml  (For possible action) 08/04/15 PC

 

DENY

The TAB has consistently recommended detached sidewalks along the arterials for pedestrian safety.  Over a number of years the Rhodes Ranch has refused to provide a pedestrian pathway to the three school site just south of their development.  The result is Fort Apache Road will be a primary route to the schools.  The TAB opinion is child safety must be the first consideration not the requirements set forth in an outdate Title 29.

 

Child and pedestrian safety must not be compromised for the sake of convenience.

The TAB agrees with the staff analysis that this project is too intense and not a good infill for the neighborhood.  An additional factor against the project is the excessive number of waivers required.  This is a good indicator that the project is not appropriate for the location.

DESIGN REVIEW for a hospital and medical/professional office development.  Generally located on the southeast corner of Blue Diamond Road and Decatur Boulevard within Enterprise (description on file).  SB/al/ml  (For possible action) 08/05/15 BCC

 

STRIKE Current Planning If Approved condition #1;

·         No resolution of intent and staff to prepare an ordinance to adopt the zoning

ADD Current Planning If Approved condition:

·         Resolution of intent to C-2;

STRIKE Current Planning If Approved condition #4'

ADD Public Works – Development Review conditions:

·         Sidewalk along Decatur to be detached;

·         The Ford / Decatur intersection to be a protected "T" intersection;

 

This is an excellent project for the area.  The TAB had two primary concerns with the project.  First, is the C-2 zoning on a small lot.  Second, the intersection development at Decatur Blvd and Ford Ave.

 

The TAB considered the following for the C-2 zoning:

·   Once established the C-2 zone district allows for very intense uses by right.

·   This property and the adjacent C-2 property are less than ½ of the normal greater than 10 acres for C-2.

·   Hospital use can be located in any zone district.

·   In C-1 zone district was examined.

·   In C-1 the proposed building height and some uses would require additional waivers.

·   Single family residential is adjacent to this project.

·   If this project does not go forward some other C-2 uses on the corner would not be appropriate.

·   A small section of the property is not being developed with this application.

·   The undeveloped section would be also be zone C-2.

 

The TAB opinion is C-2 zone district is the best suited for this project and should be granted as Resolution of Intent.  This allows the applicant to go forward with their project and all of the intended uses.  It would also protects the adjacent residential from other intense C-2 uses, if this project is not built.

 

The intersection of Decatur Blvd and Ford Ave is the second TAB concern.  The TAB recommendation considered the following:

·   The current configuration of the Ford Ave. and Decatur Blvd. intersection is traffic safety hazard. 

·   The usual configuration for Decatur Blvd. would place a center line barrier for 300 ft. south of Blue Diamond.

·   The center line barrier would make Ford Ave. at Decatur Blvd. a right-in and right-out intersection.

·   Several north/south alignments between Decatur Blvd and Arville St. have been vacated (Ullom Dr., Camron St., and Rogers St.).

·   To go south bound on Decatur Blvd. would require going east to Arville St., south on Arville St., west on Pebble Rd., then south on Decatur Blvd.  Approximately 1.5 miles

·   The resident in the adjacent neighborhood requested the left turn be provided at Ford Ave. and Decatur Blvd. intersection.

·   The applicant’s project would be better served with a left turn at Ford Ave. and Decatur Blvd. intersection

 

The TAB recommendation is to construct a Protected T Intersection at Ford Ave. and Decatur Blvd.  The Protected T Intersection would preserve the left turn at Ford Ave.  This would better serve the area residents and the applicant’s business. 

 

The TAB added a condition for detached sidewalk along Decatur Blvd.   This will set the precedent for Decatur Blvd south of Blue Diamond Rd. and provide additional pedestrian safety.

 

TAB comment:  Had the Ullom Dr. alignment been maintained the Protect T Intersection would not be necessary.  An alternate route south on Ullom to the Torino Ave alignment would have been possible.  This is another case of a local street being abandoned to create more houses with the resulting traffic problems later.
