1.       ZC-0489-16 –RONALD REISS TRUST:

Motion to:

APPROVED per staff conditions;

ADD Current planning condition:

·      Pole-mounted lighting to be on motion sensor and timer;

·      Generator testing between 8 am to 4 pm weekdays only;

Motion PASSED.

 

ZONE CHANGE to reclassify 2.1 acres from H-2 (General Highway Frontage) Zone to C-1 (Local Business) Zone for a proposed medical office building in an MUD-3 Overlay District.

 

WAIVERS OF DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS for the following: 

 

1) alternative landscaping;

2) access to a residential local street;

3) increase building height; and

4) non-standard improvements.

 

DESIGN REVIEWS for the following: 

 

1) a proposed medical office building;

2) a lighting plan; and

3) increased finished grade for a proposed medical office building. 

 

Generally located on the southeast corner of Blue Diamond Road and Mohawk Street within Enterprise (description on file).  SB/al/ml (For possible action)       BCC 9/7/16

 

The TAB considered this to be an excellent project both in design and use.

 

The applicant has created an excellent revision to their plan.  The revised plan is a better fit for the neighborhood.  The original plan was opposed by the Staff and some TAB members.  The application was held for three weeks while the applicant considered the TAB and Staff comments.  The TAB considered the following:

 

·   This is an infill project.

·   Drainage and natural grade make designing the project difficult.

·   The applicant has considered the adjacent neighbors in every aspect of the project.

·   This is essentially a weekday operation.

·   The overall building height was reduced by approximately 9 feet from the original design.

o        Reduction in pad height

o        Reduced second floor celling height

o        Moved mechanical equipment to the center of the building.

·   The highest fill height is along Blue Diamond Rd.

·   The building pad is lower that the surrounding homes.

·   All the lighting is shielded.

·   Diversifies the employment base in Enterprise.

·   Provides needed services.

 

The TAB recommends two additional conditions.  First, the pole-mounted lighting to use motion sensor and timers to reduce night time lighting adjacent to the residential.  The motion sensors provide an additional safety factor.  Second, the generator testing times should be restricted due to the adjacent residential.

 

2.       VS-0540-16 – LH VENTURES, LLC:

Motion to:

APPROVED per staff conditions;

CHANGE Public Works – Development Review bullet # 2 to read:

Right-of-way dedication to include 30 feet for Ford Avenue, 30 feet for Torino Avenue, 55 feet for Rainbow Boulevard, and associated spandrel;

Motion PASSED

 

VACATE AND ABANDON easements of interest to Clark County located between Ford Avenue and Torino Avenue (alignment), and between Rainbow Boulevard and Santa Margarita Street (alignment) within Enterprise (description on file).  SB/co/ml  (For possible action)                                                   PC 9/20/16

 

The dedication for Rainbow Blvd. should be 55 feet.  A previous dedication only required 50 feet not the 60 feet currently required.  5 feet is granted back to the applicant for a detached side walk.  The applicant requested the Public Works – Development Review bullet #2 to require a 55-foot dedication along Rainbow Blvd.  The TAB recommends the wording change.

WAIVER OF DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS for reduced setbacks in conjunction with an approved single family residential development on 1.3 acres in an R-2 (Medium Density Residential) Zone.  Generally located on the north side of Agate Avenue (alignment) and the west side Ullom Drive (alignment) within Enterprise.  SB/dg/mcb (For possible action)  PC 9/20/16

 

9.       ZC-1313-02 (ET-0108-16) – MESCOBI REVOCABLE FAMILY TRUST:

Motion to:

APPROVED per staff conditions;

CHANGE Current Planning Condition bullet # 1 to:

·     Until December 6, 2019 to complete.

ADD Current Planning Condition:

   Design Review as a public hearing for plans.

Motion PASSED

 

ZONE CHANGE SECOND EXTENSION OF TIME to reclassify a 2.0 acre site from R-E (Rural Estates  Residential) Zone to C-2 (General Commercial) P-C (Planned Community Overlay District) Zone in the Mountain’s Edge Master Planned Community.  Generally located on the west side of Rainbow Boulevard, 660 feet north of Cactus Avenue within Enterprise (description on file).  SB/rk/ml  (For possible action) BCC 9/21/16

 

The applicant position is Rainbow Blvd development has been delayed and the commercial market is depressed.  As a result, the applicant is requesting a six-year extension.

 

The TAB considered:

·  The original application was in 2002.

·  There has been one 6-year extension.

·  Rainbow Blvd. has not been completed adjacent to this property for several reasons.

·  Public works indicated that Rainbow Blvd., between Mountains Edge Pkwy. and Cactus Ave., will start paving work in September 2016.

·  Once Rainbow is paved, a commercial project should be able to proceed.

·  The TAB has observed a commercial revival in Enterprise.

 

The TAB opinion is a 3-year extension is more appropriate for this property.

 

10.     NZC-0560-13 (ET-0110-16) – GSQ TRUST, ET AL:

Motion to:

APPROVED per staff conditions;

ADD Current Planning Condition:

   Design Review as a public hearing for significant changes to plans.

Motion PASSED

 

ZONE CHANGE FIRST EXTENSION OF TIME to reclassify 5.2 acres from R-E (Rural Estates Residential) Zone and H-2 (General Highway Frontage) Zone to R-2 (Medium Density Residential) Zone in the MUD-3 Overlay District.

 

DESIGN REVIEW for a single family residential development.  Generally located on the north side of Serene Avenue and the east and west sides of Park Street within Enterprise (description on file).  sb/jvm/ml (For possible action)  BCC 9/21/16

 

This was a non-conforming zone change that was granted based upon the plans presented.  If the plans change, the reason for the non-conforming zone change may no longer be applicable.  The TAB requests a Current Planning condition be added for a design review as a public hearing for significant change to plans.

 

11.     DR-0514-16 – ST. SHARBEL MARONITE CATHOLIC TRUST:

15.     UC-0553-16 – SECTION E PARTNERS, LLC:

Motion to:

APPROVED per staff conditions;

ADD Current Planning Condition:

·    Automotive repair uses restricted to Pad A only;

·    Design Review as a public hearing for significant changes to plans;

Motion PASSED.

 

USE PERMITS for the following:

 

1) retail center;

2) convenience store;

3) reduce the setback from a convenience store to a residential use;

4) reduce the setback from a service station to a residential use;

5) reduce the separation from an automobile maintenance facility to a residential use; and

6) reduce the separation from an automobile repair facility to a residential use.

 

WAIVERS OF DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS for the following:

 

1) alternative street landscaping;

2) non-standard commercial driveway access and separations.

 

WAIVERS OF CONDITIONS of a zone change (ZC-0269-05) requiring a minimum 10-foot-wide landscaping along rights-of-way; and of a zone change (ZC-1584-98) requiring the following:

 

1) no loading areas adjacent to or visible from Ford Avenue;

2) no loading docks within 100 feet of a residential use

3) on-site lighting to consist of low-sodium, inward directed features to be included in each design review;

4) A-1 landscaping along all major street frontages;

5) B-2 landscaping along minor street frontages;

6) A-2 landscape buffer adjacent to any existing residential developments;

7) master studies to address the entire 91-acre development prior to the issuance of any permits or subdivision mapping, whichever occurs first; and

8) traffic study to evaluate the surrounding roadway network, including potential railroad/rail spur/roadway conflicts, the possible realignment of Jones Boulevard, and railroad crossing participation;

9) 30 feet for Ford Avenue west of Edmond Street and a portion of a knuckle at Edmond Street.

 

DESIGN REVIEW for a retail center with a convenience store, service station, and auto repair facility on 3.4 acres in an M-D (Designed Manufacturing) Zone in the MUD-3 Overlay District.

 

Generally located on the north side of Blue Diamond Road and the west side of Edmond Street within Enterprise.  SB/rk/raj  (For possible action)            BCC 9/21/16

 

The plan presented uses pads instead of inline buildings.  The TAB opinion is the pads create a better looking retail area.  The elevations presented are similar to the applicant’s other projects along Blue Diamond Rd.  This will provide an attractive design continuity in the area.

 

One TAB concern was the placement of automotive maintenance pad adjacent to Ford Ave. because there is residential planned north of Ford Ave.  The applicant agreed to move the automotive maintenance use to Pad A.  This was added as a condition by the TAB.

 

Due to the close proximity of planned residential, the TAB requests a condition for a Design Review as a public hearing for significant changes to plans.

 

The Waivers of Conditions are from previous approved applications, that are no longer appropriate.

 

The Staff conditions covers lighting, signage, and cross access.

 

16.     VS-0537-16 - MAULE JOAN TRUST, ET AL:

HELD by the applicant, indefinite hold

 

VACATE AND ABANDON easements of interest to Clark County located between Edmond Street (alignment) and Lindell Road (alignment), and between Pyle Avenue (alignment) and Bootlegger Avenue (alignment) within Enterprise (description on file).  SB/dg/xx  (For possible action)           BCC 9/21/16

 

17.     VS-0550-16 – SCHNIPPLE MARK A. TRUST:

APPROVED per staff conditions

 

VACATE AND ABANDON easements of interest to Clark County located between Agate Avenue and Oleta Avenue (alignment), and between Jones Boulevard and Duneville Street within Enterprise (description on file).  SB/rk/ml  (For possible action)   BCC 9/21/16

 

18.     VS-0552-16 - SECTION E PARTNERS, LLC:

APPROVED per staff conditions

 

VACATE AND ABANDON easements of interest to Clark County located between Blue Diamond Road and Ford Avenue, and between Mohawk Street and Edmond Street in an M-D (Designed Manufacturing) Zone in the MUD-3 Overlay District within Enterprise (description on file).  SB/mk/ml (For possible action)      BCC 9/21/16

 

19.     WS-0528-16 – MOUNTAINS EDGE MASTER ASSOCIATION:

DENIED

 

WAIVER OF DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS to appeal the administrative denial of an off-site improvement bond extension of time in conjunction with master planned community in an R-E (Rural Estates Residential) Zone; R-2 (Medium Density Residential) Zone; RUD (Residential Urban Density) Zone; H-2 (General Highway Frontage) Zone; C-1 (Local Business) Zone; C-2 (General Commercial) Zone; P-F (Public Facility) Zone; and all within a P-C (Planned Community Overlay District) Zone in the Mountain’s Edge Master Planned Community.  Generally located between Blue Diamond Road and Mountains Edge Parkway on Cimarron Road within Enterprise.  SB/rk/raj  (For possible action)   BCC 9/21/16

 

The TAB cannot support the extension of this bond.

 

The bonds were created to preform work under SID-142.  SID-142 has been problematic since its inception.  The SID was underfunded for several reasons.  The result is civil improvements that should have been finished between 2004 and 2006 are still not done.

 

The TAB noted that the administrative denial was over a year ago.  A year should be sufficient time to negotiate a settlement with the insurance company.  The bond has been extended 14 times since 2004, too many times.  This is not a good precedent to set for offsite improvements.

 

The residents of Mountains Edge deserve to have the civil improvements they were promised.  12 years is too long to get the job done. 

 

20.     WS-0529-16 – MOUNTAINS EDGE MASTER ASSOCIATION:

DENIED

 

WAIVER OF DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS to appeal the administrative denial of an off-site improvement bond extension of time in conjunction with master planned community in an R-1 (Single Family Residential) Zone; R-2 (Medium Density Residential) Zone; RUD (Residential Urban Density) Zone; R-3 (Multiple Family Residential) Zone; C-2 (General Commercial) Zone; P-F (Public Facility) Zone; and all within a P-C (Planned Community Overlay District) Zone in the Mountain’s Edge Master Planned Community.  Generally located between Durango Drive and Buffalo Drive on Mountains Edge Parkway within Enterprise.  SB/rk/raj  (For possible action)                             BCC 9/21/16

 

The TAB cannot support the extension of this bond.

 

The bonds were created to preform work under SID142.  SID 142 has been problematic since its inception.  The SID was underfunded for several reasons.  The result is civil improvements that should have been finished between 2004 and 2006 are still not done.

 

The TAB noted that the administrative denial was over a year ago.  A year should be sufficient time to negotiate a settlement with the insurance company.  The bond has been extended 11 times since 2004.  This is not a good precedent to set for offsite improvements.

 

The residents of Mountains Edge deserve to have the civil improvements they were promised.  12 years is too long to get the job done.

 

 

21.     WS-0551-16 – SCHNIPPLE MARK A. TRUST:

APPROVED per staff conditions

 

WAIVERS OF DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS for the following:

 

1) reduce setbacks (residence);

2) allow alternative screening (decorative block wall) in the front yard; and

3) reduce setback (decorative block wall) from a private street.

 

WAIVERS OF CONDITIONS of a zone change for the following:

 

1) a maximum of 22 lots with 2 other lots to be converted to open space;

2) common area with landscaping and meandering sidewalk per plans; and

3) right-of-way dedication of 30 feet for Agate Avenue.

 

DESIGN REVIEWS for the following:

 

1) a proposed single family residential development; and

2) increased finished grade on 2.5 acres in an R-2 (Medium Density Residential) Zone in the MUD-3 Overlay District.

 

Generally located on the south side of Agate Avenue, 330 feet west of Duneville Street within Enterprise.  SB/rk/raj  (For possible action) BCC 9/21/16

 

This is a well-designed project.  The slope is accommodated by terracing each lot and fill is only needed on the eastern lots. 

 

The Waivers of Conditions were attached to a Planned Unit Development (PUD) previously approved and are no longer needed.

 

The neighbors expressed two concerns with this project, area traffic flow and parking.  The vacation of local roads and the UPRR overpass construction has created an unacceptable traffic flow pattern in the area.  The access to this project is serpentine routing on public streets or through the PUD on private streets.

 

One solution is moving the Oleta alignment north on the BLM land.  This would allow area residents to connect to Jones Blvd. via Duneville St.

 

The other concern is parking. Currently Agate Ave. is used for parking by the PUD residents.  The PUD was designed with limited parking which has become a problem.  The applicant has provided two car garages and at least 16 ft. wide driveway.  The lots are wide enough to provide additional street parking spaces.  The applicant’s project will not add to the parking problem in the area.

 

The TAB is concerned with the right-of-way reduction on Agate Ave.  The 47-foot-wide right-of-way may not provide sufficient width to accommodate the PUD overflow parking.

 

22.     WS-0561-16 – UDDENBERG, RICHARD KEITH:

General Business

1.  Discuss and review a proposed Enterprise Land Use Vision Statement for possible inclusion in the Enterprise Land Use Annual Update.  No Vision Statement currently exists for Enterprise.  (For possible action) 

Proposed Enterprise Vision Statement

 

Enterprise is a mix of rural/suburban/urban areas offering diverse neighborhoods, lifestyles, small-to-large businesses, gaming, manufacturing, ethnicities, and recreational uses associated with a vibrant growing town. Housing options range from rural to high density.  Compatible employment zones will be encouraged with a special focus on logistics, light manufacturing and high technology.  Areas designated for such job creation should be protected from encroachment by uses which might limit their development.
