by 3 developers.
The developer position:
·
The proposed zoning
will maintain the areas rural nature.
·
The area has been
developed with more dense zoning approved on the properties to the north, south
and west of the project.
·
The development to
the west is zoned R-D - Suburban Estates Residential.

Spot zoning will chip
away at the RNP-1.
·
There are
insufficient county facilities to support increased density.
o
Roads are not
complete.
o
Schools are
overcrowded.
o
No community center
or senior center. There are no parks or swimming pools.

·
This item should
have been submitted for the Land Use Plan annual update.
·
The surrounding
properties have been developed per the established Land Use Plan.
·
The developed
properties immediately north and south are RNP-1 zoned and meet RNP-1
standards.

The applications UC-0022-17 and UC-0023-17 should be
considered as a single property. A
residence on both ANPs prevents the properties from being combined for a
residential boarding stable use. If the
properties were combined, all Title 30 requirements for a residential boarding
stable would be met.
The staff pointed out that this area is in transition. The nature of that transition is not evident
to the TAB. At some future point, the boarding stable may not be appropriate in
this location. Until then, there is a
need for places to rest horses in transit.
The TAB recommendation is the two applications should be approved.
Several topics were raised in the public discussion that
fall under a design review (lighting, waste container placement). The TAB was not able act on those items
because they were not included in the Use Permit application.

2)
reduce the separation from an on-premises consumption of alcohol establishment
(supper club) to a residential use.
DESIGN REVIEW for a hookah lounge and supper club within an existing shopping center on a portion of 3.5 acres in a C-2 (General Commercial) Zone in the MUD-2 Overlay District. Generally located on the north side of Bruner Avenue and the east side of Haven Street within Enterprise. SS/lm/ma (For possible action) 03/07/17 PC
The applicant desires to operate a supper club with a
hookah lounge. The applicant intends to
apply for on-premises consumption of alcohol with a full bar. The full bar requires 200 ft. separation from
residential which the staff recommended denial.
A Supper Club service bar in a C-2 zone does not require the 200 ft. separation. A further complication is a Dotty's Tavern is
in the same building which may cause a problem in obtaining a business license
for a full bar.
The staff is concerned with the proximity to a
residential development due to noise and the parking area located adjacent it
the residential use without a buffering building. However, Dottys use has not impacted the
residential.
The TAB recommends the use permit #2 be denied and in its
place a condition for a Supper Club service bar be added. This will eliminate the off-set requirement
and allow the applicant to serve alcohol with the meals.
It will take the applicant approximately six months to
open after approval. The TAB recommends
that applicant have of full year of operation prior to the review.

The area along Windmill Ln. between Las Vegas Blvd. to
Bermuda Rd. has been very slow to develop.
The applicant has already created graded pads, installed water and sewer connections. If this
project can proceed, it would help spur other development along Windmill Ln.
Windmill Ln. is built out to 6 lanes in this area which
is sufficient to accommodate the current and future traffic levels. The delay for remaining off-sites will not
impede the traffic flow.
The TAB opinion is the applicant should be given
additional time to attract businesses to their property.
