MEMBERS PRESENT: Beth Koppes, Bob Brooks, Ann Freerks, Terry Smith, Wally Plahutnik
MEMBERS EXCUSED: Don Anciaux. Dean Shannon
STAFF PRESENT: Bob Miklo, Sunil Terdalkar, Mitch Behr
OTHERS PRESENT: Steve Gordon, Greg Van Dusseldorp
RECOMMENDATIONS TO CITY COUNCIL:
Recommended approval by a vote of 5-0, (Anciaux, Shannon absent) REZ06-00002, an amendment to a
conditional zoning agreement to remove the requirement for a 30-foot setback (Item 4.e) subject to
maintenance of the landscaped bed at the front of the lot and complete compliance with the landscape
plan approved as a requirement of the right-of-way vacation prior to the installation of any additional
parking or display areas within the 30-foot setback from Highway 1 for .63-acres of land located at
809-817 Highway 1 West.
CALL TO ORDER:
Brooks called the meeting to order at 7:34 pm.
PUBLIC DISCUSSION OF ANY ITEM NOT ON THE AGENDA:
There was none.
REZONING ITEMS:
REZ06-00002, discussion of an application submitted by Autohaus L TD for an amendment to a
Conditional Zoning Agreement (CZA) to remove the requirement for a 30-foot landscape setback from
Highway 1 for .63-acres of land located at 809-817 Highway 1 West. Miklo said the area was required to
be maintained as a landscaped or turf-grass area as part of a 2001 rezoning. Shortly after the rezoning
the City had vacated the frontage road and entered into an agreement with the applicant in which the City
would vacate the R-O-W and turn it over to the applicant. A condition of that agreement had been a
requirement for landscaping along the frontage as well as three small landscape islands that had
replaced a larger existing green swath. At the time of the vacation it had been thought that the
landscaping, which would be denser than just grass, would serve in lieu of the 30-foot setback. The
applicant was currently requesting to eliminate the requirement for a 30-foot setback from Highway 1 for
the Nissan portion of the property in order to allow more vehicle display area near the R-O-W. Similar
landscaping conditions had been placed upon other businesses fronting Highway 1. Miklo said Staff
recommended approval of the amendment to the CZA to remove the setback requirement. However, as
noted in the Staff Report, as part of the previous right-of-way vacation agreement there were four (4)
ornamental trees required in the larger parking lot which had not been planted yet. Miklo had spoken with
Julie Tallman and she had no recollection of a wavier for those trees so they would need to be planted
before any additional paving to the west was installed.
Public discussion was opened. There was none. Public discussion was closed.
Motion: Smith made a motion to approve REZ06-00002, an amendment to a Conditional Zoning
Agreement to remove the requirement for a 30-foot setback (Item 4.e) subject to maintenance of the
landscaped bed at the front of the lot and complete compliance with the landscape plan approved as a
requirement of the right-of-way vacation prior to the installation of any additional parking or display areas
within the 30-foot setback from Highway 1 for .63-acres of land located at 809-817 Highway 1 West.
Plahutnik seconded the motion.
The motion passed on a vote of 5-0 (Anciaux, Shannon absent).
