PUBLIC HEARING:
1. PUBLIC HEARING TO RECEIVE PUBLIC COMMENT ON A PROPOSED ZONING TEXT AMENDMENT TO TITLE 11, CHAPTER 11, ARTICLE C, COMMERCIAL RESIDENTIAL ZONE
BACKGROUND: John W. Hansen, Hansen & Associates, representing property owner Thomas Rosenberg, for property located at approximately 938 South 2000 East, had requested an amendment to timing requirements for commercial and residential construction. Mr. Hansen is in the middle of a rezone request for the property from Commercial (C-2) to Commercial Residential (C-R) and had previously explained his development timing and market conditions during a work session on Tuesday, November 25, 2015. After the discussion between the applicant and staff, it was determined that the Zoning Text Amendment was not the best way to accomplish the intended development. The applicant requested the application for a Zoning Text Amendment be pulled from the January Planning Commission meeting, and is preparing an alternate application for the property. Planning Commission opened the public hearing for public comment as noticed (although none was offered), and closed it afterward; however, no action was taken on the item based on the applicant?s request to remove the application from the agenda.
RECOMMENDATION: Open the Public Hearing and receive any public comment.
2. PUBLIC HEARING TO RECEIVE PUBLIC COMMENT REGARDING A ROAD DEDICATION PLAT
BACKGROUND: The request is for a street dedication plat for portions of 700 South and 1000 West.
RECOMMENDATION: Open the Public Hearing and receive public comment.
SCHEDULED ITEMS:
3. CITIZEN COMMENTS
4. CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A ROAD DEDICATION PLAT
BACKGROUND: The request is for a street dedication plat for portions of 700 South and 1000 West. The basic home siting plan in the building permit application did not accurately reflect the current shape and configuration of the lot; however, the parcel in question was nevertheless issued a building permit for the construction of a single family home. Further review of surveys and County records discovered that the subdivision which created this parcel was accomplished through Warranty Deeds recorded back in 2006 and 2007 and that the proper legal subdivision process as set forth in the Clearfield City Code was not followed. An illegal subdivision does not entitle the lots as ?buildable.? The Planning Commission reviewed this item during its meeting on Wednesday, January 7, 2015, and determined that the Road Dedication Plat as submitted by the applicant was not the proper approval mechanism to correct the illegal subdivision of land and accordingly recommended denial of the Road Dedication Plat.
RECOMMENDATION: Planning Commission recommends Denial of the request by Nick Mingo on behalf of Ivory Homes for a Road Dedication Plat to dedicate property along 700 South and 1000 West as public right-of-way located at 1039 West 700 South. Staff concurs with the Planning Commission?s recommendation to deny the road dedication plat as submitted due to the illegal subdivision which created the lot that needs to be corrected in order to entitle the parcel as a legal ?building lot? prior to approving further applications for this parcel.
5. CONSIDER APPROVAL OF REAPPOINTMENTS TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION
BACKGROUND: The terms for two members of the Planning Commission expire next month. The City Council conducted interviews with individuals as proposed by the Mayor prior to the Policy Session.
RECOMMENDATION: Approve and consent to the Mayor?s appointments to the Planning Commission and authorize the Mayor?s signature to any necessary documents.
