Presentation: Amy Stonich, Senior Planner
The Zoning Administrator called the meeting to order.
Amy Stonich provided a presentation on the item and noted that there were three
letters submitted into the record noting traffic concerns in the area.
The Zoning Administrator inquired whether the Engineering/Traffic Division had
reviewed the demand analysis and had deemed it acceptable.
Amy Stonich responded that the parking analysis was acceptable.
The public hearing opened at 10:40 a.m.
The applicant, Dan MacLellan, spoke in favor of the proposed project. He
described the project proposal and the improvements which were being
completed at the site.
Salli Kosek spoke expressing concerns regarding traffic control in the area,
specifically for a nearby left-turn pocket. She is concerned that the proposed
use may increase the traffic impacts in the area and create a need for
increased traffic safety measures. Ms. Kosek requested: that the U-turn
capability be eliminated from the nearby left-turn lane; that on-street parking
along Treehaven Drive should be prohibited; and that one of the proposed
driveways should be removed from the applicant’s proposed plans.
Trissa Allen, of Linscott Law & Greenspan Engineers, spoke representing the
applicant. She stated that her firm, which completed the parking analysis for
the applicant, did not foresee a large or excessive trip generation occurring
based on the proposed use of the building.
The public hearing closed at 10:55 a.m.
The Zoning Administrator stated she would like to spend time reviewing the
proposed application along with addressing concerns raised from members of the
public.
