712
Assistant Community Development Director Fitzgibbons outlined Petition 57-07 which proposes
an additional three-story building that will have the first and second floors for commercial use
and the third floor to include three dwelling units. The Planning and Development Commission
voted 4-0 for approval with conditions. Condition #8 states that ownership of the three dwelling
units would be retained by the developer and be used by the church. The developer has since
asked to have this removed so they have more flexibility with the units. It is staff’s
recommendation to approve the petition with all conditions. If it is the desire of the Council to
approve the petition excluding Condition #8, then staff is requesting that the issues regarding
parking, the common areas, and the homeowners/business association interaction be resolved.
Darien Slonniger, one of the pastors at West Ridge Community Church, thanked the Council and
staff for their cooperation with this project and gave a presentation on the project.
Councilmember Walters asked what the retained ownership condition would do in terms of the
City’s position. Assistant Community Development Director Fitzgibbons replied that if the
Council chose to modify Condition #8, then the issues regarding the floor plans and the owners’
associations need to be resolved.
No one else chose to speak, and Mayor Schock declared the public hearing closed.
