<br />¿f¿ -#- <br /> <br />. City Council - Consent Calendar <br />~ Building Permit and Inspection <br /> <br />COMMISSION QUESTIONS <br />Commissioner Radcliffe asked at one point would the units be going up for sale. <br /> <br />Ms. Ekas said that the process must be completed first. <br /> <br />Commissioner Cronin asked for an explanation of the terminology of "air space". <br /> <br />Ms. Ekas said the tenants would own right up to the paint, and the shared walls. <br /> <br />Commissioner Piulle asked if the common open space would be fenced in. <br /> <br />Ms. Ekas said no, this space would be tucked-in like a side yard. She said it was <br />not the applicant's intention to make this a neighborhood park. <br /> <br />OPEN PUBLIC HEARING <br />Ms. Helen Greave, residing adjacent to the subject property, asked if there will be <br />garages or just parking spaces in front of the units. <br /> <br />Ms. Ekas, said nothing is changing in the conversion. She said parking will <br />remain the same. <br /> <br />Ms. Greave asked about the demolition process, and the length of time it would <br />take. <br /> <br />Ms. Ekas said demolition can happen very quickly. <br /> <br />Ms. Greave expressed her concern regarding the "open space" and its <br />availability to just anyone to use it. <br /> <br />Ms. Ekas said the intention is that it will only be used by the residents of the <br />development. The intention of not fencing it, is because it is really attractive and <br />will have a nice solar access. She said if maintenance of the area becomes a <br />problem, the Homeowners Association could decide to put a fence in, with City <br />review of the fencing materials. <br /> <br />MIS: (Seybert/Cronin) to close the Public Hearing. <br />Motion Passed <br /> <br />DISCUSSION <br />Commissioner Claire asked what the rationale of the Planning Commission was <br />for eliminating the 9th Unit, and wondered if a variance could have been retained. <br /> <br />Page 6 of 10 <br />
