> Subject: Development at 1305 Shields
> Dear Ms. Burnett,
> I am writing to inquire about the procedures that may be required by the City in regard to future
development proposals for 1305 Shields. Mainly, will the developer have to reinitiate all the steps of
the review process if demolition of the existing structures is approved by the LPC next wednesday.
Specifically, will there be another neighborhood meeting with staff prior to a meeting with staff,
neighbors and developer (the second requirement has not yet been fulfilled)? Will the plans be
conceptual only or will real plans need to be submitted for a meeting with neighbors, developer and
staff? At what point in the process are actual, achitectural plans required? Can you provide us with
the names of the planning staff assigned to the project and dates and times of public meetings
regarding the project? Finally, does the current zoning, NCB, still require review and/or approval for
deviations from the land use code by the Planning and Zoning Board? That is assuming that the
proposal is over 24 units.
> We are hoping that the developer will commit to a structure that is compatible in size, height and
scope to the surrounding (three sides) single family homes and the low rise (single story) commercial
buildings across Shields street, with natural buffer zones as have been described by planning staff in
public presentations and implemented in other developments throughout the city.

Thank you, Courtney. That is very helpful. Is the "last week of October" the week of the 29th?
Sandy Quackenbush and I will have to miss anything on the 24th to the 26th, but I'm sure there would
be other neighbors there to discuss the plans with Mr. Bailey on one of those three days. If the LPC
doesn't continue to find the property eligible.

Landmark Designation this Wednesday, then the applicant, Mr. Bailey, has indicated to me he would
like to continue moving forward in the process. This entails another neighborhood meeting, probably
scheduled for some time during the last week of October. You will receive a notification letter in the
mail from me letting you know the date, time and place of that neighborhood meeting about two
weeks prior to that neighborhood meeting. Formal plans are not required for a neighborhood meeting,
and he may just bring the same conceptual drawings to the future neighborhood meeting. The
purpose of the neighborhood meeting is for the citizens to identify, list and discuss issues related to
the development proposal with the applicant and to assist in seeking solutions for these issues.
Neighborhood meetings are held during the conceptual planning stage of the proposal so that
neighborhoods may give input on the proposal before time and effort have been expended by the
applicant to submit a formal development application to the City. Just as a point of information,
pursuant to Code, at least 10 calendar days have to pass between a neighborhood meeting and
when the developer formally submits an project application to the City.
> After at least 10 days, it is up to Mr. Bailey to formally submit an application. The project must
comply with all applicable general development standards located in Article 3 of the Land Use Code
as well as applicable standards of the Neighborhood Conservation Buffer section in Article 4. A
development review sign will be posted within 14 days of the project being submitted. That is your
visual cue to know that the project is still moving forward.
> The Planning and Zoning Board hearing is not scheduled at this time. Typically, the City Planner is
responsible for scheduling the project for hearing. Since no two projects are exactly alike, the point
when this project will be ready to be scheduled for hearing in unknown. I would extrapolate that
January 17th Planning and Zoning Board hearing would be the earliest, if Mr. Bailey were to submit
sometime in November. It may be likely that the January 17th hearing date is too aggressive with a
November submittal and a February or March date is more feasible. Again, you will receive a
