The parcel consists of approximately .75± acres located south and adjacent to Timberline Lane, and west and adjacent to Timberline Road. The site contains one mobile home with a detached garage. Staff has recommended approval on the basis that the request generally complies with the comprehensive plan (City Plan); the City Structure Plan, an element of the City's comprehensive plan; and, the Harmony Corridor Plan. Consistency with the comprehensive plan is legally sufficient for approval of the request; however, the Planning and Zoning Board found that the request does not satisfactorily address all of the additional considerations contained in Section 2.9.4(H)(3) of the Land Use Code. The Board determined that the request is not warranted by changed conditions within the neighborhood surrounding and including the subject property, and the proposed zone change is not compatible with existing and proposed land uses. On May 1, this item was postponed to this date and time at the request of the petitioner, J.D. Padilla. 28. Pulled Consent Items. 29. Other Business. 30. Adjournment. PAGE 9 be "in the public interest" and has been approved by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. The Company's offer is consistent with those made to adjacent landowners. An environmental assessment has been done for the proposed route. Ordinance No. 57, 2001, was adopted 6-1 on First Reading on April 17, 2001. After the First Reading of the Ordinance some concerns with the environmental assessment review process were brought to the Utilities attention. In response to those concerns, a few changes to the process were made. The assessment has been reviewed jointly by Utilities and Natural Resources staff. Staff believes the assessment was well done, but that some further clarity was needed on a few wildlife and re -vegetation issues. Wyoming Interstate Gas Company's (WIC) response indicates that the two species the City staff believed needed more discussion were not discussed because they are not present on City property along its proposed route. The WIC will be discussing seed mixes for re -vegetation with the City as part of the project and it is required to monitor the route for five years by the FERC project protocol. When the five-year period is over, certification that the re -vegetation has satisfactorily taken is required. As a result of the review process, a certified member of staff will be inspecting all stream crossings during and after construction to be sure they are satisfactory. A copy of the staff opinion and a copy of Wyoming Interstate Gas Company's response to the concerns raised have been included with this item. 26.

This Ordinance was adopted by a vote of 6-1, on First Reading on April 17, 2001.

In response to those concerns, a few changes to the process were made. The assessment has been reviewed jointly by Utilities and Natural Resources staff. In general, staff believes the assessment was very well done, but lacked detail in areas such as stream crossing specifications and re -vegetation issues. As a result of the review process a certified member of staff will be inspecting all stream crossings during and after construction to be sure they are satisfactory.
