#29-90 RECOMMENDATION TO CITY COUNCIL REGARDING AMENDMENTS TO THE
HARMONY CORRIDOR PLAN AND DESIGN GUIDELINES.
Joe Frank, Assistant Planning Director, gave the staff
presentation. He stated that this item was presented to the
Planning and Zoning Board November 21st. At that time the plan
was not finished and not ready for adoption. At that meeting it
was recommended that the Board not make a decision, rather that
the Board take public testimony and continue the item until
tonights meeting for a decision.
The delay gave the public a few more weeks to review the report,
and one more opportunity to speak directly to the Planning and
Zoning Board. Second, it gave the citizens advisory committee
the opportunity to meet for the ninth time. Also, for the
Planning and Zoning Board to meet for the fourth time on the
changes. The delay gave both groups the opportunity to review,
discuss and respond to the letters and public comments that they
have received over the last three weeks. The three week delay,
gave staff the time it needed to finalize the details of the
recommendations.
Tonight, the work of the Advisory Committee and City Staff is
done. It is up to the Planning and Zoning Board to make their
recommendation to City Council.
Mr. Frank reviewed some important points in the report. First,
that the plan is about capturing opportunities for the entire
community. Its about improving our chance that the vision for
the corridor is a major employment center becomes a reality. The
plan is about providing flexibility for property owners to
develop their properties in a reasonable manner. Its about

#48-94 WUERRER RESIDENTIAL ADDITION - NCM SITE PLAN REVIEW.
Member Walker concern was the redevelopment of property within
the older neighborhoods. Member Walker wanted to address some
criteria in the LDGS, A-2.2 and the concern about the north
elevation of this project; and, A-2.7 the issue being size,
height, bulk and scale. Member Walker also had concerns with
A-2.12, and the setbacks being consistent with he surrounding
neighborhood.
Mike Ludwig, Project Planner responded that the property to the
south was a two-story building that was also 5 feet off the
property line. There was 10 feet of separation between the
Wuerker house and the house to the south. To the north, the
Wuerkers are proposing to reduce the setback from 19 feet from
the property line to 5 feet, however there is still 15 feet from
the property line to the neighbors house. There were not many
houses on the block that have more than 20 feet between them.
Planner Ludwig responded to Criteria A-2.2 and that staff felt
that the two-story was compatible with the other homes in the
area. They have met with an architect to come up with a design
that was compatible with the existing neighbors and the existing
architecture of the house. Staff felt that the proposed addition
would enhance the property.
Member Walker asked Planner Ludwig to point out on the slide the
outline of the proposed addition to the north, to get a feel for
the space it would occupy.
Planner Ludwig outlined the proposed addition and stated that the
proposed addition to the north would match the existing roof.
