She noted that staff recommended approval of the requested annexation and IL zoning district with a condition that a unified PUD Master Plan be submitted and approved by the Board prior to any development of the site. She stated that there was an additional staff memo to address the concerns expressed by the Board at worksession. It also suggested four options which could be considered by the Boa rd. Member Walker asked for a description of surrounding areas. Ms. Clark used the vicinity map to point out the surrounding areas and the zoning designation. She pointed out the residential area to the west and the location of the Poudre River. Eldon Ward represented the applicant. He stated that the site contained part of the Poudre River Floodplain. He believed that only half of the property was developable. The applicant would like some certainty of allowed uses. The applicant would like to have the option of the IL and IP zone process. It would respond better to the proposed uses. He noted projects in the area which did not have to go through the PUD process. He believed the condition needed further discussion. He said that a letter was sent to the Board which stated that a Master Plan was a good compromise. After review of the staff memo, the applicant still was unsure how detailed the condition should remain. Member Walker asked how the area near the Poudre River might be developed. P & Z Meeting Minutes - March 6, 1989 Page 8 Chairperson O'Dell asked if the Board could look at this at the regularly scheduled meeting in April. Mr. Peterson stated yes and that the Board could also schedule a worksession. Motion passed 6-1, Mr. Burns in the negative. Member Walker moved to recommend approval of the New Note Second Annexation to City Council. Member Groznik seconded the motion. Motion passed 7-0. Member Groznik moved to recommend approval of the New Note Second Zoning of IL to City Council with a PUD condition. Member Kern seconded the motion. Chairperson O'Dell thought the decision was based on the applicants belief that the PUD process was too lengthy. She would like the Board to develop guidelines for the entrances to the City. Member Groznik stated the applicant had indicated he would probably come before the Board with a PUD application as development occurs, so Member Groznik did not believe the PUD condition would burden the developer, hence his motion. Member Walker believed the issue was the appearance of the entryway and there was no other way to review this except a PUD. The Board was restricted to the recommendation. Member Edwards said the Board had expressed a desire to develop guidelines to expedite the matter so the developer would have direction as to how development along Harmony Road streetscape would occur in the entryway areas. Member Kern agreed that the Board desired attractive development in that area. Motion passed 6-1, Mr. Burns in the negative. 7-89 A - Koldeway Annexation and Zoning Member Kern moved to recommend approval to City Council of the Koldeway Annexation. Member Walker seconded the motion. Charles Dean, the applicant, stated he asked for BP zoning because he believed he was constrained with the PUD condition, and that it seems there was no real criteria under which applicants were judged. Ms. Clark gave a brief summary. She stated staff recommended approval with a BP zoning with no PUD condition on the zoning because the BP district only allows multi -family as uses -by -right. All other uses would develop as a PUD.
