13:04:18 Okay, everybody, we can go ahead and get started. I think we're waiting for Ernest from Transportation and
13:04:23 Um, possibly some representatives from Parks and Rec, but we can… we can go ahead. This is our development facilitation team.
13:04:30 meetings, not a hearing, just, uh, a meeting between staff and applicants, trying to answer questions and move everybody forward towards
13:04:38 getting approved, and we'll start with, on the agenda, some of the decision cases, the formal site plan submittals that we had, and then we'll move on to our pre-application
13:04:48 Sketch Plan and Sketch Plats, and those are primarily for, um, advice and information to help you prepare for a formal submittal moving forward, whether that be a platting action or
13:04:59 site plan, or even, uh, just straight to building permit.
13:05:03 So, let us know, uh, along the way. Um, I'm not sure if we have any of the cases that are gonna be, um, ready for, uh, approval, but
13:05:13 We'll be able to identify exactly
13:05:16 What's missing are items, more information that we may need, and we don't have a meeting next week, so we'll be able to continue working through, um, some of the applicants today through next week to get that formal approval and kind of go from there.
13:05:28 So, as we move forward, just let us know if there's any questions.
13:05:32 Um, the first case is PR…
13:05:36 2022006960.
13:05:40 And that's for 6501 Indian School Road, and we had…
13:05:45 had a plotting action for this project earlier today as well, but it's for the development of multi-family residential along with
13:05:52 The transit station there, so do we have the applicant team or anybody available for that one?
13:05:59 Hi, yes, Robert, Jessica Wallace and Rebecca Shank with Decker here.
13:06:02 Hello, how's it going? Um…
13:06:05 Good, good. So, do you guys kind of want to walk us through the project and give us…
13:06:04 Good, how are you? I'm good.
13:06:10 Kinda, any… any and all info.
13:06:13 Yes, so we have a little presentation, if we could share… our screen.
13:06:17 Yes, let me… yep, let me go in there and give you those privileges. Let me just find everybody's name on here, give me one quick second.
13:06:51 I found Rebecca's, I'm looking for the… any other names on there, or is that fine?
13:06:58 Okay, sounds good. Yeah, go… you guys go ahead.
13:06:57 I think Rebecca's fine. Uh, yep, just mine.
13:07:08 Yes, yes.
13:07:06 Alright, can you all see that? Okay, great. Well, uh, we are very excited to be here with you this morning. Um, this is a very exciting project called Uptown Connect that has been a long time in the making. It's been a several-year process.
13:07:22 Uh, for us to get to this major milestone. So, um… Gonna move through a couple of slides here, so just to orient you on, uh, location, so our site is generally bounded by Uptown Boulevard to the north, Indian School.
13:07:37 Uh, Road to the south, and then American Parkway to the west in Indian Street to… Uh, the East, there is an existing transit.
13:07:50 Uh, station located on the site currently. You can see the kind of transit infrastructure, um, in the middle of the site there.
13:07:59 Next slide, please. Uh, and, uh, in terms of our project, so we're located at 2121 Indian School, and a portion of 6501 Indian School.
13:08:09 Our zoning is MXH. Um, I did mention that this is the existing Uptown Transit Center, but this is really a re-envisioning of that and a celebration of the Transit Center. So this is.
13:08:21 Um, a very exciting product, unlike anywhere else, I think, in the city of Albuquerque currently. It's proposed to be a mixed-use.
13:08:30 uh, facility, it's going to have 239 units located within 2 towers that we're calling both, uh, North.
13:08:38 tower and the plaza tower, so that's about 150,000 residential square feet. There's another 15,000 square feet of residential… of retail located on the ground floor.
13:08:49 Um, the transit infrastructure is staying in place, along with a number of.
13:08:54 public amenities, and we have 211 parking spaces currently located on the site.
13:09:01 Um, and that does take advantage of the reductions for both the proximity to the transit use, which is very much integrated into this site, as well as some EV parking.
13:09:12 Uh, availability. So, in terms of the site plan, and you're gonna have to adjust your head slightly as you're looking at this, so what is on the east portion of the screen is actually north on the site, so that is what we're calling.
13:09:26 Uh, the North Tower, uh, what is on the west side of the screen is what we're calling the Plaza Tower, so those are, uh, the residential kind of mixed-use tower components, as you see.
13:09:39 There is a number of retail and office spaces that's happening on the ground floor directly. Uh, there is some surface parking that's kind of incorporated into the North Tower itself, and.
13:09:52 Uh, there's one level of underground parking that is happening along the entirety of the extent that we're viewing here.
13:10:01 Uh, I mentioned that this really is intended to be a celebration of the transit that exists on the site, so the… there are two existing… or there are two reconfigured.
13:10:13 transit lanes that remain. Uh, one is kind of dissecting the two towers there right in the middle of the site. That's what we're calling the north bus lane.
13:10:20 And then there's an additional south bus lane on the very western extent of what you're… it's really the southern portion of the site, but the western… the left side of the screen that we're looking at.
13:10:33 Um, and then there's a number of amenities associated with the site on the ground floor, a public plaza, a dog park, um, some community spaces, and six.
13:10:45 bus stops. So, some specifics on the North Tower itself, it's about 190,000 square feet. This.
13:10:54 This tower contains 217 units over 6 stories. Um, I mentioned that there's one level of underground parking, as well as some ground floor parking.
13:11:04 Uh, you can see the ramp on the bottom of the screen, um, there that would provide the egress and ingress to the parking, um.
13:11:13 That is currently low, or that is proposed to be located under this tower, um, and the uses on this particular building include, um, multi-family units above.
13:11:25 a number of ground floor, uh, retail, and then… Uh, I think that's it on this one.
13:11:32 Yes. And then the second component of this. Uh, project is what we're referring to as the Plaza Tower, so that's 28,000 square feet.
13:11:42 Uh, about 22 units, uh, 5-story structure, um, again, it has the underground parking component on this one, and this one also includes, or at least the extent of this that we're viewing shows a little bit more detail on both of those bus lanes.
13:11:58 the North and the South, as well as a lot of the both transit and kind of tenant amenities. So, you'll see the plaza component there.
13:12:07 Um, there's a bit of a kind of community retail building that is intended to have.
13:12:13 Um, a kind of membership dog. Um, park model, um, uh, as well as some outdoor recreation spaces associated with that.
13:12:25 Um, and then there's a number of designated, uh, transit stops in, uh.
13:12:30 The extent of this kind of public space around the Plaza Tower as well.
13:12:36 Uh, a couple of… we've… we received numerous comments from the DFT that we'll, um, continue to work with staff through, but two that we just wanted to highlight, specifically in terms of compliance with the various landscape coverages and street trees.
13:12:54 Uh, the total net lot area requirement for the site is 10%, and as indicated on the landscape sheet, we are above that, um, barely, but we did make it. It's 10.5% of, um, total net landscape area provided.
13:13:10 And then similarly, with the street trees, I know staff had some concern about, um, what the street tree requirements were. This information and these calculations, again, is indicated on the landscape plan.
13:13:22 We are required to provide 39, um, street trees, and there are a total of 40 trees, uh, provided on site.
13:13:34 And then, um, one item that we… Probably need a little bit of coordination, um, and direction from you all, Robert, on is the parking, um.
13:13:47 compliance and what is being considered a parking structure on this particular site.
13:13:52 Uh, in reviewing the definitions of a parking structure, our intent, or our assumption that's always been that the underground.
13:14:02 portion of the site is what the parking structure is, so there's one level. Um, there is… about 28 spaces that are contained on the ground level that are tucked within the building. Um, those are separate from the structure, um, so I think some clarification from staff.
13:14:20 on what the requirements are for compliance with, um, articulation on those facades would be appreciated.
13:14:30 And then, uh, this is just an overview to your earlier point, that there is a kind of concurrent lotline adjustment that is, um, going through the DHO process right now. You can see the implications of that.
13:14:43 on the screen, it's about .45 acres, um, and we're actively working with the DHO. They did conditionally approve that item this morning, and will continue to work through those conditions, um, to get that approval and, um.
13:14:57 alignment, or, you know, in parallel with this process.
13:15:02 And with that, I think we will stand for discussion and questions. Um, this project is very complex, so we… anticipate there will be.
13:15:11 Plenty of conversation.
13:15:13 Yeah, it's a huge project. It looks… looks really nice. Is it in phases, or are you doing the entire, um, site plan all as one, and then… I think the…
13:15:22 southern portion of the lot is where the credit union is, right? And that's going away?
13:15:34 Oh, okay.
13:15:28 Um, at the… at this point in time, the credit union is… staying there they are, uh, uh, so there's the site plan shows some reconfiguration of their site in, uh, alignment with what is happening on the lot line adjustment.
13:15:45 Um, but this site plan does not contain plans for the rebuildment of that site at this time.
13:15:52 Okay, sounds good. And we can look at the facade definitions and also the parking garage definitions. I think originally the IDO had a parking garage as just
13:16:01 just a parking garage. That was its only use, and then as it's been updated over the last few years, it's
13:16:07 It's transitioned a little bit with, you know, different developments like this that have the underground parking and things like that, but there hasn't been many of them, so we'll…
13:16:14 coordinate between you guys and code enforcement, and make sure that there's an understanding so we can help move you forward.
13:16:22 Anybody else have anything, or…?
13:16:22 Right.
13:16:26 I had a question.
13:16:24 Any questions? If not, we can move on to kind of the review comments.
13:16:29 And let me ask you a question real quick. If you could go back to that, the…
13:16:28 Ah.
13:16:31 Yes, sir.
13:16:32 exhibit there that showed the tower structure.
13:16:41 This one right here, if you could…
13:16:43 No, the other one, the… well, this one, too.
13:16:40 Which style or shop would you like to see the plaza to, or the…
13:16:46 Because I noticed there are some doors that are opening upwards.
13:16:50 over the sidewall.
13:16:52 Sorry. Yes, we did… we did get that comment, and I think in… for most of the door conditions, we can easily address that by just adjusting the doors.
13:17:08 Okay.
13:17:05 to open inward rather than outward, um, if that is acceptable to staff.
13:17:10 There is one instance in particular where, yeah, that Rebecca's… kind of highlighting on the screen there currently, where, um, that is not feasible with the current configuration of the stairwell, so I think that is one item where we'll need to circle back with the design team and modify, I think, the configuration of the stairwell to, um, reduce that conflict, or the encroachment.
13:17:35 And my other thing was, like, have you guys… I noticed that…
13:17:40 we have the entrances, like, to the parking structure,
13:17:44 that, uh, we have, like, walls all going all the way to the corners. I mean, have we looked at the clear site distance, and also for pedestrian safety?
13:17:52 Because, uh, you almost have to pull over the sidewalk in order to
13:17:57 be able to get out, or be able to have a good visible
13:18:02 Uh, because usually at the entrances, we angle those entrances, so…
13:18:06 we would have, like, a clear sight distance, so we'll be able to see the pedestrian crossings, or bicyclists on a sidewalk or something.
13:18:14 Have you guys looked at that at all?
13:18:17 Yeah, the site plan does indicate the clear site triangles, and we are, I believe, in compli… I'm pretty positive that we're in compliance, but we can definitely circle back.
13:18:31 Bye.
13:18:29 Yeah, if you could look at that for… because they usually clear side distance is just specifically for, for, uh, vehicles in the street.
13:18:36 But I was, like, more concerned about the pedestrian or bicycles on the sidewalk, because
13:18:42 Your walls go all the way up to the sidewalk, right?
13:18:46 Well, the sidewalk is… so there's a landscape kind of component, a landscape area between the sidewalk and the edge of the building, so that hatched area is landscape area.
13:18:57 And then the white space is what the… where the extent of the sidewalk is.
13:19:00 Okay, so yeah, if you have that buffer for all the entrances, I think that'll definitely help.
13:19:07 Perfect. Okay, great. That's all I had, thanks.
13:19:07 Yeah. Great.
13:19:09 And we are just… we solved the issue with the transformer location, right?
13:19:13 It's like, it's embedded into the building. Okay, perfect.
13:19:16 Alright, no, that's all I had, thanks.
13:19:15 Yes. Yes. Yeah.
13:19:19 And all of the infrastructures, from our understanding, is tied to the site plan, the platting, and the vacation was completely separate, right?
13:19:26 Okay, sounds good. Well, why don't we start with the in…
13:19:30 Go ahead, I'm sorry.
13:19:25 Yes, that's correct. There is… sorry. We do have various members of our design team, including Ian, um, from Isaacson and Arfman, who can kind of help answer any questions on the sales side as well.
13:19:41 Sure, sure. Do they have anything to add? Anything they wanted to discuss?
13:19:46 Uh, hi there, no, uh, I think we're good with this. I know we did or were concerned with the.
13:19:51 clear sight triangles, and we… Made the effort to, you know, make sure the building was not.
13:19:56 encroaching into those, like, triangles, but, um, yeah, if anything else, we can weigh into.
13:20:02 Sounds good, sounds good. We'll start with Water Authority. Mr. King, what do you got for us?
13:20:08 Good afternoon, uh, Bob Kane with the Water Authority. Um, we had a couple of informational comments. We had no objection to the site plan.
13:20:15 We were just curious of the work performed under a city public work order. It didn't show up in any of our.
13:20:22 documentation, um, David Gutierre said has addressed that at DHO.
13:20:27 Um, the other comment is just related to. water and sewer accounts. We have different, um.
13:20:34 billing rates for different type of uses. So we'd have to have those separate and established prior to plat approval.
13:20:41 And that's all we had. Do you have any questions?
13:20:44 At this point?
13:20:46 Uh, no questions, but for clarity, uh. We… we have not submitted our public work order at this time just yet.
13:20:53 We have requested that, um… Uh… project number?
13:20:58 And we've had included that in some of the site utility, um, I think, plans we've submitted.
13:21:04 With the site plan. Um, but yeah, that public work order has not been submitted.
13:21:09 Just yet, it's… it's in progress, um, but we will submit it shortly, or soon.
13:21:16 Yep.
13:21:20 Alright, we can jump around a little bit, and I apologize if I go out of order. Jay's out of the office today, so I'm trying to be Jay Jr., so…
13:21:26 I'm going around, so we'll jump to hydrology.
13:21:32 Yes.
13:21:32 Already? Can you hear me okay?
13:21:37 So, where's the transformer? We started talking about the transformer, where's that transformer gonna be?
13:21:43 It's, uh, along the… kind of in the northeast corner, you can zoom in, it's… It's right there, you're kind of right on it, actually.
13:21:58 Okay. I see the T. Put the T on it.
13:21:58 It's probably just north… Yeah, just north of the entry.
13:22:01 Okay. Okay. Um… the underground parking structure, I'm gonna be looking for things.
13:22:10 Like… Related to the storm event, right? The 100-year flood event, so I'm gonna be looking… To see how you're gonna deal with, um, any water that might go in there.
13:22:19 Are you guys gonna have any kind of a pumping system or something, or…
13:22:22 Yes, there'll be a pump system, uh, it's planned in the underground structure, and I know our plumbing.
13:22:26 Okay. Oh, good.
13:22:32 Good deal. Okay, so yeah, one of the things that we want to make sure is, um.
13:22:29 The team is kind of manning that effort.
13:22:37 Anything that's going to be below the base foot elevation, um… Anything important is not in there, like the transformer, right? We don't want anything below base elevation, so you can use it for access and storage and parking and all that good stuff, that's all.
13:22:49 That's all good and well. Just make sure you don't have any critical.
13:22:53 Um, fire alarm equipment, you know, anything… anything important in there that could get flooded out.
13:22:58 Right, so just make sure what you do locate in that underground part is nothing critical that's going to fail.
13:23:05 you know, during the flood event. Let's see… Go ahead.
13:23:07 Um, I do think there is some, uh, equipment planned on there. I think there's a brewery planned in that middle plaza area.
13:23:17 Mike, I'm… am I speaking correctly to that?
13:23:20 Sure, Anthony, hi, this is Mike Tatter with Deckard Design on the architecture team.
13:23:24 Yeah.
13:23:25 Regarding your question about, uh, infrastructure in the garage, we currently have some electrical panels associated with the
13:23:32 residential tower located there. Are you suggesting that that would not be allowed, that we need to move those up?
13:23:38 Yeah, so imagine if that thing goes underwater, what's gonna happen?
13:23:41 Sure.
13:23:42 Yeah, they had that same promo there, Knob Hill, they're trying to put an underground parking under the new hotel.
13:23:51 Okay.
13:23:47 And they had, like, transformers and stuff down in there, and it's like, you can't have nothing important down there. The only thing you could have are vehicles, because they can get out, right, if this 100-year storm comes, people can drive their vehicles out.
13:23:58 Um, access, right? So people, you know, to get into the building, you can walk in and walk out, that's not a big deal.
13:24:05 Um, and storage, right? You can store stuff in there, equipment or whatever, but if we're gonna get that 100-year event, you should be able to get your equipment out.
13:24:12 You know, you should be able to safely be able to get stuff out. Now, a brewery filled with people, that's probably not gonna… fly in anything important that's electronic, electrical, that's controlling anything important, it's probably not gonna fly.
13:24:23 You gotta think it's gonna be underwater. You gotta anticipate.
13:24:30 Sure.
13:24:26 this thing is below base. You're underground, so it's gonna… it might be underwater.
13:24:32 And you guys have a… you're aware of the Special Flight Hazard area to the south, so… It's not that far-fetched, you know?
13:24:38 Sure. Um…
13:24:40 So, but those are my comments. We have… we have an approved conceptual, I'm cool with that.
13:24:43 And of course, we're going to have to see the more detailed grade and drainage plans and all that good stuff. We don't… I don't have any… we don't have any objection to your site plan. It's looking pretty good now. I just wanted to give you guys a heads up on those things, because.
13:24:54 Um, they will come up at some point, so this is the… This is the conversation, this is the place to have that conversation, so…
13:25:06 Oh, okay.
13:25:01 And Anthony, just to clarify, the brewery is on the ground level, not within… garage. So there are, other than parking, and it sounds like some utilities, which we.
13:25:13 We'll maybe have to work through. Um, there is no users in the basement other than… cars.
13:25:17 Perfect. But yeah. Yeah, that's kind of a, you know, anytime you're going underground, you gotta start thinking about flooding, but that's… that's good, you guys are on it.
13:25:26 And that's all we had. All we had.
13:25:26 Anthony… Anthony, can I ask just a couple follow-up? Uh, we do have some other significant items, electrical items, uh,
13:25:33 in the garage. We have, for instance, elevators that go down to the garage level. We have electric vehicle parking, uh,
13:25:40 electric vehicle chargers there. We also have some, uh, equipment that's supporting some of the amenities, like the pool pump, like the
13:25:47 pumps for the pool… for the pool on the… on the pool deck.
13:25:50 Uh, would those things be allowed in the garage?
13:25:55 I… I think so, because, right, you… The elevator, obviously, you're gonna have to have.
13:26:01 Elevators and stuff, and uh… stuff for the pool. Um, it doesn't sound like it's that critical for, like.
13:26:06 It's not correct.
13:26:07 fire alarms and things like that, you know what I mean?
13:26:09 Okay.
13:26:10 Um, just… just… I just wanted to throw it out there so you guys are thinking about it, that way you're considering… you're gonna have stuff in there, but we just want to make sure it's nothing that's going to get flooded out that's gonna.
13:26:22 Sure, no, I hear you.
13:26:22 cause other… other issues. Um, all the EV charging stuff, you know, there's breakers, there's electrical code that takes care of a lot of that stuff, so… Not too concerned about that. I'm concerned with things that are, like.
13:26:32 Mm-hmm. Right.
13:26:32 a transformer, you know? things that are definitely not gonna do well underwater, you know.
13:26:38 Gotcha, gotcha. Okay.
13:26:40 Thank you.
13:26:41 Yeah. Cool. That's all I got.
13:26:45 Thank you, appreciate it, and we can move over to transportation. I think it's earnest.
13:26:51 It's me, Sir Jim.
13:26:52 Oh, thanks, Artil.
13:26:54 Yeah, transportation has approved conceptual DCL.
13:26:59 Dated November 6, 2025.
13:27:02 And GIS, not required.
13:27:05 As a reminder, an approved full TCL will be required.
13:27:10 Prior to building permit.
13:27:13 Transportation has no objection to this request.
13:27:19 Sounds good. You guys have any questions?
13:27:23 We can jump over to Parks and Rec. I'm not sure if they have anyone here, or if Anthony will be reading those. Is anybody from Parks here?
13:27:36 Looks like a no, so…
13:27:38 Anthony, do you have those handy?
13:27:41 Okay, thank you.
13:27:40 I do. So, Park's comment is in regards to the street frontage landscaping plan that meets the requirements.
13:27:49 of 56D. Street trees are generally required along street frontages at 25 feet on center.
13:27:55 If the requirements cannot be met, an alternative landscaping plan,
13:27:59 that meets the intent, uh, must be submitted.
13:28:02 And she provide… Bonnie Strange provided you the contact information.
13:28:07 So if you would like to reach out to her,
13:28:09 In regards to that,
13:28:11 She'll be able to help you. I do have one comment.
13:28:15 along with that, um…
13:28:17 The landscape plan… here, if I could share my screen real quick…
13:28:27 In regards to this, can you guys see my screen?
13:28:34 Yes, we sure can.
13:28:35 Okay. So, the lands, um, I think a lot of the landscape comments
13:28:41 are because there was no quantities provided
13:28:45 Nor any detail of where they were going, like, which ones were specifically counting towards the trees.
13:28:52 And, um, so without the…
13:28:55 quantities, we can't really see the canopy math, or…
13:28:58 any of the requirements that go along with landscaping?
13:29:10 And… go ahead, I'm sorry.
13:29:11 Um… Can we… so the… the calculations are… there's a section on… On calculations, but just so that I am understanding the comment correctly, you're wanting an itemized list of.
13:29:03 That's all I have.
13:29:28 There's no quantities.
13:29:25 each of the species. Which I believe… Okay. Yeah.
13:29:30 So you have this size, you have what the mature height and the mature diameter,
13:29:33 Yeah.
13:29:35 But there's no way to tell, because I don't know what the quantities are.
13:29:41 And I… and then also…
13:29:41 Yeah.
13:29:44 This says, uh, form-based zones,
13:29:48 And this is MXH, so I also…
13:29:52 There is also an area on another sheet that said something like what was assumed… oh, wait, right here.
13:29:58 Like, it's assumptive…
13:30:00 assumed what they'll be, like…
13:30:02 So if you have the quantities, then we can do the canopy math to get to…
13:30:07 Make sure that you have the right coverage. There's no way to do that at this current time.
13:30:13 And it's not form-based, although I believe the net lot area was correct.
13:30:19 Yeah. We'll make that adjustment to the language to verify the MXH zoning, and then, um, we'll ensure that we.
13:30:27 Uh, make revisions to this plant legend to show the quantities and reflect the tree coverage.
13:30:34 Calculations specifically within our. Uh, firm. I don't… within a requirement.
13:30:41 Okay, thank you.
13:30:40 calculation section.
13:30:44 I'll stop sharing.
13:30:45 And we'll… that sounds good. We'll go to Code. Jacob has the code enforcement comments.
13:30:50 Yeah, good afternoon, this is Jacob speaking on behalf of Code Enforcement.
13:30:56 So, not to beat a dead horse or anything, but it looks like Jeff also had comments regarding the landscaping.
13:31:02 Um, more specifically, providing some calculations.
13:31:07 Um… for the usable open space.
13:31:11 And then… providing a note.
13:31:14 uh, showing that you are…
13:31:16 Providing one tree per ground floor dwelling unit.
13:31:20 As per IDEO…
13:31:24 4-3-beat.
13:31:25 8B.
13:31:28 And that…
13:31:28 So there are no ground floor dwelling units, so that, um, standard is actually not applicable in this instance.
13:31:35 Okay, um…
13:31:39 Provide a note showing how you are meeting tree type requirements of IDO43
13:31:46 B8D.
13:31:49 Uh, so it looks like he's just looking for a couple of notes added, really.
13:31:54 for the one tree per ground floor dwelling unit, you can just…
13:32:00 scratch that out.
13:32:02 And then, um, the other big thing is the site lighting requirements.
13:32:08 Um…
13:32:09 He put in some information related to the lighting correlated color temperatures and the color rendering index.
13:32:18 per IDO58E2.
13:32:22 Um…
13:32:23 CCT cannot exceed 3,000K
13:32:27 and CRI must exceed 65, not likely a problem.
13:32:31 For these fixtures. I'm just kind of going off of his notes here, um, so…
13:32:36 I apologize if it's not the…
13:32:39 the best. Um…
13:32:41 And then, uh, looks like he needs some clarification on the light trespass.
13:32:48 sort of clarifying, basically, where at the property line that light is.
13:32:54 being read. Uh, so please clarify the location of property line and the light readings.
13:33:00 If exceeding, lighting must be corrected as per IDO 58F4C.
13:33:07 And then code enforcement has no further comments.
13:33:13 And then if you needed any specific detail from code, I added, uh, Jeff and his team's contact information in the chat there for you, so in case there's any follow-up that you guys needed.
13:33:22 Um, and from there, we'll jump to Anthony. She had planning comments, and some of it are overlapping, but she was able to really do a deep dive on it and kind of identify some things that
13:33:32 some information that we'll need in revisions in order to get you guys approved and move it forward, so…
13:33:39 Go ahead, Anthony.
13:33:41 Okay, so I'm not going to go over landscape again, just update the landscape plan, please.
13:33:47 Um…
13:33:50 Just give me one second as I scroll through.
13:33:52 And then Shahab addressed the encroachments, um…
13:33:56 Do have a question about the window canopies, like, how far out they're protruding.
13:34:01 Um, it's kind of hard to tell from the elevation sheets, like,
13:34:04 what the vertical, like, projections are.
13:34:09 Like, how far out on the vertical that…
13:34:11 the buildings are coming forth.
13:34:16 Anthony, I'll just comment on that quickly.
13:34:18 Our intent is not to have any encroachment beyond the property line, so we will, uh, verify that and provide you some better
13:34:27 details, uh, sections, et cetera, that will help you to see that we're within the property line.
13:34:32 Alright, I appreciate that.
13:34:32 So we'll include that. Sure, thank you.
13:34:35 Thank you, Michael. Um…
13:34:39 So far, like, when I was checking your parking calculations, everything appears to be good.
13:34:44 Um, I will take the questions regarding the parking structure to our zoning meeting.
13:34:50 that we have weekly, because I do have…
13:34:52 Um, some question about…
13:34:54 There's one section under, uh, 55G4 where it states that the ground floor street-facing facade of the parking structure
13:35:03 shall have a minimum ground floor, clear height of 10 feet for a depth of at least 30 feet from the property line.
13:35:10 And I want to make sure that this is being met and…
13:35:14 Um, and it's in regards to being in a premium transit area, so I do believe that this applies.
13:35:20 So you'll have to show that if it… if it in fact does, um…
13:35:25 For the depth of 30 feet from the property line abutting the street,
13:35:28 to allow for conversion to a pedestrian-oriented use when the market supports that use, which, by these definitions, I believe this is applicable.
13:35:37 So you'll have to show how you're meeting that.
13:35:41 Um…
13:35:43 And just one clarification on that is just a measurement.
13:35:47 Would that suffice in terms of compliance on the sheets?
13:35:51 Correct, just showing that 30 feet from the
13:35:53 Yeah, we're at about 13 feet, I believe, from the ground level to the.
13:36:01 to the second floor, so the gray area indicated.
13:36:05 on the elevation that is about approximately 13 feet.
13:36:10 Okay, so it's saying that 30 feet from the property line, that's the part where it's… and saying anything…
13:36:17 Where it's entering, I believe, the parking structure, 30 feet from the property line for a depth of 10 feet, so…
13:36:23 30 feet in, 10 feet up,
13:36:25 Can't have… it has to be…
13:36:28 clear.
13:36:30 Nice.
13:36:31 So, I will take that to our zoning meeting for some clarification, and I will get back to you on the parking structure, okay?
13:36:39 And I think, generally, it'll be
13:36:38 Okay, great, thank you.
13:36:41 You'll want to add the measurement, of course, and then if there's any reference similar to, um, the facade requirements that we'll mention here. If there's any
13:36:50 specific notes that you can add, whether that's similar to, like, platting notes that you would add on a plat, or just call-outs on, like, on the elevation page, or… or… or site plan page, or anything that kind of
13:37:02 points us in the direction of exactly how it's meeting a particular standard that's called out, especially when it's in a center or corridor like that.
13:37:10 Thank you, Robert. We'll make sure that. consideration.
13:37:11 Uh-huh.
13:37:14 And that'll help speed you up on the building permit side as well.
13:37:18 Yeah.
13:37:23 Um, as far as facade designs, um,
13:37:26 Here's a few areas that I need to check still, um…
13:37:30 To make sure that they're meeting. You guys provided the letters,
13:37:34 I believe that there's some areas
13:37:37 like, on the sheet that's being shown,
13:37:40 I think it's 68 feet right there, where you don't have any color change or any variation.
13:37:47 And I think that the feet…
13:37:48 is actually less where you have to have a color change, so there's a few things I still need to check.
13:37:53 and verify. Um…
13:37:56 that was kind of what I was asking, like, if you guys could call out.
13:37:59 Like, how you're meeting the elevations, like, all the criteria for that.
13:38:07 And then one other thing I had noted that, uh…
13:38:10 Your infrastructure, um, list is
13:38:13 on an old sheet, it's on DRB, so if you guys could get… just place your infrastructure sheet…
13:38:19 On the one for DFT, and I provided you the link for that.
13:38:25 And then… oh, and in the future, uh, for DFT, just make sure you upload your signposting agreement with the photos of the signs posted. I don't believe I saw those, but…
13:38:35 Um, other than that…
13:38:38 I'm willing to work with you guys, um, over the course of next week as well, to, like, help you guys if you guys have any questions, and…
13:38:44 to move you forward in your projects, so feel free to reach out and…
13:38:48 I'm sure I'll be sending you some emails as well.
13:38:52 Thank you, I appreciate that, coordination, and you will be hearing from us.
13:38:57 And any revisions you can kind of touch base with, um, you know, the various sections and team members to verify that that's what they need, and then you can upload it into ABQ Plan, and
13:39:06 Of course, send us the copy and we can add it to an internal file that way, and just… that way we can double-check that we have everything to move it forward.
13:39:21 Thank you, ma'am.
13:39:17 And today, I appreciate your comments. I… should we then expect, uh, some follow-up from you this week after you've had a chance to do a more thorough, uh, review of the elevations?
13:39:25 I know you just got that update yesterday, so…
13:39:29 Okay. Okay.
13:39:29 Yes, I will provide that for you, and I will provide you some information regarding the parking structure as soon as I have that.
13:39:35 Great, thank you very much, appreciate it.
13:39:40 Anything else from your team, guys?
13:39:44 I don't think so, unless, Ian, you have something to add.
13:39:48 Uh, just related to that infrastructure list, we'll get that correct form over to you, Anthony.
13:39:56 Sounds good. It's gonna be a really nice project. You guys, for such a big project, it's fairly close, just a matter of getting everything finalized and…
13:40:03 revised and I's dotted, T's crossed, all that sort of thing.
13:40:10 Oh, thing.
13:40:14 Mm-hmm. No, it's a… it's a…
13:40:08 Yeah, well, shout out to Mike and his team for… A year of effort to get us here, so…
13:40:18 cooperative effort, mostly from folks outside of our team, so thank you all to the city for helping us along.
13:40:20 Yep.
13:40:26 Thank you, we appreciate it.
13:40:28 What we're gonna go ahead and move on to item number 2, which is…
13:40:26 Yep.
13:40:32 Excuse me, PR2025.
13:40:35 020137.
13:40:37 And that's 10120 Coors Boulevard.
13:40:40 And, um, Penny, is your team still here?
13:40:46 Yes, I am here. Can you see me?
13:40:50 Yes, yes, we see over there.
13:40:51 Okay, sorry, I'm, um…
13:40:52 That's okay.
13:40:54 So, my project is pretty much the opposite of what was just presented. It's a small, um, uh…
13:41:01 intimate, um, what's gonna be a shopping center, but it's significantly smaller than what was just presented.
13:41:09 Um, we're incorporating this, the three buildings, into the landscape, and they step down.
13:41:15 Um, we did do a PRT review, and, um, went back and, and…
13:41:21 finish the design according to our comments for that PRT review. So, um, let me know what you'd like to start with, and I will tackle that.
13:41:30 Can I share my screen? Let's see…
13:41:33 Yes, let me make you a co-host real quick.
13:41:34 Okay.
13:41:39 Okay, go ahead and share.
13:41:41 Okay, I think I am, am I? Can you see this?
13:41:42 Okay. Yes, yes.
13:41:44 Okay, um, so tell me where to start, and I'll walk you through what we've done, and I'm…
13:41:49 I do have some questions for some of the comment… comments.
13:41:54 That is up to you. What we'll do, just kind of walk us through the, you know, the different project, the area, that sort of thing, and then we'll go through the staff comments that you've received, and, um, kind of some Q&A there to make sure you understand all the comments and, you know, any information that we still need to get you moving forward.
13:42:08 Okay, perfect, thanks. So, um, you know, we presented this to PRT and moved forward based on those comments.
13:42:14 It looks like I have just a, um, just based on my…
13:42:17 the comments I received yesterday, we may have… we only have one more major… not major, but we have that lighting, um, from Jeff, and the rest, I believe we've already tackled, I just probably need to get that information to you, so…
13:42:30 Um, this is approximately a 17,000 square foot, uh, new build project. It's, um, located in between
13:42:39 Um, Hong Kong Buffet and Panda Express off, of course in Alameda.
13:42:44 Um, we have 3 buildings that are dropping down, starting from the north, going to the south.
13:42:51 Um, and they just kind of descend into it, hoping to integrate it into the property.
13:42:58 Uh, let's see… I did a view plane analysis for, um…
13:43:06 Yes.
13:43:03 For Jeff, I think it's Jeff? I've actually worked with him, and I forgot his name. Jeff!
13:43:08 So here's our viewpoint analysis, and I submitted it, and I know that I need to submit… it's currently under review for building permit, and I'll get this to him.
13:43:16 We don't, um… we're well below the markers that are identified in the IDO for, you know, the top of all of the buildings, and he can see that.
13:43:26 Um, and I'll make sure I submit these viewpoint analysis to him.
13:43:31 Um, and so that's kind of addressing his… his, uh…
13:43:37 the elevation marker on number 4 for the, uh, the code analysis, and I'll make sure I get that in to him.
13:43:46 Uh…
13:43:52 Okay.
13:43:47 I guess maybe some guidance on what else you guys want to see. The big person that I would like to talk to, and she may not be here, is, uh…
13:43:57 The Parks and Rec, because I think we've addressed everything, I just want to make sure we're all on the same page.
13:44:05 Thank you.
13:44:02 Okay. They're not here right now, but they did provide comments, so we'll go through those, and then we'll probably do some contact information in case you need some verification, because they review some of the, of course, the street tree ordinance, and
13:44:13 And someone on landscaping and so does code enforcement and planning, and I know in the front there, you have some
13:44:21 Um, different things with utilities and NMDOT and that sort of thing. So we can start with the staff comments and kind of just go from there. We'll start with the water authority.
13:44:30 Okay, that sounds good.
13:44:30 Oh, hold on one second. Robin has a question.
13:44:36 Oop, you're muted, sorry.
13:44:38 Yep, I just let Hannah in from Park, so I think she's here.
13:44:40 Oh, she did, okay, she's there. Cool. Yeah.
13:44:41 Oh, yay! She's the one that I was hoping to be here. Okay, that sounds good.
13:44:43 Okay, good. Good. Well, we'll start with, uh, Bob Kane from Water Authority and go from there.
13:44:49 Hello, Bob Kane with the Water Authority. Um, we issued a water and sewer availability statement.
13:44:54 Number 250306. Which provides for routine connections.
13:45:00 Um, in… as part of that statement, we require a.
13:45:03 service connection agreement. Um, so if you read that statement, you'll be able to.
13:45:08 Uh, get all the specifics on that. We also have a 24-inch sanitary sewer line.
13:45:13 that runs along Coors. And so we need to make sure that we locate that in the field.
13:45:19 Using the New Mexico 811. Um, and provide, uh, any easements that are necessary.
13:45:26 I don't know if it's actually on the property.
13:45:28 Um, but we need to find out for sure.
13:45:30 So if it is on the property, then we'll need to make sure we have a.
13:45:34 20… 20-foot easement, public sewer easement, which we will… conditions on what can be.
13:45:42 placed within that easement. So…
13:45:43 Okay. Um, I… I, um, talked to our civil engineer, who's not here today, but, um, but he… we did already locate those. We called, um, NM811, and everything's been located.
13:45:54 He said that, um, the site survey with the utilities
13:45:59 It's already been approved, because we've… we submitted this for building permit, and it's already been, um, approved through your process.
13:46:07 He said, there's no public utility extensions and no utility easements needed on this property.
13:46:14 Okay, thank you.
13:46:13 So, thank you very much, then.
13:46:16 Um, as far as the connection agreement, Scott is our civil engineer, and he's…
13:46:23 Under the impression that our, our, um, the plumbing contractor would take that agreement. I did talk to Galveston this morning, and Galveston is thinking that the civil engineer
13:46:34 would take that, and I was asked to get clarification from you on who you want to take that… who you want taking out that agreement. Do you want the civil engineer or the plumbing contractor?
13:46:45 Um, typically that is… I think we're talking about two different things.
13:46:49 Once an actual connection permit that the plumber would typically do.
13:46:52 Mm-hmm.
13:46:53 What we're talking about is a, um… service connection agreement.
13:46:59 So, that is something that's separate from the actual.
13:47:03 connection permit. So if, um, just go ahead and we'll get off and offline. We can be able to discuss that.
13:47:09 Um, if you could just give David Gutierrez a call.
13:47:11 And we can, um, explain that to you, the process involved.
13:47:15 Okay, perfect. That sounds good. I think that's the only comment we have, so we've addressed the 8-11, everything's been identified.
13:47:21 And the utility plan was already approved, so we're good there. And I will call David, um, probably after this meeting.
13:47:29 Sounds good. And then we just may need some extra verification on some of the sheets, because we… the building permit review that you, you know, submitted at the same time is completely separate, so some of the engineers will see the similar forms, but the site plan submittal is completely separated, so that's why some of the
13:47:48 Okay.
13:47:46 Stuff will need extra verification. But we'll jump over to hydrology.
13:47:57 Uh, so we have an approved grain and drainage plan.
13:48:00 Uh, for this, and we don't really have any objections to the site plan stuff, so that's… It's looking like it's moving in the right direction on our side.
13:48:09 Sounds good. Did you have any questions on the gradient drainage or anything, Penny?
13:48:13 Nope, I think we're set. We've worked with AMAFCA, you know, we use the PRT comments and addressed everything, so thank you.
13:48:19 Okay, sounds good, and we'll go over to transportation. Thank you, Anthony.
13:48:21 deal. Yep.
13:48:25 This partition has approved TCL dated June 30, 2025.
13:48:31 And transportation has no objection.
13:48:35 Thank you, sir, too. Appreciate it. And then a follow-up on that, the city engineer had questions about the communication that you had with NMDOT and the, um, sidewalks that are either existing there or required.
13:48:47 Okay.
13:48:52 And painting it… I know that that was for you, I'm sorry.
13:48:54 Oh, okay, um, okay, so what… so what is the question? Are you just asking? The sidewalk is, um… it's outside of our easement, it's in the cores, and there's no, um, agreements or anything that need to be put in place. It's included in the infrastructure list.
13:49:10 And, um, the owners intend to build it, and, um, yeah, so just, uh, the term…
13:49:16 infrastructure list was included, and so there's no agreements or anything that need to be put in place.
13:49:21 Sounds good. And you already… you already, um, finished the discussion with NMDOT, right?
13:49:27 Okay.
13:49:26 Yes, Margaret signed off on it, uh, the civil engineer put the infrastructure list together, so we're squared away on all of that.
13:49:33 Okay. Sounds good, thank you. Thank you, Zertil.
13:49:36 Thank you.
13:49:36 Let's go… Hannah, for Parks and Rec comments.
13:49:39 All right.
13:49:40 Good afternoon, this is Hannah Shea with Parks and Recreation.
13:49:45 Um, so we did have… One comment from, uh, open space.
13:49:52 And a few from, um… City forestry on the case.
13:49:58 And now it seems like, uh, Open Space has requested that.
13:50:02 All landscaping within 330 feet of major public open space remains native or naturalized vegetation.
13:50:09 Consistent with the surrounding environment. Um, that needs to be confirmed.
13:50:15 Also, city forestry has commented on. some of the tree species.
13:50:21 That are not acceptable, or not locally available at nurseries.
13:50:27 Um, to our knowledge, and… They have also required that you provide a street tree calculations, a launch course.
13:50:36 Boulevard. And… let me check, um… We're here, um… I apologize.
13:50:55 Yes. I think that's… that was pretty much… because I'm checking our memo to make sure that we covered everything.
13:51:02 That was pretty much open space and city forestry were the most important comments that you had, so if you can confirm those.
13:51:09 Um, if it could provide it in, you know, just in response to the memos.
13:51:15 Um, it could be written… Uh, but also let us know if you have any questions, if you need to know the native, uh, shrubs of the area.
13:51:25 We could provide you a list. Um… Yes.
13:51:31 Okay, so, um, I wasn't able to… my landscape drawing because it's…
13:51:36 giant, and so it was crashing my computer.
13:51:39 Yeah.
13:51:39 I did send that comment to my… the landscape architect. Um, are these comments based on her drawing, or are they just general
13:51:46 comments that are saying, hey, confirm that you're using the right plants. Um, that way I can clarify for her.
13:51:54 I think that city forestry comments are based off your current plan that you have submitted.
13:51:59 Okay. Okay, perfect.
13:52:01 Uh, for open space, um, I am not sure, because their comments came in pretty late today, so I didn't confirm this with them. I assume they have checked your plan and make those comments, but, um… If you have used native plants, then excellent. We could just say, yes, everything is native, and we're good to go.
13:52:21 If not, um, and if you have any questions on those species, just let us know.
13:52:25 Okay, that sounds good. I will confirm, I just wanted to make sure I understand the request, and I'm pretty sure, you know, the, um, we barely clip… this is the part of the property that clips that open space, and
13:52:38 Yeah.
13:52:38 Um, I'll confirm it, but I'm pretty sure we meet all that. That's 47 feet right there, that's our property line, and I looked it up, and we need to be 45 feet. So, um…
13:52:47 This was, once again, just based off of our PRT review, and so we tried to meet all those requirements. But I will circle back and make sure they're okay with that.
13:52:55 Wonderful. Thank you so much.
13:52:59 Thanks, Hannah, appreciate it. And, uh, next up, Jacob actually has code enforcement comments and planning comments.
13:53:04 Okay.
13:53:05 Yeah, good afternoon, this is Jacob. Uh, I'm gonna start with Code Enforcement comments, and then I'll kind of just roll into planning comments.
13:53:12 Um, if you have a question, feel free to…
13:53:15 stop me at any point.
13:53:20 So I'll start off with parking.
13:53:23 Looks like Jeff is just asking for a little bit more clarification on the tenants, if you have it.
13:53:30 Because there is different parking calculations for different types of tenants.
13:53:35 If you know what they are, we would like that to be shown. If not, it looks like we can just use the Office General Retail as the…
13:53:42 parking standard. Um, so I don't know if that actually will change anything or not, but…
13:53:48 Um, if you do know who…
13:53:51 may have already been kind of slotted for these spaces, that would help, kind of,
13:53:56 clear that up for Jeff.
13:53:59 Do you want me to comment as you go, or just wait till you're done?
13:54:05 Okay.
13:54:02 Uh, if you want to, like I said, feel free to jump in. Um, just keep in mind, uh, I… I am not with code enforcement.
13:54:10 Well, some of that might be…
13:54:12 better to ask Jeff directly.
13:54:14 Okay, so I'll just quickly say we don't have tenants, this is a shell. These are all shells, but we are… we did go in as a B occupancy, and I based it off of that 3.5 parking spaces per thousand square feet. We need 60.2…
13:54:28 And we're providing 127 spaces. I will update the drawing, and that's… that's fine. I'll just change this. This is what it looks like on the drawing.
13:54:39 Okay. Perfect.
13:54:39 Perfect, yeah, adding a note would help a lot.
13:54:41 Okay.
13:54:42 Thank you.
13:54:43 Yeah, and like you said, kind of at the beginning, most of what I'm going to be covering here is small stuff, with the exception of the lighting plan.
13:54:50 So, a lot of little notes and stuff here and there.
13:54:52 Okay.
13:54:55 Um, speaking on the lighting plan, um, must provide lighting detail sheets and photometric site plan, showing how the project will be in compliance with 5-8 outdoor and site lighting.
13:55:07 The key details being the lighting fixture detail sheets, confirming cutoff angle,
13:55:13 correlated color temperature and the coloring rendering index for all fixtures.
13:55:17 And then the photometric site plan, um, showing light trespass as measured at the property line.
13:55:23 Okay.
13:55:24 Um, what I can do for you is I can send over previously approved
13:55:28 lighting plans that you can use as a…
13:55:31 kind of a guide.
13:55:32 Perfect. That would be great, thank you.
13:55:39 I think we already covered number 4.
13:55:43 Uh, walls must be submitted separately for permit, but should be shown on these plans. They must meet requirements of IDO Section 57, walls and fences.
13:55:52 Okay. Um, I've got the walls here, there are… they're… these aren't the sealed ones, but they're sealed by our structural engineer, and, um, they're shown on the site plan. They're also shown on the, um, civil engineering plan.
13:56:06 So they… they… they meet that requirement of being shown on there, and I guess I'll just submit these as a separate, uh,
13:56:14 As a separate permit, I didn't realize that the retaining walls would count as a wall, so I'll take care of that.
13:56:20 Okay, perfect. Yeah, and that's actually…
13:56:23 pretty much what we need right there.
13:56:25 Okay.
13:56:26 And with the walls and some of the signage, um, you can also keep the information general,
13:56:41 Hmm…
13:56:32 Um, so that way, code enforcement doesn't… if it's… if it's too specific sometimes, and there's a change that you didn't anticipate, code may require an amendment to the site plan, and so, um, you know, you can work with Jeff as far as what information
13:56:44 that he would like to see on the site plan, or what type of note he would like to see, and then, you know, handle everything else at the permitting stage.
13:56:55 Yeah.
13:56:50 Okay, that's perfect, yeah. So, like I said, these are being per… it's in the permit stage, we just have the DFT to tackle, so… Okay, I'll give Jeff a call.
13:57:01 Uh, and then Jeff just has one more comment related to the signs, just saying that the signs must be submitted separately for permit.
13:57:08 But do not have to be shown on the plans. They must meet requirements of IDO Section 512 signs.
13:57:14 And CPO2 cores overlay zone.
13:57:18 Okay, and we don't have a sign at this time. We're gonna tackle that after we get this building up and running.
13:57:22 Cool. Uh, and that concludes comments for, uh, code enforcement, so now I'm gonna kinda…
13:57:28 shift over to the planning comments. Do you have any
13:57:32 Final questions for code?
13:57:34 Uh, not at this time.
13:57:36 Excellent. Um…
13:57:41 So, I do have a… another note that's fairly important for the site lighting plan.
13:57:47 So, as per 5-2J1D,
13:57:52 Um, in the IDO, it's under the Major Public Open Space Edges.
13:57:58 Okay.
13:57:58 Uh, regardless of zone district, the lighting designation shall be no higher than LZ1.
13:58:04 And shall we shall be subject to outdoor lighting curfew.
13:58:09 Okay.
13:58:09 to protect the natural ecosystems and their biodiversity.
13:58:11 Okay, and did I get that comment? I didn't print it. It's possible I… we, um, can you send that to me again, or post it somewhere where I can find it? Because I didn't see that comment.
13:58:21 Yeah, um, so this will be under Plannings…
13:58:25 Okay.
13:58:24 comments, um, I can definitely send you a…
13:58:28 version of my memo.
13:58:29 Perfect.
13:58:32 Um, going a little bit more into parking and loading, uh, it looks like all of your…
13:58:39 parking calculations meet as per, uh, kind of what we talked about with
13:58:45 Uh, going off of the office and general retail calcs. However, uh, the only thing I saw was in relation to motorcycle parking.
13:58:53 Mm-hmm.
13:58:54 Between 51 and 100 off-street parking spaces requires 3 motorcycle parking spaces, and I only saw 2.
13:59:02 Okay.
13:59:02 outlined. Um, so fairly minor, but…
13:59:05 Looks like we need one more motorcycle parking space.
13:59:08 Okay?
13:59:11 And then… I had a good chunk of…
13:59:16 comments related to landscaping, but they all revolve around just basically showing the calculations.
13:59:22 Um…
13:59:24 you can kind of work with, uh…
13:59:27 forestry and parks and Rec for, like, the tree species, but when it comes to just, kind of,
13:59:33 showing it on the site plan, we're just looking for those calculations kind of outlined as to how exactly they're meeting the requirements.
13:59:39 Okay, and I'm sorry, I tried to open it, and it crashed my computer, so I had to make the decision on whether I wanted to see the site plan or the landscape. So, um, what I'll
13:59:49 But I think I'm gonna do is have the landscape architect reach out, because she's the one that'll make those decisions, and…
13:59:55 Um, if you're okay with that, I'll just have, uh, Jill reach out with… to you guys.
14:00:00 Yeah, that's okay.
14:00:02 Okay.
14:00:04 Still have a few more here.
14:00:06 Okay.
14:00:08 Uh, we kind of talked about the retaining wall already, so don't worry about that.
14:00:12 Uh, site lighting…
14:00:15 Uh, it looks like we need just a little bit more on your building design, as far as, like, the facades.
14:00:21 So, uh, we're kind of looking…
14:00:24 for you kind of showing how you're meeting it.
14:00:28 So the ground floor of each street-facing facade shall contain a minimum of 20% of its surfaces and transparent windows and or doors.
14:00:36 Show detail on the elevation sheet showing compliance.
14:00:40 It looks like you're meeting it off of a glance.
14:00:43 But we're kind of looking for that little, uh, confirmation showing this is our actual
14:00:48 You know, um…
14:00:51 This is our facade, uh, size. Here's our… how we're meeting that 20%.
14:01:04 That's okay.
14:00:57 Okay, okay. I might call you later on that one. I'll probably be… I have another meeting after this, so it'll probably be tomorrow, and… would it be okay if I add it to this sheet right here? This, um, this elevation, or do you want it on the viewplane sheet?
14:01:13 Um, I'm thinking on the elevation sheet, makes more sense.
14:01:15 Okay, okay.
14:01:16 Um, and then on that note, too, uh, we…
14:01:20 do not have a meeting next week, so…
14:01:24 We have a little bit more time to, uh, kind of work with you guys.
14:01:29 As of just right now, just based off of the review cycle, so…
14:01:32 Um, we should have time…
14:01:35 In the next couple days, slash into next week to kind of…
14:01:38 hash out some of these things.
14:01:40 Okay, that's perfect. This is a priority. Like I said, we're… this is our last comment to address in building permit, so…
14:01:48 Um, okay.
14:01:49 And then, just a few last-minute little things, kind of related to the…
14:01:55 also facades, but…
14:01:56 Um…
14:02:00 Ensure that the articulation required by 511D2B is being shown on the elevation sheet. A colored elevation sheet with callouts showing compliance would need to be reviewed prior to approval.
14:02:12 Um… so there is some…
14:02:15 Specifically, under 511?
14:02:18 the facade shall have at least one element that is recessed or projected from the facade by at least 6 inches, and that is 2 feet in width for every 30 feet of the facade length.
14:02:30 Um…
14:02:32 So we weren't really seeing, like, the, uh…
14:02:36 Uh, maybe it was on that viewpoint analysis, but I didn't see any, like, uh, length measurements or anything for the buildings.
14:02:42 I can see the height is okay, um…
14:02:45 Okay, so you just want… I guess for…
14:02:49 Okay, um, yeah, I just need to add the…
14:02:58 Yeah.
14:02:54 Um, the lengths of the building. Okay, and I'll call you on this one, so it sounds like I have to just add some dimensions and…
14:03:01 show you that we're recessing these… there's elements that are recessing in and out, so…
14:03:06 Yeah, and then the last thing is in relation to the roof lines.
14:03:12 Um, they don't appear to reflect any change in elevation. I know, like, from building to building, they step up.
14:03:18 But, um, for every…
14:03:22 Um, 60 horizontal feet, there should be at least a…
14:03:26 2-foot, uh, vertical change.
14:03:29 So, it just kind of, like, looking at this, currently it just looks flat the whole way, so I don't know if the…
14:03:35 And I'm pretty sure that building's longer than 60 feet.
14:03:38 But, uh, we just…
14:03:39 Well, there's 3 separate buildings, and they drop down through the site.
14:03:44 looking off of Coors.
14:03:46 So, you know…
14:03:48 they drop down. This… this building is 4 foot higher than this building.
14:03:53 Yeah, and I can… and maybe this is something that we'll kind of have to hash out between us outside, but, um, the way I'm reading this is…
14:04:01 Even though the buildings themselves are individually stepping down, the roof lines, um…
14:04:07 need to change every 60 feet.
14:04:09 Oh, okay, I get what you're saying. Okay, then…
14:04:09 So, even if it's just, like, a two-foot bump-up,
14:04:15 Like, there just needs to be some sort of change between
14:04:17 Okay.
14:04:18 Um, the elevation on the individual roofs of the buildings, not necessarily as a whole.
14:04:22 Okay, yeah. I get what you're saying. So this is 57, okay, I get it. So you're saying here we're gonna have to have some sort of elevation change.
14:04:30 on that… that roofline.
14:04:33 Yeah.
14:04:33 Okay, alright.
14:04:35 And then that…
14:04:35 Yeah, so not necessarily the ground elevation, but the facade. So, yeah.
14:04:39 Yeah, I… okay, I'm getting what you're saying, so, yeah.
14:04:42 Go ahead, Jacob, sorry.
14:04:43 And that ends… that ends my comments, just, uh…
14:04:46 like, some… I just had a couple of little…
14:04:49 general comments in there related to the project and application numbers and so on and so forth, but…
14:04:54 That'll be for next time, whenever we are closer to approval.
14:04:58 But I think you guys are actually pretty close to getting this.
14:05:02 hashed out. It's just a lot of little things here and there.
14:05:05 Okay, yeah, that sounds good, thank you.
14:05:07 And like Jacob said, since we don't have a meeting next week, we'll have time to kind of work through this tentatively. What we'll do is we'll…
14:05:13 Um, put you on the next DFT meeting schedule for December 10th.
14:05:19 But you don't necessarily have to wait for the meeting for the approval. It's just to make sure that it's focused and on our radar, and we continue to kind of work through the revisions and things like that.
14:05:28 Okay, so, um, we'll work to address these comments, and then if we get approval, we can continue with the building permit, and then join the December 10th meeting, is that what you're saying?
14:05:51 Yeah.
14:05:39 What it is, is, yeah, just anytime you're ready for approval. So when you're ready for approval, you'll actually add your site plan approval to your building permit plan set, so that way it can move forward with the rest of the building permit. So that's kind of what they're waiting for there. So you don't have to wait for a meeting for, uh, like, you know, like this for an approval, because it's not a hearing, it's just… a lot of times it's easier because everybody's in one place, so you can kind of discuss
14:06:01 Any questions and any revisions that are required.
14:06:04 Okay, that sounds good, thank you.
14:06:05 No problem. All right, thanks, Benny.
14:06:07 Thanks, have a good day.
14:06:08 Me too. Alright, we're gonna move on to the next decision case, which is PR2018.
14:06:16 001681, which is the Sunset Gardens Multifamily Project. This is the third submittal, so is that team here?
14:06:26 Hi, Robert, yes, this is Donna Santoval with Cure West, I'm here.
14:06:28 Hey, Donna, how's it going?
14:06:30 Pretty good.
14:06:31 Good, good, okay. Um, I know you've been working a lot with Anthony, and then, uh, several different team members, but go ahead and walk us through the, kind of, the project and where you're at.
14:06:40 Okay, so this is our third submittal for the Sunset Gardens apartment complex.
14:06:44 Um, this is something that we've been working on since about March of 2024, I believe.
14:06:50 Uh, so we had a site plan submittal in March 2024, then we had a sketch plot.
14:06:55 kind of similar in April of 2025, and then another site plan similar in May of 2025.
14:07:00 So, uh, what I try to do with this submittal is kind of compile all of the comments that we received from all three of those.
14:07:07 meetings and make sure that we address absolutely everything that we possibly could, um, on them.
14:07:12 So I apologize for that, uh, 24-page comment response letter.
14:07:15 Well, it was extra thorough, though, so we do appreciate that.
14:07:20 Yes, so what… the major changes, though, that we had with this application is obviously the introduction of the phasing component.
14:07:28 Our client wanted to go ahead and, um, we originally… this also has a… like, a preliminary plat that's tied to it with the infrastructure list.
14:07:36 We did get that preliminary plot, um, approved, but then we wanted to go ahead and split the lot, so this is kind of incorporating that two-phased aspect of it.
14:07:45 Um, so that's what we're introducing here, I suppose, with the… with the red, um, outline indicating phase one.
14:07:52 But the main, um, updates that we provided were mainly providing notes that addressed.
14:07:57 Like the, uh, entrances, facades, and, like, windows, heating mitigations that we needed, um… On the elevation sheets and also on our site plan.
14:08:06 Uh, we pointed out, uh, the location of the EV-ready parking locations.
14:08:11 On the site plan, um, we did include our solid waste approval set, which we had not previously included.
14:08:18 So I made sure that that was included. Um, there were some major updates to our landscaping set.
14:08:24 Uh, increasing tree counts in several different aspects. And then… Let's see, we had a couple of updates from… Uh, APQA regarding notes on our.
14:08:35 Master Utility Plan, and then, um, I did see… The, uh, note from OPCO regarding getting some… getting our fire marshals correspondence regarding our fire hydrants across the street.
14:08:48 I have reached out to them on that. We do have our approved fire, um, Fire 1 plan on there.
14:08:53 Um, which they would have had to review, but I am reaching out for that confirmation in an email.
14:09:00 Um, and then… There was an update to our southern perimeter wall, as that's, like, the front of our lot, I guess?
14:09:09 Because our building is facing south, and so… We did have an update to our perimeter wall to the south.
14:09:17 That got adjusted from 6 feet to 5 feet in order to meet one of the code enforcement requirements that we needed.
14:09:22 Along with some updates to our landscaping plan to provide, um, like, noise and lighting buffers.
14:09:28 In that area, and then also. Lastly, one of the comments that we receive.
14:09:34 was regarding, um… Our sidewalk buffers and landscaping buffers.
14:09:39 Which we did end up getting a determination from transportation.
14:09:43 Uh, with our planning action. in June. So that was another aspect that we had to address for our site plan as well.
14:09:50 And then, um, stayed for comments.
14:09:53 Sounds good, thank you. And then are you… are you guys still working towards final plat, or do you need a planning amendment, or where is… where is that at? I can't… I couldn't remember.
14:10:01 Yeah, so we are working towards a plotting amendment. Right now, we have everything for the submittal, we're just waiting on our surveyor to actually give us the.
14:10:08 the outdated plot with the lot split.
14:10:09 Okay, sounds good. And then sometimes the final sign-off is going to be held based on, you know, the planning approval, but we can work towards that later, so…
14:10:17 Not a problem, we'll start with Water Authority. Bob Kane has some comments.
14:10:23 Oh, yes, Bob Kane with the Water Authority. Hello, Donna. Um, we appreciate that with the fire marshal, we've had some issues with.
14:10:32 Them not wanting to use a fire hydrant across a major street, so if we could just verify that, that would be great.
14:10:38 Um, then we had Pro Rata that's due on this property.
14:10:41 to the tune of 22, 5. Um, and that needs to be paid prior to approval.
14:10:48 Mm-hmm. Understood.
14:10:49 And that's all we had.
14:10:56 Thank you, Bob, and hydrology.
14:11:04 Um, let's see, it looks like we've approved their conceptual… Plan already, so we're gonna need the full grain and drainage plan when we get closer to building permit phase.
14:11:12 Um, so far, so good. I don't have any objections or any comments.
14:11:16 Sounds good. Thanks, sir. And…
14:11:19 Sir Teal with transportation.
14:11:17 All right, thank you guys.
14:11:22 Yeah, transportation has approved a TCL dated January 24.
14:11:27 2023, and transportation has no objection.
14:11:34 Sounds good, thank you. And did you guys have any questions regarding the infrastructure list, or not at all?
14:11:45 Was that a question for me, or for transportation?
14:11:45 I'm sorry, it was actually for… for, um, kind of all the above, whether it be the engineering team for Anthony Sertil or Bob, I just wanted to make sure they didn't have any questions there.
14:11:59 No, I'll take that as a no. We'll jump over to Parks and Rec. Hannah?
14:12:05 Good afternoon, this is Hannah Shea with Parks and Recreation.
14:12:09 So, it seems like we still have some comments on the street trees.
14:12:15 Um, City Forestry has commented that calculations. Um… don't match the… number of trees that are being shown along sunset.
14:12:27 And it seems like they are double counted along.
14:12:30 Sunset Gardens, 82nd and 86th. street, so if you can confirm that… It also seems like, um, she had comments on gamble oak trees, as well as.
14:12:45 Um, there is a comment on the size of the trees per the street tree ordinance that she has included in there.
14:12:52 Otherwise, yeah, I don't see anything else. Now, remind me, was your last submittal… to the DFT, was it in May?
14:13:13 I can double-check that. I don't remember if the dates are on here, Donna. Did you have that submittal date?
14:13:17 It was… it was in May. It was May 15th, I believe, somewhere around there.
14:13:20 Okay, yep, so back in May.
14:13:18 Alright. May 15th, yeah, correct.
14:13:30 Yeah.
14:13:23 I do have that memo up, because I wanted to see the history, um… I apologize, I didn't review the cases this week, that's why Ms. Phelan did, but I did pull up their previous.
14:13:35 memo, and it seemed like there were similar comments on that one, too, regarding street tree numbers.
14:13:41 Um, that city forestry had, um. mentioned, but it seems like you've made changes, and maybe one of the species that you've selected.
14:13:53 needs to be also replaced. But yeah, if you can, um… clarify on the number of the street trees?
14:14:01 Um, that should be it. Um, so… Our comments this time is just the City Forestry comments that you received.
14:14:08 Separately this time, um… For your case. Let me know if you have any questions.
14:14:14 Sounds good, thank you, Hannah. Donna, do you have any questions to address that, or just to…
14:14:19 A slight tweak to the… to the plan to get those updated.
14:14:24 Nope, I think… I think you're muted, yeah. Sorry.
14:14:24 Donna, you're muted.
14:14:27 Sorry, my phone was going off. Um, so we do have our required street trees, um.
14:14:33 called out on the site plan, you can see there on the… About the intersection of 82nd Street and Sunset Gardens, it'll say… there's a little note on the corner.
14:14:42 Um, of the plan where it says street trees are 25 feet off-center.
14:14:46 But then it says required street trees, and then I believe that's a 7?
14:14:51 Uh, provided 7, and then on the north side of the site plan, across the street from Sunset Gardens, you'll see.
14:14:57 kind of like the same note, but it says required Street Trees 41.
14:15:02 provided street trees 41, like, so it's providing that count per… Um, facade.
14:15:07 Or prolonging. And then we also have it, um… to the south, and also to the west as well.
14:15:15 Um. Let's doable… there we go.
14:15:22 And I believe the total came out. I think we have that included somewhere.
14:15:38 And Hannah, would those… would notes like that work okay?
14:15:38 Uh, we did.
14:15:42 Yeah, I just have to go back and check. Would you please zoom in on the east side of the property?
14:15:47 Just so, if I could check real quick.
14:15:54 Eastside, yeah, if you could zoom in… To that crate mark. Oh, you know what, um… possibility is that maybe they didn't… accept crepe myrtle?
14:16:09 as a street tree, so that is possible.
14:16:13 Yeah, so in one of our previous comments that we received from Parks and Recreation, um, I believe it was on that May.
14:16:20 Um, site plan DFT as well. It was, um… That… Let's see… Yupon holly, and crepe myrtle shall not be counted towards the street trees.
14:16:32 But in this case, we're not counting them towards our street trees. I did confirm with our landscape architect on that comment.
14:16:32 Yeah.
14:16:37 Yeah, so if you look at the east. edge of your property, 82nd Street.
14:16:42 You could count only 4 trees on that site.
14:16:42 Mm-hmm.
14:16:47 But you need 7… per, you know, the number that's written.
14:16:51 Right… right on there, it says required 7. But I think they have, um… counted the Crape Myrdol.
14:16:59 as a street tree, that's probably why the calculations didn't match as they were.
14:17:04 checking it. Marcelo, would you, um, scroll so I could look at the north.
14:17:10 Property Edge. Just a quick, um…
14:17:24 19… yeah, same as the north. Yeah, it's… it just seems like they have counted in the crepe myrtles as, uh, street trees.
14:17:34 Okay.
14:17:35 And that's why city forestry made those comments. Yeah, unfortunately… Those are not, um… I guess not large enough to provide the shade.
14:17:48 that, you know, we require. For the streets, so that is the issue.
14:17:54 Okay, then I'll go ahead and get those updated with our landscape architect as well.
14:18:01 Thanks, Hannah. Appreciate it.
14:17:58 Thank you.
14:18:05 And… let's go ahead and move to code enforcement.
14:18:10 Good afternoon, Donna, this is Jacob speaking on behalf of Code Enforcement.
14:18:15 Um, so I'm just gonna go through Jeff's comments here.
14:18:15 Good to go.
14:18:20 Looks like, must meet the dimensional standards of IDL51D.
14:18:25 Table 512.
14:18:27 Height is limited to 38 feet in MXL zone, and elevations show 43 feet.
14:18:34 Um, looks like he's saying you need a variance or a modification of the plan.
14:18:39 Um…
14:18:41 jump in and say, I'm working with staff on that. I did submit the previous… some… some older elevations, uh, over some newer elevations that we have, so it doesn't show that compliance, but we do have some plans that's with.
14:18:55 Gotcha. Okay. And then…
14:18:53 With the 38 feet being met.
14:18:58 Moving on to the fence, uh, as per IDO57D,
14:19:03 In the MXL zone, fences in the front and street-side yards are limited to 3 feet in height.
14:19:09 Plans show a 6-foot wrought iron fence along Sunset Gardens.
14:19:14 80-second and 86th Street.
14:19:17 You will need a variance tube fence height or modification of the plan for the fences.
14:19:23 Um, did that happen to be in…
14:19:25 older set that was included, or…?
14:19:27 No, that is in our current set. However, I did have a question with that. So, our… Um, development is facing south, so we're considering the south lotline our front lot line.
14:19:38 Over the Sunset Gardens, and so that still has a 6-foot wrought iron fence.
14:19:45 Um, but I understand the side lot lines would still need to be… Uh, 3 feet.
14:19:53 Um…
14:19:54 parking, bicycle spaces outside. He says perhaps he missed it, but he did not see the bicycle parking rack located on the plan.
14:20:04 I see that it's called out as note B, but I cannot blame him. I could not find where note B is called out either on the site plan.
14:20:12 Okay.
14:20:12 However, we do have, um, more than the required bicycle parking provided indoors.
14:20:19 I believe our required parking is around 20… Uh, some odd spaces, and we have about 30 located indoors.
14:20:28 Um… So I'll get that also updated.
14:20:32 Okay, perfect.
14:20:37 And then his last one is on signs.
14:20:40 So, a site plan note indicates that building-mounted signage will not extend more than 2 feet above the exterior walls of the building.
14:20:48 However, building-mounted signs are not allowed to extend.
14:20:52 above the roofline, per IDO definition of a wall sign.
14:20:56 Please correct slash remove that note.
14:20:59 Signs must be submitted separately for permit and must meet requirements of IDO 5-12.
14:21:05 Table 5-12-3.
14:21:09 And then that concludes code enforcement's comments on this.
14:21:10 Yes.
14:21:16 And with signage, it's kind of the same thing, that if the more general information on the site plan, you'll want to
14:21:16 And we'll get that update.
14:21:21 Noted, so that way, adding it won't trigger an amendment, but if you're too specific, then code enforcement may require an amendment if something changes.
14:21:30 Yeah, I think in this case, um… it's more of a typo where you meant it won't extend out from the building facade.
14:21:35 Oh, okay.
14:21:37 Um, but we have above, so we'll make… we'll correct it.
14:21:40 Okay. Sounds good. We'll jump over to Anthony. She has, uh, the planning comments, and I know you guys have been working together this past week.
14:21:51 Alright, so, um, I do want to make one quick comment. You made a…
14:21:56 Um, a mention of that the front of the property you're counting as
14:22:01 that, uh, southern…
14:22:03 Is… that's what you're considering the front, but unfortunately, I believe the IDO definition of what you can count as the front.
14:22:09 Depends on the street side that it's facing, so…
14:22:12 Regardless, Sunset Gardens…
14:22:15 or 86 is going to be your front.
14:22:19 frontage based on the ingress and egress of the cars and vehicles, so I think that's part of… so I still believe that Sunset Gardens is your front
14:22:28 If that makes sense.
14:22:30 Yes, that makes sense.
14:22:31 just go to the, um, definitions of the IDO, it'll tell you the definitions of sides.
14:22:37 Um, so we're working on the 38 feet, um…
14:22:42 So you can disregard the comments of the elevation, since I had the wrong sheets.
14:22:47 Um, I've just requested a full site plan.
14:22:52 of everything, just like with what's current, and also…
14:22:56 Um, with the phasing, if you could label, like, on the sheets,
14:23:01 the phasing as well, at least a note or some highlighting as well.
14:23:06 Now that that's been mentioned,
14:23:08 Um…
14:23:13 Sorry, just kidding me, ooh.
14:23:13 So we do have our, um, phasing called out by a red outline on, like, the site plan, the Fire 1 plan.
14:23:20 Gridding and drainage TCL… Um, currently?
14:23:26 Uh, do you need something more specific?
14:23:29 So on… I guess on the overall site plan, or at least have a sheet for the planning, like,
14:23:34 That's included in it that will just show that this is going to get phased
14:23:39 And also, you're gonna probably need to adjust your infrastructure list to show what is…
14:23:44 how that's being affected.
14:23:46 Yeah. So we have that little call-out right there on the… northeast corner that says Phase 1.
14:23:52 on the main…
14:23:53 Okay.
14:23:54 It's that red outline. Um, and then we are adjusting our… we have adjusted our infrastructure list, although it's attached to our plot.
14:24:03 Okay, I just want to make sure.
14:24:01 So we'll be… we'll be submitting that. Into the two phases. Okay.
14:24:07 And, um…
14:24:10 So I'm just scrolling through all my comments, I had quite a bit.
14:24:14 Your elevation sheets looked good.
14:24:17 Um, so I did have a talk with Jeff, uh, in regards to
14:24:22 We had to talk about how it's post-2023 IDO, like,
14:24:27 the comments for the photometric plan.
14:24:29 And he had stated that, um, basically that we'll still need to, like, verify compliance with Section 58 of the 2023 IDO.
14:24:37 So, like, in regards to, like,
14:24:40 the height of your pools. Um, you'll still have to provide that information. And then just to make sure that there's still no light
14:24:47 Um, trespass, and then
14:24:49 with a wattage or lumens that you're going to be using on that site, so…
14:24:53 That's, um, if you can just, like,
14:24:56 Maybe either in a comment letter or showing.
14:24:59 how you're… how this property is meeting the criteria of 58 for the IDO that…
14:25:05 you're being reviewed under 2023?
14:25:09 And then I did have a question about your electric vehicles.
14:25:08 Okay, understood.
14:25:14 I can see where they are on the plan, but are they EV-capable, or are they actually going to be EV-ready?
14:25:23 So the 15 that I believe are on the plan are EV ready.
14:25:27 Okay.
14:25:28 We have 14 or 15? It's 15, I believe.
14:25:30 If you can just have that comment, um, because I think there's a certain percent, like, 25% have to be EV-capable.
14:25:37 Versus the ones that are actually in START
14:25:40 that are actually a charging station.
14:25:43 I see that you have the requirements, but I'm not sure about the EV-capable.
14:25:48 the 25%.
14:25:52 Okay, I'll get those… I'll get that adjusted and added to the site plan.
14:25:54 It isn't… it's under, um, in my comments, under 55C9, just as an FYI.
14:26:00 Okay.
14:26:02 And so, at the very end of my comment memo, I provided you a list, um,
14:26:08 This… the black lettering at the solid is…
14:26:12 Everything that I see that's good at this point, um…
14:26:15 And then the orange were just kind of things that…
14:26:18 needed to be addressed.
14:26:21 But it looks like we can probably get you across the finish line, as long as you can meet all the other requirements, because
14:26:29 You have everything else that you need, and then just get me the correct elevation sheets, and then updated site planning.
14:26:37 we can move forward.
14:26:39 Yes. Yeah, so you guys are really close, so depending on how long it takes to get, you know, the small updates and whatnot that…
14:26:39 That sounds good.
14:26:44 that are discussed, we can work over the next week and try to…
14:26:48 Get you a formal approval, or if it's easier for you, we can tentatively schedule for the next DFT on the 10th.
14:26:54 Um, so, whichever is easier. You don't have to let us know right now, but just as we work over the next week, we can kind of determine that and go from there.
14:27:02 Yeah, we'll shoot to hopefully get it through the finish line as soon as possible, but if we need to go to the next one, then we go to the next one.
14:27:08 Okay, sounds good. Anything else?
14:27:12 Okay, then just let us know if you have questions along the way, and we will go from there.
14:27:11 Uh, not for me. Thank you.
14:27:17 Thanks, Donna.
14:27:19 Thank you.
14:27:20 Thank you, everyone.
14:27:22 Okay, so now we're gonna move on to our sketch plats and sketch plans, so that's our, um,
14:27:27 Reapplication cases, so it's kind of proposals, conceptual designs, that sort of thing. The first one is PR2025.
14:27:37 020140, and that is 909 4th Street Southwest?
14:27:41 Um, do we have anybody representing that particular, uh, submittal?
14:27:47 My name is Kat, I'm here.
14:27:48 All right, Chet, and go ahead and walk us through the property and what you're trying to do there.
14:27:54 Uh. We are proposing a hotel, uh, upper mid-scale, that's what I would call home to Suites by Hilton.
14:28:05 And… We are proposing about 4-story wood construction.
14:28:11 Now, is this the one on 4th Street, or are you the one on Wantabo?
14:28:11 Is that… Oh, wonderful.
14:28:15 Oh, okay, we're gonna get to… we're gonna get to this one in just a little bit. I recognize it, because I reviewed that one. Right now, it's okay, it's no problem.
14:28:21 Oh, I'm sorry.
14:28:23 This one that we're looking for, I believe, is a vocational school community center on 909 4th Street SW.
14:28:32 Uh, would be… Uh, Decker again.
14:28:35 Oh, okay. Sounds good.
14:28:40 Uh, give me just a second, and I can share our… Presentation…
14:28:50 And I think I still have you as a co-host, but if not, I'll get back in there.
14:29:03 Do you all see that?
14:29:15 Yes.
14:29:12 Um, happy to be back with you all again. So, uh, this, uh, request is for the site that you see in yellow, it's 909 4th Street.
14:29:24 Um, it is part of an expansion. to the existing Enquantreau, um, site located at 907.
14:29:34 Um, but they, from a funding perspective, um, the funding requires the lots to be separated… under separate ownership for at least a portion of time.
14:29:45 Um, so they, they are intended to function as one site, but they… the site plan can't encompass both sites due to the requirements of the IDO and the premise.
14:29:56 Um, for those two separate owners to be, um, the same.
14:30:02 Uh, in terms of EnQuantro, it is an existing community organization that has been in this location.
14:30:11 for some time. Um, they offer support services to immigrant, um, families and the immigrant community within our state.
14:30:19 Um, and they're really focused on, uh, job training.
14:30:24 training and, uh… I have no… Let's here… on this… Um… And they're looking at moving forward a, um… kind of simulation healthcare model on this particular site. So, again, it's intended to be kind of an extension of the existing services that they're already providing within the community, building directly to the north.
14:30:53 Um, in order to offer partnerships and workforce training, um, to home-based healthcare providers.
14:31:02 And so, the overall kind of program is that the… there's going to be an approximately 1,000 square foot, um.
14:31:09 single-family home simulator space. Now, this is not a dwelling, there's not actually anyone going to be living on the site.
14:31:17 Um, but it will look and kind of function like a home, um, simulator, so… and then there's a numerous, kind of, site amenities that are included on the site as well, so… a garden, some walking paths, outdoor kind of gathering spaces that are intended to support the community.
14:31:34 center to the north, as well as this particular space.
14:31:37 Um, and again, because. Functionally, they are the same. Um, we are anticipating this site to have its own independent parking. We, um, plan to.
14:31:50 Uh, work through a parking agreement that would share parking between the two sites, so… Uh, the model itself, the kind of structure that we're looking at, this kind of gives you an overview into what that would actually be. So, it looks very much like a home, but it is not.
14:32:06 actually occupied as a home, it will have functioning laundry and kitchen facilities.
14:32:11 And one kind of powder room, but the bathroom, um, bedroom situation there is… It has… it does not have functioning fixtures, so it's really just intended for a home healthcare worker to, um, be able to be trained on what they would need to do in that environment. There's some associated observation spaces.
14:32:31 Um, but not a functioning dwelling. Um, this is the proposed structure on the existing site. As you can see, the site itself.
14:32:41 has quite a few constraints in terms of the front set back being extremely narrow.
14:32:46 Um, there's a number of, kind of, utilities that are located within that site, and so, um, this is… How we plan to, kind of.
14:32:56 Uh, locate the structure in, um… comparison to the existing building to the north.
14:33:03 Um, I mentioned that there's a number kind of utility constraints on the site, so there is a narrow curb cut right now, the site is kind of being used as informal parking for, um, the facility to the north.
14:33:18 There's a number of, kind of, water and fire hydrants, um, and electrical, um.
14:33:25 Items, fire suppression that are located within that front setback.
14:33:30 Um, that are intended to remain. We don't necessarily.
14:33:34 want to relocate those items if we… if we don't need to.
14:33:39 Um, and so, a couple of the items and why we're here in front of you for this sketch plot is that, um, the front.
14:33:47 Maximum setback, uh, per the IDO is required at 15 feet. Um, we're requesting a 10… or we're anticipating a request for a 10% deviation to that.
14:33:57 Again, as I mentioned, there's a lot of utilities within that space that we're having to accommodate.
14:34:03 Um, and so that relief is kind of needed, um… for those particular reasons.
14:34:12 Um, and then I mentioned parking, um, because of the kind of very small-scale nature of this site, our intention is to enter into a shared parking agreement.
14:34:24 With the kind of primary building, as we're seeing it to the north.
14:34:28 Um, so we wanted to talk through the logistics of that, um, that the parking lot to the north does have capacity to be able to support that. It's really only two spaces that are needed for this particular use.
14:34:40 Um, but did want to highlight that as kind of a… constraints. Uh, and I believe… That is it, so let me just go back to the site plan.
14:34:53 care. Oh, and one other item, um, that I didn't mention specifically, but I should.
14:34:59 that we're hoping to get some guidance on is, um, the… the structure itself has about a… The primary frontage that you see here, which is facing 4th Street.
14:35:11 It's fairly narrow, it's only about 28 feet, and so getting some clarification on the facade requirements specifically, uh, most of the, you know, the standards within the IDO require articulation at 30-foot intervals.
14:35:25 We don't have a 30-foot interval. Our entire, um… Front facade is only about 28 feet, so, um, there's some challenges on how we meet the amount of articulation that's needed, given the very small, um.
14:35:41 amount of building facade that we have available. And with that, I'll stand for… Questions or discussion?
14:35:49 Okay, sounds good. On the facade, it's probably working through, um, some of that with code enforcement to identify, for one, it's, you know, the measurement is off, so you don't have
14:35:59 a full 30 feet, so that way they can tell you what's going to apply and what wouldn't apply.
14:36:04 Um, same thing with the building, you want to double-check with code and with, um, building safety to see how they're going to identify that to make sure that they're not
14:36:13 Assuming that that's going to be a dwelling, so that way you don't run into those type of issues.
14:36:17 Um, and for the deviation, as long as the measurement isn't called out, like, in an overlay, then you could discuss the deviation with code enforcement for that dimensional standard. Otherwise, if it's called out in the overlay, you would need to request a variance.
14:36:32 Alright, and then we can go to Water Authority.
14:36:31 Okay.
14:36:36 Good afternoon, Bob Kane with the Water Authority. Um, our comment was to have you place a request for a water and sewer availability statement.
14:36:44 So that we can determine how to. serve the property, um, which will include a fire marshal, uh, Fire 1 plan.
14:36:53 The big issue with this site is the sanitary sewer.
14:36:59 And 4th Street is a 36-inch interceptor. And we do not allow service connections to a.
14:37:05 of large line like that due to odor concerns back.
14:37:08 have concerns. So we'll need to research it and um… issue an availability statement.
14:37:15 Okay, great.
14:37:15 And that's all we had.
14:37:19 And with that front area, since there's utilities on the landscaping plan, you'll want to identify if, um, you know, how you're modifying that, if you're just avoiding utilities, or if it would be easier for you to submit an alternative landscaping plan, so you guys can kind of decide that.
14:37:33 Alright, we'll jump to hydrology.
14:37:33 Okay.
14:37:40 Okay, let's see, so we've got an improved conceptual grade and drainage plan as required.
14:37:44 Or… so we're gonna need to see a conceptual, you know, to start off with, at least.
14:37:48 So we're going to talk about the drainage, and then we're going to need, um, as we move further down, we're gonna need a full.
14:37:55 Um, green and drainage plan has moved toward the building permit phases.
14:38:00 Um, and the location of this, uh… the site, it's gonna be… it's gonna have to follow the valley drainage criteria, because they're close to the river and stuff.
14:38:08 So there's some special things about that for water harvesting, and… And the pawn sizes and all that.
14:38:14 Um, so yeah, we're gonna need to start with some… Uh, grading and drainage plants, and conceptual is usually the first one we start with to see.
14:38:22 Which you guys… Have in mind.
14:38:26 Okay. Um, yeah, we'll have to get… With the team to circle back on those items.
14:38:34 Sounds good, thank you. And Sir Teal with transportation.
14:38:32 Okay.
14:38:38 First, uh, 4th Street is a minor arterial.
14:38:41 And the main street corridor.
14:38:44 Requires 10 feet sidewalk.
14:38:47 And 6 straight feet landscaping.
14:38:50 Number two, any future development will require…
14:38:54 and approve the TCL prior to…
14:38:58 site plan or building permit.
14:39:01 Also, a traffic scoping form would need to be…
14:39:04 submitted to determine if a TIS would be required.
14:39:11 Sounds good. Records, your team have any questions?
14:39:17 I don't think so.
14:39:18 Okay. And you guys can work through, you know, possible infrastructure lists as a part of it, and then if any waivers are needed, or even an option as you start moving forward.
14:39:28 And… let's see, we'll jump to Parks and Rec.
14:39:33 Hi, this is Hannah Shea with Parks and Recreation. Our comments today are city forestry comments.
14:39:39 Um, street trees will be required along 4th Street Southwest at 25 feet on center, and it seems to be… there seems to be an existing tree on the site.
14:39:48 They have mentioned that that could count towards a street tree calculations if it's 20 feet, um.
14:39:54 from the back of the curb, at the most, 20 feet from back of the curb. I just, uh, measured it on… Google on the top view, and it does seem like, um.
14:40:05 it is within that 20-foot distance, so that could get… counter towards your street tree, and they have referred you to IDO5C, uh, 56C12, existing vegetation credits.
14:40:18 For more information. That may change the number of trees that you require to provide.
14:40:24 Um, because you have a… more of a mature tree. So, uh, please refer to that.
14:40:30 And let us know if you have any questions.
14:40:32 Thank you.
14:40:52 Sorry about that, code was in my office.
14:40:56 Okay, we'll jump over to code enforcement. Jacob has those comments.
14:40:50 Hey, Robert, I'm done with my comments.
14:41:00 Yeah, speaking of code, this is Jacob speaking on behalf of code enforcement.
14:41:05 Uh, landscaping. A 15-foot landscape buffer is required on the west side of the property, adjacent to residential.
14:41:11 As per IDO56, E2A1.
14:41:17 Yeah
14:41:16 And then…
14:41:20 about that. So, there are some planned improvements in terms of, like, circulation paths and things that are intended to serve the site.
14:41:28 are… is a circulation path allowed to be within that existing buffer?
14:41:32 Or does it need to be purely vegetative materials?
14:41:39 my… I don't know, first off,
14:41:42 100%, but my gut tells me no, but I… we can definitely find out.
14:41:47 Um…
14:41:49 like I said, my gut tells me no, but…
14:41:49 Yeah, that's…
14:41:49 And I… I think it… I think it partially can, depending on the… on the design and the material. I know, like,
14:41:56 Parking can't be within a buffer area, but I think it partially can, so we can… we could follow up on the specifics on that.
14:42:02 Right, yeah, that… just because the site is so constrained, um, in this instance.
14:42:10 Sounds good.
14:42:07 getting some clarity on that would be appreciated.
14:42:11 And then code just only had one more, uh, parking and setback concern solutions are acceptable as addressed in the justification letter.
14:42:20 And then following that, code enforcement has no further comments.
14:42:28 And we'll go… I think, I believe this one for planning is Marcelo.
14:42:25 Great, thank you.
14:42:33 Yes, good afternoon. Marshal, we're covering the planning commons.
14:42:36 Uh, just to, uh…
14:42:38 reiterate that this site is within the Barrellas Neighborhood Association.
14:42:42 Also, we're gonna measure Transit and Main Street corridor areas.
14:42:47 And, uh, just like Robert said at the beginning, just cross-referenced with code enforcement in regards the
14:42:53 deviation, uh, standards there to see if you're within
14:42:56 the threshold allowed there, and also the facade requirements for the…
14:43:02 for the building. Um…
14:43:05 And uh… just, uh, planning staff will also do for the transportation team regarding the
14:43:11 Uh, it's a narrow curb cut, referenced in your justification there, just to make sure that it works out.
14:43:18 Um, and that is the end of my comments.
14:43:20 I did give you a clear path of how to apply for aid.
14:43:24 Um… I'll follow up with the, um…
14:43:29 to apply for, um,
14:43:32 the path moving forward.
14:43:34 apply for a site plan for metal.
14:43:37 Sorry, I didn't catch that. You gave us a path for… to move wet forward?
14:43:41 Uh, to apply for the site plan administrative submittal?
14:43:46 And that is the end of my comments. Thank you.
14:43:45 Alright.
14:43:52 Um, can… can we… I think this conversation can probably happen offline, but would it be possible to just reach out to you specifically, Marcelo, to talk through the specifics of the… um, facade articulation elements and kind of how we.
14:44:08 plan to comply, or is that more code enforcement?
14:44:09 Oh, certainly. You can just, uh, put my information in the chat, uh, that way you can just either email me or give me a call.
14:44:16 Okay, great.
14:44:18 And possibly even over the next couple days, we might be able to do a separate Zoom, or you guys can come in the office or whatever, and we could try to set something up with both Jeff and Marcelo, so that way everybody's on the same page.
14:44:30 Sounds good.
14:44:28 Yes, that would be appreciated, thank you.
14:44:29 Yes. And all my information is going there now, so we can just get enough of the, um…
14:44:40 And anything else? I think that's it.
14:44:41 Okay, I had a decision hop.
14:44:44 Yes, sir.
14:44:44 Quick question. So, uh…
14:44:47 So you're having to build a real close to 4th Street. What was the reasoning for having it so close to the 4th Street?
14:44:55 Yes.
14:44:55 because there's a maximum setback that we have to meet. We'd like to move it further back, ideally, but, um… you know, based on the code, we need to move it as close to the street as possible.
14:45:09 So, that curb cut, is it going to remain, or…?
14:45:13 I guess, because I don't think we're going to be able to keep that curb cut.
14:45:15 Because it's…
14:45:16 The intention is not to allow vehicular traffic onto the site, so, um… That is… I mean, we're still early in kind of design refinement, but there's no… like I mentioned, the… the hope is that we can do a shared parking model with the building, the existing building to the north, which is kind of the primary use of this intended.
14:45:38 Um… simulation trainer, and so I don't think that we intend to utilize the curb cut going forward, um, and we, you know, we'll have to make some.
14:45:49 improvements to the streetscape along that, so I would imagine that that would include removal of the curb cut.
14:45:54 And then there's also a ramp just to the other side.
14:45:59 Also, I don't know what the ramp is… is that a ramp? I'm just looking at it from the street view.
14:46:05 Yeah, right there with the power pole to on the right-hand side, there's a ramp there, too. I don't know what that's serving.
14:46:11 So that has to be re-changed as well. You have to be replaced with the regular curb and gutter and sidewalk.
14:46:18 Yeah.
14:46:19 Okay, yeah, no, I just wanted to mention that, uh, yeah, that's kind of strange that we can't push a building back. Then you don't have to worry about the 5-foot setback.
14:46:27 Um, on the side setback, I guess.
14:46:29 Okay.
14:46:30 I mean, our assumption, and unless you have any other, um… advice is that we couldn't do that without a variance, but if there's any other mechanisms, you know, that you can recommend for, um… To kind of alleviate that constraint.
14:46:48 Okay. Yeah, we'll have our guys look into it to see if there is, yeah,
14:46:50 I'd love to hear it.
14:46:53 That's strange that we cannot push the building back, yeah.
14:46:58 But hey, code is code.
14:46:57 I think… yeah, I mean, at a glance, I think the only workaround is a variance, but I think you'd have, you know, quite a few different arguments that would help
14:47:07 Um, give you a good chance at approval, but again, it's a… it'd be a separate process for you.
14:47:12 I mean, I guess one of the arguments, if you guys wanted to have parking spaces in the front,
14:47:17 That could be one argument, because then, basically, by having the building so far,
14:47:22 up close to the property line.
14:47:24 It's, uh, it's basically… you can't have a curb cut.
14:47:28 to get to the, you know, to any kind of parking space that would be required.
14:47:37 Yeah, I mean, I think… I think given the constraints, um, of the site itself.
14:47:42 We know that a variance is… an option, um, given the timing and.
14:47:48 Um, scheduling of this project, I'm not sure that we have.
14:47:53 Oh, I see.
14:47:55 Got it. Okay, all right.
14:47:53 the time available to pursue that, so… Yeah.
14:48:03 Yes, sir.
14:48:00 Robert, I had another question. For the applicant. Um, right now, it's two lots.
14:48:06 And you were saying that you're going to maintain two lots?
14:48:11 Yes.
14:48:11 That really is key for, um… service. If it's consolidated into one lot.
14:48:16 They can… they can use the existing services on.
14:48:20 907. Um, it's just… Something that you should consider.
14:48:26 Um, because with the sewer situation. It could get expensive to try and get a service to it.
14:48:32 I just wanted to throw that out there.
14:48:34 That's a great point, Robert. Thank you. I… I will circle back with, um, our team. As far as we understand right now.
14:48:42 They have to remain separate sites currently, um… for a… I believe, you know, a certain period of time.
14:48:50 Um, but we will evaluate the expense of that, um.
14:48:56 Of that particular infrastructure need, and see if it's worth reconsidering the need for consolidation.
14:49:04 Okay, thank you.
14:49:12 And uh, were your place… were you guys planning on applying for a sign permit, or are there signs on the site?
14:49:16 karma?
14:49:20 I am unaware if we need sites currently. I believe that the… I don't know. That's something we can follow up on.
14:49:28 Okay, the reason I was asking is because, uh, just consider that
14:49:31 Uh, it is within the historic, I think, and some types of signs are not prohibited.
14:49:37 there, so just keep that in mind.
14:49:39 Yeah, great point, Marcel. Thank you, we'll make sure.
14:49:41 Yeah, the other tonic sun's up right here moving up to there, in that area.
14:49:42 My left side.
14:49:47 It's something else that also you said you're going to get, uh…
14:49:49 Parking agreement for this other lot.
14:49:52 So, I…
14:49:54 So, we're going to need to… I don't see any handicapped parking there, it's just the gravel, so that's something else that you may have to look into.
14:50:01 As well, while you're doing that.
14:50:03 It does have handicap, um, it was renovated a few years back, and they… and what you're seeing on the screen is probably.
14:50:11 It's all… okay. Got it, got it, thank you.
14:50:16 Yeah, they're there, in front.
14:50:17 Okay, got it, yeah, probably interested, still not reflected on this layout, okay.
14:50:23 Under Street View.
14:50:23 It was probably just outdated.
14:50:27 Sounds good. Thank you. Just follow up with Marcelo, and then he can, um…
14:50:31 help get that set up with Jeff, and so that way you guys can talk through those issues as well.
14:50:37 Thank you, have a good one.
14:50:36 That sounds great, thank you. Yeah.
14:50:42 Alright, so we're gonna move on to number 5, which is 413 Cornell Southeast.
14:50:47 And that is project number PR2025020139. Is anyone here for 413 Cornell?
14:50:57 Uh, yes, this is, uh, Leonard Sanchez. And also, I have with me, um, Mike Henke, who's, um, my brother-in-law.
14:51:05 jointly, uh, proposing to develop the property in question.
14:51:08 Okay, sounds good. Why don't you walk us through, kind of, the property and the proposal, and we'll, uh…
14:51:13 get you some… some comments.
14:51:15 Let me see if I can bring… bring this up, um… Okay, let me see if somebody's on…
14:51:34 No, I'm sorry, um…
14:51:39 There you go, Mr. Sanchez, he should be able to share now if you wanted to share your screen.
14:51:43 Yeah, that's what I was trying to do that. Okay.
14:51:44 Okay.
14:51:45 So, um… What… are you saying it now, or did it drop off?
14:51:50 I think it dropped off.
14:52:00 And if not, we can pull up some of the… some of the submitted documentation as well.
14:51:52 Okay, I'm not sure why it did that. It's, um… I'm getting a, uh… Okay, let's see…
14:52:04 Yeah, so, okay, so this… It keeps, uh, for some reason.
14:52:11 Not anymore.
14:52:15 Oh, there we go.
14:52:10 Are you seeing it? I don't know why it keeps doing this, um… Yeah. So, uh, this is currently, uh, this is what we are proposing to build on the property.
14:52:23 Uh, this is located on the 400 block of Cornell Southeast, just, uh.
14:52:29 4 blocks south of Central, uh, straight down the… Easiest reference point is the Frontier Restaurant. It's, um… I'm 4 blocks out.
14:52:39 There currently is on the property. Um, a two-bedroom, um.
14:52:44 unit with a standalone garage. on one of the lots to the north.
14:52:51 And the, um… Um, it… it… because of the condition of the house and some structural issues with the house.
14:53:01 We're actually going to have the house demolished. And then, um… And the idea would be to.
14:53:08 Build, uh, two si- uh… Uh, 6 townhouses on each of the 2 lots.
14:53:16 Oh, okay, so keep it as two lots and just do 6 units and 6 units.
14:53:20 Yeah, so what they would… what would happen is there would be mirror images of one another, they would face each other.
14:53:26 and have sort of a shared common area between, um.
14:53:29 Between the two structures. Uh, we're proposing… one question I know that did come up, um.
14:53:38 in some of the comments were regarding the. Sidewalk in the planning area. Uh, on the plan that we made available, those… those.
14:53:45 Those are the two items that are not to scale.
14:53:48 The existing sidewalk is 5 foot, and, um, and width.
14:53:52 And the existing planting area is actually 12 foot.
14:53:56 And what, uh, and width, so… We, uh, I believe we satisfy those requirements.
14:54:04 But, um, as I said, there, uh, so… That is what we're proposing there, and you can see the basic layout.
14:54:12 Okay.
14:54:11 Out of the units there. And so, um, I, uh, in reviewing the IDO.
14:54:21 I believe that we, uh, satisfy the various, um.
14:54:24 the various requirements, and I guess the question is, at this point.
14:54:29 Is, um… Um, trying to get feedback from the planning department and the various other departments.
14:54:37 So the proposed development.
14:54:38 Okay, sounds good. We can go through some comments at a glance, depending on if you would need infrastructure or not.
14:54:44 would determine if you would end up going straight to building permit or have a site plan submittal, so that would be one of the things to determine, but we could start with the Water Authority to see if the comments and go through all the different sections.
14:54:57 Good afternoon, this is Bob Kane with the Water Authority.
14:55:00 We need to have a request for a water and sewer availability statement.
14:55:05 Um, Don, according to this link that we have in the comments.
14:55:08 Which will also include a fire marshal, fire one.
14:55:13 plan. Um, so each lot, keeping it. keeping it as two lots will require.
14:55:18 separate water and sewer services. Currently, uh, 413 Cornell.
14:55:24 has a water sewer account. But 415, we'll have to establish a new account.
14:55:28 At the very least, and then we'll have to look at fire protection and make sure that.
14:55:32 we have that covered.
14:55:35 Yes, and we'd anticipated that we would have to, um… have separate service for the… for the two structures.
14:55:43 Okay. And that's all we had.
14:55:46 Thank you, Bob. Any other questions?
14:55:46 Okay.
14:55:54 Alright, we'll move to hydrology. Anthony?
14:55:56 All right, separate services, but are you guys gonna share the drainage?
14:56:00 That's the question. So, um, I don't have anything on file, right? I mean, this is all real preliminary, so we're gonna need to see some grain and drainage plans. Usually, people start with a conceptual.
14:56:09 And if everything goes good with her, then we roll that and keep going into a full drainage drainage plant.
14:56:15 But, um, because of this layout, it looks like you're going to want to, um… establish, uh… a cross-lot drainage easement.
14:56:24 That's gonna benefit both lots and both properties maintained by both lots, both properties. That way, we don't have to throw a retaining wall right down the middle.
14:56:32 Yeah.
14:56:31 And keep your water in your side, and your water on your side of the wall, and that kind of stuff, so… cross-low drainage easement looks like it… Looks like it's gonna be needed for this, that way you guys can just let it flow. And then, of course, we don't know where it's going to flow, because we haven't seen any G&D plans yet, but generally, I would guess that it's going to go to the right-of-way.
14:56:48 You know, to the east onto Cornell, but… We'll see after you guys get it all designed.
14:56:52 Yeah.
14:56:55 Um, and then, of course, you know. We're gonna need the full… creating a drainage plan before building permit phase and all that.
14:57:03 No, uh, we had anticipated that, and I do appreciate your.
14:57:04 Um…
14:57:08 comment about the crosslot drainage easement, and I think we're open to that, so…
14:57:12 Yeah, yeah, that should be an easy fix, that would… that would… That's what they're there for. Um… pawns, right, depends on size of the ponds and all that stuff.
14:57:22 Um, just be aware there is a payment in lieu if you guys.
14:57:25 cannot put the volume needed, if you can't, you know, pond up.
14:57:30 the amount that's required. Um, there's a payment in lieu option where you can offset that.
14:57:36 Cash. So, you know. Whatever your deficient is, uh… can be taken care of with cash. Just looking at… it looks like you might be in that situation, so… And your, uh, your engineer will know about that stuff, too.
14:57:48 Okay.
14:57:50 Okay, do you have any questions?
14:57:54 Let me, Mike, do you have any?
14:57:57 Um, you spoke of a conceptual drainage plan. Uh… is that through… Resubmittal to this.
14:58:00 Yeah.
14:58:06 committee…
14:58:07 No, um, your, your, uh, your engineer's gonna have to upload a conceptual grading and drainage plan into ABQ Plan.
14:58:13 And then that'll get routed to hydrology, and then we'll review it, either give back comments or approve it.
14:58:19 And then that's what we'll… we'll have on file for… for this project as it moves forward.
14:58:26 Is that before we would have any, uh… survey, or, um… Elevations.
14:58:31 You're probably… yeah, you're gonna need some elevation, so it'll probably be after the survey, because he's going to need all that data.
14:58:38 To show, um, you know, it's higher on the… we're gonna, we're gonna… Bring some material in and make it go, you know… To the east, you know, make it… make it flow to the street.
14:58:49 You know, that kind of stuff. But yeah, he's gonna need elevations, that way he can determine, you know, what's the elevation of the sidewalk, what's the elevation of the.
14:58:51 Okay.
14:58:57 The curb, the flow line in the street, the… And then that'll help them establish, you know, where does your finished floor have to be?
14:59:05 and respect all that, you know.
14:59:07 Okay, I guess I'm a little uncertain of what the difference between a conceptual drainage plan and.
14:59:15 Uh, drainage plan that would be submitted as part of.
14:59:19 Uh, plans for permit.
14:59:18 There's… it's… it's… Yeah, so that's… that's in the DPM. There's a checklist in there, and it spells out, you know, what absolutely is required, what are the minimums for a conceptual, what are the minimums for a grain and drainage in the DPM, but it's very stripped back.
14:59:31 there's a lot less information. We're not going to be looking at calculations and stuff.
14:59:36 Really, it could be as simple as a schematic.
14:59:38 You know, um, I don't need to necessarily have all your elevations on there. If he just wants to sketch it out and say, like, we're gonna go around the buildings this way, and it's gonna go that way to the street, and we're gonna have some sidewalk culverts here and there and stuff.
14:59:52 It could be as generic as that. We're not gonna… we're not gonna beat them up too much on a conceptual.
14:59:57 Um, certainly when we get to the full GMD, we're gonna check his math, we're gonna check the north arrow, you know, all that stuff.
15:00:04 So, I could… I could explain the difference between conceptual. Sometimes people want to do a replot,
15:00:04 Thank you.
15:00:08 Oh.
15:00:10 Or just get it, like, a side plan approved prior to full building permit approval.
15:00:14 So we'll just do a conceptual, quick, quick review of a, like, conceptual plan.
15:00:21 And that happens on big projects. In your project, most likely you just want to do a full gradient drainage plan approval.
15:00:26 Because, you know, it's a good chance that you'll go to, uh,
15:00:30 a building permit. Uh, just a quick question. Parking spaces are just going to be, like, the units are going to, like, have a…
15:00:37 parking spaces under them.
15:00:41 Where's the parking at?
15:00:40 No. The… the… Plan shows 6 parking.
15:00:49 spaces in the front, and 6, uh… extras through the alley in the back of the buildings.
15:00:54 Okay, I'll let my transportation guy talk about all this stuff, but if you're taking access off of the alley, reality has to be paved.
15:01:02 So that'll create an infrastructure list.
15:01:06 for access. So, uh, then your trash pickup, is it up front?
15:01:12 Well, we were proposing, and we haven't got a clarification from Solid Waste.
15:01:18 Uh, whether those could be individual rollout containers to the curb.
15:01:21 Okay, got it. Okay.
15:01:24 So, yeah, the alley, if it's not paved, needs to be paved.
15:01:27 Okay.
15:01:28 And, uh, I guess if the water is draining to the alley, then we probably want to still want to keep it that way and just look, see how… but we'll talk to your engineer about that.
15:01:38 Okay.
15:01:38 Okay. How much of the alley would have to be paved? We're about… I would say in the middle.
15:01:47 of Garfield and, uh, Cole.
15:01:57 Alright, so, uh…
15:01:59 Let's look at that, well, let's let it… so it's not paved right now, right?
15:02:04 Okay.
15:02:03 No. No, it's dirt.
15:02:06 Okay, yeah, that, uh, makes it a little bit difficult. Let us take a look. Why don't you figure out what the solid waste needs to do?
15:02:14 Uh, and uh, yeah, especially if you're going to drain to the back, or we have to drain to the back, and how it's draining, that could cause, uh…
15:02:22 some issues, because then now, you know,
15:02:24 We may have to pave the alley to basically to at least one side,
15:02:29 Where does drainage go? But we'll take a look at it, see what we need to do.
15:02:32 Then, uh, if there's a curb cut in the front that you're not gonna use anymore, you're gonna have to take that out and replace it with the regular curb and gutter.
15:02:40 Yes, sir. Do you see any issue with the back parking?
15:02:47 Uh, being accessed through the alley?
15:02:50 I don't think so, but I'll let my transportation guy talk about that. I don't, uh…
15:02:55 I don't foresee an issue, but I'll let them talk about the depth, because, you know, we have certain requirements on angle parking, and…
15:03:03 how skewed it could be, and all that stuff, the depth, so I'll let him talk about that stuff.
15:03:08 So I don't see any dimensions on it, so it's kind of hard for me to say yay or nay.
15:03:08 Okay. Well, I think we call them out as 8 foot by 18.
15:03:16 So, minimum, uh, parking spaces are 8.5 feet wide.
15:03:21 And the depth is 18 to 20 feet, and angle parking, so we gotta…
15:03:28 like the, you know, so we gotta look at it in detail to see, you know,
15:03:31 And then also the angle of the parking.
15:03:34 we have in the DPM that are there, that you could take a look at, see what those are.
15:03:39 I don't remember the exact angle that you could have them at.
15:03:46 Yeah…
15:03:43 I don't remember the exact angle myself. But we can meet the 8.5 by 20.
15:03:51 Well, it's, like, 8.5 by 18, uh, I think.
15:03:55 Okay.
15:03:55 Yeah, but I just want to make sure the back of your car… I mean, the problem with these spaces are, like, if you park a big truck there, and then if the…
15:04:02 You know, it's like a full-size pickup.
15:04:06 then the back is going to be extended into the alley, and…
15:04:09 you know, that's the issue. So we just have to watch closely, uh, how we design these angle parking.
15:04:09 Yeah.
15:04:17 And Shahab, since the parking is separate and not
15:04:17 All right, thank you.
15:04:20 per individual unit, they… are they going to have to worry about the driveway length issue?
15:04:27 I don't think so, we just have to do a shared parking
15:04:30 Okay.
15:04:32 easement or something like that.
15:04:33 Code Enforcement will call out some different things with site design, because it deals with the use-specific standards for townhome, and then also the standards for low-density residential. So, they'll go into that a little bit further, but um…
15:04:44 then, uh, and then, you know, handicap parking, that's something else that we need to check, see if it's… if you're gonna need a handicap parking space as well.
15:04:55 Because typically, every time you provide parking spaces, one space at least, you have to be
15:05:00 handicapped parking.
15:05:05 We could… yeah, all right.
15:05:08 And then we'll go to, uh, Sertil with transportation.
15:05:12 Yeah, number one, Cornell is a local street, requires 5 feet sidewalk.
15:05:19 And 4 to 6 feet landscaping buffer.
15:05:22 Please provide widths of existing sidewalk.
15:05:25 And buffer to determine if widening is required.
15:05:30 Number two, any future development will require and approve
15:05:35 GCL prior to site plan.
15:05:38 or building permit.
15:05:41 Also, a traffic scoping form.
15:05:43 would need to be submitted to determine if a TIS would be required.
15:05:52 Okay. As I mentioned, the existing sidewalk is 5 feet in width.
15:05:58 And, uh, existing planting area is actually 12 feet.
15:06:02 So you don't… if it's 5 feet, that's fine, you are…
15:06:06 Okay.
15:06:09 I guess you put it on the drawings.
15:06:07 Mm-hmm. Yeah, I, um, it was… it was, uh… A last-minute thing, and I apologize, I didn't put that to scale.
15:06:23 Do you call out the existing alley?
15:06:23 Oh, that's okay, that's very common with the pre-application. I'm sorry, Ernest, go ahead.
15:06:26 Are you calling out the width of the existing alley?
15:06:34 Okay, so that's… that's another thing that… that we… we kind of…
15:06:39 Missed right there is that alleyways are required to be…
15:06:42 20 feet wide?
15:06:44 I mean, it's like, if you don't meet that 20 feet, then you can, uh…
15:06:50 request a, uh…
15:06:52 Determination on that one.
15:06:54 But you have to give a justification for that, but…
15:06:57 Go ahead and give us the width of that, and that will also help determine
15:07:01 how well you can get access off of that alley, because…
15:07:05 The narrower the alley is, the harder it is to, uh…
15:07:08 work with.
15:07:09 Okay. Yeah, they, um… I'd say over half the pro… half the properties, um.
15:07:18 In, um, along Cornell and the… I forget the street to… immediately to the west.
15:07:29 No, no, no, and that's fine.
15:07:25 Uh, are using the alley for access to. They're units. Um…
15:07:32 Uh, back to some of the stuff that Shahab was talking about earlier, about paving the alley.
15:07:37 The problem that you run into with angled parking, that means that you're coming in
15:07:42 To it from one side, and you're leaving it
15:07:45 through the other side of the alley.
15:07:48 I mean, normally, if you only had
15:07:47 Okay.
15:07:53 If we only make you pave to the closest street,
15:07:54 But in this case, you'd be using the full length of the alley. You may be required to.
15:07:59 do the full length.
15:08:04 So, how do we… how do we, uh, reach a conclusion on that?
15:08:10 As to, uh, how much you'd have to pave?
15:08:13 Yes.
15:08:14 Well, the way it's laid out right now with angled parking, you'd have to do the whole thing.
15:08:19 Because it's like, you're coming in from one side, and you're leaving from the other side, so you…
15:08:24 you're forcing yourself to use the entire length of the alley.
15:08:27 So you'd have to improve the entire thing.
15:08:29 If you… if you were able to squeeze it into where you had, uh…
15:08:33 You know, the street parking, you know, just straight in rather than, uh, angled.
15:08:38 then you could just do it to the…
15:08:40 From your frontage to the closest street.
15:08:51 Is there a code issue that you could…
15:08:49 Okay.
15:08:54 You cannot come off of Cornell and put the parking spaces.
15:08:57 off of Cornell and do a perpendicular parking.
15:09:01 Well, I guess, no, sorry, you don't have the space. I take that back.
15:09:09 But I'm understanding if the alley is 20 feet.
15:09:14 Well,
15:09:14 We would be able to access. half the alley.
15:09:21 Well, it's…
15:09:23 It's not necessarily the width of the alley, it's like, you have to provide us the width,
15:09:28 the, oh yeah, I'm seeing right there, 16, so…
15:09:31 With that, and I know you don't want to widen the alley, because
15:09:34 you can only watch for you.
15:09:37 You can only widen where your color is.
15:09:35 Well, yeah, I think… The width of the alley is probably the.
15:09:42 I understand, so let me finish, please. So…
15:09:40 the two property lines, right?
15:09:44 Rather than widening the alley, what you have to do is you have to request the determination, because
15:09:49 We have to ask for the 20 feet,
15:09:52 So, you have to request a determination to allow it to remain 16.
15:09:57 And so you have to provide justification for that.
15:10:00 If you need help with the justification,
15:10:02 You can always, uh, email me, and I can help you with that.
15:10:07 Thank you.
15:10:12 All right, we can move to Parks and Rec. Hannah, did you have any comments on this one?
15:10:19 Hi, this is Hannah Shea with Parks and Recreation. You know, we didn't have any comments on this case. Thank you.
15:10:22 Okay, no problem, thank you, and we'll move over to code enforcement. Jacob has those comments for code.
15:10:29 Yeah, this is Jacob speaking on behalf of Code Enforcement. Um, code enforcement did not have any comments.
15:10:35 Or objections on this.
15:10:36 Okay, sounds good. We will move to planning, then. Jacob, was this yours, or…?
15:10:41 This was mine. Marshall.
15:10:42 Marcelo, alright. Marcelo, go ahead.
15:10:43 Yes. Um, I just had a few comments on this one.
15:10:47 I've noticed that you guys didn't, uh, provide
15:10:52 Um, setback measurements here on the north, north-south.
15:10:56 So, I'm just hoping that you are meeting that.
15:10:59 So, therefore, uh, you are still, um…
15:11:03 subject to comply with dimensional standards and your specific standards for this development.
15:11:09 Uh, I do both. Go ahead.
15:11:09 Yeah, um… Uh, we do… we… on the… on the notes, we do have the setback as the 5-foot setback.
15:11:21 I see.
15:11:18 On… on each side. Yeah.
15:11:22 So that should be okay then. Um, and I know this is just a preliminary submittal. I didn't see elevation, so also, that being said, just make sure that you're not
15:11:32 Don't exceed the 26 feet.
15:11:34 that are indicated on your comment below.
15:11:40 I believe that the… Northside, or north and south… setbacks were 5 each.
15:11:49 The… west… edge of the building to the alley was 18.
15:11:58 Yeah, I was able to see those in the front and rear, and uh…
15:11:57 And I think we have… about 30… about 30 feet on the front.
15:12:04 Yeah, those were not an issue. I think those are fine.
15:12:07 Um, I did go through and cross-referenced with code enforcement, and…
15:12:07 Okay.
15:12:12 Contention standards are not an issue here, since the lot sizes are not going to change.
15:12:18 Um, and, uh, that's about it on my comments. I don't have so many other questions?
15:12:25 Marcelo, uh, what is the parking requirement for these units?
15:12:30 Because we're only providing… it's definitely less than the number of units, so…
15:12:36 I couldn't check real quick for the, uh, for this.
15:12:37 Yeah, if you could check on that too, that'll be great.
15:12:40 Thank you.
15:12:40 Yeah, for this type of development, yeah.
15:12:42 For a townhome, it's… go ahead, I'm sorry.
15:12:44 Our understanding, it was one parking space for. each two-bedroom unit.
15:12:53 one- or two-bedroom unit.
15:12:54 Yes. So one space per dwelling unit that's a… that is a… up to a two-bedroom.
15:13:12 And then just let us know if you guys need any contact information for each individual section, and that way, as you're… as you're preparing any of the formal submittals, and kind of just go from there.
15:13:22 Okay, well, we definitely will… Uh, be in touch with, uh… Ernest Armiho about the, uh… pavement and parking and alley access.
15:13:37 Um, we… Certainly, we'll have to get that clarified before we go much further.
15:13:43 Uh, because it could… couldn't…
15:13:42 Sounds good. And the infrastructure will determine if you have to submit a site plan through us, or if you're just going straight to building permit, so that… that'll be the determining factor there.
15:13:54 Thanks, guys, appreciate it.
15:13:52 Alright, thank you.
15:13:57 Okay, well, thank you. This is, uh… Really helpful, we appreciate it.
15:14:02 This is what we're hoping to accomplish.
15:14:04 Yeah, thanks for your time, I appreciate it.
15:14:07 Thank you.
15:14:08 Alright, so we are going to move on to number 6, and that is 1405 Yale Boulevard Southeast.
15:14:15 And that's project number 2025-020141. Is there anyone here for 1405 Yale?
15:14:25 Hey, hello, John. Go ahead and walk us through.
15:14:22 Yes, this is John Stapler. Sure, let me share my screen.
15:14:33 Busy day, that's for sure. Go ahead, you can share now.
15:14:32 You guys have had a busy day today.
15:14:38 Or… Oops, my screen.
15:14:47 I think we're seeing it now.
15:14:44 Hello, guys.
15:14:49 Uh, were you… were you seeing the sign now?
15:14:51 Let's see, we were, and then it disappeared again.
15:14:55 No worries.
15:14:55 Yeah, give me a minute. Too many things. Okay. Alright, can you see this?
15:15:01 Great. Alright, so, um… you know, this application is for a sketch.
15:15:06 plan for a proposed multifamily complex at the corner of Yale Boulevard here, and Catherine Avenue.
15:15:15 Um, the existing site is… 6, you know, existing lots.
15:15:22 Yes.
15:15:20 Which would be consolidated via a plaque. See, there's an existing building on two of the… two of the lots that would… and some asphalt that would be demolished.
15:15:31 Um, right, what you can see here is a conceptual site plan.
15:15:34 Um… The building is this dark… Uh, black line, so it'd be 5 stories, the bottom story would be an underground.
15:15:43 semi-underground parking garage, so entry into the parking garage would be from Catherine Avenue.
15:15:48 Uh, and you come straight into this underground parking that's shown here.
15:15:52 Um, the exterior parking lot would be level with the first floor.
15:15:57 Um… I guess the set, you know, the first floor with dwellings, but the second floor of the building.
15:16:03 Um, and so we'd have 56 exterior park installs.
15:16:07 29 interior apartment stalls. Which is a total parking count of 85, you know, we're estimating somewhere around 85.
15:16:15 Apartment units, um, 4 stories worth of apartments. One floor worth of underground parking.
15:16:23 Uh, 3 site entrances. besides zoned MXM, which is… which, you know, allows for multifamily use.
15:16:31 The building as shown meets the required setbacks, to my understanding, so… Having said that, really, I'm just looking for initial feedback from staff. Um, any thoughts?
15:16:40 Questions, concerns I should be aware of before we… Proceed with this.
15:16:46 Sound good? We'll get to the comments then, at a glance, depending on the exact
15:16:51 height from… from finished grade going up, it… it may be restricted because of the low-density residential to the west, but I think code and planning comments will address that a little bit further, so we'll go to Water Authority.
15:17:04 Good afternoon, John. Bob Kane, Water Authority. Uh, we need to have a request for a.
15:17:09 Water and sewer availability statement, including the fire marshal.
15:17:13 Fire 1 plan, and then we have our standard note that we add to the plat.
15:17:18 existing public water and sewer may not be sized adequately.
15:17:23 Nope, that makes sense.
15:17:27 Sounds good, thank you. Uh, hydrology.
15:17:22 Any questions on that?
15:17:30 Yeah, hydrology's going to want to see green and drainage plans.
15:17:33 We don't have anything for this other than what you're showing.
15:17:40 That'll work transportations or two?
15:17:37 I'm not sure I think so.
15:17:37 Cool.
15:17:43 or one scale is a minor…
15:17:45 editorial requires 6-foot sidewalk.
15:17:49 And 5 to 6 for landscaping buffer.
15:17:53 Catherine is a local street…
15:17:56 It requires 5 feet sidewalk and 4 feet… 4 to 6 feet.
15:18:00 landscaping buffer.
15:18:01 Please provide width of existing sidewalk.
15:18:06 and buffer to determine if widening is required.
15:18:10 Number two, any future development will require
15:18:16 with TCL prior to the…
15:18:19 plan or building permit.
15:18:22 also a traffic scoping for… from…
15:18:25 would be… need to be submitted to determine if a TIS
15:18:31 would be required.
15:18:37 Makes sense?
15:18:40 Alright, thank you, Sir Till, and let's go to Parks and Rec. Hannah, do you have anything?
15:18:45 Hi, this is Henry with Parks and Recreation. We did have City Forestry comments on this case.
15:18:51 The street trees will be required along Yale Boulevard southeast at 25 feet.
15:18:56 On center, spacing, also existing trees located on Catherine Avenue Southeast appear to be in good condition and could be used towards existing vegetation credits.
15:19:06 Forestry will need to inspect trees for viability prior to credit being applied.
15:19:11 And that concludes our comments.
15:19:15 Makes sense?
15:19:17 Sounds good, thank you. And on this one, I believe Jacob has code enforcement and planning comments.
15:19:23 Yes, that is correct. Um…
15:19:26 We'll start out. Code enforcement does not have any comments on this.
15:19:30 Um, so I'm just gonna go straight into planning comments.
15:19:33 Um, John, generally, I, um, provided a lot of
15:19:39 kind of general guidance throughout the IDO in my memo.
15:19:44 Um, Robert kind of touched on it earlier, but the
15:19:46 I think the big section that I'm questioning right now…
15:19:51 is in relation to…
15:19:53 59C, building height step down. Um…
15:19:57 So because the lot that you guys are intending to build on is a
15:20:03 regulated lot. It's right next to those residentials that are
15:20:07 Um, we classify it as protected lots.
15:20:10 Um, so…
15:20:12 on regulated lots, any portion of a primary or accessory building within 100 feet of the nearest protected lot property line
15:20:20 shall step down to a maximum height of 30 feet.
15:20:23 Um, so there is some stuff to be aware of in that particular section that might apply to this because of how close it is to those residentials.
15:20:32 Yeah, that makes sense. I was not aware of that, so I appreciate you pointing that out, for sure.
15:20:38 Yeah, and I think that's gonna be, like, the…
15:20:36 And I saw it from your comments.
15:20:41 really the biggest thing at this point.
15:20:44 Um, we will need…
15:20:45 And you mentioned 30, is it… is… I'm looking at your comments right now, is it… My… it looks like it's 48, but maybe I'm looking at the wrong thing.
15:20:55 the zone district is, but the neighborhood edge is restricted to 30, because of the… the…
15:21:00 how close it is to res… to the R1.
15:20:59 Okay. Okay.
15:21:05 And then, um…
15:21:10 Due to the proposed building being planned to exist over a currently existing lot line, um, we'll be looking at a subdivision of land miner.
15:21:19 Um, to replat the two existing lots into one lot.
15:21:23 Um, I believe there is an exception out there for anything that was existing as it is current, like…
15:21:29 Prior to 1973, when the subdivision ordinance was issued, so I don't know if that
15:21:35 will play into it or not, but…
15:21:37 As I'm looking at it right now, we're gonna need to kind of unify that into one lot.
15:21:46 Um…
15:21:43 That makes sense.
15:21:46 And you could submit the site plan and the planning action at the same time if you wanted to.
15:21:50 Sure.
15:21:54 And really, after that, most everything… I did put in some calculations for parking and loading, um,
15:22:00 But I kind of want to go into that a little bit more, maybe offline.
15:22:04 Um…
15:22:05 Okay.
15:22:06 And then… pretty much everything outside of that was more general, like what to look out for as you're kind of going through. Um, do you have any…
15:22:16 specific questions that you're looking for right now?
15:22:31 Okay. Um…
15:22:20 Nope, the, um… I mean, I was mostly hoping to identify any constraints, like that building step down that was news to me, so… Um, that's helpful, so…
15:22:34 And I think that's everything I have for right now.
15:22:42 Yeah, that's probably the conversation.
15:22:42 Yeah, and as you're going through the comments, just let us know if you need additional contact information for any of the sections, or anything like that.
15:22:50 Thank you, appreciate it.
15:22:48 Sure. Thank you so much, guys. Alright, take care.
15:22:52 Have a good day.
15:22:54 We will move on to number 7, which is for 705 Old Coors Drive Southwest.
15:23:00 Um, is there anyone representing this one?
15:23:03 Hi, this is Ryan with Cartesian. I'm here for that.
15:23:05 Hey, Ryan, go ahead and walk us through that one.
15:23:08 Sure. So, we are looking to create two new lots from, uh.
15:23:14 an existing portions of, um… some town of Etrisco, uh, parcels.
15:23:22 And so, um, there is an existing, um… Sort of tire business on that lot 1.
15:23:29 And so, um, sort of our L1 lot line is following that existing fence line, and then, uh, we're kind of doing an even split of.
15:23:38 the existing portion of, um… Track 206, and splitting that up between, kind of, uh, an owner and a purchaser.
15:23:48 Um, and then, you know, while we were preparing this, we realized that there was, uh, sort of a portion of.
15:23:54 Uh, track 207 has a lot lined through that existing commercial building there.
15:23:59 So we're including that piece, um, and, you know, there is an existing deed for, um… The little portion of, um… The, uh, entire building there that we're looking to involve, and so… Um… we just wanted to make sure that we…
15:24:17 We weren't kind of missing any overlays or any kind of unique, um, stuff being along the state road here, so we decided to go to Sketch, and uh… Let you guys review this. And so with that, we await comment. Thank you.
15:24:30 Sounds good, thank you. Marcelo, are you pulling up GIS or the plat?
15:24:48 Yeah, it's… are you guys, Anna?
15:24:50 Yeah, we're seeing GIS now.
15:24:54 Thank you. Appreciate it.
15:24:54 Perfect.
15:24:48 So that's… that's the view there.
15:24:55 And then we'll go to Water Authority. Bob.
15:25:00 Good afternoon, Ryan, Bob Kane, Water Authority. Um, we have our standard comments of requesting an availability statement.
15:25:06 And adding the, uh… The note that's, um… We put on plaits, and with that said, that's all I have.
15:25:16 Any questions?
15:25:17 Um, so I guess if we do need to do that availability statement, doesn't that note go away, just because… It's kind of understood what the sizing would be, then, at that point, or… Um, because we currently had it on there.
15:25:30 Oh, you do have that con… you do have that note on there?
15:25:33 Yeah, that's Note 5 on G1 of the plot.
15:25:35 Oh, okay, so then we're… we're good. We just… we just need to figure out the sewer.
15:25:39 Because we've got that big interceptor in Coors, old cores.
15:25:37 Okay, yeah, I just…
15:25:43 But it looks like there was an 8-inch built along the west side of Old Coors.
15:25:47 that we might be able to get into. that's in that sidewalk.
15:25:51 So, um, and we wanted to check the, you know, to make sure if the… the fire flow is there, of course, was going to make.
15:26:00 Um… the requirements that you may have.
15:26:02 Okay, yeah, we appreciate the insight there, and we'll, uh, we'll let our… I know to request the availability statement, so we know what that looks like. Thank you.
15:26:14 All right, what hydrology.
15:26:11 Okay, thank you.
15:26:16 No objection from hydrology. Um, just as a general note, whenever you guys come in in the future for building permits, um.
15:26:23 We're gonna need a gradient and drainage plan. If you're gonna do 500 cubic yards of grading, 1,000 cubic.
15:26:29 1,000 square feet of… proposed building, or if you're going to do 10,000 square feet of paving.
15:26:34 Those are the minimums, so… That's whenever you guys have to develop more stuff later on.
15:26:40 But for right now, no comments. No objections.
15:26:44 And transportation's your teal.
15:26:47 Number one, alt course is minor arterial.
15:26:51 require 6-foot sidewalk and 5 to 6 feet landscaping buffer.
15:26:56 sidewalk width shown is adequate.
15:27:00 Number two, any…
15:27:01 Future development.
15:27:04 would require and approve a TCL prior to that.
15:27:08 plan or building permit.
15:27:11 Also, a traffic scoping firm.
15:27:13 would need to be submitted to determine if a TIS
15:27:17 would be required.
15:27:23 Sounds good, and Parks and Rec. Hannah, do you guys have any on this one?
15:27:20 Understood. Thank you, sir.
15:27:26 Hi, this is Hanisha with Parks and Recreation. Uh, yes, City Forestry had comments that street trees will be required along old course road southwest at.
15:27:35 25 feet on center. Also, they commented on your existing trees that, um, if they inspect those and if they're in good condition, you could use those towards existing vegetation credits.
15:27:47 Um, that's it. That, uh, concludes our comments.
15:27:52 Sounds good, thank you. I don't believe code enforcement submitted any comments for this one, so we'll go to planning.
15:28:01 I do martial overpanning, um…
15:28:03 Just to make sure, uh, can you confirm property ownership for all this partial and surrounding 705 Old Coors?
15:28:10 Ryan, uh, because they're under planning action process, uh, each property owner, uh, will be required to sign the flat.
15:28:18 Uh, I've noticed that there are several owners, um, here on…
15:28:23 Um, lot 206.
15:28:26 Here, and then, uh, two owners here on…
15:28:31 Um, locked 207.
15:28:33 So, just FYI, um, no special, um…
15:28:37 temporal progression overlays or anything like that. So…
15:28:41 That was the only comment that I have.
15:28:44 So the deeds for ownership are by Meats and bounds, sort of.
15:28:49 portions of, um, the… Uh, tracks 206 and 207.
15:28:54 So, you know. I know, um, you know, we have a unique deed for just that little.
15:29:02 triangular piece that has the lot lengthy for that commercial building there.
15:29:03 Yeah. I was noticing that, just this, yeah.
15:29:06 And then, I believe the city owns that northwesterly portion there.
15:29:11 City owns this, and then…
15:29:11 So we have a dean for that, and then, um… And then we have, you know, you need meats and bounds for the, um, portion of.
15:29:21 206 that, you know, we're essentially looking to split up for… For the two owners involved.
15:29:28 Yeah, I'm gonna go into 5 different owners, because I remember, um,
15:29:29 Ah.
15:29:30 A lot of signals all the way down, um, to right here. There are, like, 3 different owners here.
15:29:38 Awesome.
15:29:39 Yeah, I know we have a string of unique deeds for each of those. Um, are you saying that you need the chain of title to prove, kind of, the… Pre-73 timing of that, or… Or are you just looking for… still labeled?
15:29:52 The city partials, um, I mean the county partials on different ownerships.
15:29:56 Yeah. And the CD partial encompasses the whole thing.
15:30:03 We can ask Shahab as well, the city engineer, if he's available, just depending upon if there was something specific that we needed, whether it be signatures from separate property owners, or just a chain of title, and it probably goes along with the
15:30:17 With the authorization as well, whenever you're, you know, because if you're representing all the clients, or one, or kind of how that's going to work.
15:30:27 Okay.
15:30:24 Yeah, we're really just representing two owners right now, so if you need to chain a title, I guess, confirm that for us. But, you know, the deeds that we have have very specific.
15:30:36 You know, limits for which portions of these. Sort of tracks, as it were, we're using, so…
15:30:43 Okay, probably just extra detail as you're submitting, so that way we can identify exactly what's happening and not, you know, necessarily expecting, um, you know, 10 different people to sign the plaid and that sort of thing.
15:30:52 Yeah, it should just be these two, so thank you.
15:30:53 Okay.
15:30:56 And I think that's it. Was there anything else you wanted to add?
15:31:03 I know this is wrong with Cartesian, no, uh, appreciate the comments, and uh, you guys have a good day.
15:31:07 Okay, you too. Thank you.
15:31:10 Well, we will move on to our last sketch plat. They've been patiently waiting, so it's number 8 for 11708 Copper Avenue Northeast.
15:31:19 And that is 020143 for a new hotel development. So, um, Chad, are you still around?
15:31:27 Alright, go ahead and walk us through the development that you guys were proposing.
15:31:32 Yeah, uh, is it okay if you guys put up the plans?
15:31:37 Yeah, we can do that for you, it's no problem.
15:31:38 Yeah, I have my iPad, but I can't do it.
15:31:40 That's okay. Yeah, Marcelo's sharing the screen, so he'll pull up the, uh, the site plan in just a second here.
15:31:42 Appreciate that.
15:31:48 Okay. Well, in short, uh, we are proposing, uh, upper mid-scale.
15:31:52 uh, Hilton brand hotel name, Home 2 Suites, uh, probably one of the most.
15:31:59 are the most successful. upper mid-scale hotel in.
15:32:03 Hilton category, basically, you know. Uh… There's several of them we are developing at this point, and… Uh, this is a lot right next to the, uh, restaurant, uh, Italian restaurant.
15:32:18 And at this point, uh, my client is trying to purchase that lot and see if we can.
15:32:26 put this hotel over there. I do understand it's next to R1 zoning.
15:32:31 Uh, and the building height could go anywhere from.
15:32:36 60 to 65 feet. Uh, we have looked into the zoning, and I heard about that.
15:32:42 in the previous version also. About the height limit, you know, and we are aware of that, basically, at this point.
15:32:51 Uh, we have some challenges of having existing utility passing through the lot.
15:32:58 Uh, depending on how we move forward. Uh, I would appreciate if Citi would comment on those water lines, if.
15:33:06 be moved in case we have to move the building, uh, upfront.
15:33:11 Which we would go over the easement. Uh, we are looking roughly at 110, 211 rooms.
15:33:19 four-story, uh, with indoor pool. lobby area, fitness center, uh, and it would be more like an extended stay kind of thing, but.
15:33:31 No cooking equipment in the guest room, just a sink, fridge.
15:33:38 Okay.
15:33:36 Uh, and dishwashers in each room. Uh, that's about it.
15:33:42 That'll work. We'll go through the comments. Yeah, the biggest thing that I saw is, depending on the placement of the building, either you'd have to try to rearrange access, or, you'd have that height limitation because of the
15:33:54 Proximity of the R1 there, but we can… we can…
15:33:57 talk through that as you start moving forward, but we're gonna… the Water Authority for, uh, um, with Bob King.
15:34:03 Bob Kane with the Water Authority. Um, we provide written comments, we have a note that we put on the plat concerning the existing public waters.
15:34:12 tour, just in case it's not developed. With your development, future buyers will be aware of that.
15:34:19 Um, so we need you to request a water and sewer availability statement.
15:34:22 and include the fire marshals Fire 1 plan. Um, and then we do have that existing water line on the site.
15:34:29 And so what we do in with the Water Authority is we have you contact 811.
15:34:35 who will spot that line, and then a surveyor will then come… men and establish the location relative to the property lines.
15:34:44 Um, it looks like we have easements that are shown there. We need to make sure.
15:34:49 that the water lines within those easements. And then, um… pretty much at that point, from the sketch I'm seeing now, if that's… if that's accurate, then you should be in good shape.
15:35:01 Because the water lines are within. drivable areas, and it doesn't look like we're gonna have landscaping or… anything like that on your site, so… Um, just make that request for the availability statement, and…
15:35:13 Get with 811 to, um… and a surveyor to make sure we.
15:35:17 Can put those properly on the plan. And that's all I would have.
15:35:26 Thank you, appreciate it. We'll go to hydrology.
15:35:23 Understood, thank you.
15:35:34 Alrighty, thank you. Um, let's see, we're gonna need to see… I don't have any… Reading transplants, I have an approved conceptual grading drainage plan is required prior to approval.
15:35:44 And then, uh, we're gonna need a full… Green drainage plan prior to building permit.
15:35:55 Alright, we'll go to Sertil with Transportation.
15:35:52 Yes, sir.
15:35:54 All right, thank you.
15:35:57 Number one, Copper Avenue and Copper Place.
15:36:02 are both local streets require 6… a 5-foot
15:36:07 Sidewalk and 6-foot landscaping buffer.
15:36:11 sidewalk with Sean along the…
15:36:15 or avenue is adequate.
15:36:17 Please provide width of sidewalk and buffer along Copper Place.
15:36:23 To determine if, uh, new or
15:36:27 a wider sidewalk is required.
15:36:32 Number two, any future development will require
15:36:35 and approve a TCL prior to site.
15:36:39 plan or building permit.
15:36:42 also a traffic scoping.
15:36:45 form would, uh, need to be submitted to determine if
15:36:50 that GIS would be required.
15:36:55 Thank you.
15:36:56 Thank you, and Parks and Rec, Hannah.
15:36:54 Understood, thank you.
15:37:04 Hi, this is Haneshay with Parks and Recreation. On this case, we had, um… City forestry comments.
15:37:14 And I'm gonna read to you. So, street trees will be required along Quantabo Boulevard northeast.
15:37:19 25 foot on center. Existing trees located on site appear to be in good condition and could be used towards existing vegetation credits.
15:37:28 City Forrester will need to inspect those trees prior to credit being applied.
15:37:33 They also have, um, an item. Regarding, uh, large stands of mature trees existing at the site.
15:37:41 So, um, they're asking for you to consult with Urban Forestry to coordinate site design to preserve and protect existing trees.
15:37:49 and or tree mitigation. Um, per… IDO52C site design to avoid sensitive lands.
15:37:57 Because this is one of the items, large stands of mature trees goes under that.
15:38:03 code. So, um, yeah, that concludes our comments. Let me know if you have any questions.
15:38:09 Yes, ma'am.
15:38:12 Alright, and code enforcement didn't submit any review comments on this one, so we'll just go to planning, and I had reviewed this one. Um, the use is allowed, and the
15:38:23 Zoning allows a particular height for a dimensional standard, but the issue is what we…
15:38:29 mentioned before is, um, in the IDO Section 59 for neighborhood edges,
15:38:34 If you're within 100 feet of R1, it's basically a protected lot and regulated lot.
15:38:40 then your height limitation is 30 feet.
15:38:42 Um, so just depending on the exact placement there, and then on that west side of the building there, along the
15:38:51 zone district of the R1, it'd require a 15-foot landscape buffer and a 6-foot opaque wall, just to separate for buffer and screening. So just to let you know there. And then as you're going through the comments, just
15:39:02 Um, let us know if you have additional questions.
15:39:06 Yeah, so, obviously, we do understand we are close to R1.
15:39:12 And the way we have placed the building at this point, I mean.
15:39:16 schematically, it, uh, traffic-wise, flow-wise, you know, guest. perspective, every… all the parkings are in the front, which… What they like. Uh, and if you… Would if my client perceives this further.
15:39:32 Uh, what are the steps we'll have to go through in terms of, uh, hearings and.
15:39:38 through which departments, you know.
15:39:39 Oh, sure, so it's most likely dependent. If you need a platting action, it will be for our group through the DHO or Development Hearing Officer, so depending on if there's going to be an additional planning action or not at all.
15:39:50 Um, otherwise, it would be a site plan submittal prior to, um, building permit.
15:39:55 Um, and then if…
15:39:55 Mm-hmm.
15:39:58 your, um, referencing the height. If you're request… if you wanted to try to request any type of exception to that
15:40:05 Um, height limitation, you could request a… or apply for a variance through… through the ZHE. It would just… you'd just have to do a really good job at justifying it, how it's not going to create a negative impact, since you're going to be abutting the R1 residential.
15:40:22 And would that be, uh, go through Council and Zoning public hearing?
15:40:26 It would be a public hearing, but not through council, so you would start at code enforcement, and then you'd go upstairs to the, uh, zoning hearing examiner on our second floor, and so they would, um, get you finished up on
15:40:38 Um, how to apply for that and get you on one of their agendas. And they would kind of walk you through the criteria of what you're going to need to show to justify that exception.
15:40:50 Got it.
15:40:51 But that is it. That is really all we had. If you had any other questions, just let us know, and we can provide any additional contact information for you.
15:40:59 Sure, we will look forward for it.
15:41:02 Alright, well, I think that's it. It's been quite a day, so if anybody else has any questions, that'll be that.
15:41:11 Okay.
15:41:10 Uh, that's it from my end. I don't know if we had a civil engineer on the call, but I think he was supposed to be, but that's fine, we'll circle back with you guys with more information.
15:41:21 Okay, sounds good. Yeah, let us know what questions you have, we're happy to help.
15:41:25 Okay.
15:41:28 Alright guys, well, everybody have a good day, and we will see you tomorrow.
15:41:32 Okay, you too.
15:41:33 Thanks, have a good one.
15:41:36 Good job, everybody!
15:41:35 Thank you!
