2011-767 and -768 (appeals of Planning Commission final orders re: Kickbacks Restaurant expansion plans): the parties have agreed to a settlement.  The LUZ Committee will be asked to remand 767 (zoning exception appeal) back to the Planning Commission to be considered in conjunction with a second administrative deviation request that will be filed for 768.  Karl Sanders representing the restaurant stated that the parties are not at liberty to discuss the parameters of the settlement agreement before the Planning Commission hearing, but it covers items such as parking, lighting, security and landscaping and has been signed by both parties.

 

2012-14 (rezoning on Lane Avenue from PUD to PUD): public hearing will be opened and continued. A neighborhood meeting is scheduled for next week.

 

2012-62 (FLUM land use change from MDR to HI on Old Middleburg Road N.): Mr. Reingold stated that the applicant has requested a change in the land use from HI (heavy industrial) to LI (light industrial), but the PUD rezoning in companion bill 2012-63 doesn’t match the light industrial land use and the inconsistency will have to be rectified at some point.

 

2012-82 (rezoning on 18th Street W.): Council Member Lee requests deferral. The applicant’s representative agreed to defer for one cycle.

 

2012-99 (development agreement for warehouse project on Trout River Blvd.): Council Member Lee requests deferral. The applicant’s representative agreed to defer for one more cycle, noting that this will be the third deferral of this item.

 

2012-136 (rezoning on 103rd Street): Mr. Reingold has a question about why the Planning Department proposes to allow some conditions to be done by minor modification and others not.

 

2012-137 (sign waiver on San Jose Boulevard): Mr. Reingold understands there may be an additional condition to add.

 

2012-139 (waiver of road frontage on Stratton Road): Mr. Reingold wants the Planning Department to explain a potential confusion about whether the waiver applies to the whole lot or to a portion of the lot; the map was unclear.
