AGENDA ITEM VI B STAFF ORIGINATOR: Jeff Smyser P & Z MEETING DATE: January 9, 2008 TOPIC: Public Hearing (Continued): Conditional Use Permit: Planned Unit Development Preliminary Development Plan/Preliminary Plat Conditional Use Permit: Motor Fuel Station Conditional Use Permit: Car Wash Conditional Use Permit: Outdoor Dining (Coffee Shop) Main Street Village, Azure Properties BACKGROUND The proposal by Azure Properties is a planned unit development (PUD) called Main Street Village. The proposal includes creating four commercial lots on a portion of 28 acres of property at the southeast quadrant of the I -35E interchange at Main Street. Development on the remaining 19 acres has not been designed. However, because of stormwater and transportation planning needs, the use of the entire site must be considered. The zoning ordinance defines two types of PUD: rezoning and conditional use permit. A commercial PUD can be approved as a conditional use permit. The site is within the area analyzed by the I -35E Alternative Urban Areawide Review (AUAR). The AUAR's mitigation plan requires some information and review criteria that typically are not applied to development projects elsewhere in the community. Issues From December 12, 2007 Report The P & Z opened the public hearing on the project at the December 12, 2007 meeting and continued it. The staff report for that meeting listed a number of unresolved issues. City staff had instructed the applicant not to submit new plan sheets with the revised layout of parking and circulation until staff had met with county highway department staff. However, a number of other items could have been addressed in the interim. On January 2 staff contacted the applicant about these issues. We then received some new information late afternoon on Thursday, January 3. The new report for the January 9 meeting had to be assembled, printed, and distributed to the Board on January 4. This did not allow time for City staff to review the new information completely. Depending on the information submitted, it may be possible to resolve some of the items on the list. However, it is unlikely that staff will be able to recommend approval of the project on January 9. We are facing statutory deadline pressure. The February P & Z meeting is February 13. This leaves only one City Council meeting, February 25, before the deadline of March 1. The
