Planning Commission Regular Meeting Minutes March 18, 2025 Page 6 Mr. Grittman reviewed the Conditions of Approval: 1 1. The applicant maintains a policy that prohibits tenants from storing personal vehicles 2 on the premises. 3 2. No conversion of the property to any type of housing that is not specifically designated 4 for assisted living may occur without a new Conditional Use Permit demonstrating 5 compliance with all of the terms of the applicable zoning in effect, including unit 6 count, parking supply, and other factors. 7 3. The retaining wall is designed by an engineer if it remains more than four feet in 8 height. 9 4. The trash enclosure is constructed of materials that match those of the principal 10 building. 11 5. The applicant modifies the south building exposure to add architectural features and 12 interest to both the wall and roofline, subject to staff review and approval. 13 6. The applicant works with the City to sign the emergency vehicle lane along Foss Road 14 for no parking. 15 7. The City Engineer reviews and approves the grading and drainage plans. Substantive 16 modifications to the site plan resulting from grading plan changes may result in 17 additional official review of the proposed plan. 18 8. The weed-barrier material under the deck is pervious fabric to ensure compliance with 19 impervious surface regulations. 20 9. Additional landscaping plant materials are provided in the rock mulch edge along the 21 south side of the building to help mitigate impacts of the lessened setback in this area. 22 10. Sustainability elements recommended by the Planning Commission and approved by 23 the City Council may be included in any final approval. 24 11. The proposed sign will be reviewed separately and permitted under standard sign 25 permitting procedures. 26 12. The applicant constructs the project consistent with the finally approved plans. 27 13. The applicant enters into a Conditional Use Permit Development Agreement 28 guaranteeing the terms of the permit and operational elements. 29 14. The approval recommendation incorporates the findings of fact noted in this report, 30 and as included in the draft City Council Resolution. 31 32 Mr. Grittman reviewed the Findings: 33 1. The site is zoned R-4, accommodating multiple-family housing as a permitted use. 34 2. The R-4 Zoning can also accommodate senior housing as a conditional use in the 35 density range proposed by the applicant. 36 3. Senior Housing – and in particular assisted living housing – presents a much lower 37 demand for parking than other types of residential that would be allowed on the parcel 38 by right. 39 4. Assisted living housing, given the lack of automobile use by the tenants, creates a far 40 lower traffic generation than other types of housing that would be allowed on the 41 parcel by right. 42 5. The site is narrow in dimension, and is encumbered by a storm sewer along the north 43 property boundary, limiting the site buildable areas. 44
