May 28, 2020 PC Minutes <br />Page 2 <br />Staff found that the proposed project generally conforms to the standards outlined in the PUD general <br />plan and City Code. Staff recommends approval of the draft resolution approving the PUD amendment <br />and site plan for Victor Place, subject to the findings and conditions listed in the resolution. Staff also <br />recommends the Planning Commission hold a public hearing and take all public comment. <br />Commissioner Tjernlund asked staff to clarify the parking recommendation. Lindahl explained that if all <br />parking spaces are full, the driver would not be able to turn around and would have to back out of the <br />drive aisle. Staff recommends striping one of the northernmost stalls in the dead-end area as "no <br />parking" to allow for the ability to turn around. <br />Leonard Pratt, Pratt Ordway Properties, introduced himself as well as John Ordway and Jeff Nordness <br />who have been working on the project together. Pratt stated that Kidsability, which is currently located <br />in a different building in Victor Gardens, will be the tenant. The other tenant is unknown at this time. <br />Pratt shared a movie with the Planning Commissioners that shows the elevations of the proposed <br />building. <br />Chair Kleissler asked about the location and visibility of signage from Frenchman Road. Pratt stated <br />that the signage bands are underneath the gable of the roof. <br />Chair Kleissler opened the public hearing at 7:40 pm. <br />Gracen Kennedy, 4665 Victor Hugo, Unit 8, is concerned with the traffic that will be added to the Victor <br />Gardens development. Kennedy asked if the access point could be moved to Frenchman Road instead <br />of Victor Path. Staff Juba responded with stating that Frenchman Road is a County road and <br />Washington County only allows a certain number of access points. Victor Path was originally designed <br />as a frontage road and to accommodate for a commercial site on that parcel. Kennedy also suggested <br />speed limit signs posted on Victor Path. <br />Daniel Garcia, 4665 Victor Hugo, Unit 10, suggested having a traffic study done for Victor Path and <br />would also like to see speed limit signs posted. Juba stated that for a development like this, there <br />typically wouldn't be a traffic study done, but the location of street signs can be further reviewed. <br />Michelle Beck, 4644 Victor Path, Owner of Paws Pet Hospital. Beck does not think the traffic influx <br />from Kidsability will be too much, but would like to see a meeting about a potential stop sign. She also <br />stated that the aesthetic of the building is very nice. <br />Marilyn Acker, 4589 Victor Path, Unit 3, stated concerns about the increased traffic. There are blind <br />spots on Victor Path and people tend to drive faster than 30 mph. The association requires that guest's <br />park on Victor Path and this continues to cause a safety concern. Acker suggested that Leopold be <br />changed to a left- and right-hand turn intersection. Juba stated that the County has specific four-way <br />access points. Acker would also like to address low visibility with parking allowed on the street. <br />John Johnson, 4589 Victor Path, is concerned about the additional traffic leaving the new site. Cars <br />parked on the street creates blind spots and a narrow driving lane. He wondered how the speed be <br />
