Plan Commission forwards Cutting Edge PUD amendment to commissioners with favorable recommendation
Summary
The commission recommended approval to the County Commissioners of an outline plan amendment allowing a single-family residence at the Cutting Edge (Jim Baugh) PUD while retaining the existing permitted automotive repair use; the recommendation included a waiver of final hearing and conditions tied to earlier PUD approvals.
The Monroe County Plan Commission voted 7-0 to forward a favorable recommendation to the County Commissioners for PUO-24-5, a proposed outline plan amendment to the Cutting Edge PUD that would permit the petitioner to live on-site while continuing an existing automotive-repair use.
Staff presenter Daniel Brown told the commission the Cutting Edge PUD (approved originally under Ordinance No. 2006-22) already lists automotive repair among permitted uses. The petitioner, Mark Foster, is asking to add a single-family residence use so he may live in a one-bedroom space created by an interior remodel while continuing automotive electrical repairs (primarily for English Roadsters) in the existing building. The petitioner stated there would be no exterior building expansion; the only exterior change proposed in the application packet is a building-mounted sign.
Staff confirmed most original PUD conditions were met but identified two outstanding items: a missing landscaped island at the northwest corner of the parking area and the recorded written commitments referenced in the original conditions. Staff recommended a positive recommendation to the County Commissioners contingent on the petitioner installing the missing landscaped island and parking vehicles within designated spaces.
Attorney Jim Bohr (representing petitioner Mark Foster) told the commission Foster would install the landscaped island and that the business activity would focus on electrical work rather than body or paint work. Bohr and Foster said they had letters of support and written consent from the property owner included in the petition.
The commission moved, seconded and voted to forward a favorable recommendation with the original PUD conditions (sidewalk dedication/connectivity, fixed or anchored parking barriers, recording of commitments, acceptance of the Cutting Edge use list, and right-of-way dedications) and staff's additional condition that the missing landscaped island be installed. The motion included a waiver of the final hearing and carried 7-0.
