June Lake developers and staff discuss easements, parking and ADA access
Loading...
Summary
Staff asked developers of the June Lake (Lot 7, Podk) commercial site to correct an access easement, show an overall access path from Lot 8, finalize parking numbers and revise platting; the applicant said they will replat, confirm maximum restaurant square footage and continue working with staff before the voting meeting.
At the March 23 work session, staff (Mr. Spires) reported concerns on STP1989-2025 — the June Lake commercial site at 3060 June Lake Boulevard — and asked the commission for guidance on several outstanding issues, including an access easement that overlaps parking, timing of buildout relative to adjacent Image Studios, and accessibility improvements.
"Staff does not see any issues with the vehicle circulation upon full build out. However, staff does see issues with the timing of the build out with this site and the site to the east, Image Studios," Mr. Spires said, asking the applicant to revise the final plat to expand an easement and show utility maintenance access.
John Gore (who identified himself to the commission) and the project representative explained they will replat to correct the easement and add a utility easement for water infrastructure. The applicants also said they will provide parking calculations that show the maximum square footage allowed for restaurant uses so staff can confirm compliance; current calculations show 104 required minimum spaces and 108 provided for a scenario with 9,000 square feet of restaurant use.
Commissioners asked for clarity about pedestrian connections and whether the proposed corner crossing served logical pedestrian routes. One commissioner said he was comfortable with the applicant’s crosswalk and ADA routing after the applicant explained that ADA parking and front-door access were on the north side of the building. The commission requested the outstanding plat and parking clarifications be resolved before the voting meeting and indicated this item should be held off consent until those answers are provided.
The applicant said contractor selection and permit drawings are planned once the planning commission feedback and staff follow-up are complete. No formal action was taken at the work session.
