Certified survey map: The commission voted to accept a certified survey map (CSM) for the former American Girl campus at Fairway Place and Eagle Drive subject to resolving embedded staff comments.
Sidewalk determination (Resolution 2026‑24): Staff recommended the commission recommend that the Common Council adopt Resolution 2026‑24 determining the need for sidewalk installation along the north side of Lisa Lane. Commissioner Paulson moved, and the commission amended the resolved clause to specify the stretch from Parmenter Street to 7620 Lisa Lane; the commission approved the amended recommendation and will forward it to the council for final action.
Zimbrick off‑site parking (Resolution 2026‑25) and site plan review: The commission approved findings and recommended approval of Resolution 2026‑25 granting a conditional use permit for an off‑site parking lot for Zimbrick at 3202 Parmenter Street. The commission also approved the related site plan review contingent on a set of contingencies shown on the screen, after discussing landscape protection for two tree islands, bioswale/drainage review by engineering staff and warranty obligations for plantings.
First Stone Pumps USA (SIP): The specific implementation plan for a manufacturing and office facility for First Stone Pumps USA at 3139 Deming Way was recommended for approval with seven contingencies. Applicant representatives said parking counts account for shift changes and possible future expansion; commissioners praised the architecture and the addition of a manufacturing use to the business park.
Five‑year street improvement plan: The commission reviewed and approved the city's five‑year street improvement plan. Commissioners discussed prioritization concerns, including the High Road reconstruction (planned for 2027) and cost increases; staff said High Road is planned for reconstruction in 2027 and that some cost estimates have increased but the project remains on the plan.
