Planning Commission says owner must show revisions and get Final Use Permit for work at 7184 Clifton Road
Summary
The Planning Commission reported that unapproved changes at 7184 Clifton Road exceeded thresholds requiring Chapter 11 compliance; the owner was told to document revisions on the approved Plan of Development, obtain a Final Use Permit and provide county permits and well-location certification.
The Planning Commission on Nov. 24 and the Town Council meeting packet reviewed noncompliant construction at 7184 Clifton Road and said the owner must correct paperwork and secure required county certifications.
The Commission told the council (via its report) that owner D. Guglielmi made changes to the approved Plan of Development without Town approval, including modifications to driveway and parking size/location, well placement and retaining walls. Because the construction exceeded 2,500 square feet, the project is subject to Chapter 11 of the Town Code and the changes must be shown on the approved plan so the Town maintains an accurate record for state review of land-disturbing activity.
Nut graf: The Commission recommended that the owner provide a Final Use Permit and the County's certificate for the well location, plus copies of all County permits; the Town Engineer (Scott Peterson) reviewed the revisions and made specific documentation requests to ensure compliance.
Details: The briefing notes state the Commission and the Town Engineer have communicated the required corrections to the owner in a series of emails from Nov. 3 through Nov. 30, 2020; the owner attended the Planning Commission meeting and "assured the Planning Commission that he understood the requirements clearly," but the report notes that when actual compliance will occur is unknown.
Council and Planning Commission staff emphasized that the Planning Commission must have final documentation on the Plan of Development and any county-issued approvals before the Town can consider the work closed out; failure to obtain the Final Use Permit and required documentation could affect the Town's ability to account for state-regulated land-disturbing activity.
Next steps: The Planning Commission will await submission of corrected plans, a Final Use Permit application and county certification of the well location; the timing for compliance was not specified in the report.
