Planning commission reports rezone approval for small counselor property; concerns about lane width and runoff

A planning commission representative summarized a recent review that included a request to rezone a property to allow a roughly 0.5-acre building lot. The commission passed the application after public comment and discussion of site-specific issues. "It never been signed, so it was not in effect," the planning representative said of a prior PUD reference and described comments raising concern about a 20-foot-wide city lane and stormwater runoff and well impacts.

Councilmembers asked staff to follow up on the lane width and water issues before development proceeds. Jeremy and planning staff will coordinate timing and zoning details with the county and report back to the council; the planning representative said the commission did not receive substantive complaints and described the meeting as brief.
