Summary

The council approved a conditional use permit allowing a hardcover increase to 32.14% (a 7.14% exceedance of the 25% maximum) for an addition at 3645 Parkway after the owners proposed an infiltration trench and roof runoff routing as mitigation; motion passed 3-0.

Staff (Smith) presented the application from owners Robert and Amy Dircks for an addition at 3645 Parkway that would reduce reported hardcover from 33.77% to 32.14% but still exceed the 25% limit. To mitigate the exceedance, the applicants proposed installing an infiltration trench in front of the house and routing roof runoff into that trench. Councilmember Emily Scherschligt said she had no concerns.

Councilmember John Studer moved, and Councilmember Scherschligt seconded, to accept the recommendation and findings of staff and the Planning Commission and approve the conditional use permit to exceed the hardcover limit by 7.14% for the 3645 Parkway addition. The motion carried 3-0.
