ON THE AGENDA

Here are some of the items the commission will consider Monday.

MOBILE HOME ORDINANCE

The commission will reconsider an ordinance that replaces and

expands the city’s procedures for mobile home park conversions. The

commission will discuss whether a town hall meeting is necessary

before it votes. The City Council wants new rules to give it more

authority over the conversion process and to delineate the procedure

for mobile home park closures.

WHAT TO EXPECT

“We’ve had a lot of discussion with a lot of the key players who

have had input into this, and I would like to see us move it to the

council as quickly as we can without rushing it,” Chairman Bruce

Garlich said.

EXCEPTION TO REQUIREMENTS

The commission will consider a request from Mike McDaniel and

Joseph Bower for an exception to city requirements for minimum lot

width and area to subdivide a lot into two parcels. The lot is in the

3000 block of Fillmore Way.

The width exception is necessary because the two parcels are 49

feet narrower than the 100-foot minimum lot width required by city

code. The area exception is required because city code requires a

minimum 12,000-square-foot lot. The first parcel is proposed at 5,345

square feet and the second is proposed at 6,084 square feet.

WHAT TO EXPECT

If the parcels are subdivided, they will fit in with the majority

of the parcels on the rest of Fillmore Way, in terms of width and

area, say planning staff members.

“They’ve made the case for the [exception], so I suspect we will

probably do that, but you never know.” Garlich said. “There was some

discussion in the study session whether the findings for the

[exception] were up to snuff ... . That whole area is one we’re

always trying to improve, so I think it’s a benefit to allow that to

happen.”

PERMIT APPLICATION

Werdin-Creekside LLC is requesting the Planning Commission’s

approval to subdivide three parcels at Creekside Commercial

Development into six parcels. The property is near the southeast

corner of Bristol Street and Randolph Avenue. It is requesting a

permit for off-site parking and for shared driveway access to a

public street.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Planning staff members don’t expect any major negative land-use

effects from the subdivision.

“I don’t think it’s very controversial, so I think it will

probably go through,” Garlich said.
