<br />1 d) that the proposed request/project will impact the market value of contiguous properties <br />2 for the following reasons: Reduced market values are not a criteria that appears to be <br />3 impacted by the proposal. However, marginalized property value increases in <br />4 comparison to other properties adjacent to a liquor store, may exist. Additionally, <br />5 insufficient data is available to show that market value of other similar uses in the <br />6 "buyers shed" will not be harmed. <br /> <br />7 e) that the proposed request/project will impact the general public health, safety and welfare <br />8 for the following reasons: Public health, safety, and welfare concerns have been <br />9 expressed, yet the data is lacking to establish precise conflicts with the proposed use. <br />10 More data may be appropriate, although, there do exist public policy concerns relating <br />11 the separation of liquor sales from other products. <br /> <br />12 f) that the proposed project is not compatible with the City's Comprehensive Plan for the <br />13 following reasons: The data, relating to use and traffic counts, is inconsistent between <br />14 experts. Accordingly, the proposed use and impacts are inconsistent with the <br />15 comprehensive plan. Specifically, the comprehensive plan estimates and data regarding <br />16 capacity and acceptable or unacceptable traffic level of service (grade "D") is <br />1 7 inconsistent with the data and assumptions contained in the report prepared on behalf of <br />18 the applicant. <br /> <br />19 Member Stone said there is a public policy debate in the legislature regarding liquor in grocery <br />20 stores - is this a circumvention of the law? <br /> <br />21 Member Ipsen asked the Commission to evaluate "a-f'. <br /> <br />22 Chair Traynor noted that if any of these findings are met, it is appropriate to deny based on <br />23 health, safety, welfare, traffic and congestion. <br /> <br />24 Member Blank supported the Stone motion. Member Peper supported the Stone motion, <br />25 preferring to have other SuperAmerica information to evaluate. <br /> <br />26 Roll call: <br /> <br />27 Ayes: Blank, Peper, Bakeman, Stone, Ipsen, Traynor. <br /> <br />28 Nays: None <br /> <br />29 Motion to recommend denial is approved 6-0. <br /> <br />30 <br /> <br />31 ....10 Minute Break.... <br /> <br />32 (During the break after action was taken on item 6a, Rose Variance, Chair Traynor was <br />33 approached by an adjacent property owner to the Rose property who was opposed the request and <br />34 was prepared to present his concerns/opposition to the Commission.) After reconvening the <br />35 meeting, Chair Traynor asked the Commission to reconsider the Rose Variance request in light of <br />36 this information and due to the fact that the item was moved-up on the agenda. <br /> <br />37 <br />38 Motion: Chair Traynor moved, second by Member Bakeman, to reopen the Rose Variance <br />39 hearing and to rescind the motion of approval, pending further input from residents within 350 <br />40 feet, and continue the hearing to the Commission's February 4,2004, with full notice being <br />41 given, and to recommend to the Council an extension of the 60-day review deadline for an <br />42 additional 60 days. <br /> <br />43 Ayes: 6 <br /> <br />Page 9 of 11 <br />
