<br />approved by the City prior to consideration of the final development plan. <br /> <br />4. The City may purchase portion of the Sunrise site approximately 80 feet in width along the entire north property <br />boundary for inclusion to Rosebrook Park. <br />5. Because very few of the assisted senior residents will have vehicles, off-street parking space (33) for employee, <br />residents and visitors is sufficient. Staff will work with the applicant to demonstrate proof of parking to one (1) space <br />per living unit. <br />6. If the Concept plan were approved, the PUD would be written to allow an assisted living facility with an underlying <br />zoning of R-3, General Residential with certain development restrictions. <br />7. The project as proposed is in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the City's Comprehensive Plan and <br />Title 10 of the City Code (Zoning). <br /> <br />Ayes: 5 <br /> <br />Nays: 0 <br /> <br />Motion carried. <br /> <br />6c. Planning File 3178. A request by Midland Hills Country Club, 2001 Fulham Street, for a Conditional Use Permit <br />(CUP) to allow the construction of a 37,500 square foot clubhouse on the site of the existing 1959 Clubhouse. <br /> <br />Chair Klausing opened the hearing and requested Thomas Paschke to provide a verbal summary of the staff report dated <br />January 12, 2000. <br /> <br />Thomas Paschke explained the request for a 37,500 s.f. club house to replace the existing Country Club. The setbacks <br />must meet City standards; 160 feet from the east property line; the parking lot is 180 feet from the east property line. Mr. <br />Paschke explained the three building entrances and parking layout. A 30-foot parking setback is required. <br /> <br />Screening includes additional coniferous trees along the parking and the east property lines. <br /> <br />In the future the Country Club may request approval of a pool-cabana and a parking lot expansion, which would require <br />an amendment to the conditional use permit. The building could be expanded up to 10% without an amendment to the <br />conditional use permit. <br /> <br />Thomas Paschke noted grading, landscape, site lighting (with "shoe box" downcast lights), parking and storm water plans <br />need to be detailed before Council review and decision. The elevation of the proposed Country Club will be eight to ten <br />feet lower than the existing building. Staff recommends approval with conditions. <br /> <br />Member Wilke asked for clarification of the use of the basement area. (not a banquet area). <br /> <br />Member Egli asked if all exterior lights would have to be updated? (yes) <br /> <br />Chair Klausing asked for a listing of requirements to issue a conditional use permit; consistency with the Comprehensive <br />Plan, zoning code requirements, traffic, health, safety and welfare. <br /> <br />Member Egli asked for details of the slopes along the east side of the structure; developer will answer these questions <br />with additional plans. <br /> <br />Rick Christenson, architect for Midland Hills, explained the changes to be made at the Country Club and the grading and <br />slopes along the east side. The design of the building will be a "country English style". The building will be fieldstone, <br />stucco, batten, a random slate like roof shingles. Elevations of the south and north side were displayed. A portion of the <br />new building will be higher and some rooflines lower than the existing building. The parking lot would be four feet lower <br />than the floor elevation of the new building. The parking lot will be resurfaced at the same grade and size as currently <br />exists. Evergreens along the east side would be planted on 20-foot centers. Hedge materials will be planted to reduce <br />headlight problems. <br /> <br />Member Wilke asked if material cut from the existing hill could be used for berming and evergreens. <br /> <br />Member Cunningham asked if changing the grade by ten feet would reduce the height of the roof. <br /> <br />Member Cunningham asked whether the course will close during construction? (No, temporary buildings will be used). <br />
