limited to a maximum of forty feet(40')within the DDA and IDA and thirty five
feet(35')in all other locations.Additional height may be permitted if a conditional
use permit is approved by the City Council.
C. DISCUSSION:
• The building elevations, date stamped by the City on November 12, 2019, show the height of
the building to be 55-feet in height.As stated in the applicant's narrative, date stamped by the
City on November 12, 2019, the additional height of 59-feet is to achieve the programming
requirements and design aesthetics of the headquarters building. The applicant's narrative
further states the requested increase is also critical in providing the necessary staffing
requirements, floor to floor clearances, design elements and roof top mechanical screening
features.
• The executed development agreement (Instrument #100011692) associated with the Eagle
River development (where the subject site is located) contains landscape, site design, and

City Council prior to the issuance of a zoning certificate.
• The subject site consists of a lot and a portion of an adjacent lot located within Mixed Use
Subdivision No. 5 (Eagle River development). Since the site consists of two (2) separate
properties the applicant should be required to submit a lot line adjustment application
combining the lot and the portion of the adjacent lot into one property prior to construction of
the office building. The lot line adjustment should be reviewed and approved by staff. Upon
City approval of the lot line adjustment, the applicant should provide a recorded lot line

CONCLUSIONS OF LAW:
1. The Council reviewed the particular facts and circumstances of the proposed conditional use (CU-07-
19) in terms of Eagle City Code Section 8-7-3-2, "General Standards For Conditional Uses" and has
concluded that the proposed conditional use:
A. Will, in fact, constitute a conditional use as established in Section 8-2-3 of this title (Eagle City
Code Title 8) for the zoning district involved since a building height exception may be permitted
in the C-3--DA(Highway Business District with a development agreement)zoning district with the
approval of a conditional use permit;
B. Will be harmonious with and in accordance with the general objectives or with any specific
objective of the Comprehensive Plan and/or this title(Eagle City Code Title 8), since there are no
inconsistencies with the Comprehensive Plan and since a building height exception is permitted
with the approval of a conditional use permit with the C-3-DA(Highway Business District with a
development agreement) zoning district and the Comprehensive Plan designates this site as
Commercial;
C. Will be designed, constructed, operated and maintained to be harmonious and appropriate in
appearance with the existing or intended character of the general vicinity and that such use will not
change the essential character of the same area because the proposed office building will be located
within an area that has commercial uses and a state highway located adjacent to the site. The site
contains a buffer area with mature trees located adjacent to the state highway.Also,the design and
architecture of the proposed office building is required to be reviewed and approved by Eagle River
