REQUEST FOR APPROVAL:
A.
Minutes of the October 7,1996, Planning and Zoning meeting.
FARNWORTH: On the minutes it states that there was discussion between the
Commissioners. In the past we usually had that as a dialog or understood what we
discussed. Does that affect us in anyway? Is it still on public record or do these minutes
become public record? Is it still on tape?
LEGAL COUNSEL: The minutes become public record but it is also on tape. It is required
to maintain the tape as part of the public record. So you have both of them. From a legal
standpoint it is covered. If you want more clarification for your own record keeping you can
request that.
A line has been added below the signature line that reads "A TRANSCRIBABLE RECORD
OF THIS MEETING IS AVAILABLE AT EAGLE CITY HALL".
Moved by FARNWORTH and Seconded by BRINTON to approve the minutes of the

OLD BUSINESS:

Highway 55.
BRINTON: It should be noted that you should have received a separate package that has
a final copy of the Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law. Is everyone looking at the
revised copy?
FARNWORTH:lf I may ask staff for more clarification of the agreement on the berm on the
East side.
MARK: We got a letter from ITD with some minor issues that they with our proposed
settlement agreement. We also got a letter from Homeowners Association agreeing to the
settlement. The Developer was in today agreeing to the settlement. It looks like we are
that much closer to having a consensus to the agreement to alleviate that problem.
FARNWORTH: I have one more question about the pressurized irrigation. The developer
said something about he was not going to guarantee that. It shows here that we are going
to require that. This takes care of the pressurized irrigation for all phases, 1 thru 7.
MARK: That particular portion of the findings is pointing out what staff's discussion was.
If you look at the actual conditions of approval it should say that the irrigation shall be
provided where it can be provided and if one of the phases doesn't have any irrigation
water than the irrigation system will not be used in that phases. Page 16, Item #15. They
will certify that the irrigation system will meet that criteria for the homes it serves as
opposed to every home.
BRADLEY: There is more than adequate enough irrigation to supply all lots of all phases
of Trail Creek. There is enough pump capacity.
MARK: The developer told us there probably would not be enough. That is why he did not
want us to say provide to every lot. He wanted us to say to supply to every lot that they
are serving.
DISCUSSION CONTINUED
MARK: We have a letter in the file that says they have to use up all their irrigation water
in their subdivision before they use potable water for irrigation. That was a requirement of
the developer. If you would like to amend condition #15 that could be amended.
LEGAL COUNSEL: You can't amend the conditions on the~arliE!rphases. YoU can
change the conditions on the subsequent phases. You shouldl!mòteth~t you already have

a moti angy,oted on what we tried to present here to the extent that this is not what you
intend or tofhe extent that you want to reconsider you can move for reconsideration of
this iss ~~þe and a otion.
Moved by BRINTON to approve the Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law in the
matter of an application for Revised Preliminary Plat of Echo Creek Subdivision #5,
6 & 7 as presented and Seconded by MAYER.

I have been in the garage door business since 1979 and run it out of my home. Virtually
no drive-in traffic from customers. My main concern is storage of doors and office space
to get out of the home and future investment for retirement.
Discussion between applicant and commissioners.
BRINTON: Have you seen the conditions that the Design Review Committee has
recommended and do you have any problems with them?

LEGAL COUNSEL: Design Review Committee needs to come up with a reason why their
recommendations on plants are better than the applicants.
DISCUSSION CONTINUED
BRINTON I recommend that we approve the Design Review, DR-15-96, for Garage
Door Business and take only the first conditions that have been placed on it by the
Design Review in addition to the standard design review requirements that they
forwarded from their October 31st meeting, that at the Northeast corner of the
parking lot the planter be reduced in length to accommodate regular parking spaces
in the parking area there and that we ignore the change in the planting schedule to
the area and I would recommend that you work with ACHD on the area between your
property line and the State Street asphalt to see about putting lawn in. Seconded by
MAYER.
LEGAL COUNSEL: Did that also include staff recommendations.
BRADLEY: #1 that we modify to reflect the revised plan.

RECOMMENDATION TO DESIGN REVIEW COMMITTEE:
MAYER: Make a recommendation to the Design Review Committee that if they make
changes they need to provide an explanation of why they are making the changes.
MARK: I will relay that recommendation to the Design Review Committee.
BRINTON: Where do we stand on the change of makeup of the Design Review
Committee?
MARK: I think the Mayor moved it from the Agenda of the 12th to the 26th. On the 26th
the appointments will be made. The Mayor appoints and the Counsel confirms. All of the
appointments are up. All of the appointments are over two years old. Everyone of the
committee will be notified from what the Mayor said that the appointment times are up,
thank you for serving we will be appointing five individuals, some of them may be ones that
are already on it.
BRINTON: Will one be an architect?
LEGAL COUNSEL: At this point the City Council has not made a specific determination
of the professional requirements for that committee. I don't know if they will actually make
a code requirement to have certain professionals on the committee.
DISCUSSION
Planning & Zoning Commissioners make a recommendation to the City Counsel that
an Architect and a Landscape Architect be appointed to the Design Review
Committee.
