Adopted Minutes Page 3 of 6 Regular Meeting of February 14, 2017 General Business (8.01) Variances for a Carport at 1035 West Medicine Lake Drive (Ricardo and Cynthia Armijo — 2016100) Community Development Director Juetten reported Ricardo and Cynthia Armijo are requesting variances for an oversized carport to remain in the front yard, located at 1035 West Medicine Lake Road. Since the Planning Commission met, three letters have been received from surrounding neighbors in support of this application. The Planning Commission recommends approval of this application with screening and required the gable ends and eaves to match the color and stucco of the residence. Community Development Director Juetten provided the following information in response to questions from the Council: Staff has not looked at other carports for comparison, but the neighborhood is older and properties do contain carports and detached garages. There are three neighbors most affected by the carport that signed a letter in support of the variance request, which Council has received. The Planning Commission recommends approval of this application with screening and required the gable ends and eaves to match the color and stucco of the residence. These conditions are included in the resolution. Motion was made by Councilmember Johnson, and seconded by Councilmember Prom, to adopt a Resolution Approving Variances to Allow a Carport in the Front Yard for Property located at 1035 West Medicine Lake Drive (2016100 - Res2017-071). With all members voting in favor, the motion carried. (8.04) Approval of Purchase Agreement for Northwest Greenway Property PID: 05-118- 22-33-0001 (previously item No. 6.15) Councilmember Willis commented he is not opposed to the acquisition of the property, but is opposed to the price that has been negotiated with the property owners. Parks and Recreation Director Evans provided the following information in response to questions from the Council: • The property was on the market for $325,000. Staff knew that it would be difficult to lower the price, so an appraisal wasn't completed. • The City made offers on this property in 2002, 2007, and 2009. • The property had been on the market at approximately $800,000 but dropped to $325,000 in the last few years. • There is currently road access and utilities on the property and an appraisal would probably value the property between $240,000 and $300,000. Adopted Minutes Page 4 of 6 Regular Meeting of February 14, 2017 This property is significant in order to make the connection around the Elm Creek wetland and Schmidt Lake Road. It could be purchased privately and have homes built on it, but staff is not comfortable taking the risk of having someone build a home in the middle of the greenway. One other parcel needed to complete the greenway is on the east side of Juno Lane. It's possible the City would build an overlook on the property, but a wetland delineation needs to be completed first. Motion was made by Councilmember Carroll, and seconded by Councilmember Johnson, to adopt a Resolution Approving Purchase Agreement for Northwest Greenway Property PID: 05- 118-22-33-0001 (Res2017-072). With all members voting in favor but Willis, the motion carried. (8.02) Advertisement for Bids for the Northwest Greenway Trail Segment Three Construction Project (140005) Parks and Recreation Director Evans reported the budget for this project is estimated at $1,200,000 with $700,000 funded through the Park Dedication Fund and $500,000 through the Capital Improvement Fund. If approved, this segment of the project would be completed in October 2017 and includes: 1) Elm Creek wetland — north boardwalk 2) Trail gap south of the Aspen Hollow Development 3) Trail connection and improvements to Cheshire Parkway Trail and Lake Camelot Park 4) Alternate — Cheshire Parkway boardwalk Motion was made by Councilmember Johnson, and seconded by Councilmember Carroll, to adopt a Resolution Authorizing the Advertisement for Bids for the Northwest Greenway Trail Segment Three Construction Project (PR140005 — Res2017-073).
