Lots 40, Block 3, Wildridge Subdivision 4540 Flat Point Single Family Residence Applicant: Michael Farr Eric Johnson, Planning Technician, made a brief staff presentation and stated that staff recommends approval. Chairman Evans responds to the leiter that the Commissioners have received regarding "the hump" and talks about the ridge lines vs. the height of this hump. Applicant Michael Farr explained the time that he has spent on this design to achieve the best views and architectural style. He has also spent a great deal of time designing according the Design Review Guidelines and feels that he has achieved the best possible design for that tot. J Chairman Evans asked if there was any public comment regarding this application Dave Wilkenson, who lives on the corner, feels that the Commission needs to take an average of the landscape and grading for this site. He also feels that "the hump" sits up there pretty high and it should be taken down and that the grade also needs to be amended. The project will affect his view corridor. Chris Cook states his concern is the natural grade and "the hump" as well. The hump needs to be re -graded and leveled so that the house does not stick out, he would like to see a lower ridge line impact so that his view corridor may be saved as well. Chairman Evans states that if the applicant wanted to build on the "hump" that he could, also, that he is not exceeding the 35 foot height with his design. The applicant responds that those are true statements. They discuss that if he grades down further it will cause problems with the drainage around his house and design of his house. Commissioner Wolfe states that he only has one comment and that is, that the whale back (south) side of the house is 32 to 33 feet above grade, and he feels that this completely complies with the zoning and design review criteria and he strongly approves of the design. Commissioner Karow, states that this applications does indeed meet and comply with design review guidelines.

Buz Didier, states that none of the neighbors have a problem with the rezoning, however we would like to see some buffering done to help separate the commercial areas from the residential, for instance a berm or some trees, etc. Amy Phillips, resident, states that she would like to insist that they do some sort of buffer along with some sort of public right of way, either a walk/bike path or something that would provide public access to the commercial area from Eaglebend. Chairman Evans, explains that the buffer is something that if the owner wants to put that into the resolution he can, but that the Commission has no way of insisting that they do a buffer. He goes on to explain at the time of design review perhaps these items could be addressed. Commissioner Wolfe then questions the applicant about going on the record with the buffer requirements.
