Planning Commission Comments Greg S. asked if Active Energies had cleaned the clutter and pallets outside their property at 102 Main St. Janet H. clarified the Town's Code enforcement officer has addressed the issue and is working with the new owners towards compliance of the code. They have removed the pallets behind the store and have been given a warning on not using their required parking spaces as storage for equipment. 7. Planning Director Report Janet H. informed the Planning Commission that she accepted 3 new design applications, which will be presented in the following meetings. She updated the PC on the proposed routes of the Holy Cross Transmission Lines. The concern is the route in town. There is a citizen advisory group started: `Bury the Line' Eagle County Citizen Advisory Group — to educate the public and work on the alternative to have the entire line in Minturn's valley buried. The trailer park fire resulted in the town condemning 6 trailers. The owner requested inspection and the remaining trailer were also condemned. The tenants were informed of the hazardous conditions and given until May 30th to find another place to live in. 8. 719 Main Street — Design Review Application Janet H. introduced Scott McDonald and Stephanie Lambourn, owners of the property at 719 Main St. She clarified on the site plan submitted in the packet that the parking lot turnaround driveway cut width was too large per CDOT's regulations. Being 10-12' feet is the maximum width allowed for highway 24. The applicant does meet the 5% snow storage and landscape requirements, as well as the setbacks. The project is a new single family home, with 1 accessory apartment. Burke H. expressed concern on the parking scheme, if the garage is not utilized specifically for parking cars instead for storage. Greg S. appreciated the maximum height of 28' mid -roof and the fact the building mass on the front is reduced in scale, providing more light to the neighboring properties. Janet H. stated the plans could not be approved as is with the driveway cut width and tum around because it is against code. This can be worked out at staff level if the design is approved. Motion by Greg G., second by Greg S., to approve the design review application of 719 Main St. with the condition that the driveway cut and turnaround, is redrawn to code requirements and approved at a staff level. Motion passed 4-0. Note: Lauren Dickie and Jeff Armistead were excused absent. 9. Future Meetings: • May 9, 2018 • May 23, 2018 • June 13, 2018 • June 27, 2018 10.
