Excerpts from Plan Commission Minutes of Apri15, 2007 Cal. No. 07-15 Petition of DR. BRIAN PE WELL to amend the O-1 PUD Office District Pla ed Unit Development located at#2 North Country lub Road to allow for a building expansion Ms. Stickle was sworn in by Mrs. Althoff. Ms. Stickle presented the recommendation of staf£ The petitioner is requesting to amend the Office District Planne Unit Development to allow for the construction of a 1,980 square foot addition to the b ilding known as Suite 2 in the Southeast portion of the development. The PUD was originally approved in 1994 allowing for 11,40 square feet of office space. Instead the petitioner constructed a 5,500 square foot buil ing and never installed landscaping to specifications of the approved landscaping plan. In March of 2000 Robert Penwell requested an amendment allow ng for the construction of a 1,500 square foot building and an increase of 16 parking paces. It was further proposed to reduce the total allowable office space to 7,000 squar feet, the petitioner had also agreed to install and maintain landscaping as approved through the Planning Division. At that time staff felt that the PUD process wa being used to make incremental amendments to the development, however, staff rec mmended approval of the request because it was ultimately decreasing the density of t e development. Then Council voted to approve the amendments with the understan ing and statement by Robert Penwell that the area to the South of the proposed devel pment (now known as Suite 2) would remain greenspace. In October of 2001, Council motioned to approve another a endment to the PUD allowing for additional parking spaces bringing the total num er allowed to 55, the motion failed. Then in November of 2001, Council approved t e amendment after Dr. Brian Penwell stated that he had no intentions of building a third uilding and a neighbor stated he was in support of the amendment as Dr. Penwell ad met with him and discussed the proposed amendment (increase in parking) and the e would not be a third building. Currently the subject site contains a 5,580 square foot ffice building, a 1,705 square foot office building and 54 parking spaces. The petitioner plans to construct the proposed building expansio on the area that was to be reserved as greenspace in the 2000 petition as well as wa stated at the Council meeting. The current site has been developed in accordance with the site lan dated September 9, 2001 as attached to Ordinance #01-1OS approving parking ame dments to the Planned Unit Development.
