phase along the northeastern portion of the site. Mr. Tate added that other changes 
include a significant area reduction in Phase 1 which is a mix of commercial and 
commerce park uses due to concerns from the neighbors on the scale of the flex

Carlos Ortega has questions about the donation from the billboards towards public 
parks in the area and wants to ensure accountability with those funds. Mr. Tate 
responded by discussing the height of the proposed multifamily units and adding that a 
total of 579 dwelling units are proposed across the PUD. Mr. Tate added that a 
maximum height of 48 feet is proposed for the billboards, which is allowed by the 
Zoning Ordinance. Mr. Tate stated that a separate account would be created for the 
funds going towards parks. 
 
Chair Abegg asked if the units in the casita product will also have private backyards. 
Mr. Tate responded that private backyards will be provided for each unit and that 
street improvements will be made on adjacent streets, including a traffic signal at the 
adjacent intersection. 
 
Chair Abegg appreciates the dressing of the poles for the billboard signs and 
discussed street improvements plus other development in the general area. 
 
PUBLIC COMMENTS: 
 
Patrick Nasser appreciates the changes made to the layout of the commerce park 
portion of the site, but now sees an issue with the impact from this commerce park 
area to the proposed casita development next to it. Mr. Nasser asked for the removal 
of the commerce park area from the site and wants to know the specific height of 
three-story apartments proposed. Mr. Nasser would like clarification on the number of 
dwelling units proposed across the entire PUD. Mr. Nasser stated that the density of 
18.2 dwelling units per acre is much higher than other multifamily projects in the area 
which have a density closer to 12 dwelling units per acre. Mr. Nasser stated the 
reducing the height of the multifamily from three to two stories would by default reduce 
the density and parking requirements, allowing for more open space. Mr. Nasser 
would also like to know the height of the proposed billboard signs. 
 
Gwen Kowalski appreciates the changes made to the project as she lives east of this 
development. Ms. Kowalski would like for the warehouse buildings to be re-oriented as 
to not block views of the mountains for her, and to help reduce the height further plus 
reduce semi-truck traffic in the area. Ms. Kowalski is excited about the new 
development but has concerns about the uses proposed. 
 
Kevin Joyner echoes the comments made and added that the community has 
concerns with the three stories and density proposed for the multifamily portion of the 
site. Mr. Joyner added that the billboards proposed are also of concern. 
 
Dan Penton discussed the proposed billboard locations along the Loop 202 freeway, 
noting that there are lots of these already. Mr. Penton is largely opposed to billboards, 
although the ones proposed here look better than the others that exist already and 
have a community benefits. Mr. Penton stated that these billboards would set a new 
minimum standard moving forward and would like for the angle on the displays to be 
modified to avoid impacts to the adjacent community. Mr. Penton stated the brightness 
of the billboard signs should be reduced and turned off after 10pm. Mr. Penton stated 
that the orientation of the two larger commerce park buildings would help block noise 
from the freeway to the adjacent casita development unit. Mr. Penton stated that this 
latest proposal is a compromise.
