Altoona Plan Commission Meeting - April 8, 2025

The Altoona Plan Commission met on Tuesday, April 8, 2025, at 4:30 PM in the Council Chambers. The meeting was called to order by Acting Chairperson Matthew Beeran. After roll call and approval of the previous meeting's minutes, the commission considered a site plan application for a 12-unit multifamily building in Bartlett Crossing. The application was approved unanimously. The meeting also included updates on the upcoming fire station study presentation and the police department report.

Public Comments & Testimony

  • No members of the public spoke during the citizen participation period.

Discussion Items

  • Site Plan Application for 12-Unit Multifamily Building (Bartlett Crossing, Phase 1): Planning Director Taylor Greenwell presented the application for a 12-unit multifamily building on a 0.93-acre parcel (Parcel #1820122709244309009), zoned R3 multifamily. The building design is similar to other buildings in Bartlett Crossing, with single-car garages on the north and south sides and additional surface parking in front. The site meets all setback requirements (50 ft north, 32 ft south, 21.46 ft front, 41 ft rear), lot size minimum (40,510 sq ft vs. 8,000 sq ft minimum), parking (18 required, provided via 12 garage stalls and 6 surface stalls, plus extra space in front of garages), building height (approx. 35 ft, well under 45 ft max), and driveway widths (20 ft and 24 ft). Primary material is lap siding, which requires Plan Commission approval. Staff recommended approval with standard conditions.
  • Commission members asked clarifying questions about garage doors (single-car), the parking layout, and occupancy rates of similar buildings in the area. No opposition was raised.

Key Outcomes

  • Approval of Site Plan: Commissioner Dean Roth moved to approve the site plan per staff recommendation; Commissioner Bill Hapner seconded. The motion passed unanimously by voice vote (all aye, no opposed).
  • Upcoming Meetings: The Planning Director noted a special Plan Commission meeting scheduled for April 22. The fire station study presentation, originally expected in February, was postponed to the second meeting in May (likely May 13). The annual police department report was also mentioned as appearing on the next City Council agenda.
