1:15Seeing no one in the audience except for an applicant who's not coming down this week.
1:21We will close the public comment and get started with the briefing.
1:28Good evening, everyone.
1:29My name is Jillie Rowland.
1:31I am going to be presenting for tonight's meeting.
1:35So we have a total of um items four through 12 for the routine section, and items 13 through 21 will be on the non-routine section.
1:45So I'll go ahead and start with item number four.
1:48So item four is um ET26400034.
1:54That is a um use permit for first extension of time.
1:59The site was reclassified back in 2003, and the previous development plan showed that there were office buildings on approximately 15 acres, and none of the buildings were constructed.
2:10Since this is a new project, the conditions of the zone change um are not applicable to the site, and the waiver and a waiver to those are also not required.
2:19So when UC 230891 was approved, the waiver for encroachment into air space was withdrawn without prejudice.
2:28The applicant is requesting an extension of time due to market adjustments, um time of development and financial delays, um, and staff recommended approval.
2:38And there are no changes proposed to the previously approved project.
2:43Enterprise town board recommended approval.
2:45We received three cards in protest and one letter in protest.
2:49Item number five is a tenative map, TM2650063.
2:55That is for a one industrial lot on 2.24 acres.
3:01Um it's going to be located north of Pebble Road.
3:03The site is currently undeveloped, but it's been approved for office warehouse buildings and outdoor storage, and access will be provided from Pebble Road.
3:12Enterprise Town Board recommended approval, and we did not receive any approval or protest letters.
3:18Item number six is TM2650065.
3:22That's a two-lot um commercial tentative map on 1.1 acres.
3:29This is located on the northwest corner of Pinecrest Street and Flamingo Road.
3:33The site has been approved for restaurant buildings with drive-throughs and outdoor dining and drinking.
3:38Paradise Town Board recommended approval, and we did not receive any approvals or protest letters or cards.
3:44Item number seven is UC 260210.
3:47This is a use permit to allow outdoor storage and a design review for the site.
3:51The plans um are located on an industrial site, and this includes an existing equipment rental and sales business, and the applicant is proposing just to add outdoor storage on the exterior of the building.
4:05Um, the use permit is required because parts of the screening um is not it starts from six feet and goes up to eight in certain areas, so that's why the use permit was required.
4:17Um we did a design review for the site, and we recommended approval.
4:22Um Paradise Town Board also recommended approval.
4:25We receive three cards for approval and one card in protest.
4:29Item number eight is UC 260228.
4:34This is a use permit to allow a place of worship in conjunction with an existing office complex.
4:40Um the complex consists of five buildings, and the subject building, building five, which is um the easternmost building will include the place of worship, and there's um ample parking on the site.
4:54So staff recommended approval, Paradise Town Board recommended approval.
5:00We received one letter in approval and two cards in protest.
5:02Item number nine is UC 260229.
5:06This is a use permit for household pets in conjunction with a proposed recreational or entertainment facility within an existing shopping center.
5:15So this application is um what we call a a cat lounge in a sense.
5:20Patrons can pay a fee to come in, hang out with the animals.
5:25Um we did have a significant amount of protest letters and a petition that came in the came in via email, and uh concerned neighbor will probably show up tonight to pull it off consent to discuss.
5:41Um so I did a little bit of research.
5:44So the one approval letter that we did get was from uh residents from the subdivision to the east.
5:52We uh we recommended approval, Spring Valley recommended approval.
5:58We received five cards in protest and three letters in protest.
6:02The cards and letters were from residences to the north and east, and the business owner and a business owner from the shopping center on Spring Mountain in Rainbow.
6:11So if that gets pulled tonight, we'll be probably hearing that first.
6:15So just a heads up on that.
6:21I I spoke to the property manager.
6:24Um for those of you who remembered assembly person, assembly meant uh Nuyan.
6:31Gave her my number and so she called me, and uh she she said that she was she had sent one and she was gonna come and pull it off.
6:40So we're gonna hear that separately.
6:48Um item number 10 and 11 are companion items.
6:52So item 10 will be heard tonight and will stay with um tonight's uh meeting, but item number 11, we're gonna we will request to delete it.
7:01It needs to be heard over at the BCC.
7:03Um that was an oversight on our part.
7:05The previous approvals were approved with BCC, so it needs to be heard back at BCC.
7:10It's just a design review for um an office warehouse building.
7:14So the associated vacations for a portion of right-away um for Russell Road and for Rogers Street to accommodate um detached sidewalks, and then the design review is just for the office warehouse building.
7:27So we'll only hear item 10 and we'll delete item 11.
7:31It's gonna go to tomorrow's meeting.
7:34Item number 12 is um will be led uh presented by Martin and Mark this evening.
7:42Um this is just for amending the count um the Clark County Master Plan for the heat mitigation and um other policies that are forthcoming.
7:54So on to the non-routine section.
7:57Let's just take a quick break there and see if any any commissioners have any questions about the non-routine items.
8:09So for the non-routine section, that's items 13 through 21.
8:13So item 13 is UC 260142.
8:17This is a holdover use permit for the banquet facility.
8:21Um, I was here when I think when they this was a few weeks ago.
8:25So we we the first hold was from the April 21st planning commission meeting.
8:30The second hold was from the fifth planning commission meeting.
8:33Um, unfortunately, we received a letter from the applicant, the meeting of the excuse me, on May 26th, after the Spring Valley Town Board.
8:44They voted to deny it, and then because the applicant was a no-show, but then the applicant showed up at the end of the meeting.
8:51So hopefully they show up tonight.
8:54Um, I just wanted to let everybody know that if we hold it again tonight, they will pay for a renotification fees, and we'll have to hold it a month to the July 7th planning commission and the June 9th Spring Valley Town Board.
9:08So I'm just hopefully they show up tonight, and then we can discuss what we need to discuss.
9:20So I feel like I'm having deja vu.
9:24Didn't we hold this multiple?
9:26I thought I felt like this is like the fourth time that we held this.
9:30It was held twice with planning commission, but it was also held at town board multiple, so it seems like it's four times because they just didn't show up to town board two times, and then they didn't show up um, they didn't come to planning commission, so we held it twice.
9:46And to sorry, to have them go back.
9:48So this has been on our this is the third time it's appeared on our agenda.
9:55I swear I thought it was more than that.
10:00And they and they have never appeared at they've been asked to go to town board on at least three occasions.
10:05So they didn't show up to two, and then the third one, which was May 26th.
10:11They were supposed to go.
10:12Because we told them here, and I told them on the record, if you don't go, then we're gonna deny this with prejudice.
10:19You're gonna it's gonna take you 18 months to get this done again.
10:23Well, I don't know if we're gonna roll the tape, but I imagine that's what I said.
10:27Okay, and so that the last one they they showed up at the end of the day.
10:31At the end of the meeting, that's correct.
10:32They showed up at the end.
10:34Um, they sent an email to uh Mike Shannon and to our planner, and they said there was a some kind of channel board issue that we're gonna do.
10:42What exactly do they want to do here?
10:43They want to just a banquet facility.
10:45They want to have a bank facility.
10:47I have a copy of their letter if you want to see it that we got.
10:56Do you want your I I was just going to say that I thought it was three times they didn't show up at town board.
11:02But my question becomes is when they showed up the fourth time.
11:07Okay, did town board a lot of our town boards will trail till the end?
11:12Because you don't know if somebody got caught in traffic, if if something had happened.
11:16So if they don't show up, they'll trail the item until the end.
11:20And then they'll vote on it.
11:22And if that's what happened, then if but I don't know.
11:27The town board rec sheet.
11:28I was trying to figure that portion out too.
11:29The town board rec sheet just says it was denied, and then it says they showed up at the end.
11:34Do we so I don't know if they actually trailed it?
11:36Do we know if the town board's recommendation is based on the failure to appear, or that or uh, or was it a substantive denial, or we just we don't I'm not sure.
11:48I um I have a copy of the rec sheet, but it says that they're recommending for them to come go back to town boards.
11:53Go back to the okay, and so if we did that, then they have to renot it, they have to do some fees, and it's gonna take correct.
11:58It'll take another month because we need time to renotice.
12:02Okay, all right, thank you.
12:03Um Commissioner, I'm sorry, Vice Chair Mohica.
12:05Any questions or concerns on that particular item?
12:08No, but no questions, but I I do agree with Commissioner Reutman.
12:14We I do remember telling them they had to do that.
12:17Yeah, I think we're all in agreement that they need to have to get renotified and pay to pay their fees if we decide to go that route.
12:24Uh okay, go ahead, continue, staff.
12:27Item number 14 is UC 260232.
12:31This is a use permit for vehicle maintenance and repair in conjunction with an existing vehicle sales facility within an existing office warehouse complex.
12:39The southern three units um of building B will consist of an existing 10,721 square foot vehicle sales facility, and they're proposing to add vehicle maintenance and repair use.
12:52Um, this is located basically 15 feet from the residential use to the west, where 200 feet is required, and that's why the use permit is being requested.
13:02Um the requirement for parking, they there is ample parking.
13:06Um, so I guess that's the positive part of it, but we're recommending denial of the use permit because it's we find that it's too close to the residence, it's to the west.
13:15Spring Valley um town board recommended approval.
13:19We received one card, an approval, no cards and protests.
13:22Item number 15 is WS 260202.
13:27This is a waiver development standards for reduced setback, reduced building separations for existing accessory structures in conjunction with it an existing single-family residence.
13:37Um so there are two car ports within the front yard, four sheds, and two gazebos within the rear yard.
13:44There is an active CC pro violation for building without a permit.
13:48So we're they're basically asking to reduce um setbacks and building separation.
13:53We recommended denial, town board recommended approval, and we received one card of approval, no cards in protest.
14:00Item number 16 is WS 260206.
14:04This is a waiver to increase the proposed fence height in conjunction with an existing single family residence.
14:10The applicant is requesting to construct an 11-foot high.
14:16I would say it's like a privacy screen wall within the rear yard.
14:20It runs parallel to their north property line, so that you don't have view of their pool.
14:26It's probably better if they when we see it on the plan.
14:29It's it's kind of freestanding, it's set back about a foot away from their, I believe it's their E's property line.
14:36So it's just kind of like a privacy screen, but it is 11 feet high.
14:40Um, so we have there's a request for a waiver for that.
14:44We we recommended denial um to Enterprise Town Board recommended denial.
14:48We don't we'd not did not receive any approvals or protest cards.
14:53Items 17, 18, 19, and 20.
14:56These are companion items.
15:00Um I'll start with item 17.
15:01That's the plan amendment.
15:03That is a request to go from neighborhood commercial to business employment.
15:08Um staff recommended denial.
15:11Um it is surrounded by undeveloped branches state neighborhoods, so we don't find that it's compatible to the to the neighborhood.
15:20Um Spring Valley Town Board recommended approval.
15:24No, um, we did not receive any approval cards, but we did receive two cards in protest.
15:29The companion zone changes to reclassify the site from RS20 to IP, which is industrial park.
15:36Um we also recommended denial since we are not supporting the plan amendment.
15:41Spring Valley Town Board recommended denial.
15:44Um we did uh receive two cards in protest.
15:48No no um letters or cards for approval for that one.
15:52Item nine item nine for nineteen is the companion vacation.
15:58That's to vacate a portion of right-of-way for Quail Avenue to accommodate detached sidewalks, and we're recommending approval for this.
16:06Um Spring Valley Town Board recommended approval, and we received two cards in protests.
16:12The last item or one of the second to the last item is WS260215.
16:17This is item number 20.
16:19This is waiver development standards to reduce buffering and increase parking and a design review for a proposed office warehouse for the site.
16:28Um basically one of the waivers um is to increase the parking because the maximum number of parking spaces allowed per Title 30 is 23, and the applicant is proposing 42 spaces.
16:42A waiver is also required to reduce the landscape area for buffering and screening.
16:47Um, so Title 30 requires a 15-foot wide landscape buffer with an eight-foot decorative high eight-foot high decorative screen wall.
16:56The plans are proposing a five-foot wide landscape buffer along the north property line, an 11-foot wide landscape buffer along the east property line, and a one-foot landscape buffer along the west property line.
17:06So, but since they're reducing it away from the 15, the waivers are required.
17:11Staff recommends denial.
17:13Um, Spring Valley Town Board also recommended denial, and we received two cards in protest.
17:18And lastly, item 21 is the ordinance.
17:22Um, this is to review to amend title 30 regulations.
17:25Um, this is related to NRS for legal non-conforming lots, RM18 standards, cannabis uh special events, light manufacturing, and a correction to accessible space and access design requirements.
17:41And again, um Martin and Mark from the advanced planning team will be um taking care of that presentation for tonight.
17:49Thank you very much.
17:51Um, so I'll open it up to commissioners for any questions or additional comments on the non-routine action items.
17:57Um Vice Chair Mohica.
18:00No questions, thank you.
18:03So I have I have one question.
18:04So if I could just ask that on the last item, I read it, I read Jason's letter.
18:09I was more confused than ever, but I didn't want a separate briefing.
18:13Can you just kind of give us the clip notes really quick?
18:20So we're not doing this during the meeting.
18:23On the ordinance, correct?
18:24Yes, so for the record, Martin Geese uh with advanced planning, uh pleasure to be here this this uh evening.
18:30Um so this is uh this ordinance includes some changes to bring our code and compliance with NRS and also to uh address two different uh directions from the board.
18:42Um the language for legal non-conforming lots.
18:45Uh some of you may recall on our prior our code prior to January 1, 2024, we had R3 zoning district that allowed uh single family residents.
18:55Uh that's now RM18 zoning, which does not allow single family residence.
19:00So if there is a recorded subdivision uh that was recorded prior to January 1, 2024, uh we are amending our code to make it clear that they can still develop a single family residence and it will be subject to the RS2 uh district standards.
19:19Um so we have again the change to the non-conforming lots and then the RM18 footnotes and the development standards, those two changes correspond with with that item.
19:29Um the changes related to cannabis.
19:33Uh this is again to uh bring the county code in compliance with um current Nevada revised statutes in the 2023 legislative session AB 277 uh was signed into law, and that directed the cannabis compliance board to no longer issue medical cannabis dispensary licenses uh unless the establishment is located in what they define as a covered jurisdiction.
20:00And the cannabis compliance board uh I'm sorry.
20:07Uh Mark's got some detail on the cover jurisdiction.
20:10I'll let him jump in here.
20:12Commissioner Kalarski per Nevada revised statutes as used in this section covered jurisdiction means a local governmental jurisdiction that has adopted local cannabis control measures which prohibit the operation of adult use cannabis establishments in the local governmental jurisdiction.
20:35Appreciate you having that already.
20:36Um so since we don't prohibit it, we have we've comply with the uh NRS statutes.
20:42Um the cannabis compliance board, uh we consulted with them, they've confirmed that they no longer issue medical dispensary licenses, and they're actually in the process, if if not now completed, of converting existing medical can uh dispensary licenses to just adult cannabis retail.
20:59So we are deleting dispensary uh and updating the associated definitions for uh medical dispensary.
21:07So the sale of cannabis will be adult retail, so retail is retail in terms of the sale of cannabis.
21:13Um there's no changes to where it may be sold or any other standards, it's just bringing us into compliance with the state licensing and the fact that they no no longer issue that uh medical dispensary license type, they just have the adult use retail.
21:32And what about special events?
21:33That confused me a lot.
21:36This you may recall under uh prior code, uh, prior to the Title 30 rewrite um special events.
21:44Uh we had uh an ability to waive or vary the residential um use separation requirement under today's current code.
21:53Uh the only relief from that separation requirement would be to pursue a use permit for a recreation facility.
22:02Uh that's not necessarily the most appropriate avenue for permitting uh kind of a waiver to that operational standard for a special event.
22:11So we are going to be deleting um the uh sort of it's more of a relocation rather for the following standards cannot be waived or varied from the layout and design standards, so that will allow residential adjacency to be uh waived or varied, so it'll they can get a use permit to waive that standard, which they would not be allowed to today.
22:34Um and uh the change for light manufacturing.
22:40Um this is a similar type of change.
22:42We are currently they are not able to waive the separation requirement from non-industrial uses and residential adjacency.
22:51Uh in the IL and IH, they can ask for location and operation waivers and variances.
22:57Um we will have um an amended condition for the location and operation for the IP district, which is that manufacturing shall occur within an enclosed building, and that cannot be waived or buried.
23:08So it just provides a little bit of flexibility for um the IP district while still not allowing that process for IL and IH, those more intense industrial districts.
23:19And then lastly, we had changes to our standard accessible and ban accessible spaces.
23:24This is to bring us into compliance with um ADA allowances and provisions for ban accessible parking spaces.
23:32Our diagram uh essentially uh uh depicted too much um loading space and parking space.
23:39There's a couple options they can do for band spaces, either eight feet space and eight feet of loading or eleven feet of space uh parking and five feet of loading zone.
23:50Our diagram had 11 and 8, which is in excess of uh what ADA requires for those two options, uh and then we're clarifying that it still has to have the 98 inches of vertical space.
24:03Uh happy to answer any other questions you may have on those.
24:07Yeah, you're very welcome.
24:09All right, thank you, staff.
24:10Um seeing no other questions.
24:12I will bring us to the last part of our meeting, which is public comments.
24:16Um so it's another section of our meeting where we open it up for public to come make comments, and seeing no one rushing down to make public comments, we're gonna close this section of the meeting and adjourn until our meeting um at seven.
24:30Thank you, Vice Chair Mohiko.
24:35I can't text you, but thank you guys.
