The Planning and Zoning Commission convened on January 28, 2026, to address two major development proposals and routine consent items. The meeting featured public testimony regarding the West Meadows development, followed by staff reports and deliberation on a Conditional Use Permit for excavated fill and compensatory storage, and a Major Land Subdivision for the Westbury First residential project. The Commission moved both substantive items with recommendations for approval containing specific conditions.
Item 5A: Conditional Use Permit CD 2025-007 (West Meadows - ML Group One LLC)
Item 5B: Major Land Subdivision CD 2026-001 (Westbury First - Bigelow Homes LLC)
Good evening and welcome to the January 2020 uh January 28th, 2026 Planning and Zoning Commission meeting. Uh calling the meeting meeting to order. This is the open comment period. This is a time in the agenda that allows members of the public to address the commission on items that are not on tonight's agenda as a public hearing. If there is anyone uh here or listening that would like to address the commission, please do so at this time. Is there anybody online? Please come up and state your name. Hi, Mark Schuleman. I live at uh 4177 Berkshire Road, which uh I'm gonna talk about West Meadows development. Um I'm here to speak just because we're next door neighbors and we have a concern of flooding. And what I wanted to do, can I hand out a sheet of paper to each of you? Is it something like this? Is that the one that I sent? There's perfect, thank you. Okay, okay. Well, good evening. I'm asking you to table the uh CD 2025-007 cup for West Meadows until some court technical items are resolved. Not that I'm an out know everything about all these technical items, but I've just reviewed all the documentation that's been sent since the first EAW was approved, and then I saw some just discrepancies that I think are pretty major. Um first the flood fringe fill math has changed dramatically. The EAW said there was going to be about 240,000 cubic yards of earth that needed to be excavated, and now the current one says 73,000, which is uh for both fill and compensatory storage, and that seemed to me to be a huge swing. And I don't even know if the 73,000 covers the footprint of the buildings that want to be that they want built on the property, and second, the stormwater claims rely on a proof of concept, not a final model, and the staff notes say uh the Q2, Q10, and Q100 peaks would all be reduced and drawdown would be within 24 hours, but the city simultaneously says water resources will provide revised comments, and I haven't seen any revised comments, it's all based on theory instead of actual. And uh second, the traffic impact report isn't finalized, so we don't know uh that drives requirements also for what they're looking for. And then the wetlands uh from my not from what I understand from reading it, a replacement and sequencing plan is required before final approval of any of this. And so I'm I'm just as I said, going through all the documents that hundreds of pages that have been submitted. And then finally, uh we us in the West Meadows HOA wanted uh public notice clarity. We're an HOA of 100 homes, and on the first quote, neighborhood meeting, I think less than a half a dozen people were made aware of this development, just like on the end of the Cal de SAC, but as an HOA, the whole neighborhood is supposed to become aware and be told and invited to these meetings. And if we don't know what we don't know, we can't show up. And so the request is to table it until uh the storage is reconciled for fill versus compensatory, a peer reviewable stormwater floodplain model is submitted, traffic report is accepted, the wetland replacement plan is provided, and the scope is verified. So we're saying at this point the record isn't ready, and we want to be you know good neighbors, as I'm sure they do also, but we want a time we want it done right. Yeah. Okay. So and as I said, we're we're uh I think one of the rich last time said some of our townhomes are very close to the flood. Thank you, Mr. Shilling. Like inches. Okay. So that's thank you. Is there anybody else who would like to speak? Do we have anybody online? Okay. If there is no more people, then I will close the open comment period. And I will now call the meeting to order and take roll call. Commissioner Ross. Here. Commissioner Aishan. Here. Commissioner Klein. Here. Commissioner Krull. Here.
